Great getaway!

Loved our stay here! Pics were exactly what the unit looked like. Updated, clean and cozy - exactly how I’d decorate a beach house. Loved the well stocked kitchen and throw blankets on the comfy couches. 5 min walk down the boardwalk to the beach and rt across from golf cart parking if you rent one. Would stay again in a heartbeat!

Great property, perfect location

Property was great with plenty of room for family. Location was only 5 minutes walk to beach. Next time, we definitely will rent a golf cart since board walk allowed golf cart access, but driving vehicle access was only 3 minutes drive up the road.

Great for a family

We rented this home at the same time as a few friends who rented condos in the EC development. It was perfect resting place in between beach trips and quick jumps into the pool! The walk to the beach was so-able with little kids, but I would definitely recommend renting a golf cart if you can!

Great Property

Had a great time at this property and everything was very clean. Only thing which was probably my own fault was I thought it was right in the beach because of the image in the listing of the boardwalk. But the walk to the beach is no problem at all really. Overall a great property and place to spend your vacation time at.

Home away from home...

We had a really nice time. I wish I could've stayed longer. Property was easy to get to and the beach is a quick golf cart trip away. We had a small issue with the AC not cooling but the property was quick to react fixed our concern. Will definitely return hopefully for a longer trip.

Nice space

Spacious and great location. Only issue was a clogged drain in the main bath, had to unclog it in order to use the shower. Closet doorknob wasn’t functioning properly and a guest was locked inside.

Sweet vacay spot

We loved the condo. It was very clean. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed to cook and grill. Access to the beach was perfect. It was probably a 5-7 minute easy walk (with no traffic). Our kids are turning 4&5 this summer…if they were much younger we probably would’ve benefited from renting a golf cart. Golf cart parking (for peak season) is right across the parking lot from this unit, so super convenient. We loved our stay and plan to come back!!

Beach trip

Loved the location and we really had a great time. I wasn’t a fan of the sheets on the bed. We also couldn’t lower the air-conditioning. It was set at 74 and couldn’t be moved beyond that. So it was a little warm especially at night.

Gross place to stay

1) The living room carpet was filthy with several stains and food crumbs 2) Couches were filthy 2) A used deodorant canister was found near bedside of small bedroom 3) Blue tablets of some sort were found on floor near master bedroom 4) Master Bedroom tub didn't drain well at all which was really disgusting to bathe in 5) We got locked out of our Villa for quite some time due to a dead battery of the entry keypad 6) Not enough towels Felt really bad for my family to stay in this place ***Would really like a refund of some sort***
