The prickly pear suite was really nice. They locked me out&changed the code to my room about 2 days into my week long stay. Its nearly impossible to get up with the host. My downstairs neighbors got locked out of the room with their medications inside, their code was changed as well. Once again couldn't make contact with the host. They had to call the law to get into their room. The boat dock 1 being so close was one of the only upsides to this property. Its been a week and I still havent gotten my deposit back. Not worth the hassle, uber doesnt deliver that far. Great for a weekend getaway if you dont need to go anywhere and get the physical key out of the lockbox. If they give you the code for it. No pool. The wifi DOES NOT work. The 'kitchenette' consists of a sink, mini fridge,µwave. Someone else's hair was on the bathroom floor.
