Great condo!

I'm sure we'll be back to this property. It is very clean and had everything you we needed (minus a sharp knife for chopping!). It's a quiet location and we felt very safe. Easy parking, loading, unloading and close to shopping and grocery. Great access to the beach and the pool has a lot of chairs.

Great condo, great location

Everything was great in regards to the room & the area of town. Love how close to the beach we were. We were also pretty central to all restaurants and malls/activities. So many options within a 10 min drive. The only downfall of our trip would be the limited parking at the resort and the building only had one working elevator. Luckily we were only on the 5th floor so we took the stairs most of the time.

Overall great stay but some concerns.

The property was really cute and spacious and the view was magnificent! We really had a relaxing get away. I would definitely recommend to others and stay again. 1. Access code to the unit was changed and I was not notified. Had to call late at night to gain access. 2. Maintenance man showed up unannounced to repair hole in wall behind washer. He had no id and no shoes on. 3. Master BR window is broken and I almost injured my fingers trying to close it all of the way.

When I arrived and opened the front door there was a very strong smell of cigarette smoke. I contacted the agency and they sent maintenance over with spray and a humidifier. I was told the previous guests also complained about the smoke. This happened for 2 days trying to cover up and/or mask the horrible smell. After day 3, I gave up. It was ruining my stay. The cigarette smell is embedded in the furniture and rug. It was so bad it affected my sinuses.The master bedroom AC does not cool off the room and the ceiling fan only has one speed. The agency did send a portable fan over and it did help some but it was not comfortable at night. If you want to sleep in, There is no room darkening shades in master. I did not attempt to open the sliding door from master so I’m not sure if it works.The front door does not stay closed properly if it is not locked. Kitchen dishes and pans and utensils had dried up food on them and we had to clean before using. No soap dish in bath #2. Entrance mat at front door is dirty with lint stuck on it. The vents need cleaning. Sliding glass door had prints on it. Garbage disposal had food in it. When opened sofa bed, a dirty sheet was still on. The quick response from ocean reef was excellent although they could not remedy the issue. I do feel it was overpriced for what I received. The written directions to get there were a 10!The location and ease to get to the beach was a 10! The view was a 10!

Overall nice place to stay

When we first arrived, the door to our unit was wide open. Unfortunately, had to get rid of some bugs that made it into the unit. I did check everything to make sure no other uninvited guests made it in. The deadbolt does not engage although the sling lock did. All of the dishes were still in the dishwasher leaving it up to us to unload. The master bedroom tv did not work. We did have someone come the next day to replace communication cords and got it back up and working but left the old cords and a tape measure on the counter. The master bedroom ceiling fan would not change speeds so we could not turn it up to high. We bought a tower fan that helped in the evening with airflow. Besides the mentioned, the rest of the trip was good. Easy access to the beach. Location is nice to not be in the middle of town but access to everything that one would need. Shopping, restaurants, etc..

This condo was okay. I probably wouldn’t stay here again. Was told before we booked we could bring our own tent to the beach then got to the beach & was told we were NOT allowed to have our own tent so had to end up paying 100 per day for enough chairs & umbrellas to accommodate my family. Reached out to the owner about this & got no response. The a/c unit didn’t work very well in the condo so it got hot and stuffy at night. There was mold spores on the ceiling in the master bathroom. The WiFi didn’t work majority of the time so I had to hot spot my devices. Was a nice location though.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you appreciated the location, but we’re very sorry to learn that several aspects of your stay did not meet expectations. We understand how frustrating it must have been to receive conflicting information regarding beach setup rules and then incur unexpected costs. We also apologize that you did not receive a timely response regarding this concern. That is not the level of communication we aim to provide. In addition, we take your comments about the A/C performance, cleanliness concerns in the master bathroom, and WiFi reliability very seriously. These issues have been shared with our maintenance and housekeeping teams for immediate review and follow-up, as they do not reflect the standards we strive to maintain. We appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us identify where improvements are needed. Thank you again for staying with us and sharing your experience.
