Our condo was clean and comfortable but what really made the stay worthwhile was the lazy river and pools. The kids couldnât get enough of it and we enjoyed it too!
The condo itself was clean and spacious. I went with 3 gfs and we had plenty of room and the pool and lazy river was a special treat. Lazy river is huge and we floated for hrs.
Great property and the owner was very helpful and responsive. We would stay there again. The kitchen could use some wine glasses and a few more dishes. I would also add extra pillows for sleeping in the pullout beds.
My stay was amazing and peaceful. The place was immaculate and exactly like how the pictures showed. It was literally home away from home, with everything you needed. My son enjoyed the pools, while I enjoyed the Lazy River and it was cool to see family up on the balcony waving down. This place was wonderful and I can not wait to go back for a longer stay.
We stay at Phoenix on the Bay at least twice a year but this was our first time staying in this condo. Itâs cute and has everything you need to cook in your condo and enjoy the amenities of Phoenix.
This was our family's fourth trip to PotB, and we have immensely enjoyed all of them. Unit was clean, had everything we needed, but the double bunk we were counting on for our kids' comfort was badly in need of replacing. Fold out couches worked in its place, but wasnt our prefered option.
It was a beautiful resort the water access was amazing the kids loved the pool and hot tub. The only down fall was the floors in our place were disgusting our feet were black, we had to wipe off before getting in bed or putting on our shoes. Other than that it was good.
Nice amenities, nice condo, great communication with agent. Nice location. Quiet area on the bay. Really enjoyed our stay. Few suggestions, have them clean the floors better, the handles in the master bathroom jacuzzi tub leak when turned on, washing machine makes crazy noises, and the ice maker barely makes ice. But really nice condo. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Maybe upgrade the mattress.
Condo was not super clean, had to wash some bedding because it was dirty. Might be nice if you are bringing a boat since there is a marina, but there is no beach access. Otherwise perfectly serviceable. The pool and lazy river was very nice.
Loved the lazy river and water slide. Place needs/needed to be designed with a bigger/deeper pool and have a bar and quick food on site. Actual rental was odd with no common bathroom, only two connected to rooms so coach sleepers have to disturb. In every other way it was great fun and convenient no troubles.
We brought our grandchildren and their friends on a summer getaway. Condo was perfect size. Older kids shared the smaller bedroom and younger ones slept in living room. Lazy river, water slide, and pool were a hit for all ages. There were plenty of chairs available by the pool and never a shortage of tubes. We rented a boat close by and were able to utilize dock at our resort to grab a few things we forgot to pack for our day excursion. Location of condo was close to grocery store, multiple restaurants, and beach was a short drive.
I wish I had payed more attention to all the extra fees when booking.
By the time they added all the fees the total had doubled.
The bed in the master bedroom was very uncomfortable.
Nice everything, except master bed was AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL!
I havenât seen such a bad mattress in years. Itâs really uncomfortable. The sides are so worn out you just slide off! The middle has a giant hump. No blow drier. Other than that we loved everything. We actually slept on the pull out sofa and found it more comfortable than the master bed! The bunk beds were fine. (A little wobbly and no top rail, but fine). I would stay again if the master mattress was replaced, otherwise hard no.
Location of the condo was good. Very easy to get too. The description said it sleeps 9 and I'm not sure how that would have been possible. We had 6 and it was a tight fit. There were a few things broken when we arrived but I informed the owner immediately. One of the broken items was the pull out sofa sleeper which resulted in us having to get an air mattress. Even with the sofa sleeper not being broken, I'm not sure where 9 people would have slept. The second bathroom is only accessible through the bedroom so the guests staying in the living room have to go through the bedroom to get there. It was a little bit of an inconvenience since my son and daughter both brought a friend. We had to make sure the girls were dressed if the boys needed to get into the bathroom. We made it work for 3 nights so no big deal. The condo was decorated nicely and had a great view of the bay as well as the pool and lazy river. The kitchen was decently stocked but if you plan to cook a lot, you may want to bring some extra cookware. Overall, our crew of 6 enjoyed our stay other than having to make last minute sleeping arrangements.
Weâve stayed at POB I for many years now. We love the property and typically stay at different condos every year. This condo was beautiful, just as pictured. Itâs a good location to the elevator, making access to the outdoor amenities very easy. Bring your own sponge to wash dishes. Surprisingly, there wasnât one. My only disappointment is that I emailed the owner through VRBO and her email on the day of check-in and that email was never acknowledged. Thankfully, it was nothing urgent. A response would have been appreciated. Our stay was wonderful. Instructions/expectations from the owner were clear. Oh!!âŠI do not like that I was forced to purchase damage insurance for $119 OR pay $5k up front for possible refund afterwards. I understand, but I still didnât like it.
We had an amazing week staying here for our fall break vacation. We brought our boat and enjoyed the beautiful water and beaches of the area. The house is very well equipped with everything we needed.
