property kept well condo needs update!

need a new hair dryer and maybe some games/puzzles, but otherwise was clean and well equipped

We found this condo to be perfect for the two of us. Everything is as stated in the listing. The only issue we had was that the bed in the master bedroom was very high and since I’m vertically challenged (under 5 feet) I had a very hard time getting into it to go to sleep!

The property manager is in her late 80's. She met us there, opened it, gave us the keys, She told us about her husband with dementia who she can leave safely at home for a little while..... we never got our two suitcases in yet, standing in the kitchen/doorway. then she left. We knew we could reach her if problems. Tiny condo, a wall of mirror, dining table in living room, an ok sofa, decor is all about wine, and wine. Original old cabinetry, a very old fridge, plastic trim is quite yellowed. Nice dishes/silverware. Two pans, which look to be Goodwill purchases, the nonstick interiors badly worn and scratched. ( unsafe for use ). Stove unclean, cooktop not cleaned well. Carpet in living room/dining area in ok condition, though smells of stale smoker odor. Tiny bathroom original old formica decor. Dollar store cheap TP. No bar soap for showering. Bedroom carpet is very old, badly worn, badly stained. Mattress and box spring appear very new! Comfortable to lay on, but the smoker pervasive odor is in every room. I have respiratory reaction to that. There were tiny ( 1"x2" ) room scent things that were dried up, one in each room. We went to the Publix store 12 miles away to buy Febreeze, and better room fresheners. Barely made a difference. When weather cooled a bit, we opened all the windows/patio doors and that helped. Even the screened porch- odor. Manager questioned, previous owner very heavy smoker ( validated by a condo owner) new owner smokes. Listing says NON Smoking. Place reeks. Day ONE I unpack our groceries, into the refrigerator. Icebags in freezer. Day TWO - Marina for breakfast, sit outside, enjoy warmth and food. Walked , went back to condo. Then went to buy the Febreeze etc. Get back, after lunch time. I pour a glass of orange juice. It is WARM. SO I check freezer, our ice is water. Check food, all fridge food is warm. Go online check food safety to be certain. Had to throw most all OUT. Call manager. She has owner call us. He had been there a week, before we came. He said ( on speaker phone ) " The refrigerator stopped again?" Yes, we reply. IT had stopped while he was there. " I thought about buying a new one, but I cleaned it out thoroughly and it started working, when I left on Saturday" ( the day Before we arrived. We buy styrofoam coolers/ ice. Ice daily. New fridge came Thursday. Manager removed one of the 2 beach towels that day, never returned it. :O Glad to leave that condo.

Great location in a gated community. Nice restaurant with live bands playing right next door. Communication was excellent, property manager was easy to work with and was very helpful with check in.

Used the unit as overflow sleeping for family at holiday. Worked out great.

only thing was disappointed in was how it was advertised at $85 per night and came to around $180 per night with all the add ons. Should show entire price up front.

The representative Marianne was awesome. She met us at the gate and walked us through everything. Nice quiet retirement type community. The pool at the complex was great. A short walk down to the water to see manatees and even dolphins on our visit. Clean condo with all you need to live. Would stay again for sure.

Clean quiet property. Manager was easy to communicate with. Thank you!
