Jul 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place to stay with friendly staff We stayed in Building 5 and the condo was awesome. Our only issue was the long walk to beach so if you’re going with an older family member you might want to stay in a different building. However we would recommend the condo and Elmatador!! Great vacation and wonderful memories. ##### Dianne F. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Lisa S.

The shower leaked all over the floor and vanity and the toilet was a bit strange and loud. Otherwise our stay was enjoyable. ##### Lisa S.
