Grand Venetian 1 bedroom, large patio

Property was as described, lots of extras (food, etc.) in place, and Owner always responsive to needs. Except for the noise that passes for music across the way - mostly on weekends and stopping around 9:00 PM - couldn't be better.

Thank you for sharing your lovely condo with us. We love the Grand Venetian and your suite is lovely. The new couch was very comfortable and the new door lock worked great. We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation. Thank you

Great stay

This unit of Darwin's is without a doubt the best equipped condo we have experienced in PVR. The King sized bed is roomy & very comfortable , I have a bad back & really appreciated this unit. The kitchen was without a doubt top of the line. Surplus of cook wear & tupperware , previous occupants , including ourselves have left a variety of spices for future visitors . Large wall mounted TV & numerous English stations. Netflix available if you have membership. Shopping available in walking distance ( three blocks on foot or taxi to Costco). Large shopping mall right next door to Grand Venetian , restaurants, clothing , etc. On site restaurant at second tower, good food responsible prices & poolside service. Pools are well kept but if you want a lounge chair poolside get down early. Security exit to public beach , don't forget your id bracelet at all times or you will requested to return to your room to obtain and wear. Several pools family friendly, several hot tubs as well . Now for the " But " ! Tower 3 adjoins the public beach entrance & parking lot. Also, there is a bar on left side of river adjoining Tower 3 . The food is reportedly good , never tried & features nightly music. Usually close down by 10 pm. The Bad news for " All " in the vicinity is a new bar has been built on the far side of the river & has become a source of irritation for everyone in the immediate area. Only operate Three days a week with a steady high level of Rap , some sound tracks not " Family Appropriate". Due to noise level & content , you usually closed your balcony doors . This new issue of two weeks is being addressed by condo owners with management of bar. Hopefully to be resolved in near Future. Suggestion , take along a smoke detector, buildings have no sprinklers or detectors or alarms.We were there in Dec 2018 & fire are 18th floor occured & many unaware till later in day. As these buildings are solid concrete there is little possibility of fire spreading but smoke could be a problem. Sunset View of Ocean & Arrival & Departure of Cruise ships are awesome. Watch for & recommend Pirate Ship dinner. Darwin's unit is comfortable and barring the noise situation , hopefully soon resolved , we recommend it .
