Extended Vacation

Was already at the beach for the week of 4th July and was supposed to head home on Friday the 7th, but I was having such a great time with my three kids which are not kids anymore 18-24, I decided to try to find a place for the weekend and this was it. We enjoyed staying at Island Shores and the host was awesome, everything was just great for us, and was in walking distance of most of the places we wanted to go also. It was great! Will be back again.

Beautiful location

When we arrived to the rental we noticed a few minor things. The fitted sheet on the bed in the master bedroom was torn on the corner, there were a few stains on the sheets & towels, & the toilet in one of the bathrooms wasn’t clean properly. Overall, it was an easy booking, didn’t have to contact the property manager, the security guard on the premises was very helpful upon arriving, the stay was great, beautiful view, & we enjoyed our time.

Over all a pleasant stay

Other than the master bedroom mattress being awful and uncomfortable, most of the electrical outlets not working, and the tv in the 2nd room not working our stay was pleasant. The condo served it purpose and was very clean. The check in and check out was super easy. But if you have a special occasion (per listed on the email) you may want to remind them about it the week before you come. The old man security guard gave me and my husband weird creepy stalker vibes especially around my two teenage daughters.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We booked this condo for a last minute weekend trip. The company was great at working with us to get the best deal. The property is older but very clean. Great and easy access to the beach. My only complaint was when we tried to cook breakfast during our stay there was a shortage of kitchen supplies. Otherwise, it met all our needs for our short trip!

Very good place

Was very happy with our stay. A little crowded getting into the room. Utensils were dirty and hair in the utensil organizer. Clothes left from previous stayers. Couple of outlets didn't have outlet covers. I have a 2 yr old. Other than that stay was fine for our days.
