We had a fantastic stay at Ariel Dunes Tower 1! While the main drive-up is currently a bit bumpy due to ongoing construction, the 'bench side' entrance is a great alternative, and parking across both buildings was a total breeze. The breezeway access was also a lifesaver for unloading our luggage.The unit itself was beautiful and surprisingly close to the beach—much closer than we anticipated! It was spotless, well-stocked, and the kitchen had everything we needed, from stainless appliances to a Keurig. It’s clear the owners take a lot of pride in the space.A small heads-up for future guests: the water pressure in the shower was a bit low, and the iron might need a look (my husband is former military and very particular about his creases!). Despite those small things, we highly recommend this unit. We’d love to return next year, though we’ll be looking for one of the host's pet-friendly options so we don't have to leave our Cavapoo, Moochi, behind again!"

A Perfect Beach Getaway

The condo was clean and decorated beautifully. The balcony Was great because it faced South and never got direct sun. We could sit outside and watch the ocean while staying cool. Beach access was just a short walk away. Check-in was super easy and communication with the property manager was A+. We would definitely stay here again.

Condo with a view

Condo was as advertised. Updated with a great view for the price. Only issue was the powerful smell of “fabuloso” upon arrival but I guess that is the price you pay for cleanliness. Would definitely rent this unit again.

Ariel Dunes I - Seascape Resort - Awesome!

This condo unit at Ariel Dunes I is perfectly situated for a beautiful view of the ocean/beach, pools and landscaping! Queen bed in master is very comfortable! Having a restaurant/bar (Cabana Cafe) for lunch, dinner or just cocktails in the building was great! Food and service was excellent! They even have live music! It was nice to not have to leave the resort and fight traffic just to get a bite to eat or a drink. We highly recommend this condo! No hassles at all, and very relaxing!

Family vacation

The property location was good. Beach view n short walk. Several pools, many places close by. The condo could have been a tad cleaner, no batteries in the AC thermostat. The biggest complaint would be the cooking pans. They are terrible and pretty much non useable. A few tweaks to and the Condo would be perfect. Other than that our vacation was good.

Beachtime

The condo itself was very nice, parking no problem and beach access was very easy. The management company dropped the ball and did not communicate any information prior to our arrival, I finally texted them about an hour before we arrived to get info on check in. All other VRBO owners have sent info to me within a few days of arrival made things a bit stressful and kept us in the loop I felt that they ignored us.

Very Clean

Overall, this condo was the cleanest vacation rental we have ever stayed at. The only drawback (which really wasn't the owner's fault) was that the drains drained slowly in the bathtub and one of the bathroom sinks. A bottle of Drano under the sinks would fix it. Probably some guests did not clean up their hair in the shower. However, the condo was super clean and we'd stay there again!

4/10 Poor

Liked: Communication
Cons: I'll start by saying at first glance the condo looks really good and just like the pictures. Upon further inspection this unit is very dated and I can tell they don't clean thoroughly. Towels and linens were ALL dirty and stained. Pillow cases, sheets, towels, blankets EVERYTHING. There were socks left in the unit from the previous people that stayed. This showed me the unit was not properly cleaned. The sink in the full bathroom wouldn't drain properly and was stopped up. There are old dirty scissors in the kitchen that don't even work. These are all simple things that can be updated and changed quickly. The sofa also had stains and was pretty filthy as well. This place just needs a deep cleaning and would be a great place to come back to. Pros: good distance from the beach. A lot of space. Real Joy sent someone to fix the sink and provide new towels and blankets ASAP. Great communication and timeliness. They had two big pools which were really nice. Had a downstairs cafe for quick bites if hungry. Plenty of parking space. Easy access to your room with a door code. Not too far from restaurants and stores.
