Tranquil Waters at Ponce Landing 42

We had a great vacation due to this rental! It was as expected, clean, comfortable and just an overall great place to stay. We will be back!

The property was clean and easy to get into. The pools are great and the beach access is easy to get to. The kids had a great time at mini golf next door and many places are in walking distance.

Condo itself was as advertised and very clean. The property was well maintained. The garage was an added bonus. The only downside to our stay was that it was listed as a "Poolside Retreat" and neither of the pools was open while we were there. However, the property manager was very accommodating and offered us a full refund if we wished to leave or a partial refund if we decided to stay.

We were only here for a few days, so we made the best of it. If it were any longer, I may have addressed some issues. Not the best option if you have little ones. We have kids & obviously know they're going to get dirty but we had to do a quick clean of our own before we were comfortable letting them unpack. The unit could definitely use a good scrub down. We first noticed the floors weren't cleaned or even broom swept thoroughly. The vents throughout have an inch of dust on them. The small throw/area rugs in the kitchen & bathrooms haven't been washed in a while. The comforters clearly weren't washed as there was visible sand and hair left. We made do, but I can see how some people would be disappointed, considering you're paying a cleaning fee. This unit is directly next door to the maintenance/managers unit, whom are heavy smokers. We made sure not to leave slider open being there is a sign in garage that says you'll be charged if cigarette smoke can be smelled. Garage has tile and is very slippery when wet. We had a few falls from either rinsing the beach things off or from the rain. This unit is also at the entrance off the main road- there is no ongoing sidewalk to the beach, so you'll have to walk all the way around complex to access the boardwalk with your things (about 1/4 of a mile), should you not drive on beach. Boardwalk is steps only- no ramps for coolers or wagons. Pools are small and patio furniture was a little dated & weathered but, there's a pool & you can just throw your towel over the chair to avoid the broken pieces of chairs. Also, no patio tables at either pool. Many people live in this complex full-time & can spot a renter quickly. We had one lady pay us two visits asking about our stay- not in a welcoming way, but almost bothered we were there. To each their own, but it was somewhat awkward. Some units were undergoing construction, which was loud at times & we had to be mindful of ladders & extension cords when walking to the pools with kids.
