Loved the property and location. Beautiful, roomy and right on the beach as described!! Had an issue with the pool (extremely high chlorine level) that was not resolved until our last day. Had to place multiple calls/emails to get the issue addressed. Was allowed on day 3 to use the pool next door. Was not happy with this but, we would definitely stay here again!!

Not worth the money
Unfortunately, was hoping for a better experience. While the property was nice, it’s not worth the nightly rate.
The property is currently listed for sale so that may have something to do with it.
We did not receive what was advertised. When we asked about the heated pool, we were told it’s an additional $75/day (not disclosed on the listing). Fortunately, we took screenshots from both the rental company page and VRBO.
Two different maintenance personnel came over during our stay because the in-ground sprinkler system would not turn off. Both of them told us they had work orders to turn off the heated pool before our arrival. Again, if this additional fee was advertised, it wouldn’t be a problem.
Before doing business with this rental company, make sure to ask about any additional fees.
We didn’t get our “included” rounds of golf.
Most of the drains are slow, particularly the top floor master.
Don’t make the same mistakes that we did. Just because you pay a premium price doesn’t mean you get a premium experience.

Thank you, Mike, for sharing your experience. While we're glad you found the property nice, we’re sorry to hear that some aspects of your stay didn’t meet your expectations.
We addressed the sprinkler issue promptly during your visit and are reviewing our listing details to ensure the pool heat fee is clearly disclosed. We noted your acknowledgment of the fee at the time of inquiry, but we understand how this may have impacted your expectations.
Regarding the golf tickets, multiple emails are sent by Xplorie with instructions on how to claim these complimentary activities. We’re always happy to assist with any questions, and we encourage guests to reach out during their stay so we can help resolve any issues in real-time.
Thank you for your feedback, and we hope to have an opportunity to improve your experience in the future.
