Some apartments do not have views
Although many of the apartments here have Bay views, many do not which means you may spend your holiday looking at a parking lot or overlooking a dumpster.
negative:
There aren't many amenities on site
These apartments are mostly stand-alone units and other than laundry facilities there isn't much to them. You have to walk or take the shuttle to the beach, pools, golf courses, shops and most restaurants.
negative:
Front desk closes early
The front desk here closes early in the evening which could prove inconvenient of you need assistance of any kind.
