Pros:

Beach, pool tables/chairs and room were perfect. Although we prefer better quality pillows, but we'll bring our own next time.

Cons:

Everything was great with the exception of the new sliding glass door. It was very difficult to open/close.... even my 205 lb husband had to use all of his weight to close it. Maintenance fixed it one day, but I think whomever put it in didn't align it or something correctly. We'll be back for ure though!!!
