I booked this condo for a quick weekend trip for my two small kids and I. Iâve had a few days to think about what I believe would be helpful for others considering this unit.
Please understand that while this unit is within the Aston Islander on the Beach, they do not manage it. They can help you get a parking pass, and thatâs about it. If you need to communicate with anyone about this unit, you will have to look through about 20 emails youâll get from Vacasa (the company that manages the property) to find the one phone number for the âon-island contactâ Val. I needed to speak with her and called her several times and NEVER HEARD BACK. So, if youâre cool with absolutely no communication from the only person you can call, then youâll be perfectly happy here.
The unit itself was clean and comfortable for my children and I. The beds and pillows were soft, they slept like rocks. Thatâs an A+ in my book. We were welcomed with a pineapple, mac nuts, chocolates, cookies and a card. It was a nice touch. The room is equipped with bowls, plates, some silverware and basic cutlery. Donât bother trying to cut into the pineapple with any knives or pineapple corer that is there. They are so dull that itâs really not worth the effort and fairly dangerous in my opinion.
The bathroom has a shower, but no tub. It has hand rails and a seat for those needing it. Also, the fan is so loud it scared my kids and there was no way to use the light without the fan⊠so thatâs a thing.
The location is great, and now that we know a few quirks, weâd probably stay here again⊠just wouldnât expect to hear back from Val even if I called 100 times.
