4 days/3 nights Beach time!! Nice room. It is on the smaller side. Lucky we had good weather and didn't get stuck in the room. Everything was clean and worked. Could use an update. Not a lot of plug ins for electronics but we made it work. Thanks for the memories!
I was unhappy on so many fronts there is not enough room to fit in this review.
1. I booked my trip thru Expedia but the overall rental went thru two other companies. Removing my ability to control if i wanted to book my rental experience thru that company. To late no refund.
2. The condo was cold. The heating controls were out of my control and the A/C was turned on. The rental management company refused to compensate or accommodate my inconvenience to suit my needs and enforced their contract of no refunds. Then hung up on me.
3. After I completed my reservation, paid and lock in the rental was I presented the third party contract and given the rigid stipulations of renting the property unable to terminate the rental with no refund.
Its a Big SCAM. Ive been a longbterm Expedia client and they lost major credibility with me. Ill begin going directly to the source for now on.
The rental was cold which impacted my stay and everything I did during my stay. As well as I did not feel comfortable using anything (towels, soap, trash bags, ect) for concern they would find a way to upcharge me for some contractual violation. The pool looked murky. So i did not get in it. The unit's water was luke warm I could never get hot. I will NEVER rent ANYTHING thru Big Fish Rentals or the name they use Julie again. Terrible customer service all around. I didn't even mention the changes they took me thru to get verfied in multiple ways to finalize things took me days of back and forth time.
I got emails upon emails about how I could get charged extra but my keycard for the garage quit working halfway through the stay. The condo itself is fine and a good value. But the garage was sketchy and a pain.
I usually dont write reviews but if I can help someone with this review then its worth it. After reading through the list of all the ways the owners can charge you and then to come to a tiny room that should be listed as a hotel room and not a condo. At a hotel you would get at least a plastic up or utensil in the room. What you get is a great view and that's it. The refrigerator was broken and made noise the entire stay. There is no housekeeper so if you are there for more than a few days you will need to clean yourself and you have to empty your trash when you leave or you will be charged. Might as well stay at a hotel. I would not recommend. Don't let the low cost fool you after its all done with all the fees you will be paying more in the end.
Keycode access for rooms is much more convenient than keeping track of a keycard. The balcony provided an excellent and private view. The beds for us were adequately comfortable. Our host for this room provided excellent communication and a great rate!
Huge email to lay out all the ways you would be charged extra, even though it was a studio there was not even 1 glass plate or silverware- not even disposables!
The only âextrasâ were a pair of scissors, a hairdryer and a large box of trash bags, and an iron and board.
There was an amazing view of the ocean!
Had no problems renting the property. Room was clean. Close proximity to beach and blvd. Many of the wall outlets did not work. Refrigerator did not keep drinks cold - they were room temp despite being on coldest setting. Couldnât adjust the AC below 68 so room was never âcoldâ but it wasnât too stuffy. We were really only in the room to sleep and change so the temp didnât bug us too much.
