Location was nice, beach was great. Pest control guy had code to room and let himself in unannounced. Room was a little on the dirty side. Elevator didn’t work during check-in or check out, so there was a lot carrying up and down the stairs.

This was the perfect place for a family vacation! We stayed for 6 days and really enjoyed this place! The view from the balcony is perfect and not as obstructed by the trees as the pictures show. Had a very clear view of the ocean. The condo was very clean and well stocked. The only problem we encountered was the balcony door not locking but bender realty (the owners) is right across the street and very helpful. Someone was sent out that day to fix it. Also worth adding, the water is extremely close to the condo. My mother has bad knees and the water being so close was a relief for her. The bridge over the dunes is very short and it’s only a few steps from there to the water. The balcony is spacious and the sounds of the ocean are loud and clear. I’ve stayed at many condos up and down the coast and this was one of the most peaceful relaxing stays I’ve ever had. 10/10 recommend. And much thanks to Bender Realty for being so helpful and responsive the entire stay.

Great time on the beach

We had a wonderful getaway from the cold weather in Michigan. We enjoyed everything about the condo. It was very clean and a great location. The only downfall would be the quality of the bed. Everything else was perfect.
