Was pricy compared to other Dawn condos during the low season so not sure why. I felt taken advantage price wise

The Dawn property - Turtle Romance was perfect ! The unit was beautifully decorated and very clean. Loved the pool, and the wonderful ocean view. Staff at the Dawn during the week was so helpful during our stay as we had no car, staff was knowledgeable for directing us to our transportation needs . Would definitely stay there again . The Dawn - turtle romance gets my two thumbs up !!

The location, views, and amenities of this condo were amazing. Large comfortable patio directly across the beach provided hours of relaxing and memorable moments. The inside was almost as \'beachy\' as the outside with the great decor and comfortable furnishing. Suggestions for improvement to make the stay even better include: 1) fixing the loose/broken tile on the floor, 2) cleaning and/or replacing the moldy shower curtain and air vents, 3) adding a privacy lock on the inside of the entrance that cannot be unlocked from the outside, 4) fixing the locks on the patio doors so they actually work, and 5) providing more than 2 rolls of toilet paper for stays longer than 2 days.
