Great stay - minor housekeeping issues

This condo was exactly as advertised. We had a great stay! The view is beautiful! The beach was wonderful! The water is shallow for a long way out from shore, so this is great for smaller kids! Our only complaint was the housekeeping - minor trash on the floor and in drawer, lots of coffee grounds scattered throughout the drawer under the coffee pot - spent a lot of time cleaning dishes and drawers on the first day. Pool is open and warm! They are still working on the patio but the tile work looked pretty complete by the time we left. We would definitely stay again! Make sure to stop by Indian Shores Coffee - so good!

Great Memories

Nice place to stay, could use some updating. Doors didn't close all the way, handle fell off. The cleaning company could do a better job. We found things under the tables and couch. Overall the condo worked for us, it was in a great location. The whole process was easy from checking in to checking out. Thank you for allowing our family to rent your place. We made some great memories.

Beautiful Views!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unit was nice. Kitchen is very small. Master bedroom bathroom needs better lighting. Washer needs a very good cleaning as there was mold on the rubber gasket on the door opening. We ended up taking bleach wipes to it so we weren’t dragging our clean clothes over mold. The sliding doors in the master bedroom wouldn’t completely close and quite frankly need replaced.Loved the location and views from the balcony. With some upgrades and improvements this unit would be amazing!! Was great having beach gear and the heated pool and hot tub was very nice.

Spring Break Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sandcastle #802- We had a great stay during Spring break. The beach and pool had easy access and pool area looked clean. The beach was not really crowded, which was nice. The condo was equipped with most of our needs. The unit has a washer and dryer, but the dryer did not dry at first. We figured out the dryer has water filter like thing that has to be drained- it would have been helpful to have directions on this. The bedrooms were clean and had plenty of room for the six of us. The only real concern I had was the sliding glass doors to the balcony. Neither of the doors could lock-Not a real concern if you don't have small children.Overall it was a great condo.

Needs Maintenance

The location was great. However disappointed in the condition of the condo considering they charge a non refundable damage deposit. Rather you damage the property or not. Why aren't these deposits being used !? The door knob on the other bedroom was constantly falling off. Shower curtain fell down multiple times while showering! There's a hole in the master bath wall and electrical issues. As there are burnt cords! Not to mention the dryer still being taped up and not fixed. We called. Complained as someone in the group was shocked from turning a light on. We complained about that and the fact that we found broken glass in the silverware drawer. We got offered a room that was even less private for 2 couples. We didn't take it. As a professional house cleaner. This condo needs a deep clean. The shower heads and bathtub facets seem neglected as well as simple dusting. I wasn't impressed with the cleanliness at all. But it definitely could have been worse. But after everything not even a simple discount for all the bull crap we went through was offered nor fixed. The area of the condo is great. Great beach great pool. Quiet family beach. Will not return to this condo ever.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time. The rental was nice but the sliding door needs fixed the handle had issues. The dishwasher was not working properly. But overall we had an amazing vacation. On another note we always leave stuff downstairs and never had issues over the years until this trip we had a paddle go missing to one of our paddle boards also a inflatable boat with paddle went missing. I know it's at our own risk just sad that we can no longer feel our stuff is safe . Just wanted others to be warned.

Very nice location but needs updates.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is amazing. The carpet was gross. It was ripped & the tack strip was exposed by the balcony & got me a couple times. We found a lighter next to one of the beds.The pillows were stained but they did bring us 2 new ones. The washer & dryer are a joke. 4 hours to dry clothes. Prior reviews say the same. The garbage disposal didn't work. All of the furniture is peeling & the bed was broken. No smart tvs & the multiple remotes are aggravating. The maids left the closet unlocked so I organized that. It really needs to be updated. The view is spectacular.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really appreciated how comfortable this condo was. Beautiful beach and not too crowded. Having so many different bed options worked great for our family. Plus having a hot tub along with the pool was great after getting chilly from swimming in the gulf. Love the keypad door lock. I’m not sure why they didn’t just give us the code in our welcome email instead we had to go to the office to pick up a packet and “keys” from their mailbox.

Sand castle 1 - 802

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Super location, great value- great for a small group as it has a king and 3 queen beds between its 3 bedrooms. Super view from balcony. minor issues with the unit are compensated for in the low rental price. Washer & dryer & balcony furniture need updating, and a universal TV remote would go a long way- we had trouble figuring out the multiple (6+?) working & not working remotes. Outside grilling area is inadequate for building. People waiting for grills/ sharing space on grills and bringing grilled food back inside because no outside eating area. Loved the beach and area!!

Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was nice but could use some updates. The washer and dryer in the unit were literally falling apart and held together by tape. The closet doors in two rooms broke. The ac was broken one of our nights and my wife is 7 months pregnant. So I called Florida Lifestyles and they were extremely rude and not helpful whatsoever. Especially a lady named Vicky. We rent through them every year for the past 30+ years and now will start to reconsider. Overall property was nice and it was a nice vacation it's just unfortunate of the the problems we had and the lack of help we got.
