Great condo and resort. The parking garage can be a bit of a maze and frustrating to get up and down levels with the tight turn radius for a larger truck. All of the staff were wonderful, polite, and very helpful with all of our needs/concerns.

Received too many emails (7)and texts (6). It Made it hard to find the appropriate one. Hidden fees, cleaning fee and resort fee weren’t included; just TELL PEOPLE from the get go. Otherwise, it makes you seem shady.Wrong information sent about obtaining the resort pass- required BEFORE you park and the parking gate doesn’t have a keypad, for the code sent by email. Apparently they’ve told the property manager several times about the “new process”. Also, our wrist bands didn't even work.Lastly, the room. Honestly the other stuff was petty compared to the cleanliness of the condo. Torn couch cushions and pillows. Bathroom door lock broken. Mildew around the bathtub handle, faucet and temperature dial. My niece put her luggage under the bed - the amount of sand under there was CRAZY. Drawers and cupboards need a serious wipe down- old food and sand everywhere. I would suggest a VERY DEEP CLEAN.Also, heavier comforters would be nice. The staff were nice, the pool and beach access were amazing.

It’s ok

First of all, the staff on the property are extremely rude and unfriendly. There are not enough elevators to accommodate the amount of units at this property. We actually took the stairs and used the elevators, maybe five times during our week stay. Parking space for this unit is TIGHT. So much so that I had climb over the passenger seat to get out of the car. The cleanliness of the unit is decent. See attached photos. We found dishes with food on them, but I did not take a photo. The floors were clean and the unit smelled of bleach when we checked in. 2 articles of my clothing (brand new!!) were ruined by the washer leaving black marks on them. The owner/property manager was presented with photos and has yet to respond to my request to have them replaced.Bed linens, pillows and towels left a lot to be desired. I think we had 4 or 5 towels in the entire unit. 2 pillows presented on a king bed. One on each twin. All flat and very used. We actually went to Walmart across the street and purchased our own. Overall, I paid a lot of money to stay here, and was pretty disappointed all the way around.

Hi Kristin, we’re really sorry you encountered rude staff, elevator challenges, washer damage to your clothing, and worn linens and towels — that’s understandably disappointing, especially for the price. We’re improving our stock of pillows and towels, looking into the washer issue, and continuing to work with the resort on service expectations and communication.
