Great location but lots of stairs

Super great location! Very few pots and pans. Stove took a long time to boil water and oven was not as hot as dial indicated. Things took much longer to cook. Unit has a LOT of stairs, we got our cardio workout. Great location!!!!

Great place!

Great place for family vacation. The house was really cute and clean. When we arrived there was some issue with smoke detectors but it was fixed within 15 minutes of us reporting it to the staff. Great location- a walk away from the beach! We really enjoyed our stay there. We will be returning in the future.

Everything we needed

Worked great for our family of 8. The condo had all that was stated in the listing, the pool is heated (not a lot, but just enough), and having a walk to the beach without having to contend with traffic was wonderful. Interacted with Vacasa about a missing item in the condo, and they worked out a solution quickly. Wonderful place to stay.

Nice property but with several issues

The home has good proximity to the beach, is well-lit, including lots of natural light, and fits a large family like ours (a rare find).

Close to the beach

But beware, the floors were filthy. The shower curtain rod fell as we were about to check out. The washer smelled. The ice maker was broken. You pay for proximity to the beach, not the amenities.

Great location

This is probably the best location on the island we have stayed. Very short walk to the beach. Overall, we had a very nice experience. I would recommend leaving a garage door opener as it would be so much more convenient parking the golf cart/can-am vehicle. We had to enter the front door each time and walk up and down the stairs to enter the garage to open each time. Also the towel rack in one of the upstairs bathrooms is loosely installed and fell apart everytime a towel was placed or removed from the rack. The TVs were somewhat confusing to operate so we just used the wifi to connect to our personal devices. Overall, great stay and we would come again. Thank you. JRS Dallas, TX

Good location, not so good of a house and host

It’s a great location and makes going to the beach so much easier. There were however some shortcomings that some of it was really serious: Don’t expect any sort of support while you are staying here.. you are on your own! We had the smoke alarms go off (due to what we latter learned was humidity) and were trying to reach out for support. After calling the main line and talking to someone, the manager was supposed to come by, but never showed up. Thanks god we had a neighbor help us! Water pressure was really low in the bathrooms and made some guests really uncomfortable. The washer/dryer system was faulty and made cuts through some of the clothings! Complimentary accommodations were low quality and minimal (for 3-4 people staying 2-3 days max) To be fair and objective, we enjoyed our stay, but not because of the house; it was all about the location. I have been renting and staying with various hosts (mostly through AirBB) and this one has been the worst experience. If you are renting the place for the location, you are wining, but don’t expect much when it comes to today’s norm of hospitality.

Second time

The water pressure in the master was very low. The convertible sofas were extremely uncomfortable. Not enough plates, or glasses for the quantity of the house. Not enough seating for the the quantity. This was our second time reserving this house and am very disappointed at some of the issues, but loved the location.

House is nice but missing amenities

The house first of all was not very clean and the skillets were in horrible shape no large bowls We had one small bar of soap for each upstairs bathroom and the half bath had none and none in the kitchen All doors going out to decks were very hard to open The middle bathroom upstairs would not drain and I had to pull a large amounts of hair out the drain so it would drain The house for the price is not at all well equipped if you want to cook your meals Also the request that the tenants start a load of towels before they leave is concerning because how to you know the are cleaned properly I have rented many homes from VBRO and none have been like this one It needs work

Great extended family stay

We had a great experience. 11 in our group and we were very pleased. The location was great and close to a very nice beach area. Within good distance of shops and stores. It is a lot of stairs as expected but if worked out fine for our group. The downstairs bedroom was perfect for one of our party with disabilities, which made it very nice. Communication with property management was excellent. We had minor issue with access code, but within a couple minutes and a quick phone call it was resolved. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe. Overall it was a great experience and suited our needs perfectly. I would highly recommend it.

Overall, we loved the house. We had 4 families getting together for my 50th Birthday. There are a lot of stairs but it was tolerable. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, etc. The beds were comfortable. The pull out couch was not comfortable though. The ottoman pulled out into a single bed, which was very comfortable. We had plenty of great towels including pool towels. We did have some issues with cockroaches. The company did come and spray plus we put out some cockrock bait. The location was super close to the beach. We walked down every morning to watch the sunrise. The master bedroom could use some better blinds. The street lights kept the room well lit all night! We enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back.

Close walk to the beach

The condo was very close to the beach, so that was great! We also rented a golf cart to cruise to the other side of the beach which was fun. There are also several souvenir shops that are close by for shopping. The house is spacious for big groups and the beds are comfy. However, the house was not clean upon arrival and there was sand in the beds and we saw several bugs inside the house. It would have been nice to have items to clean the floors with besides a small broom. Also, the kitchen had a lot of dishes, pots and pans, but you only get the trash bags that are already in the can and one roll of paper towels. It would be nice to have at least one additional of those items and a few basic spices such as salt, pepper, etc.
