Oceanfront Condo 410 by Sterling Sands

The property charges extra ($15/ person) for access to basic amenities like the pool, fitness center, and beach access. They never indicate this in the listing. Likewise, they charge $60 plus tax for a 3-hour later checkout (noon instead of 9am), and in season, require that the request be made 5 days in advance, but this is not mentioned anywhere. The condo itself had an ocean view (lovely!) but was also dated and not in particularly great condition (peeling paint and ceiling popcorn in the bathroom, major stains on balcony chairs..). One of the most troubling things was they require a credit card on file for “damages”, and don’t tell you this until the day of your arrival. So a few hours before check in, you get a text that your access code has been deactivated pending a call to their customer service line. If you’re traveling, you might not even see the message until you get there.

The property was clean, the view was also nice and the staff were friendly however I’m not sure what I got for my resort fee, since we had to pay for a mandatory wristband, pay to park and pay for chairs and umbrellas (not allowed to bring your own). Then instructed to take all trash out and start the dishwasher. Also the door code works at 4:00, not 3:55. Save your money and get a hotel.

Hotel building was directly on beach with private access to the beach. Had a nice pool and fitness center also. We must've come on the week they we getting everything reset for summer. They were testing fire alarms, replacing filters in units, and there was construction happening that closed one of the elevators and part of the parking lot. Pulling into parking take some patience's as you have to u-turn at the light to turn in. Conveniently located to food, shopping, and entertainment. In unit washer is great to leave with clean clothes.

Terrible communication with host. I’m currently

The view was beautiful
