Itβs our favorite
We had an amazing time! The condo was fully equipped with everything we needed! The bed wasnt too comfortable, but beyond that we had a great time! We even found a little hermit crab in the condo. Looks like the family before us must've bought it and it got out. Well it re-emerged and now we have a new pet named Pete.
The Islander resort was very clean, quiet and had a lot of great accommodations; specifically the linen exchanges, along with 2 beach chairs and an umbrella set up for you daily at the beach. The condo was clean and it's a very short walk to the beach. The kitchen is a little dated but it had everything we needed to cook with for the week. The only complaint we had is that both toilets would continuously run. We had to constantly fix the handle/stopper to make them stop running. They both should be fixed before the unit is rented again. Overall, we would recommend this condo and the Islander resort.

We love the islander and have always stayed in beautiful condos, we love the 7th floor on the east side. This condo however has a rug that is so dirty, the white parts/patterns are grey. You can tell itβs from filth because the parts under the couch are still white, also the cushions on the dining room chairs are filthy. For that much money for a weeks vacation, the owners should be able to afford a new rug & dining chairs.

Reviewer Comments:
We loved the view we had & felt like the beach attendant - Allen was extremely warm & concerned about our visit. The handyman was very kind & engaging. We also appreciated the young women in laundry room, she was kind, upbeat & helpful. We would encourage you to move her to the front desk. The front desk responded to what they were asked but did not seem warm or glad we were there. We did have several issues with the unit. Both toilets needed the stopper replaced, when flushed they kept running - it seemed to take a few days to get those replaced. We had an issue with large brown bugs. My wife fell when trying to catch/kill bugs and ended up in the ER. It took a few days but the bug person came in & sprayed, we killed both of the large bugs we saw. Our stay was nearly 3 weeks we were near the east garbage drop, it was to be repaired, never worked during our stay, so we had to walk from the far end of the East to the far end of the west to dispose of garbage. This was our first trip back to the Islander since the mid 90βs, we stayed there about 2 weeks a year from mid 80βs to mid 90βs. We were excited about our stay since we had so many memories. It seems like the building had been used hard and needed some general updating to keep it fresh & appealing.

FANTASTIC View of the water, Location and Amenitites! Check-in / Check-out was very easy. They don't miss a beat. The beach is very close and they have chairs/umberella ready for you to use. Front desk staff (Alex/Betsy) were so very helpful. Great property, can't wait to go back.
The condo is 4 stars for cleanliness (could have been cleaner) the propery is 5 stars, they were constantly cleaning public areas.

The access to the beach was nice. The fact that twoChairs were included was also nice, but you had to wake up early to ensure you got them especially ones that werenβt four rows back. The kitchen was outdated. The master bathroom had a sliding door to close to get in the shower, that was very difficult to move as well as the pantry closet being difficult to open. The beach view was nice and front desk staff was friendly.

this property could use some real updates, the tile used as baseboard was falling off, there were 3 roaches in the bedroom by the kitchen, needed more lights everywhere, some lighter paint would have helped, it was just too dark, in general needed some TLC.

The resort grounds are nice and it has some great amenities. Many of the rooms are nice - however my room (703) needs some TLC. Wallpaper is peeling off the walls in the bathrooms, closet door was off the track, furniture and kitchen are dated and the kitchen pans are poor quality. I will stay here again - but next time a different room.

We have stayed in this unit before and have had a good experience. On this trip we noticed the furniture is showing wear and couch cushions do not sit well. We also discovered 4 dead long roach like bugs two under under our bed. The second bath is showing wear with the sliding shower door rusted. The one plus was the tv with HBO.

Reviewer Comments:
We got married at the jetty east next door and decided to move over to the Islander for an ocean view. Everything was very nice. The two things I can say that could use improvement are1: the couches. They are very very stained and uncomfortable to sit on. We didnβt use them often, but thatβs part of the reason why.2: the master bed. It is EXTREMELY hard and uncomfortable. I can sleep anywhere, but this bed had us tossing and turning all night. All in all, it was a gray stay!
