Sand Castle II
Even though there was remodeling and construction going on, and we knew it, the property manager kept in touch with us about any issues that would effect our vacation. 10/10 would visit again!

Great location!
Check in was quick and easy. Condo was very clean and well equipped for everything we needed. Very close to the beach! Two elevators for easy access to condo. Great to have grocery carts and carts for moving in and groceries. Great location for restaurants and shopping.

Great potential/Few quirks
Great place to stay with a few minor issues that were kind of annoying. We had several storms that limited our time outdoors. We had one TV that didn't work at all and another TV we had to stream our phone to get anything live. We also had a ceiling fan light that didnt work. The maintenance guy showed up to fix it but left his ladder in the condo so that was in the way the whole week. There was another light fixture in the living room that didn't work and the bathroom light worked intermittently. Once all these bugs get worked out I would recommend staying here.

Great location the beach is awesome!
It is a great place to stay. The view and location was awesome! It had nice accommodations with a dining table and 2 couches. The outside table was nice too, to watch the sunsets. We weren't able to access the WiFi until Tues. am. and we wish the bath towels were a bit larger - couldn't wrap it around you. Just a normal size towels would have been nice. Some of the hand towels looked new because they had the inspection tags on them. Overall, a great vacation for relaxing and hanging at the beach.

Clean, great location; Please note managed by property company and not VRBO
Zero complaints about the property. Clean, well decorated, great beach location, condo building is well maintained. Only issue for me was when I realized after booking that the property is managed by a realty company. This means payments and communication are managed outside of VRBO, which I was not aware of at the time of booking. I was very worried about security of payments and contacted both the realty company and VRBO about this. VRBO should explicitly advertise that the listing will be managed outside of the platform at the time of booking. I had no idea where and how to make the second payment and had to reach out to the realty company for that info. I didn't receive emails and correspondence as needed from the realty company and placed several calls there asking for needed info about check-in, payment, etc. While at the property, dishwasher was broken. Realty company was very quick and responsive to get this addressed and replaced and it was appreciated. We also happened to be checking out a day early. Understandably they were not willing/able to issue any refund for this day. However, I also specifically called and asked about checking in a day early to compensate instead. I was told the unit was full and we could not check in a day early. The unit was not full as we had family staying in the condo next door and were aware it was empty. Overall, great property but clunky, messy communication with the managing realty company.
