Good house for family vacation

We had several problems during our stay: no internet, water leak on the first floor, kitchen light electrical short, and a leak in the outside pool pump. However, management was responsive and worked hard to try and fix these problems. The house was roomy and perfect for us in all other respects.

Beach Comfort!!!

Place was excellent stay for a large family. Upon arrival everything was clean and check in was a breeze. Short walk to beach access. Great amenities in the building which make the stay a breeze. Fully equipped functional kitchen makes cooking meals for the family memorable. Would recommend the stay to anyone with large family in need of spacious comfort.

Very Nice Condo

It was a great vacation. We have used several different condo's in the SPI Rental system and this one, at 113 Mars, is the best one yet. We really liked it - clean, spacious, well stocked, several big screen TVs. Just all around, everything was done well. All appliances worked well and with a nice sized pool for relaxing. We hope to get this condo again next year ! A+

Relaxing ambiance

We stayed here for 3 nights and all we can say is, very relaxing and comfortable place to stay. Very close to beach access and safe place. There are some issues in the backyard and back patio , needs cleaning, but overall, I recommend this is one of our best place to stay. We called some issues to fixed and the guy came so fast , he was very polite. Surely we will be back.

Perfect for four adults

This was the perfect location for a reunion of four adult women post graduate school (20 years out). Early May offers great Spring weather when the cactus is in bloom, after the college Spring breaks and before the graduation parties and families arrive. Highly recommended. It was close to all the restaurants - either a bike ride or short walk away to many. The accommodations were better than expected.

Great Stay!

House was as depicted - nicely furnished and had lots of light and great location to beach and restaurants! SPI Rentals provided excellent service! Shout out to Joe in Maintenance on taking my requests for a clean pool, more towels, blankets and patio chairs for our group of 7 upon our arrival as those items were limited. Definitely made the stay more enjoyable and comfortable! Only a few picky things to note with house- we are foodies and cooked a lot and kitchen supplies lacking in some areas like big toaster for 4, measuring cups/spoons and plasticware to store food were minimal but we made do. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would do again!

POOL ISSUES

The big reason we picked this place was because of a pool.There was very little water pressure from a very noisy pump.The water did not seem clear and actually safe.

Thank you for your feedback, Michael. We're sorry to hear about the pool issues you encountered during your stay.

We hope to provide a better experience if you choose to stay with us again. Best regards, Ashleigh T., General Manager

113 Mars

Great location for access to all the restaurants, beach and other activities. Most within walking distance. Beautiful home. Perfectly designed for two family occupancy with privacy for all. Tastefully decorated and a private pool in the backyard along with a gas BBQ grill. Kitchen was stocked with a hodge podge of pots, pans and other cooking utensils. Most were really worn and stained. This made fixing meals at the house difficult. Beds were comfortable but linens left a lot to be desired. Biggest complaint was the lack of a pool vacuum. Pool was crystal clear when we arrived but with 8 people using it and high winds for days, it desperately needed vacuuming after 3 days. That never happened even after a couple of requests.
Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023
Response from VrboOwner on 2 Nov, 2023
Hi Lisa, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us and the community. We are glad that you enjoyed your overall stay at our Mars landing home. We have taken a note of the pans and have gotten with the owner to see what we are allowed to replace. Unfortunately, with it being in the summer season the pool company does have to come out and vacuum the pool and they were unable to do to scheduling. If you’re willing to give us another shot, we’d appreciate the opportunity to give you the experience you deserve. Regards, Marina L., Sales Manager- SPI Rentals team
