The condo was very nice! The pool was always dirty and the back to the ocean smelled very bad, the back was where the people that would sell food cooked and I guess that’s where they would also throw away there garbage but it made the back of the property smell bad, and every night a lot of prostitutes would hang around that spot. But the condo was very nice unfortunately it has these problems.

Stay Away from this Apartment Listing It is a Scam
The listing is not forthright. They did not indicate that no guests were allowed. the booking information stated that the unit could accommodate up to seven guests.

Property was exactly as in the pictures. Very responsive and friendly host. A lot of food options around the residence and beach access straight from the building. Every room has its own AC unit and there is a full sized fridge. A supermarket is right on the property so it's the epitome of convenience.
