Issue with door lock
Enjoyed it immensely. Location, view and accessibility all very good. Only issue was with the lock box for the key. The lockbox seems old and rusty and couldn’t get it open. Called the number and she was very helpful. Gave us the code to the housekeeper keys and that is how we got in. Just a suggestion but maybe it is time to upgrade the door lock to a combination. ( also there was no ice bucket)

The room is just lovely. You can't beat the beautiful ocean views from the outdoor Lanai. The AC works amazing and the cable and Wi-Fi were excellent as well. The sofa is very comfortable and there is a lot of storage. Be sure to note there are drawers underneath the bed for additional storage. The bathroom has great water pressure in the shower. The bed is very comfortable. There were plenty of bath towels and beach towels too. The mini fridge and freezer was just the right size and the wine opener, plates and utensils came in handy. They were easy to communicate with and very responsive. I left a pair of pants that they are working to return to me. Overall, it was a fabulous stay and great value. I would definitely stay again. There are a couple of things that I think would have improved our stay such as better pillows and better curtains. The curtains are very sheer and you can almost see through them and it's very bright, very early as a result. I also would love to see a shower hose for us ladies and it makes it easier for cleaning. The soap that was provided was eco-friendly but I didn't care for it. Of course this is a VRBO so we brought our own and that was just fine. The instructions were very clear on everything and the property is fantastic. It's very quiet and it's very well kept. We weren't sure if the bar was a service bar or not based on the pictures but to our delight the bar was open from 3:00 to 9:00 daily and Mark, the bartender, was great.
