Gabriel's Paradise: Oceanfront | Deck | Pool

The overall stay was good. We enjoyed the view, the beach and the pool. There are a couple of opportunities for improvement:1. We could have used more dishwasher detergent packets-two more at least.2. One roll of paper towels is not enough for a week os stay.3. The patio door is extremely difficult to open once locked. 3. The internet was not available, even after restarting the router.

Condo has a smell and the furniture is old and dated. Bed was comfortable, refrigerator door handle was broken off. Mostly we just slept there after our family time in the Sun and at the beach Location was good. We had this reunion to gather for a memorial for our granddaughter who passed away and she wanted her ashes spread at Ocean Isle

Nice property amenities, condo was comfortable but floors were very dirty and carpet is stained. Master bed was soft and comfortable, 2nd bedroom bed was very hard. Linens were good shape but most of the furniture was worn, and unit needs a deep clean.

The unit overall is as described, however, the description leaves out a few things. We had to change the hvac filter that was filthy, the smell and air quality improved immediately. There was some sort of nasty bug trap device on the counter top that has a fan that's extremely dusty/dirty. We had to clean the top of the fridge before using as temp storage for misc items. We cleaned the underside of the microwave including the filter before cooking on the stove top as it was disgusting. The closet housing the washer/dryer unit is an entire fire code violation in of itself, the clutter in the closets are unreal. In the closest housing the washer/dryer, there's all manner of items lying on the dryer duct along with paint and other items stored. We didn't attempt to use the unit as we were not sure what may happen. The ceiling fans are so dusty we made sure not to switch them on. The rack in the main bath is all rusted and nasty as well as the shower curtain rod, just ridiculous. So much rust in fact, the rust came off, on to the towels. The blinds are to dated, especially the blinds for the sliding door, they to are rusty and hardly work. The screen door leading to the main entry door is too something to behold, a relic. On our first morning, we prepared to make breakfast and discovered food from the previous guests still clinging to the pots and pans, so we hand washed everything we thought we may use and separated from the other dirty dishes for our use. I'm out of characters.
