Pros:
- Great location, close to everything, great views off the front porch.
- Loved the two porches/outdoor areas.
- The condo itself was huge, spacious, very clean, very comfortable.
- The owner was easy to contact and he got back to us quickly if we had questions.
Cons:
- No Wifi! Really odd for 2022 and very cheap on the owner's part. I know it was not mentioned on the listing, so I guess I should have known? But I really didn't consider that no WiFi would actually occur in a vacation rental. For this day and age, it's a necessity. You need it for restaurant searches, things to do searches, for booking reservations, ordering deliveries, GPS searches, etc.
- The listing mentions a trolley that comes to pick you up near the resort entrance, but there was no additional information on this. No schedule posted, no mention that the trolley is NOT free. Would have liked some info on this as customers! We looked and felt rather dumb searching for where the trolley picks you up at, then waiting there for 15 minutes in the hot sun, to then being asked by the trolley driver if we had a wristband. What wristband? No one mentioned a wristband. It's $2.50 per person without this magical wristband, FYI.
- The rental itself is full of Christian memorabilia. Pillows, wall hangings, journals. Even the shower curtain had bible phrases all over it. Not a huge deal to us personally (we are agnostic), but I could imagine others may find this uncomfortable or even rude. I feel vacation homes should be very neutral. No need to advertise your religion all over the building.
- The owner booked us without clearing it with us first and has a ZERO refund policy, so we were SOL... I had reached out weeks beforehand asking if the owner could accommodate an earlier check-in and a later check-out time. He could not (which is not his fault), but then he booked us anyway without asking if that was alright first. To do this and then offer absolutely NO refunds is just wild to me. We had to change our weekend plans around to accommodate this room and had no choice. We wanted to cancel but then would be out nearly $500. Very frustrating and not a good business model in my eyes.
