Very caring and responsive owners

Squeaky bed was replaced the same day. Refrigerator never stopped running replaced the next day. Suggested they should have a charcoal barbecue they bought one and four days later Eric installed it.

Location is great; enjoyed downtown Melbourne. Our daughter works downtown so we had opportunity to see her often. When we had issues with the rental, we received immediate response to fix the problem. Owner was very good to work with. Hope to visit again soon.

Perfect!

I’ve now stayed in 2/3 units at this precious house and have fallen in love with both of them! Ashley is amazing to work with and the extra things she does for her guests are more appreciated than she knows (from baked goods to Trash bags, papertowels, TP, etc ) It’s my favorite place to stay in beautifuk Melbourne ❤️

Great property.

My stay at the Island Escape was very nice and private. I enjoyed having all the amenities like home. The location is close to everything: beaches, restaurants, night life, grocery stores included. The only downside to the triplex is the inside decor and furniture needs to be updated. The bed was uncomfortable and the futon was worse. I endure two cold nights during my stay and could not get the fireplace lit, but that’s my fault for not utilizing Ashley’s assistance. I’m sure it was a easy fix. Lol-overall it’s a great place and I would definitely recommend this unit to friends and family. Thank you for the rental.
