Unit 512

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House of Sun is a well maintained property in a prime beach location. The king size mattress in the master bedroom is in desperate need of replacement. The mattress is very lumpy. The ceiling fan in the master bedroom is very tricky to operate and there are no instructions. The ceiling fan and overhead light turned on automatically at 4 am. Bathroom tile in both bathrooms needs a deep cleaning.

512 week 9

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have stayed in this unit several times over the years. The view is excellent but the unit is in terrible need for updating. Since my negative review from last year, the only thing the owner had done is replace the washer/dryer. The furniture is garbage and the size of the TV’s are a joke. The rent has increased to over $5.0K per week. For $700+/night, I expect first class furnishings that on on par with the view. I said adios to House of the Sun after our family has been staying there since the 80’s. Allegedly, the unit has been sold and the new owner said they will replace the furnishings. That may or may not happen by next year. That is not good enough. The bathrooms and kitchen need major work too.

Great stay needs updating

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: This was our second stay at House of Sun. It's a great location and the beach is beautiful. We stayed in 512 GF this time, and it needs a lot of updating. The master bath is really old and outdated and only one shower door works. The furniture is very old and the white leather has a few large stains. The TV's are tiny. In need of some updating.

Unit 512

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was clean and the location was great. But had several issues with the unit. Water pressure in kitchen was bad. Sink in hallway bath drain plug was broke. The blinds in living room kept coming off when open and closing. Radio in master bedroom was broke. Great to have washer & dryer in unit. Dryer worked but took a long time to dry anything. Loved beach access, security and pool. Close to restaurants, Captain Curt's, Big Water Fish Market were our favorites. Used trolley often, Frog Hop & Eddie's limo service were all great. Had Walmart deliver food & beverages. Took trolley to Village Plaza and Frog to Drum Circle. Did not call on any maint issues, we didn't want to wait for anyone and didn't want anyone in condo when we were not there.

February 2019 Stay

We have stayed at nearby places and always were curious about the House of the Sun. This year we satisfied our curiosity, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay: the view from our balcony was breathtaking. Everything met our high expectations. We will return next year and highly recommend the House of the Sun to others.
