This property had. 9.8-star rating when I booked. I do not book VRBO properties under a 9 star. Oh my goodness was I surprised upon check-in. I would give this condo a 10-star for location, but only 5-stars for the property condition. Large cracks on walls, peeling paint, huge crack in bathtub, completely cracked & taped mirror closet door, hard hard mattress in bedroom, no sheets for pull up couch, poorly stocked kitchen.We had a great time, it's just not what I expected from a 9.8-star from VRBO.The balcony, beach, lap pool & hot tub we're very enjoyable.

Fantastic location and view!

We expected a beach front condo but didn’t expect how completely awesome it was to have quick access to the beach with a spectacular view! So close to area attractions and even the IGA grocery had everything we needed. Definitely October is the best time to come!! Make sure to bring your own shampoo/conditioner, soap/body wash and hair dryer. You will need to bring/buy your own

Fantastic condo and location

My wife, dog and I had a fantastic stay at the Florence. The condo was perfect for us, once we got the door code figured out, everything else was super easy. Parking was a breeze, luggage carts were super handy getting everything up in one trip. Kitchen and amenities were great. One of the best things for us though was just the proximity to everything we wanted/needed to do. The beach is right there! It's also a 6 min walk on the beach to Wanna Wanna if you want some snacks or live music. Even walking to Claytons in the other direction wasn't that far. Everything is close and super dog friendly which was a must for us. We loved our stay and would book again without hesitation.

Beautiful views

I spent most of my time on the deck because of the gorgeous view of the ocean. This condo was comfortable and I really loved the large TV in the living room. I needed a repair on the toilet while I was there and Laura responded promptly and it was fixed within hours. i gave this condo a 4 for one reason, maintenance. The sliding door in the bedroom closet was rusted and wouldn't stay on the rusted tracks. This was present when I checked in and should have been noticed and taken care of long ago. I didn't report this while I was there as I didn't want to [put up with the door replacement. I just left it open. Overall the condo was liveable. I think it is best for one or two people or possible a family with smaller children.

Disliked: Communication
The location is stunning! The A/C is great along with the dehumidifier. Lots of towels and beach supplies. The unit is very quite with an excellent patio door. There were a few concerns - There needs to be an oven mitt. I recommend at least one days coffee for the supplied coffee maker. The mirror closet door was cracked top to bottom with just clear tape holding it together. There are no spices. One sample size shampoo for 2 people for 4 days is not sufficient. The microwave light was out. The small kitchen size does not allow for a dishwasher. The tall, king-size bed was nice. Televisions were nice. Communication was probably the biggest challenge. I texted the male at the bottom of the welcome sheet about no coffee for the coffee maker and got no response. I did receive several e-mails before we arrived, but no welcome text upon arrival. When we left, I sent a text stating that we were gone and stated thanks. I got no response from that text either. I try to be very thorough with my reviews to benefit future tenants and the owners. I hope this was helpful. Overall, this was a very nice place and the dog loved the area also. We would stay here again. Thanks, Mike

Excellent location

The building is right on a nice beach, pet friendly, and with pool, SPA and plenty of hoses to clean feet and paws after the beach. You can walk to bars and restaurants or drive just a few minutes. Location is about 5 to 10 mins drive of most boats docks (dolphins watch, parasailing...), and from Sea Turtle Inc, birding and nature (alligators & more turtles), bird watching trail. There's everything you need in the condo, except for a dishwasher. King size bed is all right, a little noisy when one move. Linen were smelling clean and fresh when we arrived. Decor is beachy and nice. AC and dehumidifier works fine, they are a little noisy, being right next the Master, but they always are anyway! Ceiling fans are working well and are silents. Condo is an end unit on one side, so only 1 neighbor next door. You're on the first floor so it's a quicker access to the garage and the beach and you still have a nice view of the beach and of the sunrise, just one flight of stairs and no necessary a need to wait for the elevator if you can walk the stairs. But if you are on a lower floor, you barely can hear the people on top of you, which is exceptional in condos! The plus is that there's no one under your feet, only the garage, so you don't bother the others and have no complains. The condo needs some work here and there due to its age, I saw some comments from reviewers, but you're on vacations, it's not your property, just enjoy the beach and overlook the details! We did enjoy.
