The condo was clean and well maintained. Everyone (kids and adults) had an amazing time. The views are spectacular, and its a short walk through the pool to the beach/ocean front! There is a pier/board walk right down the way (within walking distance, but we drove) that also offers fishing, restaurants, and shopping. We would love to stay again in the future.
We loved this condo. It was clean, had a great view and the communication with the property management is amazing. The area of the beach the condo overlooked is amazing. Thank you.
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was a great location. Our only issues were the king room was warmer than the other rooms and we were only given 1 trash bag for the kitchen. They had an extra small fan in a closet so we could use it to help. We would definitely visit this condo again. Even our teenagers enjoyed being here.
ty. Was very clean and 7th floor view was very good. Only issue was chair service wasn’t included even though that is how it was advertised

Pictures can be deceiving
Pictures appear nice bright and clean while in person it is really dark and dingy. It had a smell of bugs as soon as I walked in. The air filter had been changed but the evaporator coil is dirty. The master bedroom gets no air flow it was so hot and uncomfortable. I found 1 dead roach in kitchen there and found another dead one in my beach towel when I got back home.They have tried to spruce it up with newer furniture, new refrigerator, and flooring. Everything else is dirty 1980 originals. The linens were clean.The pool area seemed clean and the beach was very clean and beautiful water. I would not stay at this property again.
Nice and spacious, great location and the view was good. We liked sitting on the balcony looking at the ocean. Also, the distance to local restaurants, Coffee and donuts was great.
I have stayed at this complex before, but it was my first time experiencing RealJoy. Everything about this listing was great! I would book with them again.
Enjoyed our stay very much. Relaxed atmosphere without any stress for 10 days. There were a few repairs that should of been fixed before we arrived and the carpet in both bedrooms was very dirty.

Our stay here was perfect. There was 6 of us staying here with a 1 year old, 5 year old , and 4 adults and the condo was perfect for us. Very spacious and even had a bed that pulled out from the couch that was perfect for the kids to sleep on. The view from the balcony was great and the location was perfect with multiple restaurants less then a mile down the road. Would recommend this place to everyone and would definitely stay again.
