I was disappointed with our stay. It was our 20 year wedding anniversary and I booked this for the view and the pool. Pool was closed due to Covid, understandable. At time of booking it was not disclosed that the pool was closed so when I got the message that it was I asked if there was any compensation for the loss of that major amenity. Steve from Nancy's vacation rental sent me a short email me saying it was the HOA's decision, not theirs. I'm not sure what the HOA has to do with Nancy's rental company offering compensation for something they listed and pictured as a draw to book their property? That could have been handled better, even offering an early check in, or late check out would have been a nice gesture but we got nothing. I am a person who loves lounging at the pool and seeing the pool with the beach right below was a huge reason we booked and were willing to pay over $1,000 for 2 nights, so I felt a bit ripped off with the loss of the pool and no compensation for that loss.
The pros of this place are the view and the golf cart.
The cons are the ant infestation, outdated, ripped up patio furniture, no elevator and five flights of stairs to climb up and down to get to the golf cart. Not the best property for anyone with health issues, it's not handicap accessible. My husband has issues with his knee and I have back pain but we managed even with our luggage, wasn't easy. Another con is that there is no privacy on the balconies. Our balcony was separated by a bbq and chairs on one side, and a make shift lattice fence on the other. You can see and hear everything your neighbors are doing. We had a very loud family next to us so hearing them talk all night was annoying, hard to enjoy the view.
I've never left a bad review on airbnb, I've never had a bad experience, but I really wish I knew about all of the cons before I booked. Hopefully this review will help someone make a good choice. We saved up for a long time to do something extra special for our 20 year anniversary and this wasn't worth it.
