Just so what a vacation should be!
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: Loved the layout! We try hard to stay at Martinique yearly. Now that our children are older, they are allowed to bring friends. This house is laid out so well with a private master suite, as well as, a third bathroom on the main floor so the kids did not have to go upstairs and/or use our private master suite bath. We had everything we needed for an enjoyable, relaxing

Fall Break 22
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed at the Martinique for over a decade. We have rented many different units on the property. We absolutely love the location and atmosphere. This unit was the worst of our experiences. The beds were uncomfortable and missing slats. The carpet is in poor condition. The vent in the dining room had what appeared to be mold around it. There was a terrible odor coming the kitchen sink. Also, the mirror in the dining room was broken and glued together. The staff and maintenance were wonderful and addressed our concerns to the best of their abilities. For the price we paid (not cheap), we were very disappointed in the condition of the unit. We will stay at the Martinique again, but would not rent this unit again.

The screened in porch was spacious and we saw lots of frogs and lizards.

Nice resort
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: This was our first time to the area and I was concerned about being to far away from Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, but we enjoyed the resort so much we spent most of our time there at the beach. When we did go out it was a easy drive to everything.
