"Good - Location was great, liked the composite decking on walkways..facility was well cared for
I stay in places and always like to let owners know about detail things that aren't working that cleaning staff might not see. Need more convenient garbage location,
no hooks outside unit on balcony for towels to dry.
Slide chain on door isn't very secure, needs attention
Need to revisit the #towels in unit. Bathtowels present but not many handtowels or washcloths in bathrooms a d 1 handtowel in kitchen
No pillowcases on 2 of the 4 pillows in twin bedroom and couldn't find any in closets. We used a tshirt to pullover them to cover for our stay
Black fan in closet doesnt work in twin bedroo.
Overall the stay was comfortable"

"I visited in June 2024 for a girls weekend and the condo was exactly what we wanted - right on the beach with views from the balcony and inside the condo, convenient to great restaurants and stores, and comfortable for 4 adults. We were there right after 3 shark attacks and the presence of life guards patrolling on the shore and a helicopter flying over regularly made us more comfortable being on the beach.
We found 2 camping chairs and an umbrella in a closet that were very helpful since not everyone brought beach gear.
Based on a previous review, we brought along a firestick for the TV and I'd highly recommend others do the same.
There was not laundry on site that we could find but it was not a deal breaker for us."

"Amazing views - The staff is very helpful, property is so close to the beach, which was awesome, and the pool was so relaxing. My only regret was that we had to leave a day early, due to an emergency at home."
Stayed August 2023
"We really enjoyed our place we stayed in Condo 711. We took an Uber to everything which was not in walking distance but Ubers were convenient and not pricey at all. We loved the beach and pool. The beach provided one set of chairs but with 4 of us we had to buy another 2 chairs and umbrella which was $49 for the day. (not a bad price to us). The hooks were missing on the outside balcony which we really missed. We had to use the chairs to hang our wet bathing suits and towels at night. The bed was extremely comfy and the view was beautiful. You will need to purchase more toilet paper/paper towels during your stay. We would definitely stay at this location again."

Customer Relations Representative
Regina, We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your vacation. We're glad you loved the beach and the pool.

This is for safety reasons. We look forward to hosting you again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Stayed October 2022
"Pleasant vacation experience - The condo was clean and had everything we needed, and plenty of towels which usually are never enough. The view from the balcony was amazing and it was nice to be able to go to the beach, leave our things to eat in the room, and then head back down again. My only suggestion is that hooks be put up on the balcony to hang up beach towels to dry. I think there used to be something on the balcony but it was taken down and not replaced."
