El Constante 224

El C was wonderful, as always. We've been going for years (different units). The office managers could not have been nicer. Only downside is limited outlets for lamps, TVs, phone chargers, etc., so bring your own plug extenders.

This is a decent unit. Not as updated as some, but we chose it because it allowed us to bring our small dog. It had a very strong smell when we arrived, like air freshener or Carpet Fresh. The upstairs bathroom in the master bedroom smelled like cigarettes, so perhaps they were trying to conceal the odor? Aside from that, the unit was pretty comfortable and well equipped. We had most everything we needed to cook there, although it was missing a large frying pan. When we contacted the office, they sent someone to get us one and delivered a brand new one, which was really nice. The front office staff are very friendly and helpful.

Unit quite unattractive, we've stayed in much nicer units on the beach.
Unit pictured a fireplace, not there. Master bath tub hardly drained and shower head very high and couldn't adjust. No fan in 2nd bath. Living rm. sparse, uncomfortable furniture, poor lighting. Poor quality washcloths & hand towels.
Slider to deck off L.R barely moveable. Kitchen was well equipped.
Certainly needs hooks for coats on main floor.
Would not book this unit again.
Enjoyed the aquarium and botanical garden, as well as the shrimp at Snoopys

El Constante is a really great place to stay especially if you have a pet and especially in the fall and winter because of the excellent location and access to the beach both by walking and by driving to jetties or to park on beach. It is a beautiful area of the beach with a delightful boardwalk for walking and biking. Customer service is really over the top. The office people are very nice and online services are very efficient and attentive. I highly recommend staying at this pet friendly location

Decided to stay here based on some reviews. Stayed two nights with family from Colorado. The description of the condo said it was a 2 bd, 2.5 baths with a queen sleeper in the living room. Turns out there wasn't a sleeper sofa when I called the office they said they would send up an air mattress which was fine but they could have at least offered a discount for the false advertising.

The unit was not very clean, the sofa and chair that were in the living room smelled old and musty. We had 2 small children running around barefoot and their feet were black with dirt from the floor. The cleaning crew needs to spend more time cleaning.

The location and views are great, the pool was nice but I noticed an oily film on top of the water and it didn't look very clean.

I understand these condos are old and they are trying to fix it up, but at least have someone walk around outside and pick up the trash.
