🌴🌴 Walk Out to Sapphire Beach 🐠🐠🐠

The condo was very comfortable and was equipped with everything I needed. I enjoyed the 1st floor patio that walked right out to the beach! The views of the water and tree lined beach were spectacular! Very relaxing inside and out!

The property is older, but the room was renovated, clean and comfortable. The location was amazing. We were just steps from the beach and the beach bar. The parking was easy. The kitchen was stocked well enough if you weren’t doing much cooking. I was disappointed there were no baking pans as I wanted to make a breakfast casserole. We were told there would be beach chairs but they were camping chairs which aren’t the same. We ended up buying chairs which were really overpriced on the island and left them at the condo. It appeared others have left floats and other water accessories where were stored in a cabinet. The condos do have enough lounge chairs. Sapphire beach is beautiful but very rocky. Bring water shoes. We did some beach hopping and just a few minutes drive were beaches that weren’t quite as rocky with calmer water. We spent evenings enjoying the soft sand steps from our condo. Don’t skip that part. The stars over the water are quite a sight. The walk outs are the best rooms and felt private. The chickens would get on the patio. Most people seemed to like them ok. I don’t. We heard the roosters from the parking lot but not from our room. We did bring a sound machine so that probably helped. Ask the host about grocery delivery. We had groceries and drinks delivered and in the fridge ready to go when we got there. Totally worth it. The ac worked well and we were thrilled the condos had reliable generators! The island is amazing. Can’t wait to come back.

Everything was absolutely wonderful and exactly what we expected from the listing. The hosts were extremely helpful and accommodating throughout and even before our stay. We will be booking with them in the future for sure.

As per my communication thru VRBO (AFTER we got home) that the host "misrepresented" the listing, he agreed to amend it. He used the word "Washer" but the unit had none; he used the word "Luxury" which is ludicrous. My complaints included, but were not limited to: several of our electronic devices being ruined and unusable due to electrical sparks flying when we plugged them in and shorting them out! Thus, we were unable to use our phones when we needed them most--on departure day, which was a communication nightmare: airline check-ins, 2 airport arrivals, parking, shuttles, taxis, etc. The electrical in the unit is simply unsafe.Four light bulbs were out when we checked in. We uncovered a long black hair on the bedsheet. Some cabinet doors were hanging, unhinged. A few kitchen linens were filthy. The beach view was obstructed. Parts of the unit were shoddy and filthy.I understand the host had an emergency to attend during our stay, but these issues didn't happen overnight. Despite some 10 reviews, this unit has issues and is greatly overpriced. We did extend our stay 2 days, but it had nothing to do with the unit. Its saving grace was the pretty beach.The host wrote: "You are right. I could have done better. I travelled to California to be with my sister...My family emergency is not an excuse and I apologize for not meeting your expectations and losing your patronage. I will try harder for future guests."
