The beach view was absolutely prime. Better than pictured, especially the bedroom pic. They understate the view for sure. Kids could run out on the sand while I kept an eye on them from the balcony or shore level loungers. Beach does have mild undertow at certain times that would concern me for very small children, but it was not a problem for my light-weight 10 year old. Plus the lifeguards are very vigilant about conditions. The property itself was perfect. Everything as described, more kitchen utensils than expected, spotlessly clean, smelled good. Some of the dining chairs are a little worn but seriously, I'm stretching to think of something that wasn't ideal. Hot tub is Super hot (in a good way) and showers had hot water and good pressure (very valuable after the cold ocean!) Perfect for teens and big kids. I would say I wouldn't want to stay with toddlers as it would be hard to safety gate the doors- they are swinging or sliding glass and top of the stairs doesn't have a good way to block it off. But in that case, stay on the lower floor and you'll be fine. I would absolutely stay here again.
