When we arrived, the property had not been cleaned at all from previous renters. It was quite an inconvenience to place our luggage and belongings in a bedroom, and have to be displaced while the property manager could contact the crew to come in and clean. Especially since we had groceries, etc to unload. The crew did a quick clean, nothing great. The cleanliness was top rated on previous reviews, however we did not have the same experience. Our fee was refunded, appropriately.
The location is great. The pool is clean, steps down from the condo, and the beach was so quiet. We had to pool and beach to ourselves at times. The grocery store is across the street. The Surfin' Turtle was a daily treat to get Dole Whips and sundaes. The A1A has many restaurants and cafes to choose.
The kitchen had all amenities we needed and was well stocked.
There are no ceiling fans or standing fans hiding anywhere in the condo. Even with the A/C on, the condo felt damp and a little stagnant. It needs some fans available.
The bathrooms need hooks for towels and also garbage cans. There were no receptacles in the bathrooms, which I found lacking.
Also, the closets need some luggage racks or something to set suitcases on. We had suitcases sitting on the living room floor.
We utilized the pull-out couch for our kids (ages 7 and 9), but we had to move the more than (at least!) 200+ lbs coffee table out of the way first. The coffee table is not a good choice to have in a room where it may need to be moved daily for a bed set-up. We opted to leave the pull-out sofa out because we could not safely move the coffee table daily to break-down and set-up the sofa at night.
