This place was absolutely fantastic. The location couldn’t have been better — close to everything but still very quiet and peaceful, which made it easy to relax after a long day out. The views were incredible and the extra privacy made it feel even more special. The air conditioning worked perfectly. Everything functioned exactly as it should. The host was quick to respond and extremely helpful throughout the stay.

This is by far one of the best condos we have stayed at. Interior design is crazy, very nice decoration and layout. Great location with parking available in front of the condo.

Did not use pool or laundry . The only negative which was a major issue was the excessive noise from a dog barking in one of the rooms. This occurred late at night and made it impossible to for me to sleep well, for 3 of the nights during my stay. Otherwise I had no complaints, but would not stay again due to the possible issue of dogs barking late at night.

The apartment was gorgeous and had a well-equipped kitchen. The shower had excellent water pressure and temperature, super comfy bed and strong wifi. The rooftop was a nice place to chill and the sunset view from there is unbelievable . Personally, we really liked the location; there are a lot of good restaurants nearby and a small convenience store just across the street, would definitely recommend.

Very clean, well taken care of. New modern space with full kitchenette that was equipped with everything we needed. Communication was good and requests were responded to quickly. Location is conveniently located in walking distance to the epic 5th ave, Lots of restaurants and convenience stores and about a 15 min walk to the beach. It should be noted that this condo is in a neighborhood under development with condos but it is surrounded by lower class, rougher resident housing. However at no time did we feel unsafe.
