Excellent host! Very responsive. Location is great. The place is a little rundown and needs some TLC. However, great value for what we paid. Close to the beach.

Great condo

We came for a beach weekend trip. The condo was very cute, clean and comfortable. The ac worked great and there was plenty of space to relax. Loved the golf cart and beach access.

The condo's proximity to the beach was excellent, and the included golf cart was a huge convenience and made getting around easy.Unfortunately, the unit itself was not well maintained. The upstairs patio door would not lock, and although maintenance was notified, the issue was never resolved. The washing machine had visible mold, and the shower drain was clogged, making it unpleasant to use.Overall, the location was great, but the condition of the unit did not match the price. For the value, I don't feel it was worth it.

Thank you for taking the time to share such honest feedback. We're glad the beach was just steps away and that the golf cart made getting around easy for you. That said, we're truly sorry the unit fell short of what you expected. We want to clarify that the patio door is a hurricane-style door that locks by lifting the handle — our maintenance team did come out to check it and confirmed it was functioning as designed. We hope that context helps for any future visits! However, the mold in the washing machine and the clogged shower drain are concerns we take seriously, and we sincerely apologize that those issues affected your stay. We're addressing both to make sure future guests have a much better experience. Your feedback helps us do better, and we're grateful you shared it. We hope you'll give us the chance to provide the stay you deserve down the road. Thank you for choosing Life in Paradise Vacation Rentals!

Convenience!!

Highlight of this property was the convenience to the beach. We loved having the golf cart, only a quick ride on the boardwalk and you were on the beach in minutes. Kitchen supplies (pans, utensils, etc.) were inadequate. One of the main pans did not have a handle. Upstairs bathroom shower could use new caulking, mildew is present. Quiet neighborhood with mostly families renting. Floor plan worked great for 2 parents and 4 teenagers.

Fun Stay in Port A

Great location, easy beach access, small community pool great for kids, and golf cart included in rental was a huge plus! Upstairs bathroom and windowsills needs a deep clean and sheets on beds were rough and thin. Overall a great stay!
