The condo is just like the pictures posted. The bedroom is east facing so if you are expecting a blackout to sleep in, think again. The marble floor are beautiful but do reflect a lot of sunlight in the early morning under the drapes.
The patio has great views but no seating. Which either makes you move indoor furniture out (which some of the furnishings seem to suffering from being used outdoors) The weather is beautiful now and the skyline view is there to enjoy. Also, during the day, you can watch the pool and sunbathers with a mask enjoy the pool. But all the pool recreation things are closed due to COVID only the lifeguards are out.
The kitchen has some practical use. We had no kitchen towels or paper towels to use. So when I tried to use the coffee maker and then after pouring the water and plugging it in, I realized that the coffee cups provided were too big for the machine and the button on the machine did not work so it turned on automatically. And before I knew it it began brewing plain water to the floor and I had zero absorbing towels to clean up. Needless to say early in the morning with my husband asleep and no water. Well, you can imagine my reaction.
The condo was clean when we got there unfortunately for us, even though we asked a cleaning lady in the hall to for extra towels... none were left.
Also when we called down to ask about ice we were just told that we had it in our room. There was zero direction that the ice maker was in the fridge. I’m not a person that lives in a double wide and has never traveled. I’ve lived in 7 countries and have travelled extensively. With AirBnB I have always found owners to give you a little note with things to know about the place. Even hotels have placards to help the guest out.
I’m sure I could have taken the time to contact DeeDee but I was on a vacation to celebrate my anniversary and go to a wedding and the LAST thing I want to do is be on the phone asking about the little details. This can be done electronically 😖.
Also, and I know that the owner has zero control over the excessive use of Mary Jane on the property. It is noticiable at many hours of the days. I believe that at one point in contributed to me needing to go across the street for some snacks.
Overall it’s a great place to stay off the strip but my expectations of the Palms Place and service was sub par.
