Charming home HORRIBLE CONSTRUCTION NOISE
This home is lovely and clean. However DO NOT RENT until they are done with construction. There is a tiny disclaimer line that says “construction noise 8-4:30/5 min-Fri” which I admit I did not notice however even if I had I would never have expected Jackhammering all day on the unit balconies in the courtyard where rhe pool is located. We woke to rattling walls INSIDE the unit at 8 am more than once. The parking directly in front of this unit was a. staging area filled with dumpsters, trailers and men working no more than three feet from the windows and doors. We could not even open the blinds. The noise and blocking of the doors made sleeping and loading and unloading luggage and groceries miserable. I would've never booked had the extent of this been disclosed. when i contacted the management they simply said i got a discounted rate to reflect this situation. that was also not mentioned in any way. i paid the advertised rate. not a discounted rate. one day it rained and water started dripping from the ceiling on to my niece as she sat in a recliner inside watching TV. i can only assume thanks the construction. I drove from Michigan with 3 kids and we were there a whole week. thats 5 days of brain rattling jackhammering all day for 5 days and a raining ceiling. They said the "broad exerpt" in the listing warned us and they did nothing wrong. A lie of omission is still a lie. Even kids know that. This was so shady and so wrong. The worst trip ever. NO INTEGRITY

Spring Break
There is major construction on the building, probably should not have rented out. They were banging and sawing and jack hammering all day. Workers got there at 7, o so not much sleeping in or any naps during the day. Had to turn the TV up really loud just to hear. Floor could have used a mopping, our feet were black from waking barefoot. Only 2 wash clothes, and we had to buy TP, only 1 1/2 rolls . Loved having the beach chairs, very short walk to the beach was great. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pots and pans. Owners told me about the construction 3 days before our trip and said it was listed on the reservation, but I never saw it.

Turtles Nest
Simple, clean, and convenient. An older woman could retire here. I stayed with my youngest son (20) and his girlfriend. I’m 59 and that’s just what I’m planning on doing (God willing). I walked to the beach each morning, where I enjoyed complimentary chairs and umbrella service. That ocean never ceases to amaze! I enjoyed soaking in the sun and cooling off in the ocean and the pool at “Venus” which by the way is 8 foot deep. Worked on a puzzle in the evenings. Overall great experience.
