Beautiful, large living space with amazing ocean view. Had more than we could have needed from the patio furniture to all the small appliances and dishes. The staff were friendly and extremely helpful. The car we rented was well maintained and a wonderful option to have.

Drift Palm Cove
The apartment was great (location, etc.) but the furniture was all pretty beat up and really needed replaced. There was also construction going on around the pool the entire stay, which was rather inconvenient. Staff were helpful but sparse.
