Dec 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had a wonderful stay at this condo while our home was being remodeled. The complex felt very safe and secure, and it was clear that the neighbors truly know one another—everyone was friendly, welcoming, and respectful, which made it feel like a real community rather than just a place to stay.The workout facility was excellent, with brand-new equipment that was clean and well maintained, and the heated pool was a great bonus. One of the highlights of our stay was spending evenings on the balcony—the sunsets were absolutely incredible and never got old.Overall, this was a comfortable, peaceful, and well-kept place to live, even for an extended stay. We’re very grateful for the experience and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a safe, friendly, and enjoyable place to call home, whether short- or long-term. ##### Niko K.
