Ample space for 13\. We had 11 and it was enough room for everyone and then some. It will be tough to stay in normal units now. Every little thing was taken care of also. If you forgot something, they had it, complementary. We were using it to reunite with our family we had not seen in 15 years. It was the perfect property for this as we were all together in the same condo but still gave tons of privacy while staying in the in the same unit.It was by far the nicest condo any of us had ever stayed in.The pictures online do not do it justice. It is way way way nicer than the photos, you just have to see in person. ##### charles e. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Connie P.
