While the condo could use an update and maybe an extra blanket overall we were extremely happy and would rent again

Overall a great experience

We enjoyed the property, although a little out dated. I would suggest adding a blanket to be used with the pull out couch. We had a great time and would rent again!

Immediately upon entering we noticed a stong musty smell (beyond the normal ocean side smell) we also noticed the linens had hairs in them. Also toilet seat had hairs on it ans appeared it hadnt been cleaned. There were even hairs on the stove top and inside the fridge. We took pictures of everything and sent to property manager Immediately requesting a call back but only recieved messages. It was not until my wife had made a post on a local facebook page that an employee of the management company saw, that we recieved a call about our concerns. She was VERY helpful and We were refunded cleaning services fee and also was comped a dinner. One other issue we had was the beach service that was included. It was not clear who our beach service was with cause no chairs were setup for our building. Turns out they are with island princess next door. This was not made clear in the listing. Over all our issues got addressed but I would not stay at this particular location again.
