Great for families or couples. Very clean, spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. Our friends who usually stay in hotels called it a palace! They loved the space a condo provides. New outdoor pool and hot tub added to our enjoyment. This was our 2nd stay and I’m sure we’ll be back. We know we can count on Blue Green properties being top Notch! Including older properties like this one.
