Pluses and Minuses
First, the good news. It would be difficult to find such a great view for this price. We loved the view, spent lots of time outside on the balcony. Though we were directed to use the beach to the left of the property, we actually used the beach to the right, every day, and which felt like our own private beach. The view and the whale show were amazing. Some things to know in advance - the building itself appears to be a former resort, is rundown and shabby. The sidewalks leading up to the building are cracked, exposed rebar. There is evidence of a “reception” and “doctors office” sign where the letters have been chiseled off. The elevator has a smashed mirror and rusty bits. The unit has some promise, with new appliances, what looks like a few recently added furniture pieces. There are also some shabby garage sale quality items that were disappointing. There could be better storage for unpacking clothes, though I was able to make do. I am a terrible housekeeper yet the cleanliness fell short of my standards. For example, dusty bakeware in the oven drawer. The blender required a thorough cleaning. Many dishes and serveware were not clean. Conclusion - husband would stay there again, I would not. Know what you’re in for, and decide if a great view, beach, and location is what you want, overlook the rest.
