Great condo with a rough start

The property was very nice. We enjoyed our stay after we got our parking pass and beach/pool code. We prepaid as directed in order to have the parking and pool codes since we knew we might be running late and the office closed at 4 on Sunday. I texted to be sure it would be available to us and received a message that no, it wouldn’t be, but we that was great because we could pick it up tomorrow. I then called the condos and was told, of course it would be available to us. There was even a sign on the door that it should be in our condo. It was not. My advice would be to get there before the office closes even though you can’t check in until 4pm or you could lose a whole afternoon of enjoying the whole reason you come to the beach-the ocean!

Hidden Fees

We were not advised of the additional cost for wristbands and parking until a week if that till our vacation was to start.Which I feel was ridiculous. Also, it appeared that there were chairs and umbrellas available with the condo, but we were not given that perk, as we have in every other condo we have stayed in over the last 3-4 years. The fee for the chairs and umbrellas were like $80.00 a day which would of cost us $240.00 additional and the fact that you can’t use your own umbrellas is insane.

Not kept up

When we arrive there, we met the lady at the desk. She was not very kind at all, very dismissive of us. When we got up to the condo, there was a dirty bar of soap in the bathroom toward the front. The shower was not even strong enough to get the soap out of our hair. Also, the back of the doors in that bathroom needs painted badly. Drywall, coming apart around the washer and dryer. Washer is rusted out. Would not let us take our sandwiches and snacks to the pool so we did not sit there. We felt the place was very depressing

The property was perfect for our family!

The location was perfect and we loved the beach access and pool area. Loved that the pool area was heated as it was a bit chilly when we were there. It was clean and had TONS of kitchen supplies which I loved as someone who cooks! Also we loved having 2 chairs on the beach already included in our stay! The only thing I could probably is say is that the tv in the main room was going out. So the screen was very blue. We did report it and they sent someone right away but unfortunately couldn’t be replaced immediately. Due to our stay being early in the season the year chair fee had not been taken care of yet and we had to wait a day. They were quick to fix it though! Overall it was a great stay!!

Everything is not what it seem

The property is older and while they are currently renovating, the unit is overpriced for the condition and season. I was charged $10 per person for wristbands for areas of the property that we couldn't access. The gym and pool was closed. There was no security or beach service so I'm not sure was the exact fee was for.
