Condo

The place was decorated cute but needed some repairs and deeper cleaning- dusty & sofa- pillows stained. door knob fell off inside bath, the washing machine made weird sound and blinds were torn up , probably by previous guest with pet. If you come bring everything, very limited things are given. ( 3 coffee pods, a few towels, little shampoo- not much) Bring extra blankets. Example is only 3 pods for 3 days

Great place to stay

We very much enjoyed everything about the property. The only issue we had is that the pool gate code sent in the email was incomplete, but everything else was spot on. We will definitely come back.

Just Another VRBO

Property in rough shape (photos are probably old). Lacked any cleaning supplies (no mop, broom, rags etc). Lacks any condiments (not even salt/pepper). Upstairs ceiling fan blew up when we turned it on, causing circuit breaker to blow. Called management at 10am and maintenance arrived at 4:30pm. Problem was not resolved. Mosquitos are out of control. Town has no redeeming qualities. We will never return.

Cute place with a pool!

This is our second time staying at this property and we Love it! The bathrooms and kitchen are super clean, it’s right on the pool and a short drive to the beach. The decor is really cute! The carpets, upholstery and ceiling fans could really use a deep cleaning.

Little sad 😞

Property could have been cleaned better. The bed sheets and pillows didn’t look like they had been changed. Not enough towels. Couch had potato chips in the cushions. The handrails to the stairs were sticky. Didn’t look like it had been vacuumed or swept.

Great beach townhouse

Great beach townhouse decorated in.beach theme. It's not close to the beach but you can drive to the beach and drive on the beach. Golf carts are not allowed across hwy 361 so having a golf cart was a challenge because we had to leave it across the street at the golf city rental. Pool is fantastic right out the front door . It was a fantastic place to say !

Fantastic Spring Break Get away

The condo is located right next to the 2nd pool. It’s a great location to allow the kids to play in the pool while your in the shade. There was plenty of beds and the kitchen is equipped with pretty much everything you need. I would recommend you bring extra trash bags and dish soap if you plan on using the kitchen. We will definitely stay again, and recommend this condo. Side note, make sure you check your spam account for the rental agreement

Fun Property with a great pool!

We stayed w our 5year old and teenager- and the property was perfect! Short car ride to the beach where you drive and park on the sand. The pool was well maintained with ample seating. The playground was clean and fun. Inside the home was very nicely decorated and had plenty of space for all of us to spread out and relax. Overall a great trip and we would definitely stay here again!

Our family had so much fun! It's close enough to the beach to go back and forth as needed which is a lifesaver with a toddler. Very comfortable place to settle into in the evenings. This is our second time staying here and definitely not the last! I highly recommend staying!

Long weekend!

Renting, check in and ease of reservation was great. The townhouse was not very clean upon arrival. Kitchen supplies are sparce, not enough for the 8 people capacity. Very few pots and pans, utensils and cookware is old. Kitchen needs to be restocked. We were not provided enough washcloths and hand towels in the bathroom, even for 2 people and only 1 kitchen towel. The decor is very cute and the pool is absolutely perfect. Almost like having your own private pool. Overall a good stay and anytime at the beach is good for me.

So fun!

This was the perfect spot for people with kids who swim! Literally the gate opens to your porch. The theme in the main area was so fun to look at and we took pictures in front of the wave mural. It had everything we needed and we all enjoyed our stay!

Review

The property itself was fine. The carpet needs to be replaced and in my opinion should be taken out completely for cleanliness reasons. The fans do not all work and seem to only have one setting on the fans that do work. The property management company is very hard to get a hold and I had multiple text messages from them asking for information I had already submitted.
