Florida stay

Our stay was very pleasant, it could’ve been a bit better with laundry in the room or a working pool (which was out of anyone’s control). Other than that, we really enjoyed the convenience of this location and the easy access to the beach!

Beautiful View

We had a great stay at this property. The view was amazing from the balcony and dining room. The price was great for the time we were there. Only complaint would be the coffee pots needed updated as both leaked all over the counter when you put water in them but that was a minor thing

Sunset View

I had an amazing stay at the rental condo! The view was absolutely stunning, with the beach and ocean just steps away, providing a perfect backdrop for relaxation. The amenities were fantastic, especially the beach chair and umbrella, which added a nice touch to our beach days. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy a beautiful and convenient beach getaway.

It’s ok!

Steps to the beach, beds are clean but condo needs immediate updating as curtain rod falling, walls/sheetrock trashed throughout, bath fan broken, blinds broken, ice maker doesn’t work. Other than this it’s close to beach.

Beautiful beach with great views and we saw a lot of dolphins and manatees one day. The construction was anticipated and they at least waited until 8 a.m. to start each day. Parking across the street because of construction was anticipated as well but the spot 011 had a big concrete curb in the middle. The office was helpful in giving us another spot. According to the description the closet of beach chairs and toys available for guests, is in fact not available and locked. It was still a great vacation and wonderful location. There a some good restaurants nearby and a short drive to grocery stores.

Great Vacation Spot

So nice being beach front and having the pool right there too was so nice to have options. Only downside is shared washer and dryer. But the pros of location and overall nice property to stay in outweigh that.

Great location, nice condo

We enjoyed our stay in this condo during spring break week. We were notified of the construction when booking and prior to our trip. Construction noise was as informed, but didn't interfere with our plans. We were amazed at how there were condos and houses all around, but not very many people on the beach. I do wish I had asked about the storage closet access - as we ended up buying three beach chairs and left them in the master closet for future vactioners. Our only dislike was the master bedroom mattress. It could really use a fluffy topper like in the other bedroom. Even though there is not a washer/dryer in the unit, there are some conveniently right outside the door. Be sure to bring quarters. All in all we had a great time, loved this location and condo.

Arriving views for a great price

Loved absolutely everything. Ran over to treasure Island to Crabbys on the pier on the second day. Love that. Loved the friendly tavern. There was a nice little coffee shop a half mile up the road with a little garden to sit in. That was nice. There was a restaurant we went to the first day. It was nice also. Good was good. The only bad thing I have to say is this, make sure you bring quarters because they want you to do your own beach towels, which I don't mind at all about picking up after myself. I understand that. Just a little heads up. 3.50 to do a load of beach towels, wash and dry. I wasn't angry about it. Just a tiny inconvenience.

Beautiful Views right on the ocean

There views and the rental were beautiful and the amenities are great - Having coffee on the balcony overlooking the ocean and the view are amazing. There is room to move and be comfortable. Made this a great and relaxing stay. This is very close to many nice restaurants within a few miles of this place. The beach is right outside the building. Would rent 505 again. Only issue was the parking space - the construction on the building caused the assigned space to be across the street- the one assigned was the only one available had a high cement support in the middle of the parking space - too high to drive over. There was no alternate place to park and the building office help was not helpful and was condescending about the issue.

OK stay.

View was good. The place was clean. The combination lock on the door was a nightmare! It would never lock and I spent 25 minutes out there sweating, trying to get it to lock. The place only has one elevator which created its own challenges and little to no shade at the pool unless you claim one of the tiki tables at 5am. People would claim them and not come back until the late afternoon.

Roach infested

I always like to give good reviews but this time, it was just too much. Although the condo appeared clean, it was infested with roaches. We killed at least 10 and the last morning when we got up before the sun and turned on the lights they were everywhere!!! Running inside the toilet bowl, in the kitchen sink, dozens of them running across the floors, it made me sick just thinking about them being in our food, clothes and beds! Also the first night our toilet was slow, by morning it wouldn't flush. We called Vacasa as directed and someone came within a couple of hours but was unable to fix it, he came back around 5:30 on Friday night to pick up his stuff and said he couldn't fix it and a plumber would have to come. I asked when he would be here and he said " I don't know, it's Friday night so I don't know if he will come tonight". He did not return that night nor the remainder of the trip, we never heard from anyone and when I sent a text message as directed I got a generic response saying no one was available at this time. We spent the remainder of the trip all having to share one bathroom. I spent an outrageous amount of money for 3 nights at the condo as a Christmas gift to my mom and daughter so that we could enjoy a special time together only to be disgusted, embarrassed and frustrated by the entire vacation. We've stayed at many VRBO type places and always had excellent experiencs, this was extremely disappointing. I sent a message stating I would like to speak to someone about my concerns however, as of today I have yet to hear from anyone. I am not the type of person to complain and I can overlook alot of things including a couple of bugs, but this was over the top when there are dozens of bugs and a toilet that never worked. I hope someone will contact me soon.
