Not as expected.

When we first arrived, the girl couldn’t find our reservation. Very unfriendly. We asked for towels 3 times. Never received towels. There was 5 towels for a family of 5 for 3 days stay. Ended up buying towels for ourselves. The first morning we were there, 2 men and a woman used a code, opened our door at 6:15 am. Very unnerving and scary. Was NOT cleaning nor maintenance. I notified property management 3 times. Nothing was ever done to correct this, only an apology, and an apology for such is not enough after the money we spent to book with this condo. Will never book here or through Vacasa again.

Misleading property listing—beware

While this condo was in a gorgeous location with a very pleasant staff, I must warn others that this listing was seriously misleading. The title and pictures include an outdoor swimming pool, hot tub, and splash pad. The amenities listed also include a grill area. However, upon checking in and getting to our room, we realized that these amenities were taped off and not available due to construction. We spoke to the concierge and these areas have been closed for a year and are expected to be closed for another year or more. This, to me, seems like a conscious decision made by Vacasa who manages this property. Upon checking other Vacasa listings for this property there were also no mentions of these areas being closed off. If you make the decision to book this room and are a coffee drinker please remember to bring filters as there were none provided! All in all, we had a very pleasant stay but were not able to make an informed decision due to lack of information. Check out Camille’s and Dewey’s for some awesome food!

For such a short trip of one day it was everything I asked for as far the view of the ocean. The bed was very uncomfortable and needs a new mattress. I slept in the bunk beds. Was unable to use the jacuzzi because of the switch from shower to bath tub didn’t work.

Beautiful beach

The beach is beautiful. We were for the most part happy with the resort. The outdoor pool was closed which was a bummer. We also did not get to get in our room when we were supposed to, 45 mins late. No linen for the sofa sleeper and not enough towels. I would definitely go back to the resort but not thru vacasa-horrible communication .

Not bad but not great.

The place wasn't a bad stay there were not enough towels available for swimming, or extra towels and had to pay for laundry onsite. Also, they did not provide linen for the pull out couch which we wanted to use. There were no extra linens. We called fist night there and they did not bring the linens till last night of stay. Then they only brought 2 blankets-no sheets. Just felt unorganized in that way. I have stayed at other vacasa properties that have been amazing.

Dirty

This property was dirty. There was dirt all on the walls. The bed had blood smeared on the bed cover and when we called to have it changed so we could go to bed( which was 1 in the morning) they said someone would contact me shortly and no one ever did the entire stay. Also when we pulled the couch bed out, there was trash and mouse poop. The was also a rat trap that was set up in the closet with the water heater. I stayed here for a family vacation with my family with two children and a 7 week old baby. Not happy having to be concerned about what potential germs and dirt my baby could be exposed to

Great Condo

We really enjoyed our stay in this unit. It was clean, decorated nicely, and had plenty of kitchen tools for cooking. The only complaint we had was the bed. The king bed is horribly uncomfortable. I never complain about the beds at these places even if I’m not entirely happy with it, but this bed is bad. Very lumpy and stiff, it desperately needs to be replaced. The bunks beds are good though.

The property has a great location! The room was larger than expected from the pictures. We did have some garbage left in the room upon arrival. We notified the staff and they were more than willing to send up someone to address. There was no need due to it being small things in the fridge that needed to be thrown out. The cable in the room did not work due to damage that was sustained at some point to the box that may not have been reported. We did have a stormy few days so it would have been nice to be able to watch the weather or TV on these days. All in all the room was great the staff was good and there is quite a bit to do even in inclement weather.

Fun Vacation Spot

This is a great condo! It’s so close to everything, and it’s very clean and updated. The large tv on the wall in the bedroom is very nice. I just wish it had a Roku. However, there is one in the den, and there’s a DVD player in both rooms to use for the free movie rentals. I love that the chairs and table on the balcony are tall. I like to begin my day with a cup of coffee and my Bible on the balcony. It’s so nice to be able to look up from reading and see the sun rising and the waves crashing without having to look through bars. The beach is perfect, and it has chairs and umbrellas for rent if you need them. I will definitely stay in this unit again!

Apartment was fine, but the stay was disappointing.

The apartment was according to the description. There was a nice beach view and the balcony was private. Communicating with the property manager (Vacasa) was difficult. I reached out several times at the time of booking and inquired about the coffee maker, so I would have the proper coffee filters on hand on the first morning, and the responses came in late and were either missing information I was looking for or were misleading. (For the record, the coffee maker has a Gold filter, and coffee filters are not required. Although I had already purchased some and used them anyway.) We had trouble setting up the family room TV and I messaged Vacasa, and asked them to respond promptly, but never heard back. (I abstained from attempting to call, as I had before our trip, (I called VRBO and was transferred to Vacasa.) and it resulted in a transfer call to Vacasa where I was holding a very long time and eventually gave up. The instructions for the TV were not applicable as the TV was a Roku. My first impression at the check-in was not great. The lady at the reception just was not that friendly. One of the nights I was already asleep when I heard loud pounding at the door. The security guard accused my husband that our children of dropped an empty plastic water bottle from our balcony. He claimed that it could only have been our children, as they were the only children on the floor. My husband was sitting with our children on the couch of the time and assured him that it was not us. It was pretty upsetting and disturbing, as it was done in a rather unfriendly manner. (Not to mention, not sure how they knew that children from our floor dropped an empty plastic bottle.) It was nice to take walk on the beach, but the pool and hot tub were always crowded. Even if the inside pool was less crowded, I don’t think our children would have wanted to go inside as the area was not very appealing. (It was too cold to go into the ocean, so pool might have been an option otherwise.) The hot tub was fully occupied from morning till night. We never had a chance to use it. So, overall, it is not something I would do again. As I mentioned, the apartment description itself was not misleading. It was as described, but the service and the outside amenities were lacking.
