🌴 Off-Season Value (November–February) SNOWBIRDS

November through February is our off-season, offering quieter beaches, cooler weather, and our lowest rates of the year. Guests interested in extended winter stays are welcome to ask about special monthly snowbird pricing. During this time, associations and owners may schedule routine maintenance, updates and improvements, so there may occasionally be nearby daytime noise between November 1 and February 28. Our reduced seasonal rates reflect this possibility.

6 / 10Average·Mar 2022
This property when we booked was everything we wanted. However days after paying our final payment we were switched to room 1505 due to a cabinet in bathroom not in on time. This unit was booked already around us too so???? We didn’t want to cancel our Mimi vacation last minute so we kept it. Anyhow 1505 was not up to par. Hangers located all around under tables and floor. Like they didn’t bother to sweep or clean. Bed was fine but fitted sheet was put on upside down. Which was ?????able to say the least. It was updated in bathroom but quality bad. The couch was wrote on and just looked dirty so we placed a sheet over it to just sit on it. I wanted to let anyone know when booking, if switched rooms ? Why . 1505 bad! Would have much rather have stayed in 1202 knowing it had updated items. We won’t stay at property again due to this and it’s just an older property that needs some updating.
