Dirty and needs updated!

The couch shown in the pic was new then. Now the center where the two seat cushions meet has about two inches remaining. The outsides of the same couch cushions are 5-6 inches tall, like the pic shown online. That's false advertising. The king size bed is so broken down that one of our party couldn't sleep on it! I went to bed with no issues and woke up in pain every day. The rugs by the king bed were so dirty that the underside compared to the top side was white and the topside gray. We only noticed because they are a slip and fall hazard (aka lawsuit potential) and we rolled them up and put under the bed. Our feet after our first showers were BLACK the floors were so filthy. Cleaning people are hard to find, but those floors had filth on them. Owners should hire a new company. The cabinetry in the kitchen is very old and Formica is coming off right in front of kitchen sink, snagging loose clothing when you are working at the sink. The microwave in there has exposed metal inside in a large area. We were told theee times not to touch the refrigerator temps and so left it alone thinking that whomever cleans it out must be in charge of setting it. After a few days, we had frozen food that had to be tossed (fresh fruit and veggies). Called maintenance and they responded same day, which is good. For as much as we paid for peak season, the owners need to get their butts in there and come off of some of that money to update, update, update!!

Not the best

This was not the original room we picked. The owners of the other room decided not to rent so we were moved to this one. The beds were super hard and uncomfortable. The couch sinks in the middle making it uncomfortable to sit on. The toilet in master bedroom kept running and the shower did not drain good.

Security caused issues on our second day of a 9 day stay

I was disappointed in the company we rented from they way they handled a situation with the security with Brett Robinson. The company we rented from was Alabama Beach Rentals. They came and told us if we had one more noise complaint we would be kicked out. Didn’t ask us anything or wait to hear a response. When I emailed they put it on the property manager, but the property manger wasn’t going to boot us out of our condo we paid for. They never responded to my detailed email. So no I was not happy with the property security or the rental company. Which it all boiled down to a power hungry security asking us to turn music down outside under the pavilion at six in the evening. Then coming back again an hour later after telling us the volume was fine and was not turned any louder. I define my had a problem with that. After I spoke (the next day) with the property management we had no more problems. Still very stressful and had lack of sleep thinking we would be tossed out and have to eat the money we dished out for our vacation because of a power hungry security guard 😡
