Everything was good for us. We were in town for the UGA/FL game and would stay there again next year if it available. We were up and gone out a lot but everything fit our needs.

Check in, check out, pet areas, proximity to beach, location on the island, neighborhood, all fantastic! The actual unit was clean and well kept. Minor inconvenience with the air conditioning, but was sorted out within a few hours. Overall very pleasant experience and we would stay here again. Pretty handicap accessible as well.

The condo is a short walk to beach. Has supplies for cooking, and going to the beach. We would not stay here again. The complex has a Karen that will leave you multiple parking violations. If they could fix that it would be great. When we left there was 4 other families saying the same thing. I felt like I was harassed the whole time (I was). We were also told by the rental place, every thing we were doing was fine. There is lack of communication with this place and the people running it.

Condo was pretty much as advertised. Could have used some maintenance on shower faucets and washing machine. Great location...easy to get to beach and restaurants. Would stay there again. Only issue was with condo parking police.

Great!
I’ll list the negatives first to get them out of the way. The beach access is sand, and you have to walk a good ways to find a wooden beach access point. That was hard with the kids and wagons. There is also a neighborhood Karen who acted like she owns the pool. Literally called management on all the people at the pool because there was “a storm coming” that never showed up. Very annoying. The condo itself was nice, but very hot. The fans did not do much to help with the temp at all. BUT the condo was large enough for all 4 adults and my two kids, the kitchen was a nice size for one person to cook at a time, and it’s in a great location to everything.

Great Location Not Far From Beach
I would rate the accommodations as average, clean but in need of a refresh. Online pictures are either old or enhanced/touched up. Furnishings are a bit dated and walls, baseboards, etc in need of painting. Patio/balcony area was not well kept and the sliding screen door was extremely difficult to open so we did not use the area.

Good for what we needed but nothing great
Property was good for what we needed, but it is evident nothing has been updated in a very long time. When we went to open the curtains, the entire pole fell off the wall hangings. The couch and the furniture had stains and were very old. The sliding door was very hard to open even the slightest bit. The smell of the property also was a smell of all the old furniture. We also turned on the air and the smell that came from the system was really stinky for some time before we had it running for awhile. We liked the distance to the beach and to downtown. The check in and out was very easy too.

Florida get away
Spacious condo. Beds comfortable. Needs some serious cleaning and maintenance. No outside light by door difficult to see numbers on the lock, door dirty, patio dirty couldn't sit out there, very musty scent in condo, water dripped in tub, kitchen faucet no pressure. Try to open door wall very difficult to open. Windows the same, but had black mold and bugs on the edges. Despite all we made the best of it.

Moving beds
The location was nice. Neighbors were nice. We wasn’t able to get local tv stations. Beds in all the rooms rolled easily. Headboard on bed wobbled in the first bedroom. No safety bars in the shower. Chain for the light in the second bedroom was broken off. Not able to use the ceiling light. No shade nor thick curtains in the main area. The patio door. No privacy. Unsafe chair in main area. Not able to sit in it. It tilted over easy. It would have been nice to have had basic cable available in the bedrooms. Two of the visitors was handicapped and needed to rest more. Furniture in main area wasn’t very comfortable. Straight back chairs at the table was only comfortable for a while. But they were nice. Rugs in main bedroom had no rubber backing on them. Not skid proof. No water pressure in the kitchen sink.
