I’m not one to ever post reviews, good or bad. But I felt obliged to post my experience staying at this condo in hopes that much needed changes will be made.
- Let me first say that the location, proximity to the beach and restaurants and the view from the balcony were great!
- When I first arrived and entered the condo it was very warm and stuffy. I looked at the thermostat and it was showing the batteries were dead, therefore the A/C wasn’t working. I immediately called maintenance and they said they would send someone right over. 3 hours later no one had shown up so I had to run to the store to buy batteries myself.
- Also, when I first arrived, the kitchen counters looked wet all over. I assumed it was still wet from just being cleaned. When I tried to wipe it to dry it off so I could set my stuff down, I realized it was a bright yellow oily residue. It didn’t have a scent to it, so I’m not sure what it was.

- There was a hairball on the kitchen floor and long black hairs on the sheets in the bedroom.
- The shower/bathtub didn’t drain and a light was out in the bathroom.
- And this was the kicker…… when I arrived, there was a parking pass for me that had been pre-filled out by the condo people with my check out date, etc. About the 3rd night there, I went out to my car to pick up dinner one night around 6:30. There was a blue notice on my car saying my license plate had been recorded and my car would be towed because I was parking illegally. The reason written on the notice was the “check out date didn’t have the year” on my parking pass. The condo people had written 10/8 as my checkout date and apparently it should have rea
