Great view and location

The condo is really nice. Typical of island properties it sows some weathering but seems to be well maintained. For our 3-night stay it was perfect. We loved watching the ships move through the channel, and the dolphins! The beach is about ½ mile walk and The Donut Palace even less! Would stay again!

Great Little Condo

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was accurate as pictured in listing. Great for two people. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the ships come and go. The little fishing pier was an added plus for my husband. The only requests would be an added foot stool for the sofa and a little more deep cleaning in the bathroom. Otherwise perfect for us!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was great except the description said it was a queen bed and it was clearly a full size. Therefore it was very uncomfortable for my 6’3” husband and myself.

Third stay in D1

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Staying in D1 for the third time should describe my experience. Love the view and location. Wish I could stay longer than two weeks at a time. The only negativity about the apartment, is that it is starting to show its age. Some updates would be nice. I'm ready to book for next trip.

Condo needs a refresh !

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo needs a bedding change. The mattress and pillows are well worn and need replacing. It would also be nice if they provided two towels instead of one per person. The bathroom lavatory did not have a sink stopper.
