We stayed over the weekend in this unit, and it was a very nice place. Good appliances, very clean, beds were comfy, board games, air hockey and "old school" video game upstairs. Would definitely stay again.

Thank you for the 5 stars. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your return to the island!
We Loved this cozy home away from home! The house was perfect, the location was great and the communication was awesome should you have any questions! The only reason it’s not a 5 star review for me was the floors downstairs were very dirty. I would definitely stay again!
Nice place in a good location whether walking the 1/3 mile to the beach, using a golf cart or driving your vehicle. Pool was fun. House was just right for 2 adults & 4 kids. Not happy with the rusted patio furniture but otherwise, great stay!

The property was perfect for our family of four. The kids had a blast in the pool on-site and the arcade game and air hockey table were a big hit. The property was an easy walk to the beach if we didn’t feel like driving and was close to all the other Port A activities we wanted to do.

Home was located close to everything. This is the best spot to be, home was clean, well organized and stocked with everything we needed. We didn't need to bring much from home except just clothes, beach towels and food. We will definitely return to this property.

We had a wonderful time. The property was clean and the pool is perfect for the whole family. The only suggestion is to add a hose to the outdoor faucet and get new sheets for downstairs bed.
The property was great. Great location for easily getting to beach and shops/restaurants. Pool was great! We stayed during spring break and my only complaint was the late night noise and people gathering outside in the parking lot yelling and revving engines. No fault of the owners, just maybe not the place to stay with little kids that need to sleep.
Perfect location for a fun stay with friends!! This beach townhome was a green location for an easy walk to the beach. Super cute Beachy atmosphere that we all loved. The kiddos loved the fun pool with slide and the air hockey table. This is a great spot to share with family or friends!!! Check in and check was super easy and it was very well stocked with all the dishes and etc. that we needed for our stay. 100% would rent again.

It was a nice place with a bathroom for everyone. The only issue I had was the others in the community were up late, outside and loud. Nothing you can do about the neighbors.

Thanks so much for the great review, and thanks so much for staying with us at Life in Paradise. We look forward to having you stay with us again soon.
Everything was clean and there were lots of extras. Keurig was provided for coffee, and board games for passing time. The only thing I would say should be improved is the internet. Signal was awful. Other than that, it was perfect.

I picked this place bc of the proximity to the beach + the games & the fun pool based on photos and it didn’t disappoint!
Arcade games gave us something to do when indoors and the pool was very clean + lots of fun for our little guy who is almost 4 (we loved it too)!
Golf cart is a must but location is great for beach & local restaurants and nearby coffee shop (highly recommend Coffee Waves for coffee, tea, & gelato). Would definitely stay again next time!
Only complaint is the patio furniture is too rusty/falling apart to even think about using it.
Wish they would replace that or add some chairs to the back patio.

Enjoy the condo, plenty of room for us. Clean and very nice. One drain was a little slow to empty, refrigerator wasn’t cooling very well, but reported the issues and both fixed within a couple of hours. Wasn’t able to use the garage, wasn’t a big issue for us, but would be a nice option.

Disliked: Cleanliness
A little more attention to cleanliness needed
The place was nice, and we had a lovely time. The frustration was that it wasn’t quite what we expected for the amount we paid. It seemed that the sheets on one of the beds were not cleaned before we arrived, a little disturbing actually, what was found. There were no extra sheets and blankets for the sofa bed, and when we pulled the bed out it appeared to have crumbs all over it. The pots and pans were in poor condition and some were not well cleaned. There was nothing left for cleaning countertops. The pictures did not portray how dark the downstairs is, not a single window, which is a little dismal when going to the beach. When we called about things we needed it took awhile to get a response. With all this being said, our family still had a really nice time. We just think the cleaning service in between visits should do a better job!
The rental property was amazing. Thank you for the cleanliness and all of the included amenities! We will certainly be booking another family vacation!
Usually we stay somewhere right in the beach however, we enjoyed our stay here overall. Nice pool, nice condo and easy access to beach and town if you have a golf cart.
Property was clean and newer. Layout worked great for us. Perfectly located near the beach with easy access and also for other amenities. Definitely would want to stay here again.
