Outdated but perfect for a short weekend. Beautiful view easy access to the beach. But this condo should be cheaper compared to the updated units we saw.

outdated property

The property was very outdated. The carpets in the unit smelled horrible, the fridge was rusted inside and out, and the bathtub slip mat was peeling. The shower head was detached from the wall and also rusted. The furniture needs cleaning and updating.

Poor Experience

Upon arrival at the 2-bedroom condo I had reserved, I discovered that one of the bedrooms was infested with bed bugs. This infestation made the room completely unusable, effectively reducing my rental from a 2-bedroom unit to a 1-bedroom unit for the duration of my stay. Physical discomfort: I sustained multiple bed bug bites that were painful, intensely itchy, and caused considerable distressReduced accommodation: Despite paying for a 2-bedroom property, I was only able to utilize one bedroomDisrupted vacation: The situation created ongoing anxiety and discomfort throughout what was intended to be a relaxing getawayHealth concerns: Bed bug bites pose potential health risks and required ongoing attention during my stay. We checked out on June 26th I have emailed, called, and messgaed and still have not received a response.

Just a place to sleep

The furniture and beds are uncomfortable. Both showers were dirty. The master shower barely has any pressure because it streams out of the faucet. The counters and cabinets are chipped off, along with a broken dishwasher handle. You have a 2nd floor view of the beach but that also includes a very close view of the condos local rat nest that is home to several large rats. The condo needs repair and updating especially for what they charge you to rent it. So if location and just a place to sleep uncomfortably is what you are looking for, this is your place. Otherwise, rent elsewhere

Unsatisfactory

I do not like to complain but I will share my experience with you in hopes that it is corrected. The front bathtub has a constant drip which causes the bottom of the tub to turn dark. We did not use the front bathtub. In the front bedroom the box springs were broken and laying on the floor. A maintenance man did fix the bed, but we suspected bed bugs. After the first night's stay the lady sleeping in the front bedroom had bites on her face, arm, and ankles. I reported but nothing was done. So, we were not able to use the front bedroom while we were there. These are lot of inconveniences, and I have not been compensated for the issues. A partial refund would have been nice. So, I am sorry, but we were NOT satisfied with our condo.

Great

We had a great time at this condo. Perfect location, loved that it was at the center of everything we wanted to do. The property could use some updates but we aren’t a picky group. Only downside was we weren’t sure if the sheets were changed or just flipped inside out. Overall it was perfect for our friends.
