      "beware of hidden fees, we were told when we arrived we had to pay over double what we were told. The room was very out dated, remotes to tv's did not work and were stuck on max volume. Dust was caked in all the air vents, sliding glass door going outside was very hard to open and the lock did not work, but there was a piece of wood you could wedge in the door to lock it. one of the keys did not work. We were given wrist bands for the pool, which we did not use but upon check out we were told we had to buy them. MAKE SURE YOU READ ALL THE FINE PRINT!!!!!!!"

      "We thought we were getting a deal on a 1 BR 1 BA gulf view for a little over $115.00 per night - wrong - We had to pay an additional fee 0f $149.00 when we got there for cleaning, etc. When you get a deal that's too good to be true - believe me walk away. The bedroom was very tiny and up front next to a very noisy AC unit. The bathroom was so small that you actually walked through the kitchen to the bath. The WIFI was locked so you could not access - even with the code that was given. The until had a very bad odor when we checked in - we could not determine if it was from the bath or the kitchen because they were so closely connected - we ended up having to pour air freshner into the garbage disposal because of the odor. The bath tub would not drain, so when you took a shower, you also would take a bath."

      "The only thing this place is missing is a hot tub, I had a very pleasant stay, I dont understand all the bad reviews for this condo, it is what it is, if you're looking for a 5 star resort then dont stay, Dont stay and write a bad review because YOU were expecting more, I will stay again."
