Apartment was very nice and clean. The view from the balcony wàs exquisite! Luxurious lifestyle!

The condo was beautiful. It actually looked as good as it did in the pictures. I find that doesn't usually happen. Staff were very friendly without exception. At night in the small beach area, they lit torches and had a camp fire. Sunsets were gorgeous, and the weather was pretty perfect. We went to two different ball parks for spring training games while we were down there. That was pretty great.

The door lock didn't work properly. More than half of the time, it didn't lock. At night, we could use the flip lock and feel more secure, but during the day, it was a problem. I texted Christine, who was on vacation, and asked if there was a trick to it, and she assured me it should automatically lock within about a minute. It didn't, and we tried everything we could think of (slamming, messing with the doorknob, etc.) She said to let her know if we still were having problems and they would take care of it. Our fault that we didn't, but we had tickets to various events, and didn't want to get stuck waiting for someone to take care of it, or advertise to an unknown repair person that the place wasn't locked. We just didn't leave anything of value in the place whenever we left. But it was a bit unnerving. The first two days we were there, the carpet in the hallway outside our unit was being replaced. The floor was sticky with glue outside the unit, and they weren't always there to put down boards so that you could get out without stepping in it. Other than that, the traffic was pretty terrible in the Tampa area, and thank goodness for the restaurant at the pool area. It was impossible to even get into other area restaurants at times, so it saved us more than once.

The location was great.

As soon as you walk in, you are overwhelmed by the smell of mold/mildew. I had to open the slider to get fresh air. The place is not very clean as far as the carpet, walls and the mold/mildew in the bathroom behind the toilet. The couch is for looks and not actual use. It is very small, like a love seat and hard. It lays flat but only a child could fit on it. And it’s like sleeping on the floor. The pictures are deceiving, it looks bigger and spotless clean in the pictures. If they could clean up the carpet, walls, mold/mildew in bathroom and not advertise the couch to sleep on. This would be a place for a single person or couple to stay in the queen bed. I took photos, so I have those to show what I’m talking about.

It was nice and the view was amazing. The owner of the property unit we rented was extremely friendly, accommodating and nice.

The property was beautiful, the views were amazing and Christine (our host) was fantastic. She made sure we had everything we needed to include entry information into the property, internet and door access, etc. I’d heard other folks talking near the pool area about having to wait for that information which I’m so glad we didn’t. She was on top of everything prior to our arrival after a long day of travel it was so nice to just walk right in and have everything we needed. The beach area was very clean and we enjoyed watching the sunset from there. Also, the bed was pretty comfortable and we had everything we could’ve possibly needed with towels, shower stuff and all kitchen appliances and utensils!

The 1 elevator for the entire property was a pain but we’d read the reviews and were prepared to wait. Luckily we didn’t have to wait too long. Also, there was a small leak in the fridge but we saw that had been left in a review as well. This is not necessarily a dislike for our stay/host but it would be nice if the facility put in another pool or made the pool area bigger, it was always so packed!

The property was clean, private and it has a beautiful view.
