Great Place, Great Location
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. When we first stepped into the condo, we noticed how bright it was. We were also impressed with the cleanliness.The location of this condo was ideal. It was the closest to the beach from this complex. It also was a 2 minute drive to the golf course, shopping, restaurants.Communication with the owner was exceptional. We experienced a minor issue when we first arrived. Courtney responded to my email within and five minutes and had the issue resolved promptly. Would highly recommend this rental to anyone.

Partial Refund Needed
I did not get to stay in the condo that I paid for. Surprisingly when my family and I arrived another family had already occupied the unit. The unit was double booked. The owner of the condo unit was helpful and helped got us another unit. However, i am very frustrated with the situation at hand. I would like a partial refund and I need to discuss this with someone. Please reach out to me with a contact person.
