8 / 10Excellent·Mar 2026
Beautiful unobstructed beach views with an easy 2 minute walk from inside the condo to ON the beach! Kitchen fully stocked with everything we needed for a family of 5. Listing was accurate as far as amenities etc. The tile floor was sandy already when we checked in even though we had not been to the beach yet. Decent space for the price - nothing fancy/pretty basic finishes and furniture. . . Several broken things around the place (one handle broken off on the outside of the slider to the balcony, hole in the wall of one closet like a hook or shelf came down, lots of scuffing on walls, trim etc).

The beds were very hard. We all came home with body aches. The condo was decent until you took a close look. Then you could see the patch work and sloppy repairs that have been done. There is mold on the bathroom ceiling and walls. The dryer will not dry a load of clothes in one cycle. The drains in the bathroom tubs and sinks were very slow to drain.

We would stay again! We've stayed at Castaways (other units) for years & were excited to check this unit out! The staff who assisted us through the booking process were amazing! They quickly answered questions & kept us feeling confident in the process. We did find that the unit was not very clean when we arrived (grimy/gritty floor where sand hadn't been cleaned, showers were dirty, etc.). The property managers sent someone over the day after check in & they did a thorough cleaning. Also-the toaster didn't work & they had a brand new one delivered very quickly. The customer service & ability to reach out conveniently via text was GREAT! We can overlook the problems when they are addressed quickly & kindly-& these were!! A few notes: the chair in the living room is NOT comfortable. Once you sit in it, you feel like you're being pushed forward. It didn't allow you to lean back & relax. The couch in the images is not the one that is there now. The current one is bigger than a loveseat, smaller than a sofa. We couldn't really sit as a family in the living room with the furniture that is there now. The showers are very aged/yellowed & the ceiling above them is cracked & needs repair-but it was all functional. Also, the dryer required 2 cycles to dry even a small load. The sliding door track (door over slides) & threshold (not secure) needs addressed also. Even w/ those things, we would stay again!! Service/facility was great!!
6 / 10Average·Jul 2025
Other than some minor plumbing & HVAC issues, we enjoyed our stay, especially with the beach being just steps away. The views were great.The unit is located right above the pool, so if you had the doors open to the balcony, you heard all the noise coming from the pool area.
