There were some things that we enjoyed and many things that we hated at this condo. We weren't there a lot, which was why we were looking for the cheapest place in a good location. Here are our pros and cons.
PROS:
-The condo is bigger than it looks in the pics. We had 6 adults and we all had a lot of room to move around.
-The balcony was also large and have a nice view of the lagoon.
- Serge was helpful when I asked to him questions about finding a public park to have a BBQ.
-Location was great! It was across the street from Ms. Newbys, the beach, and Hammerhead Fred's. The location was perfect, only a short walk from everything.
- Having a code for the front door was super helpful instead of having keys.
CONS:
- The place was dirty. We had to buy bleach to soak the shower head because it was solid black with mildew. There were cockroaches on waIls. It was gross.
- There are a ton of beds. It was impossible to sleep on most of them. The 1st BR king and trundle bed in 2nd BR were ok, the rest were pretty bad, we all complained & no one slept well. One girl literally fell through the sofa bed in the master, it doesn't have support anymore.
- There really is a lockbox around the thermostat that remotely sets for 80 during the day, 75 at night.
- We were told the week of our visit that we had to pay $20 for each parking pass, only 2 cars inside the gate, the rest had to walk even with a pass. I arrived to pay it, it was CASH ONLY, I was refused a receipt, then charged an extra $10 per parking pass when we left (because we didn't leave them behind, even though they had the dates of our stay so no one else could use them later) an extra $120 I wasn't expecting.
- The showers in both bathrooms are jerry-rigged and scary. Weird knobs, plugs, and holes. Also I was there 6 nights and never took a hot shower, EVER.
- The furniture on the back porch was very old furniture that used to be in the house, including one couch that was almost completely peeled off pleather, but just enough pleather left to peel off on you when you sit on it.
- We had to check out by 9:30, with the floors swept, clean out the stove, microwave, fridge, freezer. If we didn't pay for linens and had to do all that, why pay a cleaning fee?
- If you plan to wash/dry your clothes, expect it to take 5+ hours (literally) as you wash them, then have to dry them 3 times for 90 min (each time cleaning the lint trap.)
We won't stay here again, we left tired and uncomfortable
