The condo was just as described, very clean and comfortable. The condo was well stocked with blender, coffee makers, toaster oven, lovely purified water dispensing fridge. Staff was great, maid service was very good. Location was perfect if you want to be in the heart of things. Bars, restaurants, mall, all very short walking distance.
The view from the condo was fantastic-beautiful white sand beach and the beautiful blue Caribbean Sea--all just a few steps away.

My husband, mother and I stayed in this studio condo for ten nights in July. The outstanding features of this vacation rental were:
-beachfront location: just steps onto the white sandy beach with gorgeous turquoise water.
-proximity to shopping and entertainment. There were convenience stores, artisan shops, restaurants, ATM, currency exchange, and Internet cafe right outside the condo entrance.
-swimming pool: small but functional and used by many of the guests since the ocean tends to be a little rough.
-poolside cafe: great for snacks, very reasonably priced, family-owned

Features we liked in the condo unit were:
-water cooler base (we purchased a bottle for $5 and it lasted the whole week)
-wall mounted TV with 17 channels
-countertop oven
-full size fridge and freezer

The front desk staff and security were excellent and personal. This is a small building and we felt very safe.

We stayed in a unit that was on the Mezzanine. Although the music from the clubs was audible in the hallway, it was greatly diminished once we were in our rooms, and the fan and the a/c provided some white noise that nearly eliminated it. Daytime music could be loud on the beach, but again, we weren't disturbed by it.

This studio unit is best for 2-3 people. There is no dresser or storage space in the sleeping area or bathroom, so you have to be very organized and don't have privacy for your personal items, underwear, etc. Plan on bringing your own handsoap, shampoo, and dish soap. The condo provides very small soaps for the shower--you're better off bringing your own.

We took the bus to downtown for groceries and day trips. While there is parking in front, a car is probably more of a liability than a help unless you are planning to be day tripping daily.

FYI--this beach is not for snorkeling. The surf is too rough. There is an area on the beach near Hyatt and Dreams (very short walk/swim) that is more protected from the waves, but it didn't have much in the way of fish.

Overall, this condo was a very good price for the beachfront location. I would consider it for future trips.

Had the pleasure of staying at this condo and cannot wait to go back! The location is absolutely fantastic, you are right next to the forum and withing easy walking distance to the clubs and restaurants. The staff was very helpful and the condo was clean and well equipped, a true little gem. Booking and responses from Bill was always timely and helpful. I would recommend booking your tours when you get there, I booked some of my tours from the guy at the front of the condo and he gave me really good prices. The buses run right in front the condo so its easy to hop on and hop off. The only thing I wish I had - more time!!! I was there for 6 days and had an absolute blast. I would really recommend this spot. If you're not into the all-inclusive, taking too much time wandering around a massive resort, want a fabulous location to enjoy your vacation I would recommend here. you won't regret it!
