Summary: The grounds were kept up nicely and other buildings were in beautiful condition. However, the building in which we stayed was old and not well maintained. The unit we used was adequate but was not what I consider a vacation experience, especially with its cost.

Summary: The stay was great until I was hit with a smoking fee. The rules were read and it absolutely said no smoking in unit. There was no smoking in the unit. The person staying is an extremely heavy smoker so his clothes most definitely smelled like smoke. I had very little communication with the rental company and when they did respond they told me that there was no way the person did not smoke especially since there were cigarette butts in the trash can. I was absolutely ok with getting an extra cleaning fee but to be hit with a smoking fee was absurd. If they do not want anyone smelling like smoke or someone that is a heavy smoker renting that definitely needs to be put in the rental description. I will be telling people about this company and the lack of communication after emailing them several times.It really is a shame honestly especially after the person that it was rented for lost everything in the hurricane and now out the money for a smoking fee because he was accused of smoking in the unit.

Summary: Community and restaurants are very cute here. The room and building was nice but not as updated as I had hoped and as it seems in the pics. A bit rundown is all. Unlike others who reviewed, I did not see any bugs at all, hallways were clean, room was clean and all items were available as noted on the listing. Enjoyed the stay especially because it was only for a few days.
