Jul 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had a wonderful week. We vacation in this area every year. We think this was the first condo we stayed in many years ago. We slept well. The sofa could be updated due to wear, and the hard water is tough on dishes and flatware. Overall, we like the condo and would stay again. The location can’t be beat! ##### Pamela S. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Roger K.

Jul 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Work & Play Worked during the day and took in the beach side in the evening. Definitely didn't read the link sent by the property managers to pack our own Toilet Paper... so that was a shocking discovery... never had that experience. Also never experienced having to rent the bedding and bring my own towels. Aside from that, the house was very clean and the location was wonderful. I'd book this residence again now that I'm spun up on the requirements. ##### Christina M. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maura H. May 22, 2019 #### Wonderful time We really enjoyed our time at the condo. The unit we originally rented was not ready and so they gave us a different unit which was great. Very quick responses to questions and emails. Highly recommend. ##### Maura H. Stayed 3 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gayle K. Aug 22, 2018 #### Great vacation spot We had wonderful time staying at Queens Grant E-215\. The unit is tastefully decorated and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. The views of the ocean and bay are breathtaking and access to beach, pool and bay is quick and easy. The only complaint is the WiFi. It seems that everyone in the building uses the same connection making it extremely slow and at times unusable. Otherwise a perfect stay and we will be back! ##### Gayle K.
