Wonderful Property
Shades of Summer was an excellent property. The kitchen was fully stocked and the condo had anything you could ask for. The Gulf Coast team quickly answered any questions we had and were very helpful. The golf courses and other facilities was great. We would definitely stay here again. Also would use Gulf Coast again.
The communication with the managing agent was not great. We got a message that we needed to give a carpet cleaning company access after day 2 (clearly from previous stay) and requested an alternative day to the one suggested and never heard back.

Mixed Review
The overall stay was mixed. First the property manager did not contact the resort community, thus we not able to use the amenities for the first two days. We did receive a very small refund but it did not make up for this issue. The house was clean a decorated well, however the house smelled like old fish. We used 6 cans of air fresheners but it never got rid of the smell entirely. Lastly there was a hole in the ceiling of the entry way which made a lot of noise when the wind was blowing. Overall the community was excellent. The amenities were great!
