Pet friendly, walk to beach

This condo met our pet needs and was still convenient to the beach. Overall good accommodations, but kitchen was a little small/cramped. However, it served our needs and allowed us some much needed family time while we enjoyed the beach and the area.

Nice place with great beach access

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our unit was clean and sell stocked with a mish-mash of old dishes and cookware. The beds were comfortable and the TV/internet was fine. We had a poolside view and enjoyed some time on the balcony. We never spoke to or even saw any property managers but didn't need to. The automated system of communications was very good. We'll be back, but next time will shoot for a beach view.

Just okay room

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The room was okay, the dead fish smell from the kitchen was bad when we first walked in got used to it as day went on. The shower in the main room was TERRIBLE! You could hardly wash your hands from the trickle of water coming from that shower head and expect us to shower our whole body? Everyone used the other shower. Not happy. Coming to El Constante since the 90's first bad room. First & last time rending this room.

John and Sharon H.

Surprise vacation

Rating Details: The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Upon arriving, our surprise was that the unit had a terrible smell in it. We opened the patio door for some air, and it improved. Soon we figured out that the smell was coming the furniture in the LR and from the kitchen sink that was plugged so tight if you ran water in it both sides of the sink filled up. If you ran the disposal, black stuff flew all over. Two of the three bathroom sinks were very slow running. You could only open the microwave door about a third of the way because it hit the wall. Burners on the range were not hooked in, and we never tried to use it , the tub in the main bathroom upstairs was black and worn so badly we went and bought mats to put in the tubs because we wouldn’t stand in a tub that was that terrible looking at all the knobs on the bathroom, sinks and tubs were plastic see-through, and they were all filled with black mold . One of the three legs on the triangle coffee table in the living room was broken. We decided we would only be there four days and we would spend most of our time out of the unit and eat our meals out. And that is basically what we did. I was very disappointed And felt I had wasted the money I spent to come here. The beach there is beautiful. The pool in the community is beautiful. My husband and I had stayed in a different unit back in 2021 and it was very clean. I was so very disappointed , I don’t believe I will go back.
