Great Place To Stay

We loved this place !! We will for sure stay here again! Clean , everything you need. Just make sure you bring a firestick or Roku because we couldn't get the cable to work. Which your at the beach so there is not a lot of need for TV. We did bring our firestick for the kids to watch at night so it wasn't an issue for us. I would recommend this place to anyone.

ON THE BEACH

Being right on the beach was what drew us to your facility. Price made a difference also, but they do say you get what you paid for. It really needs some "minor" repairs, updating, etc. But it was beautiful being right on the beach, exactly what we wanted.

Hey Gail, I'm sorry that you were disappointed in your stay at our condo. I wish that you would have called me upon arrival, and I would have been happy to refund your money. I'm not sure what you expect for $175 per night for 4 adults but we try to offer the best value on the beach and would really like to know what repairs and updating need to be done. Please call or text me at 706-614-6378. Thanks, Ben

Beds and bathroom

The mattresses need replacing. Furniture is worn out. Bathroom floors need good scrubbing. Front door and trim needs painting.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Jul, 2020
Hey Lee, I am so sorry to hear about your stay. I wish that you would have called me because we just bought and remodeled the unit next door. We just went live on VRBO today 7/22/20 and I could have moved you next door or given you a refund so you could go somewhere else. Eighty percent of my guest are repeats and I always ask for any recommendations from them. The last nine reviews going back to last September have been 5 stars. I know that because of covid and the new elevator installation this spring that painting was pushed back until the fall. We just installed all new stainless appliances (dishwasher,oven,microwave and double door refrigerator) in early March and will be going down in late September to replace all necessary items. Also the bathroom floors have dark grey grout and are "chloroxed" every cleaning. Thanks for your input, Ben 706-614-6378

Good place

What I liked: considerate communication from the owner, views of beach & ocean from living room, balcony and master; having 2 bdrms and 2 baths, the small size of the bldg. What could’ve been better: it had been cleaned before arrival but it needs a deep, thorough cleaning. It’s old and kind of dingy and the kitchen really needs updating. But I also know that owners don’t always put a lot into a pet-friendly unit.

I am so sorry that you were disappointed in our condo. I had scheduled a deep clean after our winter guest departure but unfortunately it was not done prior to your arrival. I offer a money back to any guest that is not completely satisfied when they arrive. I only wish that you had contacted me about your disappointment. Ben

Cozy home away from home

This condo is a cozy home away from home. The view of the Gulf is awesome from the master bedroom and the living room. My mother-in-law who cannot go to the beach enjoyed the balcony overlooking the Gulf. I could take my dog, and there was a nice pet area that I could take her to. We arrived late and had a minor problem with a toilet, and I called the owners and left a message They texted me back early the next morning, and the toilet was repaired before noon on Sunday. You cannot ask for better communication with the owners and service from the condo maintenance. We will stay at this condo again. Carol

A few complaints, but had a nice time overall.

PROS: Not crowded, beautiful view, stocked kitchen, very comfortable beds, easy check-in, nice size condo, pretty décor., clean (except for bathroom floors), pet friendly, plenty of convenient parking, nice bathrooms and showers at pool area, plenty of tables & deck chairs. Building is older but well maintained (except for the elevator). CONS: Bathroom floors were pretty nasty, mold in bathroom vents, TV in 2nd bedroom had no signal, small & overcrowded pool (not heated), master bedroom stayed rather warm (I bought a fan), elevator was awful (out of order for 2 days, and was slow, hot, and stinky).

Dear Elizabeth, I am sorry to hear about the problems you encountered during your stay. I have contacted the condo manager and he has informed me that the board has approved a new elevator to be installed. I was very disappointed to learn that it was out of service. I have also discussed the other items you raised with the appropriate personnel. I always encourage guest to contact me upon arrival of any issues or concerns so that I can try to rectify them immediately. Please email me a copy of the receipt for the fan and I will be happy to reimburse you. Thanks for letting me know and for also for the positive you mentioned. Best regards, Ben Murray 706-614-6378

Close to beach but unit needs tlc

We arrived to find that one bath was completely missing shower curtain and rod which we bought a new one and installed. We filtered through Atleast 6 remotes that had no batteries to find the correct ones and had to share remotes for living room and one bedroom. My mother got stuck in bathroom because door handle would not retract the latch so we changed out internal components w a handle set we found in a closet. My dog found a dead mouse. Upon packing to leave we found another mouse had gotten into the bread and dog food left on counter. Apparently New patio furniture is coming but if you plan to sit on the balcony in the rusted furniture besure you’re up to date on your tetanus. The positives are the unit is close to the beach and the owners did reimburse as promised for the shower curtain. The unit desperately needs some tlc.

Broken Promises

We looked forward to our vacation for many months. We were informed a couple days before check in that the water would be turned off for maintenance from 10-2 one day during our stay. This was ok as we planned on being on the beach. With double red flags we weren’t allowed in the water. We went to several places looking for a restroom and they did not have public restrooms. Then, we were informed that some workers would need to come to our condo to replace the railing on the balcony. This was told to us the day of the repair. We stayed at the condo while they did the repair because of our small dog. All of the furniture from outside was brought inside and we waited for a few hours because the workers removed the railing and then took a lunch break before completing the job. When the work was complete we moved furniture back out and cleaned the huge mess that it made being brought inside. Ben told me that if we allowed them to do the work he would send us a check for our dinner if we sent him the receipt. We agreed that was fair. We did not send him the receipt for that particular night since we went to the buffet and it was well over $300. I sent him the receipt from the following night because the bill was much less. I have yet to receive a response from him. I tried to send a message today and it seems he has my number blocked. It was truly an inconvenience for us during our vacation. Beware of any promises made as they may be broken.

This was a very spacious two bedroom condo with, what I would call two master suites, with two king beds. Just what we were looking for. The condo hosts were easy to contact and communicate with.
