Perfect location, clean unit!

We enjoyed our stay at La Playita. It is a two minute walk to public beach, Publix a block away to stock up and restaurants galore. We had quite an age and ability range and all had fun. Would highly recommend!

Perfect Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I really enjoyed the layout of the condo, and the location was absolutely perfect. It's so easy to walk everywhere and then catch the trolley for longer distances. The condo was very clean, and we had no issues. The basement room is super nice and offers a third full bathroom and huge TV. I would definitely stay here again, and I thought Island Vacation Properties did a great job. They are friendly and very helpful.

Great location

Near beach, restaurants and grocery store. We enjoyed walks on the beach, sunset cruise and friendly neighborhoods. The unit does have tall stairs so make sure you are capable of carrying your suitcase and climbing stairs. There is also a great pool.

Put a roof on during our stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Enjoyable. But we were moved from the property we contracted for to La Playita, which was next to a construction site that we were not informed about. Then they put on a new roof on La Playita while we were there, hammering just above our heads. Owner of Island Vacation Properties gave us $100 gift certificate for the trouble: would rather had been somewhere else.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of this unit was the best place we have stayed in all our years of visiting the island! Less than a 5 minute walk to groceries, shopping, dining and the beach! Yet still in a quiet area. A clean and mostly updated property. I believe the improvements are ongoing for this particular unit as well so it will be exciting to see at our next visit!!!

Very Pleasant Place to Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: LaPlayta 7 was a very nice and clean place to stay. It was centrally located near grocery store-dollar store-Dunkin’ Donuts and Skinny’s. We had a very nice week the only incident was a leak in the ceiling in kitchen possibly from the bathtub upstairs or the air conditioner-I’m assuming it was the tub!. Also the air conditioner could have been cooler at night-which was on a set temperature....

Amazing place to stay!

We stayed in this unit for our 2 week vacation and it was incredible. We didn’t want to leave. We would definitely stay in this unit again. It was clean, cozy, inviting, and nice. The pool was amazing - right outside the door and we were the only ones using it the entire 2 weeks. The place felt private but was so close to everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better location. An extremely short walk to the beach and Publix, and a short drive to each end of the island. My one and only complaint is the beds were so hard. They were not comfortable at all. But that would not keep me from staying here again, that’s how much we enjoyed it. The rec room was a nice added bonus as well. We enjoyed having that to store all the beach toys.
