Lets start with the positive. The location is amazing, with easy access to the waterfront walkway. The service from Bernie and the cleaning team was great. Unfortunately the unit itself let the rating down. It was very tired looking, with stained carpet and marked walls in dire need of a repaint. The furniture was also worn and needed replacement. If you stay here, avoid unit 9 and head for the lake front units which look to be in much better condition. I would go back, but wouldnt stay in that unit.

Our suite was very spacious and room for the 4 of us with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The kitchen and bathrooms were very modern and all was very clean. The pool was nice and the boardwalk was right in front of the property. It was a short drive to town so very convenient.

Was only given two towels the second night and two pool towels even though there was 3 of us. The cleaners left a bag of rubbish outside the door from them cleaning that day.
