Would not stay here again. The condo smelled like mold, had stains on the walls and floors, worn-out sagging furniture, rusty balcony furniture, and bathroom doors that didn’t even lock. We even found old cookie dough left on a living room shelf.The pool area was run-down, and the staff treated families like they were at boot camp instead of on vacation. For what we paid, this place was a huge disappointment.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations. However, we are disappointed that none of these concerns were brought to our attention during your visit. Had you contacted us regarding the odor, cleanliness, furniture, or bathroom door locks, we would have gladly sent our housekeeping and maintenance teams to investigate and address the issues promptly. Unfortunately, we cannot correct problems we are unaware of. Regarding the pool area, we are surprised by your comments, as this amenity is generally very well-liked by our guests, and we have not previously received complaints about its condition. The resort amenities and staff are managed by the HOA, not by FunQuest Vacation Rentals. While we do not control resort staff or their enforcement of community rules, we would have been happy to bring any concerns to the HOA's attention had we been notified. We take guest satisfaction seriously and always strive to provide a pleasant experience. We only wish you had given us the opportunity to address your concerns while you were here. We hope you were still able to enjoy our beautiful beaches during your visit.

July 4th

Was the worst vacation I've had,sent the wrong codes to check in the room, floors was not clean, took the room from 9 Thursday nite to 10 the next day to cool off. Hot water only lasted a short time, I took mainly cold showers. Was woken up every day around 7 n the morning by large amounts of noise. Not a very family oriented place , smelled pot being smoked when on the balcony, would definitely not come back to this location. Very unsatisfied.

Won’t stay again

The first 24hours in the room were awful. Rom was ready 2 hours early but we literally couldn’t get in until 4:01. The sliding glass door wouldn’t open- was eventually “fixed” enough to open (with some WD40 it appeared), but was still broken and off the track, didn’t close tightly or lock. The floors turned my children’s feet black. The bunk sheets were dirty- they brought new ones that I had to put on myself. 2 nights in a row our room smelled like a skunk (obviously this was out for the control of the owner), it was weed from next door. We often smelled it in the balcony also. Only one main elevator (directly across from the room) worked over half the week. The washer and dryer are new but since they’re front load, they recycle the water and it’s makes clothes smell mildewy. Luckily we had other family and friends condos to spend time at.
