Beautiful condo that was pet friendly, well stocked kitchen, plenty of room and balcony with beach view/relaxing. In a quiet neighborhood that did have plenty of people out and about jogging, walking. Close walk to beach access.

The location was perfect! 1 block from the beach, and the beach was beautiful! The place was spacious, quiet and very clean. It had a well appointed kitchen as well as a comfortable living room. The bedrooms were just the right size. The best bedroom was the master with a bathroom to die for. We would definitely come back to the same place and recommend it to our friends and family.

Great place! Great location. Only downside was the noise from the upstairs guest. Host was very quick to respond when when we had an issue with the AC. It was serviced and back up and running in less than 2 hours.

Everything was excellent. Our only complaint is this: We stayed on the second floor. We could footsteps from the third floor very plainly. There needs to be a sound barrier between floors.

Location 10/10 - super short walk to the beach. Safe neighborhood. Free trolley runs every 20 minutes most of the day.House 8/10- we were unlucky with 2 different groups of guests that stayed in the unit above us. Simply walking back-and-forth was very loud and kept us up at night. The listing said there was a grill, but there was no grill. We double checked with the office & were told that was a generic listing & that our unit did not have a grill. This was a factor when choosing the house, so this was disappointing.Communication 5/10 - We checked in after hours on a Sunday and didn’t receive our check-in code on time. After leaving a message at 4pm with no response, we had to call again hours later to finally reach someone. We happened to be on a flight during this, which made the lack of communication especially stressful, since we thought we would have to find alternative accommodations and everything around us was sold out.We also reached out multiple times to clarify the number of beds in the 3rd bedroom due to conflicting listing information, but didn’t hear back until one week before check-in. There are indeed 2 twin beds in the 3rd bedroom. We would come back to the area but not this rental.

Thank you for the feedback. Instructions are sent out automatically and sometimes show up in junk/spam. We were able to help you out right away once you reached out to our after hours emergency line. The association made it a new rule that grills are not allowed there. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you.

too much construction on the house we stayed in they are still repairing from the hurricane last year. then the toilets were hard to flush, u have to hold your hand on lever for 15 to 20 seconds for them to flush.next door they started putting on a new roof on a house. we have an infant that her naps were interrupted during the day which made for a miserable nights rest. i reported to maintenance text line but have not heard back

We are sorry to hear that you had issues during your stay. We did respond to you and told you we were sorry to hear of the construction and that it was out of control. They were scheduled to be done a week or so before you checked in and we were not informed they were going over their scheduled time. Thank you SO MUCH for this amazing review!!
