Convenient
Everything we needed to have a great stay was right at our fingertips. Lazy river, pools, hot tub, beautiful beach, restaurants, The Publix...everything close by. There was so much we could have done, but we just enjoyed the resort and its amenities! I have stayed at many places but check in here was so easy! Lovely vacation!

Perfect Family Vacation
We had a wonderful time. The condo was exactly as advertised and everything was clean and in working order. The lazy river and pools were amazing as well as the bay where we did a lot of swimming and snorkeling. We look forward to another stay.

Lazy River still tops
Good stay overall
Lazy River still tops !
Property beginning to show a little age in spots.
This unit had a couple age issues but ok.
Bedding was fair, king mattress was very very hard and uncomfortable. Dishwasher was broken but replaced during stay. Cleaning crew used a very strong masking air freshener prior to arrival that was unpleasant.

Great get-away
Our stay was well-deserved and greatly enjoyed. Me and my friends have all had issues in the past couple of months and we so needed this getaway for peace of mind, rest and relaxation. We got to check in about an hour and a half earlier, which was great. We had only one issue however, the air conditioning wasn’t working properly..However, RealJoy was on top of the issue in getting it fixed. we had great feedback and communication with the RealJoy property management. We even extended our extended our stay by one day, we were offered as discount for the extra day, so why not stay!!
All in all a great time was spent by us all…
