Awesome place and location

Definitely will be going back. This place is even better in person. Great location to restaurants, groceries, attractions and best of all the beach. The unit has everything you could think of. And, communication to /from the host and rental company was excellent.

Great location

We had a wonderful stay at this beach condo! It was clean, beautifully decorated, and in a fantastic location. Being right by the pool and just steps from the gate to the beach made it incredibly convenient. The condo had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The only small surprise was that one of the rooms was a bit smaller than we expected, but it didn’t detract from the overall experience. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location

Very clean condo and wonderful staff. Easy check in and loading/unloading zone. I was worried because my father is on a walker and was concerned about him walking long distance from the parking lot. He was able to pull close to the office and only had to walk a short distance to our condo. Loved the nightly security that was present. Definitely recommend this condo. Plenty of room for our family. Had a party of 11.

The 1st day we got there da whole condo was warm so we waited to see if it cooled down for the night. The temperature did drop some butttt it was a warm night. I did call the number and spoke to an older lady and I kindly said it was a warm night she responded with it was a hot day and today will be another hot day. I responded, ma'am we are from Texas we know what heat is! She said, we will send someone to check the thermostat. Also, she wouldn't know what time the guy would show up. Mind you I called in the morning, We kinda waited around to see if anyone would show up. We left about 2:00ish p.m. as we needed to go to walmart which is not far from the condo. Lord and behold not even 10 mins into walmart I get a phone call from a guy stating he was around da corner from da condo and will br arriving shortly. Within not even 20 mins the condo sent a text stating da air was at 50 to 55 degrees and was functioning properly. We stayed Mon- Thur half of da condo was warm the whole entire time. Luckily we got thunderstorms and that's what made da condo a little cooler. Also, we had to scrape food off of some dishes and pots. We also found in one of the bedrooms a trash can with urine in it the first day we got there who knows how long that was there. Also, the 2 older men from the office were not fond of us seem like they were just watching us. Needless to say we would not recommend this place nor stay there again.

Need better communication skills

We were at the condo from Tuesday till Saturday. The dryer never worked. We called and left a voice message and then called and spoke with vrbo and they were gonna get someone out to fix. The very next day I called back to find out why no one called and that is when we found out that it would not be fixed while we were there. We had a total of 10 people in the condo so to say that we were not happy At all. The condo was nice but not when u can’t wash clothes.

Wedding on the beach

Location of the property is in a awesome place. Easy access to the beach. However the problem that i had 2-3 weeks before my reservation i tried to get ahold of the property manager and never got back with me on parking passes and our code to get in when we arrived. Got there on mother's day weekend and no one was in the office at the property cause of covid reasons. Long story short the owners ghosted me after they got there money. Still to this day. I have haven't heard anything from them. If it wasn't for the maintenance personnel at the property i probably wouldn't not of be able to get into my condo. My property owners just sucked in my opinion.

Overall, the interior of the property was much better than the exterior. It's a nice location but there are no frills with the property. I had just a couple of items that I wasn't happy with. There was sand on the floor and on a couple of the beds upon arrival. The kitchen wasn't as well stocked as I would have expected as far as cooking utensils and pots and pans. I was a little surprised there was no dish soap, even the small one would have been nice to go with the dishwasher packet that was provided. The mattresses need to be updated as well. Make sure to pack all of the essentials if you are going to stay more than a day or two. Generally, it was a good place to stay for the price. We didn't have any issues with check-in and the property was quiet. The ground floor was nice and I liked the location to the pool.

Loved the proximity to pool and beac

Unit has been renovated, spacious and decor is cute. The unit was great size for our multi generational group. We enjoyed to close proximity to pool and beach and covered porch area. Unit had everything you needed in the kitchen and baths including crockpots and an instapot. We didn’t use either but I would have liked to know that before packing ours from home. Vacuum didn’t work and being a 1st floor unit we needed the vacuum with sand. Minor inconveniences were - Dryer wasn’t working/heating properly (took hours to dry a load) and one of the king beds needed maintenance because the middle supports were bent and caused you to roll toward center. Internet service on Smart TV wasn’t working in master bedroom but they were able to watch regular TV. The code for the door quit working day prior to our departure. Rental agency set up new code and it worked for few hours then quit working again. We were leaving next day so we managed with someone being in the unit to answer the door. Overall, we enjoyed the unit and would stay again if minor issues were fixed.

Spacious ground level condo .

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The ground level unit is a fantastic place to vacation with your family. The unit is perfectly placed to the community pool and to the walkway to the beach. All hard surface floors are a plus! Upon arrival we had not received the code for the lock on our unit. The security guard at the Moondrifter was very accommodating with helping us to get into the unit. He made phone calls for us and we did get the code the next morning. We also had a small problem with ants in the master bedroom. The maintenance department was there immediately to take care of this problem for us. I would suggest for the cleaning crew to leave more than two garbage bags for a week stay. Also, dishwashing liquid would also be a nice perk. If your family is staying for more than a few days, I would suggest to take paper towels, garbage bags, dish soap and all condiments for your stay. The community grills do need to be cleaned. I do not recommend using them! The pool is wonderful! The location of the condo is wonderful to all restaurants and shopping! I would stay in this unit again.
