Updates needed

When we arrived at the condo we were very pleased. However, as we surveyed the condo we noticed many things that need to be updated. There were two bedside lamps that did not work (one didn't even have a light bulb in it) in the master bedroom, the shower caddy was rusted, the couch had several stains on it, the iron did not work (it had a piece of tape on the plug, which could have been a fire hazard), no instructions on the TV (which had multiple remotes that didn't work), one of the deck chairs had a hole in the seat. I hate to complain but these items above should be looked into. Overall, our stay was nice, but unless updates were made, would not stay in this condo again. Might find a different condo in the same building.

disappointed

Ceiling fan in living room, fins are covered with dust. All window shutters need to be cleaned. Both bathtub drains very slow (standing water while you shower). The two lights above dining room table did not work. Had to keep flipping switch up and down until the kitchen light would come on. The 2nd bedroom window on the North side needs to be sealed. When the wind blows it whistles loud enough that it is difficult to sleep. Ended up taping all around window. Fire alarm went off 3 times in one week. Had to walk down 32 flights of stairs. Stain on arm of sofa. Dining room chairs are stained, cushions need to be replaced. I had read a review in November on a October renter's review that basically had the same remarks that I just made. Nothing was corrected when we got there on January1,2023. Embarrassing when company came. Will look elsewhere.

Not worth what it cost!

This property needs some serious updates. The tub in the master bath is an accident waiting to happen. It is very hard for old people to stand comfortably. The bottom is concave. The kitchen is not well equipped either. We were constantly washing dishes which I don't mind. I would not stay in this unit again but I really liked Island Royale.

Good Bones

The condo has nice floor plan. The balcony is roomy and large and location is great. Here is the downsides the owners really should consider. First, the cleaning service. We had dishes with dried food on them, ceiling fan had a half inch of dust on it. Also, when we got their one of the tubs was full of water. Just not clean. Second, the furniture. It was so stained and dirty we were uncomfortable sitting on a few pieces. I mean really stained, like my husband wondered if a child had gotten sick on a chair. It’s time to update the furniture. The condo just has so potential to be so much more.

Not pleased with my stay

Upon check in-the floors were filthy. The washer and dryer are in poor condition, not energy efficient at all. The furniture has stains on all areas. The drawers in the master are not secure and will fall out.

Family Vacay 2022

This cozy condo was perfect for our family of 4. Loved the decorations, wasn’t overwhelming with beach deco. Had just the perfect amount to make it feel home-like. The beds were super comfortable. Loved being on the top floor too, had such an amazing view. The grounds are clean and loved the fact that there was Security available. Kitchen was stocked well for what we needed. AC worked wonderfully (family got cold but I was perfectly comfortable). We loved that it was nice and quiet. Elevators worked well without long waits. The parking assigned to our condo was PERFECT! Right be the elevators and close to beach entrance so we were able to leave cooler and beach items without having to haul it all up and down daily. To the owners: Thank you for sharing your beautiful condo with us! We will definitely stay here again. We can’t find anything we’d like to change about your space. Thanks!

Weekend getaway

I booked this on a last minute decision and didn’t regret my impulse booking one bit. Everything was as pictured. Views were beautiful. The unit’s parking spot was right near the pool entrance and beach access, which was perfect. I just left a lot of the kids’ beach things in the car instead of hauling them back and forth up the elevator. I’d definitely stay here again.
