My wife and I escaped the cold with my parents for a bit, and we stayed in Manuelâs lovely apartment. First of all, the view is AMAZING. The apartment is on the northeast corner of the building, so one side of the wrap-around balcony looks at the Atlantic, and the other straight up the intracoastal waterway. And thereâs lots of sliding glass doors, so you can open everything up for those lovely ocean breezes.
The beds were comfortable, the kitchen/living room spacious. Iâm not a fan of the ârainâ shower heads, but thatâs just personal preference; most folks seem to like them. The front desk staff was great, very kind and helpful. And the location is right in the thick of things, just across the street from the beach and close to shops, restaurants, whatever youâre looking for.
The only thing Iâd caution folks about is the elevators: they can, on occasion, be slow. We only really had to wait (maybe 7-8 minutes) once, but if you have somewhere to be - a dinner reservation, meeting an Uber, whatever - build a few minutes into your schedule, just in case.
Manuel was a wonderful host. Iâd never used Vrbo before, and he was very patient with my inexperience. He was also extremely responsive to any questions we had while in the place.
Not sure when weâll next get the chance to escape the frozen north, but when we do, weâll certainly remember Manuelâs place.
