This place was beautiful! So close to downtown that we walked down and love that itโs right by the water. The place was exactly like the pictures and super clean. We will definitely be looking at staying here again!
Gorgeous condo! Great view. Loved the comfy robes. Walking distance to beach and yummy restaurants! Parking was a little tight and when one car parks crooked itโs hard to fit the rest of the cars. Would stay here again!
Very nice place. The unit was very clean. It would have been nice to at least have salt & pepper there. Bring everything if you stay here.Parking was VERY narrow. Some toad noise from US-31 but they did offer ear plugs.
The property was beautiful, clean and centrally located. Easy to get to downtown, the peninsula's and south towards the mall and Meijer. Will book again. Thank you!
