My stay

Upon arrival, check in was terrible. I was suppose to check in at 4, I wasn’t able to get in until after 6 because the home hadn’t been cleaned. The cleaning person arrived at the same time I did. I tried contacting someone about this but was unable to reach someone

The bathroom faucet leaked the whole time, not just a little leak, but ran a lot of water. There were no wash cloths (went and bought my own). When we first turned on the water in the tub it was black. The tub and bathroom sinks didn’t drain properly. The floors were dirty with sand. The master bedroom windows beed window coverings. The billboard outside the window is bright and the blonds aren’t enough to block it out. The mattress in the master bedroom was extremely uncomfortable. Either needs a whole new mattress or a mattress cover. It is as hard as a board! There is a cabinet door in the kitchen that is broke, as well. We were only there for two nights so I didn’t feel the need to call property management since most of this is a maintenance issue!

Great location, nice area. The room could use some upkeep, but I would stay there again. Didn't like how the maintenance people blew dirt and dust all over the vehicles.

Place is nice and well appointed

Condo is nice, I had everything I needed. The area around the condos tends to be loud at night. I've stayed in this area once before and both times there was always revving motorcycles and cars all night.

Not happy!

When we arrived, it smelled like cleaning chemicals. Had to buy lysol to calm down the smell. There was sand left in the chair in the bedroom. Sheets were not clean. Had to buy sheets to sleep on. Windows were not cleaned after previous visitors. Booked because it was gated, but the gates were never locked. Elevator had heat blowing which was miserable. The area below on the ground was left dirty with towels or sheets on the ground.

The condo is nice and clean but.....

The condo was clean but I have to agree with some of the other commenters on here, the bed in the couch is not comfortable at all, there is a bar that is on your back. The bedroom bed is comfortable but the traffic outside is so loud it makes it impossible to sleep. I had to turn the tv up loud to drown out the street noise. The kitchen needs cookie sheets PLEASE, I had to use a casserole dish to cook my biscuits. For the money you pay it is worth the money, just take ear plugs lol the pool is nice, except for having to listen to the people ride the go carts on the loud wooden track next door. The walk to the beach isn't too bad. There is a public beach access to the left of the tall condo across the street. The only thing I didn't like was there is not a water hose to rinse the sand off, we improvised and filled a sandcastle bucket from the ocean and toted it to the walkway to rinse the sand off, just an idea. And if you are handicapped they do have parking there for you to park by the walkway. All in all we had a good trip, if you get a new sofa bed and cookie sheets it would have been a higher score! I don't know what you could do about the noise from the passing cars outside. Oh and the Mexican restaurant below the condo is AMAZING!!

Clean and nice.

Wished they wouldn't have set AC to their liking could have had more toilet paper than 2 rolls, for a 7 day visit. Definitely will look for a room away from road, it was to loud every night.

Wow!

Directions were spot on as to how to get there and get up to the home. They had everything provided that I needed. Beach towels, cards, basic necessities. The home was clean and perfect for what we needed. Everything worked wonderfully! My husband was so elated that I surprised him and he was even happier once he saw where we were stayIng. I appreciate you for making this wonderful for us. You provided everything and didn't miss a beat! There was only one thing, advise others not to use the dish washer or either have it fixed. That was all. I wouldn't mind staying again. Thank you!!!

Loud and Vacasa was not accommodating. Don't rent through this company.

We rented this unit. After arrival I turned the AC down, within the hour it was leaking water on top of the electrical wires of the water heater and onto the floor of the laundry room. Someone came out to blow out the line, but it continued to leak over night. He came out again and cleaned the line more. After that the AC was fine. We were woken at 6:30 in the morning to loud construction for 2 days in a row. I asked to be moved to another location and was told they do not move people for that reason. John told me they would be finished with the construction the first day. Unfortunately that was not true!!! The unit was not the cleanest. There was dried toothpaste spit in the bathroom sink and dead bugs in the corners of the vanity. I has to sweep upon arrival and the blanket for the sofa bed smelled like vomit. It had to be washed before use. If you want to cook food make sure to bring something to put the leftovers in. So much for a relaxing vacation. I'm not one to normally complain either.

Beautiful and a great deal!! Only a block from the beach.

The room's decor was very nice and up to date. Everything you need is included and price was very reasonable. Is close to quite a few amusement parks which is great but can get a little loud and bright at night.
