Before
beginning
the
five
star
review
Plaza
Mar
and
of
the
Condo
we
stayed
in
(
#603
),
we
wanted
to
mention
that
we've
had
a
lot
of
experience
worldwide
with
accommodation
over
the
years
and
have
seen
a
variety
of
what
is
available
to
travellers....we
have
had
some
challenges
and
some
delightful
surprises,
but
without
a
doubt,
the
moment
we
walked
into
this
building
and
especially
into
this
beautifully
and
thoughtfully
renovated
condo,
we
knew
we'd
found
our
new
benchmark......WOW.
Quick
note
about
the
ideal
location
of
Plaza
Mar.....
The
beach
and
the
boardwalk
are
literally
"down
the
stairs
and
out
the
door",
as
are
dozens
of
restaurants,
retail
outlets
and
markets.
Anything
we
needed
was
right
at
our
fingertips
-
it
would
be
very
easy
to
stay
several
weeks
in
this
area
without
missing
a
beat
.
Our
first
point
of
contact
at
the
front
desk
was
Jimmy,
who
smoothly
&
professionally
handled
our
check
in,
answered
our
questions
&
helped
us
get
settled..he
is
an
excellent
and
knowledgeable
resource
,
&
he
along
with
the
owner
of
#603
who
was
available
to
meet
us
when
we
arrived
MORE
than
went
the
distance
for
us.
The
owner
showed
us
through
the
entire
condo,
explained
where
all
the
light
switches
were,
walked
us
through
the
available
technology
and
use
of
the
appliances,
took
us
up
to
the
Top
floor
swimming
pool,
offered
to
help
us
find
restaurants
&
activities
&
just
generally
made
sure
we
knew
he
was
available
for
help
throughout
our
stay....there
was
no
question
he
couldn't
answer
and
there
wasn't
a
single
moment
we
felt
that
we
were
bothering
him
.
The
space
is
absolutely
GORGEOUS
and
the
photographs
are
accurate..anyone
who
travels
often
knows
that
the
images
presented
don't
always
match
reality
but
not
so
in
this
case.
Many
things
about
this
condo
are
outstanding..
.
*The
kitchen
is
enormous
(
no
kidding
it
actually
is
)
and
it
has
been
so
well
stocked
with
cooking
equipment
that
travellers
like
us,
who
do
actually
dine
in
have
no
trouble
creating
a
meal.
There
were
spices,
and
oil
and
utensils
and
paper
products
available
to
us
and
so
much
counter
space
that
nothing
had
to
be
left
of
the
floor
or
put
in
another
room.
The
owner
and
his
family
have
put
a
huge
effort
into
making
that
kitchen
"livable"
and
we
were
so
grateful
for
the
conveniences..it
is
bar
none
the
best
we've
ever
had
in
a
rental.
*.
The
bedrooms
and
bathrooms
are
large
and
tastefully
decorated,
with
TONS
of
closet
and
drawer
space.
The
beds
are
comfortable
and
both
bedrooms
have
ceiling
fans..what
a
massive
difference
that
makes
to
restful
sleep.
And
there
has
been
floor
lighting
installed!
How
helpful
is
that
when
you
wake
up
disoriented
in
a
new
place?
*
This
is
a
biggie
to
us....THERE
WERE
CLEARLY
WRITTEN
OUT
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR
USING
THE
WASHER,
DRYER
AND
TV'S.
Not
to
belabour
a
point,
but
when
you've
travelled
as
much
as
we
have
and
have
tried
in
vain
to
operate
an
appliance
you
are
not
accustomed
to,
the
frustration
level
can
skyrocket.
No
such
problem
here,
let
me
tell
you.
Someone
truly
thought
about
the
fact
that
when
guests
are
vacationing.
the
less
hassle
for
them
the
better....
*.
The
last
thing
we
wanted
to
mention
was
the
owner
himself
-
what
an
amazing
host.
He
is
friendly
and
relaxed,
has
a
genuine
interest
in
his
guests,
makes
himself
available
for
assistance
and
goes
out
of
his
way
to
ensure
that
his
renters
have
the
best
experience
possible....case
in
point.
We
had
just
arrived
from
Nuevo
and
realized
we'd
forgotten
an
important
item
at
the
condo
we'd
been
staying
at.
Without
our
even
asking,
he
got
on
his
phone
and
completely
solved
the
issue
for
us,
saving
us
a
ton
of
time
and
worry
and
getting
that
item
back
in
our
hands
that
same
afternoon.
This
is
how
all
hosts
should
treat
their
guests
-
thoughtfully
and
respectfully
since
we
are
all
people
and
we
all
need
help
from
time
to
time.
That
gets
an
A+
from
me.
We
will
absolutely
be
back
to
#603.....the
only
thing
that
will
change
is
next
time
we'll
stay
for
MUCH
LONGER
:-)
