Our initial experience walking in the door was a blast of intense bleach smell. Additionally, while we understand the AC was set to eco mode, it was 80 degrees - much too hot and took a long time to cool down comfortably. We were also surprised to find the floors absolutely filthy… we had to try to keep our 18 month old off the floors as much as possible - not an easy task. Our feet were black after walking around barefoot inside for only a short time. Not very inviting! The cookware was in poor condition and many of the dishes in the cabinet/drawers still had food on them. Gross! Cabinet doors/drawers/knobs were greasy and also had smeared food on them. The towels provided were dingy and had brown dirt marks. The sheets were a dingy, yellowed and stained. Sand covered absolutely EVERYTHING in the unit. While we understand fully that this is a beach condo, the condition was absolutely unacceptable. There wasn’t even cleaning supplies available for us to use to help clean up some of the mess!
On the bright side… The complex itself seemed pretty nice, wonderful neighborhood/area, close beach access which was a major plus, and the pool was nice. It’s a shame that the unit was such a disappointment because we had a fantastic family vacation aside from our actual condo. The unit really needs some attention in order to live up to its potential!

Hi Amanda, we’re sorry to hear that your stay didn’t meet your expectations. After sharing your feedback with the homeowner, they wanted to let you know about a few improvements they’ve made:
- To create a more pleasant arrival, the homeowner is now using gentler cleaning products to minimize any strong odors.
- The thermostat's ECO setting has been adjusted to 76°F, so the A/C cools the space quicker and keeps it comfortable from the moment you arrive.
- While the homeowner didn’t find the floors excessively dirty, they’ve scheduled a deep steam cleaning and will ensure the cleaning team vacuums the tile floors after each guest to remove any sand.
- The cookware has been upgraded to a brand-new T-Fal 12-piece set, and the cleaning team is checking all dishes during each turnover.
- Fresh, hotel-quality towels and linens are always provided. Moving forward, the cleaning team will inspect them even more carefully to replace any stained or worn items immediately. The homeowner also keeps a fresh stock of brand-new linens on hand.
- For guests' convenience, cleaning supplies like a Swiffer mop, broom, and dustpan are in the utility closet with the beach chairs and toys, while floor and surface cleaners are restocked under the kitchen sink for future guests’ use.
We’re always working hard to ensure the home is clean, comfortable, and welcoming, and we’ll continue doing our best to provide a great stay for all our guests! Thank you again for your feedback.
My friend and I decided to come down for LDW and we could not be any happier with our stay! The location to the beach was perfect and quick drives to surrounding areas. The condo itself was super clean and well equipped but also the condo complex was clean and quiet. Would HIGHLY recommend!

I loved that they had beach towels, chairs, cooler, boogie boards and umbrellas. Everything you would need to enjoy your beach stay. Even has games and puzzles. I had an issue (self caused) with the door lock and the property manager responded immediately and fixed the issue. Will definitely be staying here again! Zero issues!

This is our third stay in this unit, so we clearly love it! The layout is perfect for us, the resort is quiet, family- friendly, and has a huge pool. Beach is right across the street and not crowded. Some updates this year--the new TV is much easier to use, bigger fridge, new paint and furniture in the Florida room. We LOVE the furniture update to the Florida room--it's perfect for our teenager! Please consider updating the mattress in the bedroom next.
From the owner:
'Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing to stay with us for the third time, Stephanie & Jess! We’re thrilled to hear that you love the layout, the resort's amenities, and the updates we've made, especially to the Florida room.
We wanted to let you know that we have taken your suggestion to heart and have replaced the mattress in the bedroom with a brand-new one. We also noticed that a few past reviews mentioned the mattress, and we are confident that the new one will enhance the comfort of your stay.
We would love to have you stay with us again and continue to enjoy the improvements we make to ensure your stays are as pleasant as possible."
Shauna is very nice. We really liked the apartment, kitchen items, bath towels, sheets, very complete house for our accommodation. I would come back.
