My husband and I spent a long weekend in Leeward II #3 for a joint birthday and "babymoon" celebration in mid-August. This condo could not provide more convenient beach access, with the sand mere steps from your first-floor deck - a MUST for me at 8.5 months pregnant. Though we spent very little time indoors, the interior is charming and reasonably comfortable. We appreciated that there were beach chairs on our deck that could be taken down to the beach, and families will also appreciate the assortment of boogie boards and other toys on the property. I was surprised to find there were no coffee filters for the auto-drip coffee maker, but the kitchen was otherwise adequately appointed. Similarly, the bathroom was adequately stocked with bath & hand towels and travel-sized toiletries.

My only complaint with our rental is with the property management company. Their check-in procedures state that check-in is available at 3pm on the first day of your rental. We arrived at the unit shortly before 2:30 to find the cleaning crew packing up and locking the doors. We contacted the management company to request permission to enter the property a half hour early (after all, I'm 8.5 months pregnant, it was 90+ degrees, and we had groceries in the car), and were met with a rather indignant refusal from the girl answering the phones. She insisted that the unit had to be inspected by a supervisor (this never happened) and that she could not activate our entry code remotely. We sat in the parking lot with our groceries simply waiting for time to pass until we were allowed to enter. Unfortunately, the code STILL did not work after several attempt to enter after 3pm, so we placed another call to the same girl at the front desk who changed our code over the phone and access was immediately activated with the new code... remotely! Imagine that!! It was extremely frustrating to be denied access to the rental a mere 30 minutes early for no legitimate reason, especially coupled with her unreasonable attitude. Very poor customer service in that regard.

Despite our unpleasant experience upon arrival, our stay was otherwise lovely and I would recommend this rental to other couples or small families looking for a simple & convenient weekend rental. Just don't arrive any earlier than 3pm on the first day of your vacation!
