Ideal Location and Amenities

Pleasure Island Place exceeded our expectations. The location is great, just a block from the beach and not far from the pier. The condo had everything we needed: kitchen, TV, and comfortable beds. We appreciated that the place was dog-friendly, so we could bring our dog. We'll definitely be back!

We had a fantastic stay at Pleasure Island Place! The condo was spotless and had everything we needed. The king room was super comfortable, and we loved having our morning coffee on the deck with ocean views. The beach access was just a short walk away. We'd like to come back during warmer weather so we can enjoy the pool. Highly recommend for a relaxing beach getaway!

Overall, our family of 4 (plus mini poodle) enjoyed our stay. This apartment was clean, close to the beach, and a close drive to lots of good restaurants. The view off the front porch was really nice, especially in the morning. The absolute minimum provisions were available at check-in, including 1 roll of toilet paper (to be shared between 2 bathrooms?). You should definitely bring your own everything when you stay here. This rental was a bit more than shabby chic - with well worn towels, shower curtains, and sliding glass window curtains. The dustpan for the broom was warped and made it difficult to sweep to keep the sand out. With some maintenance and a refresh, I could give this rental 5 stars.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 August 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the cleanliness, location, and view from the porch. For clarity, we only advertise and provide a starter kit of supplies, which is also noted in our listing and pre-arrival emails so guests know to bring additional items if needed. We provide one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, so I apologize if you did not receive both. We would have been happy to bring more if it had been mentioned during your stay. We will also review your comments on the linens, curtains, and dustpan with our team so improvements can be made. We appreciate your input and are happy your family had a nice stay overall. Thanks for trippin’ with iTrip!
