The Space:
Welcome to our seaview condo with all the comforts of home and a warm ambiance as the sun seeps in daily from the sliding glass doors of the open living area. Step out onto the covered, seaview patio with patio furniture and enjoy the sea breeze and tropical landscape of the exclusive Bahia Mar resort. You’ll also find resort-style amenities for the whole family to enjoy.

Plus, extras like a Keurig coffee machine, blender, toaster oven, and dishwasher! There’s a convenient breakfast bar with four bar stools for a quick snack, coffee, or to work on your laptop if needed.

When you want a more relaxing sit-down meal, there’s the dining area, where you’ll find a table that comfortably seats six. The living room area features a plush sofa facing the Smart TV with cable.

Great location

I would give it 3 1/2 stars. Overall my family had fun and this condo is in a great location. The grounds and pool were very nice but the condo itself was dated and run down. Rug and couches had stains and lots of wear and tear throughout.

Close to beach, but needs maintenance

I booked this property to spend time with my granddaughter- so the playground in the pics was a big selling point. The playground was under construction and not available. When we arrived, the back sliding door was unlocked w/o the wood block, so anyone could have entered w/o keys. The property refrigerator was not working properly & there was black mold in the freezer. The blinds were missing on the round window & had broken slats on another window at eye level. As women staying alone on the ground floor, this made us feel really exposed. The people on the floor above us made noise all night long. The ceiling fan was wobbly/loud, so I couldn’t use it. The rug was stained badly & the couch has had animals on it, causing my pet allergies to get bad anytime I sat down on the furniture. The outdoor furniture was torn up & HUGE rats were on the back porch at night. The proximity to the beach was great. I was very disappointed with the price I paid for the property based on the reasons above.
