Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Welcoming to pets. Parking is tight. Internet didnt work. Location to town and the beach is very convenient. One of the beds felt like it had a hole in it. We all noticed our eyes itching and were sneezing a lot so I looked in the AC closet and found what looks like microbial growth on the drywall. Some of the AC registers showed signs of it as well. Thermostat said the humidity levels in the home were close to 70% even with the AC running. Dishwasher sounded horrible and had a terrible sewer smell after running it. Will not be staying again.

The house is very close to everything in Port A and was a beautiful home. There was a bar with some rowdy patrons that kept some of us up on Saturday but that is just a product of the central location. The TV channels load slowly but that was mentioned as an issue in Port A. Overall it was a nice home with plenty of space that we enjoyed a lot.
Property was very nice and clean. Enjoyed it very much.

The property is awesome, clean and as advertised. Check in was off site which we didn’t know until the hour prior, but it was not far so that wasn’t terrible. The area is nice it was quiet throughout our stay. Proximity to bars and restaurants can’t be beat! Overall wonderfully stay

I am sorry the you were not informed about our office being offsite. We are a management company and only manage this unit not the whole community so we do provide you with the parking passes for this unit at our office. We are glad to hear this property was awesome and hope to have you back soon.
We had a great stay. The only negative thing about the condo was there was no pot holders, so when we cooked dinner we had to use our hand towels and there was no notification for caution about the coyotes on the island. Our mini schnauzer was attacked on Tuesday night right outside of our condo while we were walking her on the leash. Over all, we had a great time and the condo was beautiful

Close to several popular restaurants and bars. Very clean, large bedrooms, king bed in every room. Open kitchen and living room separated by island. Beachy feel, although not located on the beach. Pool with covered sitting area. Would definitely rent this house again. Only problem was someone stole our canopy we left on the porch. Probably a person passing on the street. Our fault, we shouldn’t have left it out.

This townhouse/condo was very clean and all the beds were super comfortable. We couldn't find extra trashbags but we always come prepared so it wasn't a big deal for us. Loved this place and would highly recommend it.

We thank you for your 5 star review! We hope to see you again soon at 5 O'clock Chateau!
You enjoyed our rental very much and will consider it again for next year. The location is perfect for restaurants, all other attractions, stores for supplies, and of course the beach. Next time we will get a different golf cart vendor. There is a golf cart notice on frig that is half what we paid and it took three golf carts from your recommended vendor before we got one that worked.
We had a great stay at 5 O’clock Chateau. I saw this unit on another site but chose VRBO for it was a bit cheaper but not so after all…. Embarrassing when splitting the bill with others.
The unit it’s self was nice the thermostat was upstairs was created an issue for the master bedroom downstairs. But overall a nice unit.

House was well stocked and everything we need and then some. All kitchen needs, beach chairs, toys for the kids, floor fans, cleaning supplies were all included. Had some issues though. Could not check in at 4:00 due to cleaning crew still onsite. Mopped floor was wet while we unpacked. Fridge was not cooling and didn’t know. Had to move kid’s milk back to ice chest. Called and was told fridge would cool by next day. Had ants in upstairs bedroom. Found popcorn under bed and sandwiches behind couch downstairs. Sent a message and pest control came out next morning. They sprayed the entire bedroom but left floor extremely wet. Wife was still getting things ready for the beach and we had to walk slow to not slip. While packing for checkout, ants had gotten into a box of cereal we brought. Had to throw away.
