2/10 Terrible

Disappointed

The place is very clean and convienent to the beach, store,walking/cycle paths. However, I have rented from VRBO many times before and this place was the poorest in decor. You are greeted at the entrance way with two plastic chairs fron Walmart and a small rusted table. Inside is dark and the living room furniture definitely needs to be replaced. The base of the coffee table and sofas is deteriorating. The furniture on the outside porch overlooking the lagoon was filthy as was the table. I do understand pollen in the air but this furniture looked to have not been cleaned in ages. At least cover it! Very disappointed and will not go through Island rentals again.

Ronald B., Rehoboth in Massachusetts.

Great location on the lagoon just two minutes from the beach. Unit was very clean and well equipped.

Overall we were very happy with the condo. The master bedroom is large and the king bed was comfortable. The kitchen has plenty of counter space and lacked nothing. The living room/tv room was good although the furniture is a bit dated, but still acceptable. The bathrooms, however, are poorly lit and additional lighting is needed. The only other negative was that the adjoining unit was being renovated and it was quite noisey at times.

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful villa

This is a wonderful location. Very peaceful with the lagoon right out the back that you can see from the living room, deck, or screened in porch. Beach and pool are a short walk across the street. Villa is beautifully furnished. Everything was spotless. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had about any utensil you could imagine. Excellent location with many shops and restaurants a short drive away. Directions to log into the Internet were readily available. Unfortunately after driving over 1100 miles to get here we were only able to enjoy it for 3 of the 7 nights due to the mandatory evacuation for Huricane Matthew. Thankfully we heard that this villa did not sustain any damage from the storm, so we want to return again, hopefully in late spring/early summer. We would highly recommend this for anyone's vacation.
