Perfect east shore location to easily get around the whole island. The view and sound of the waves from the lanai was incredible. Loved having my coffee out there every morning. The condo was comfortable and exactly as described. Comfy king size bed in the bedroom and everything we needed in the kitchen. Our 14 year old slept on the sofa bed in the living room and said it was comfortable. Luke was a wonderful host. Great recommendations for what to do on the island and a good communicator. Greatly appreciated the chest full of beach items in the lanai chest: snorkel equipment, boogie boards, beach chairs, etc. The washer/dryer in the unit was also super handy. I talked to my Hawai'i-based friends, and they could not believe the price we got on this unit. It almost made me not want to write this review, so we won't have to compete with oth
ers for a future reservation! Ha! But, I couldn't do it. This is too good of a deal not to share. There are several wonderful dining options within walking distance too: Lotus Ramen and Hibachi, Passion Bakery, Russel's Vegan Restaurant, and Napali Brewery. Short drive to Kapa'a Town with tons of shopping and dining options. So many great snorkel spots, hikes, and waterfalls nearby. This condo is not fancy, but it is comfortable and had everything we needed for a delightful vacation in Kauai. Thanks, Luke!

You can’t beat the location of this property. Sitting on our lanai in the morning and evening and watching the waves roll in was so relaxing! The grounds are amazing, as is the pool. The landscaping was beautiful and very well maintained. We had the gorgeous pool to ourselves every evening. The actual unit is a little dated, but it was clean and had everything you could need, including beach towels and snorkel equipment. Lots of little extras that made it very comfortable. The air conditioner died during the night the first night we were there. The owner had a brand new one installed next day - on a Sunday! Communication with the owner was great, very responsive. We would stay here again - and probably will when we bring our next grandchild!

We stayed here for 6 days. Nice condo with a lanai that overlooks the ocean. Beach is with walking distance, but it didn’t seem to be a popular beach. You can drive all over the island from there. 9 minutes from airport. The condo is nice, not brand new, but clean!! New washer and dryer. Enough cookware and dishes. We sat on the lanai a lot. AC is only in bedroom. Ceiling fan and stand fan in LR.

My wife and I celebrated our 30th anniversary at this vacation rental. The location is wonderful. Full ocean view of the bay from the living room and the lanai. We very much enjoyed just watching the water and listening to the ocean every day. It is also very close (walking distance) to several great eateries. Passion Bakery is literally across the street and is so good for breakfast. The brewpub across the highway has excellent Ono fish and chips, and the Coconut Marketplace is an easy walk. The unit itself while perfectly adequate is showing its age. Nothing some fresh paint and TLC wouldn’t fix. The mattress could really use a nice mattress topper, would make a world of difference for comfort. The AC unit in the bedroom worked great but is a bit loud at times. All in all it was a great stay.

Our stay was in April 2024. View from lanai absolutely beautiful. Condition of unit horrible. Carpet very dirty. Had a throw rug over portion of carpet that had a permanent ripple that was a tripping accident waiting to happen. Damaged front door, chunks of wood scratched out. Louvers on screen area of door did not open so could not get cross wind. Old dirty couch so did not use pull out bed. Key to front door did not work so only used keypad. Toilet flushing very slow in refilling & weak. Had to wait 5-7 minutes before next flush could happen. Inside the unit was in very poor condition. Would stay in the complex again, just never unit 111 unless some serious updating/repairs r done.

The view from the lanai was beautiful. Check-in and communication were great. The unit was well-equipped and clean although it's probably time for some upgrades with the living room carpet and the kitchen area. Would definitely stay there again.

I tried communicating with owner about scent allergies. The awful scent of laundry product used would not wash out of sheets and towels after two hot washings with All Free and Clear. The unit location is wonderful with being so close to sound of ocean waves, and nicely furnished and decorated. Except for coffee maker and kettle too dirty to use. I wonder, if I bring all my own sheets, bedspread, towels if I could return???

We loved listening to the waves at night and spotting whales during the day. We only needed the A/C for a couple of nights and it worked well. We loved the central location and also having a washer/dryer/dishwasher in the unit. There are many stores, bakeries, coffee shops, etc. within walking distance. The waves sounded great but there is also some traffic noise during the day mostly. The kitchen/bathroom/living room are about ready for a refresh but we didn't mind. The pillows were kind of wimpy. Everything was clean and we felt safe. The neighbors were friendly and the pool area was nice with two gas grills to use. There was one night when someone was having a fire on the beach and the smoke was blowing directly into our unit all night long so we eventually had to close all the windows and turn on the A/C. Thankfully that only happened once during our 10 night stay. The shower was nice with good water pressure. We would definitely stay here again if the opportunity comes up.

We had a wonderful week long stay. The property is nicely maintained. The owners provided clear directions regarding access to the property. We never heard from the property manager about a car tag, but never had any issues with parking there. Overall, we would go back in a minute! It is in a nice location that is central to the entire island and allowed us to visit all over and come back to the "middle" area so that each day didn't end on an extended drive back. Plus there is a beach there for your own use or if you drive a mile, there is a park with an entire area for swimming for kids and adults which is protected from the ocean waves. Overall, amazing.

This 1st floor condo was a wonderful home away from home for our week long honeymoon! We sat out on the lanai overlooking the ocean every morning. Kitchen was well equipped, although we ate out most meals. Lots of little “extras” included. Quick/easy walking access to quiet beach. Property is private and quiet. Many good local eateries and shopping centers a short drive away. The host was more than accommodating and very responsive the entire process!
Jim G.

Condo was just about as close to the ocean as you can get. Another plus is watching planes take off and land in the distance at Lihue. Kapa'a is a neat little town with lots of good food close at hand. This condo is just steps from a beautiful pool as well. Only negative, a/c is good for bedroom only, but opening up lanai doors and using all fans works pretty well, plus you get the sounds of the ocean as an extra benefit!
Lloyd H.
September 2023
There's a good view of the ocean and the nearly constant sound of the waves crashing. The pool is well maintained. There are good places nearby to eat. The TV and internet work good. The washer and dryer seem brand new. The dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave and stove are relatively new. The bed was not very comfortable. The furniture is older and the sofa is not very comfortable. The bathroom is just okay. The kitchen cabinets need some repair. The carpet is stained in a few places and the rug in the living room needs replacing.

Great central location from pretty much everything on the island. Listing is exactly as described. Owner leaves perfect details on what to do while you’re there for check in and out and even provides great amenities to make life easier at the home and or the beach. The lanai view tops it all off as well as the view from the pool. Will definitely come back and stay.

My family enjoyed our stay. It had what we needed...bed, kitchen, shower. The view from the lanai was incredible. The pool right outside our front door was very convenient. The grounds were immaculate. Mark, the resident host was very attentive, friendly, and kept people in line if needed...quiet hours at pool, no glass around pool, etc. Overall we were pleased.

Very centrally located on the island; easy parking, easy check in process. The unit was clean and had everything we needed. Bed was comfortable enough. For the amount of time you are in your condo, this is more than enough. The best feature is the sunrise with your morning coffee from the balcony. Honestly, can't be beat. Our last morning, we had the most beautiful sunrise. Great place to watch for whales and dolphins as well! Nice easy walk to the Lava Lava Beach Club for fantastic food and mai tais.

Beautiful view but shabby interior. Cheapest of everything. TV remotes problematic. Resent paying for “cleaning” and then asked to partially clean before I leave. Really? Good location for the north side activities but traffic is an issue. “Highway” is a two lane road so plan ahead. Mark , the manager, was helpful.

Sitting on the balcony and enjoying the view, listening to the sound of the waves crash into the rocks below us, had to be one of the best memories of our stay in Kauai. We were able to walk down to the beach and enjoy playing in the beautiful water.
Of course the house had absolutely everything we could have possibly needed, including snorkeling equipment, beach towels, and even a pair of great binoculars!
The bed was huge, and incredibly comfortable. There was even an extra blanket to keep my hubby nice and warm! The property manager was super friendly and very attentive to the property and guests.
The location was perfect as well, and convenient to everything we wanted to do on the island.
The property owner was also very friendly, and went out of his way to be helpful when VRBO was having some system errors with the payment processing of the remainder of our balance.
I would absolutely recommend this stay to anyone wanting both a gorgeous view and the mesmerizing sound of the waves just yards from the balcony.

This place had an amazing ocean view!!! Very clean. It would need a little update but you know what, the view, where it is situated makes this for us an amazing place!!

This is our second visit to Kauai and Wailua Bay. This particular condo is on the ground floor of the building with lovely views of the ocean and far enough from the highway to minimize road noise.
It is an old but well maintained building/pool area and central to popular Island destinations to the north and south.
The condo itself is quite dated and not very well maintained. Laminate flooring is lifting in the bathroom, there are floor depressions in the kitchen and carpeting in the living room is stained. The LR furniture is old with the couch covered with a throw, ottomans in very poor condition, and countertop laminates lifting in several locations.
If you’re looking for a good location with ocean views for a reasonable price and aren’t too concerned about quality, this place offers decent value. We do believe however that some minor housekeeping, maintenance and customer service improvements would go a long way toward improved repeat business. Fixing the drapes and landline phone, cleaning cobwebs, providing decent soap and a few welcoming gifts (I.e. coffee/tea and sugar/creamers for the first morning), cleaning carpeting and fixing the ottomans would be a good start.
Kathy S.
September 2022
The best thing about the property was the view - it was amazing!!! The pictures on vrbo must have been very old because the actual carpet in the living room was very stained and gross. The floor in the bathroom was starting to come up. The condo is in serious need of a few updates. When we arrived the bedroom air conditioner (the only air conditioner) and the refrigerator were not on. It was like we weren't expected. The one air conditioner in the bedroom was not enough to cool the unit and we were there in a heat wave.
Carole S.
September 2022
The views were amazing and enjoyed the central location for exploring the island.
It’ll be better after the noisy and bright road construction that goes on all night is over by October 2022.
The only a/c is in the bedroom so we couldn’t sleep there.
Slept on the rather springy fold our couch in the living room with the room light up from road construction all night.
The beautiful sound of the waves almost over powered the all night road construction noise.
The carpeting, couch and curtains are pretty gross but I use antibacterial wipes allot anyway.
We’re still overall pleased for the price.

This place is a total score if you can get it. We went on to stay at two places that cost twice as much, and this place was the universal favorite of our group. The location is idyllic - literally oceanside. It's easy drive up and out, and the pool is charming and again literally just outside the front door. Everything works, and the kitchen and bathroom were thoughtfully equipped. If you want a place that's truly relaxing where you wake up to the sound of waves crashing on the shore, this was it for us. Bonus point - the complex is small enough that delivery drivers will come right to the door, and there's a fantastic bakery for breakfast just across the street If you like Indian food, try Shivalik Indian nearby.

Wonderful ocean front view condo. Fantastic way to start and end your day with the sounds of the waves. It is a super convenient location. It is pretty much a central location to all of the activities on the island. The keyless entry is a major plus. The kids liked that the pool was open later so they had a chance to swim in the dark after a long day of activities. The kitchen is stocked with every thing you need to cook the fish you caught that day. Also having laundry in room is so much more convenient then just a hotel room. The only thing I would change is the pillows. The owner was great at communicating. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended. Thank you Luke and Kauai for sharing your slice of paradise!!!

The condo was comfortable but the bedding needs an update especially some new pillows.
Nice view of the ocean with nice breeze. Air conditioning unit only in bedroom and very noisey. We were happy with the location and easy checking and the host sent us tips of things to do that were valuable to us. Full kitchen and washer dryer were great. We really enjoyed the beautiful pool. We give it 4 of 5 and price reasonable

March 2022
The best part of this place is the view from the lanai. We loved being able to watch and listen to the surf and surfers. The owner is very responsive: the dryer was out of order when we arrived, someone came over the next day to fix it but had to await arrival of a part -- the joys of living on an island! The only negative is that there is currently nighttime (8 PM to 4 AM) road construction outside, and we are light sleepers. It actually turned into a positive experience because we started sleeping in the living room and were lulled to sleep by the sounds of the ocean. It was one of the best parts of the visit. We would definitely return.
Lee B.
March 2022
We enjoyed our stay. A little too bad their is so much construction on the main road near this property. Hopefully, it can be completed soon. The property needs some updating. I would put on your list when you can, rugs, sliding porch doors. Good parking situation. Pool area nice and clean. The grounds are pretty. Between the construction, the highway and the roosters, it is a little noisy. But the sound of the waves helps that situation. Nice bakery and lunch spot across, the street. You can walk to the small shopping area in about 20 minutes. All in all, highly recommended. Thank you Luke and Kauai.
Becky S.

We had a wonderful stay here! Check in process was very clear and easy. The unit was just as advertised, clean and cozy. Perfect set up to make breakfast and coffee and watch the sunrise from the lanai every morning. Good location so we could go to the north or south side of the island easily. We will definitely stay at one of these units again on our next trip to Kauai! Thank you for the easy process and quick communication and facilitating a wonderful vacation!

There are many options to stay here on the island, but Kappa is central allowing us to only drive a short way to either side of the island.
View was amazing.
We walked two miles every night along to beach path. It doesn’t start right at the condo, but it’s just down the sidewalk then a quick turn right and you’re there✔️
Matthias
December 2021
Check-in was very easy. Communication was good. The location is nice to start tours in either direction across the island. On the patio the ocean is louder than the road nearby, but you'll hear the traffic outside, when trying to sleep in the bedroom. It was quite loud.
The kitchen has lots of equipment and enough space. You'll find detergents for dish washer and washing machine.
We highly appreciated the beach gear, folding chairs and sun umbrella.
The view from the patio is fantastic.
You'll also get a pdf-file with recommended activities, which was quite nice and helpful. (Capt. Andy's Sailing Tour was excellent. Thanks!)
Nevertheless, a more specific advice about the risks of the single recommendations would have been nice, instead of saying "Although Kauai is beautiful, it is also rugged and dangerous." for each one. The hiking trail to Hanakapi'ai Beach will not be a good idea, when there was rain during previous days or if your fitness is not the best, for example.
The description of the condo says that there is an air conditioning, but there is only one, which can cool the bedroom, not the entire condo, which was a little misleading. As well, high speed internet wasn't really fast. Ping was between 250 and 500 ms, all the time.
Most of the furnishings are worn, inside and outside. All lamp shades were very dusty. As well, the inside of the drawers of the cupboard in the bedroom. The Pillows of the bed are not that comfy.
Nevertheless, we had a beautiful stay and recommend this condo. Thank you!

We were very pleased with the condo and the view! Amazing sunrises every morning! Luke was very accommodating and easy to communicate with it. The room was extremely clean and had everything you need. There is AC in the bedroom but we did not need it but is a PLUS if you catch a week where it is really hot! Also having laundry in the unit was a bonus! It was nice that you could walk 5-10 minutes to Coconut Grove shopping center and there is also two public beach access points along that walk.. We would recommend this unit to anyone visiting Kauai and wanted to stay in the Kaapa area!

My wife and I stayed here for 5 nights on our honeymoon in Kaua'i. The hosts were very responsive and sent us helpful welcoming emails to help us get oriented. Self check-in was easy and exactly as explained.
The space itself is a good use of space in a Wailua condo building called Bay View. You can hear the ocean from the bedroom, the main living area and kitchen are clean and spacious, there's in-unit washer and dryer, a Lanai with a view of Wailua Beach Park, and, best of all, tons of free beach equipment and guidebooks to streamline your time there.
The best part of the unit is it's location. If you want to see the whole island or have activities booked everywhere (we had things in Lihue, Waimea, Kapa’a, and the North Shore), Wailua is an ideal base of operations. Hanalei Bay up north is just over an hour away - Waimea on the west side is the same. That makes Kapa’a the best central location on the island, but it often has bad traffic, and Wailua let's you avoid it while giving you the same central location. Lots of great food in nearby Kapa’a too, Wailua Shave Ice is best on the island (islands maybe) and Hukilau Lanai was terrific. Coconut's is a chain but a local one and an unexpected gem.
The pool and beach right nearby are great but you might want to go to other beaches if sunbathing and swimming is the order of the day. Sea level rise has eaten a lot of the sandy part and the wind on the eastern shore can bring rain or driftwood here. For us, we were more than happy to drive around and so this was a great base of operations.

We had an amazing time at Wailua Bay View! It has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The view is excellent (we loved watching the surfers from the lanai!). It’s the PERFECT location for exploring the island, and it is also close to some of the best (and most accessible, especially during COVID) dining. Not to mention it’s a really easy drive to the airport. The pool was lovely and very clean. We would absolutely stay here again! Thanks, Luke, for everything!

Property was nice. View was nice. Dealing with all of the road work traffic while trying to find our way around was " NUTS ", but we took it in stride. Condo was nice, but did some light maint., but over all, we liked it. Great pool. Place was quiet with no brats. My wife and I are in our 70's so that was nice. Overall, GREAT TIME. Would definately come back again:

This place was nice and quiet. The pool was so nice, beautiful tile and landscaping. We had it all to ourselves most days. The people who were in it were usually people who lived here. The unit itself is older and showed some signs of wear but we’re not the type of people who care about that. The only complaint I have is that the pillows were horrible, flat and unsupportive. The location was good although not too many walkable restaurants or beaches to swim. We had to drive most places. Plenty of parking at the complex although we never received our parking pass. But one of the residents reassured us that we wouldn’t get towed because tow trucks don’t like the steep driveway. All in all, we had a good experience and would stay here again.

The condo has an amazing view and is very clean. It is super close to the highway, which can be good and bad. The pool was really nice and clean. We liked the hose for cleaning off feet and shoes. There is only air conditioning in the bedroom and it is very loud, but does cool the bedroom down. The rest of the condo stayed warm.

Perfect spot. We spent 10 days in early December and enjoyed every minute. Our host, Luke, has equipped this beach front unit with everything one could need. He also gave us recommendations and maps for the "must see" attractions, and we did them all. Great snorkeling suggestion ! We highly recommend this spot

My wife and I had a great time at the condo. The view of Wailua Bay was awesome. We had our breakfast every morning on the lanai as we were watching the sunrise. The condo is well stocked, and we had everything needed to cook. We also enjoyed the beach chairs and umbrella on our trips to the beaches. Luke was great to work with. We stayed in Princeville for the first half of our trip and needed a place to store our luggage for the day before checking in to Luke’s. He allowed us to drop off our luggage at his condo at noon that day and we were able to enjoy the day without worrying about keeping everything in the car. The weather was cooler during our stay, so we did not need to use the air conditioner in the bedroom very much. We liked that the condo is centrally located between the north and south sides of the island. We planned our visit to Waimea Canyon and places on the south side of the island while staying at the condo. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay at Luke’s condo and would recommend to others.

What a perfect location for enjoying Kauai! Relax on the lanai overlooking the bay, walk to shops and fine dining, or drive to beautiful sights on other parts of the island. We truly were centrally located here. The on site complex manager is friendly and helpful. Overall, our experience was simply wonderful!
October 2019
Great location - easy parking - very friendly people that own or stay at the condo complex. Balcony looks right out over the ocean - beautiful. Owners were very communicative and send some great tips prior to us arriving.
The price is competitive, but the condo is showing its age and wear. Carpet in living room needs serious cleaning or replacing, and couch definitely has a layer (or two) of suntan lotion embedded in fabric. Overall, we could take the bad with the good, since the price was great and the location was where we wanted to be.

First experience staying on the East side! This is a perfect location for east travel to both north and south shore. This property had everything we needed for a day at the beach I.e,. Chairs, umbrella, snorkel, boards and towels. Beautiful view of the ocean from our balcony. Only minutes from many dining and shopping options. I had a quick question for Luke and replied immediately and chatted on the phone. Overall this was perfect!

Sitting on the lanai drinking coffee and looking at the ocean. What a great way to start the day! Condo has a terrific view of the ocean and was well equipped. We stocked up at Costco and used the kitchen a lot. Condo opens up to let the ocean breezes through and an AC for the bedroom. Nice pool and grill area we used three nights. Good central location. You will need a car to explore the island. Lots of things to do. Luke, the owner, sent us a list of things to do and we used this as our island guide, they were great suggestions. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice condo with a great view of Wailua Bay. Nearby a nice swimming pond and park. Lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance. Fully stocked room with some extras like boogie boards and snorkel gear. Had a great time will be staying again in the future.

This was a very good choice for our stay on Kaua'i. The location was perfect, close to everything, and the view of the ocean was especially wonderful. The amenities were much better than staying in a hotel. With the kitchen, full size refrigerator and a stove to cook, that saved us spending money going out. We did need to clean the floors ourselves, because we respect the no shoes inside, but the floor was kind of gritty to walk on. This seems to be an older property, and the furnishings are well worn, but we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the pool, too.

Super friendly check-in process which quickly made us feel comfortable. We arrived early and our condo was still being cleaned and were invited to use the pool while we waited. The view from the condo was exactly what we hoped for and the beach gear made such a difference in our stay. A HUGE benefit was having A/C in the bedroom!!! We talked to people on one of our excursions who weren't sleeping because they didn't have A/C. There are also ceiling fans in the living area and bedroom which help. The location of the condo is central so exploring the island on our first trip was very easy. Having laundry was also helpful and a must when traveling to Hawaii. The crown molding was also a nice touch :)!

What a convenient and comfortable place to stay! We just got married in Maui and spent a few days in Kauai and loved it. The condo itself was clean and had everything we needed to cook meals if we chose to. The ceiling fans and AC unit in the bedroom were great and kept the condo cool. The view of the beach from our balcony was wonderful! Would definitely stay again.

We had a fabulous time at this beautiful condo. The view was spectacular. We enjoyed the ocean and the clouds in all their beautiful variations and we loved the moon shining on the water. We had every appliance and dish we could want. The bed was comfortable, there were plenty of soft towels and good water pressure. We loved having the washer and dryer in our condo. The pool was steps out our door and it was so clean and comfortable. The location was great, very centrally located. Not only will we be back but we will share this find with all our friends. Thanks Luke!

This is the second time we stayed at one of Luke's properties here. Very clean, comfortable and right on the ocean! The sound of the waves crashing on the shore are with you always, very comforting and relaxing.
Sitting on the lenai drinking a morning coffee watching the whales off shore or the surfers out front, what a way to start your day!
Location is perfect. Walk to farmers market or a couple minute drive to Kapaa to several supermarkets and many restaurants.
We will be staying here again when we come back !!!

We really enjoyed our stay at Wailua Bay View #111. Slightly dated but very clean and comfortable. Luke is a great owner and we would highly recommend his accommodations. He also provided us with several very nice options of things to do, as we are not really ones who like sitting around the pool or beach with a book all day. But if you do, this is the place as many other guest at this complex did lots of that. We would definitely come back to this unit again.

The unit quickly felt like home and offered great advantages such as having breakfast on the very private balcony every morning, with the ocean and surf close enough to really enjoy, I really enjoyed the unit, my sister really enjoyed the pool

This was our first visit to Kauai, and we can't think of a better place to stay than in the Wailua Bay area - very easy to reach every part of the island! We agree with the previous reviewers about the tremendous view from the lanai, well-stocked kitchen for complete cooking convenience, comfortable bed, well-kept grounds and easy walk down a stairway to the beach. It was our home-away-from-home for two weeks... we felt very comfortable there. We think the condo could use updating with all new appliances.

We really enjoyed our four night stay. Luke was great to work with and the on-site staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The process to check in and check out was very easy. The lanai was a great place to watch sunrises and to hang out in the morning and evening. The apartment was clean and all the appliances worked fine. Great location with many restaurants nearby and easy to explore the north and west side of the island from this east side location. There were plenty of parking spaces so parking was not an issue. There was air conditioning in the bedroom but with the cool breezes always flowing through the apartment we never turned it on. Would highly recommend this.

The two reasons to stay at this condo are 1) the beautiful ocean view from the balcony and the 2) the central location of the condo, which makes it easy to visit the different parts of the island. We certainly enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the view of Waileau Bay. As most reviewers have stated, it really is a fantastic view. The condo itself, however, was nothing special and could use some updating. Strangely, we were unable to turn off a ceiling fan, which made the condo quite cool in the morning. Also, the dryer quit working for us. The owner was responsive to our call about these problems. However, he was unable to help us get the fan to turn off as apparently, he has had some ongoing electrical issues with it. The swimming pool is located in the parking area and is smaller than I thought it would be. Unfortunately, my six-year-old daughter found it too cold to swim in. We did enjoy walking along the beach near the condo. The beach chairs/sand toys/boogie boards, etc. were much appreciated. We didn't cook much while we were there but the kitchen appeared to be well stocked.

Great location, easy parking, the condo is clean, well appointed and with a view that doesn't disappoint. The kitchen has more than I ever needed, 2 TV's, beach gear and a washer dryer make this condo an easy choice. The pool and BBQ is extremely clean and usually empty. We had no noise issues and the other renters were friendly.
