From the photos the condo seemed further from the beach than it actually was. It was literally across the street. No water view but cross the street and walk up the block to the beach. Right near all shops and restaurants. I loved that there were beach chairs, umbrella, and towels for the beach. It was also a nice touch that there was soap, shampoo, and conditioner, hair dryer, etc. The kings size bed was a plus. The pull out couch was not the most comfortable but most arent. THe pool was heated which was nice as well. I would recommend highly.
