We’ve stayed at AquVista a few times previously but never in this unit or with this company. We love the location which is why we went with this place. We arrived 30 minutes before check in and they did give us a one time code to enter early. Upon entering we were met with an absolutely putrid stench. It smelled like bad seafood and urine. Like bad. The lady on the phone with me for the code wanted to know what it smelled like and let me know there had been no complaints or record of the foul odor and offered to send a machine that could “remove all the oxygen in the condo and purify the air to help remove the odor.” In order to run said machine we would need to be out of the room for a minimum of 3 hours and after driving for 9 hours we weren’t interested in being out that long the day of arrival. So we aired it out best we could with the 90degree breeze the first night and made plans to use the machine on day two. Even the maintenance man agreed it smelled bad when he dropped off the air purifier. It did help some with the smell since we ran it over 5 hours. Overall the staff seemed like they were somewhat trying to help and the maintenance guy was very nice but the condo needs some serious attention and a DEEP, DEEP cleaning. All the furniture feels nasty, the internet and TV were trash, and so many little broken things like the handle on the back door broke off, the cabinet door on the entertainment center fell off, and the faux drawer in front of the kitchen sink just fell off while I was cleaning up. We can deal with outdated, especially at that location with a great view, but stinky, crusty, and falling apart is a bit much. There’s definitely better units at this location. I wouldn’t book this one again.
