Great room

The room was very clean and everything was so close by. I love how the pool was literally right outside our patio area, which was very convenient. I highly recommend this place.

Nice Condo in a pretty Resortlike Surrounding

The condo's amenities leave nothing to be desired. Terrace is right next to the pool/jacuzzi. Loungers at the pool are screwed down. But that's not a problem because there are always some free. Gardens maintained. This was our second time in this condo.

Quaint and well organized

Easy access on bottom floor of a condo complex. Outside and inside well maintained. Access to 2 pools and gate to walk across street to beach. No beach view but pool view was nice. No TV in master which was fine with us but some like that. Also, not a compliant but suggest putting a blackout curtain in master as the flood light for the apartment is right above the window and shines in during the night and is distracting if not sleeping well. Overall the place is very nice, well updated, well maintained and we had all we needed.

Host not responsive. Nice place though.

I will start by saying the condo was clean and the bed was super comfortable. I am a bit disappointed because I tried to message the owner on the vrbo app weeks ago and did not reconvene a response. I even emailed the morning of our stay to confirm the condos number as the email didn’t have it in the body, but apparently the subject number was it. In my opinion, if you have a condo and you know people are staying in it, it would be good to check the messages there and on your email especially the day of. I was able to look back at the evolve email to find the condo number. I never did find the time that the office closes-it was asked in my email. It’s 5 pm for those who are wondering. Plus the picture of the two couches is not accurate anymore. There is only one couch and a chair. It said that it was say fully equipped, but it should be noted that there is no coffee, you have to bring your own. I was a little disappointed waking up to find that. Additionally, I need to add that for all the fees-cleaning and damage fee (we should get this back since nothing was damaged), I shouldn’t have to strip the bed and take the trash to the dumpster when there is a hefty cleaning fee. I will not be staying here or any other properties that they own.

4 day Weekend getaway

The condo was clean when we arrived. The shower curtain needed replacing and they promptly did so. Great size and comfortable bed. The linens were plenty. It’s a very cute place and very secure. Close to Babe’s beach and parking was great. The couch does need replacing though. We were sitting on cushions on top of what felt like a sofa sleeper without the mattress. That was the only uncomfortable thing. We loved the pool. We would stay again if the couch is replaced.

The condo was perfect for my wife, son and I. It was super clean, I could tell that the owner puts a lot of work in maintaining the condo. It was just a short walk across the street from the beach and minutes away from all attractions. We had a great time and I would definitely stay there again.

Expected a little more

Pros of the unit: The photos on the listing are a good representation of the layout of this unit. The bedroom was a generous size with a large walkin closet and comfortable king size bed. The bath can be accessed from the main living area or the bedroom. Cons of the unit: It definitely could use a new coat of paint throughout. There are no screens so opening the windows for fresh air is not an option. We had to contact the management company to clean the back patio/porch because it was filthy. The kitchen had been updated but the cookware had not been and was sparse at that. The living room couch is past its useful life and should probably be replaced......very uncomfortable.

Lots of potential

We had a great time...the room was spotless! Felt very clean and cozy. The location couldn't be better. Across the street from Wal-Mart, close to Sonic, steps to the beach, and the hot tub is the back yard. There is room for improvement, but it was somewhat out of the owner's hands...the hot tub broke while we were there and it was in chilly weather...one of the reasons we selected this condo was for the hot tub. Especially since the pool was freezing. We did attempt to walk to the other pool and hot tub on the resort since that pool is heated, but it was still too cold with the weather and the hot tub wasn't working either. The first night it worked, but the next morning it was broken. We still enjoyed our time with the comfort of the room and the balcony being a perfect view of the pool. It would have also been a nice addition to have coffee available in the room since we didn't go to the store until the following day, but they did serve it in the office so we just walked to the office when they opened at 9 am. Super friendly people and employees. Overall, we had a really great time and would stay here again...as long as there aren't further issues with the hot tub. We might just go in warmer months. Our 5 and 7 year old boys loved every bit of it. We took them to Rain Forest Cafe on our 2nd day since it was too cold to swim and that was an absolute hit...pricey, but fun. Thank you for our stay! We made wonderful memories!
