Some units are hit or miss and for us this was a miss. The condo feels dated and need of bathroom remodel and maintenance. Furniture feels dirty from over use or need of deep cleaning. For example, the twin bedroom has lampshades that are wicker with dust and cobwebs. The owner has made some upgrades but the items that weren’t upgraded feel leftover from an old house. The floors were filthy and the cleaning staff used an overpowering febreeze spray that was toxic and we couldn’t air out of the house. Bathrooms sinks, bed linens and towels were all new and clean.
All of these things could be overlooked and given a 2-3 star hotel type rating. Unfortunately we had a very bad experience with major condo construction and scaffolding directly in front of the lanai and the bedroom the nights were were there. We left a day early because the noise and complete lack of privacy was completely intolerable and ruined our vacation. Imagine construction workers standing directly in front of the lanai banging and hammering non stop from 9-5 and looking in as you eat breakfast. It was horrible. After several exchanges with Enas blaming the repairs on “emergency” or excuses about why we were not informed ahead of time she did offer some small refund that did not even amount to a single night stay that we requested. This place was terrible for us and after speaking with the condo manager it is clear that the construction work was planned months in advance and affects the entire facility. I do believe that we were unlucky that it was directly in front of the unit at the time of our stay but Enas falsely claiming “emergency repair” is super shady and not honest. Major thumbs down for us. Take your money (or spend a bit more) and stay someplace nicer.
Only positive is that she let us check in an hour early and was quick to respond to my messages. That I appreciate.
