Would stay again if issues resolved
Lovely condo located next to a busy road, and on the airport flight path. Noise not all that noticeable when inside, but can be quite distracting when sat on the patio. Wouldn’t stop me going again, but if traffic noise bothers you this place may not be your best choice. The condo was clean, except for the floors, which needed a good scrub. They’d been given a superficial mop with a Swiffer, but those things don’t touch ground in dirt. I cleaned some of the worst spots myself on my hands and knees using a floor rag. But the entire floor needs attention. Despite that we enjoyed our 3 week stay here, because it’s a beautifully decorated condo in a very pretty complex. The pool area is lovely, and would have been even better if the pool and hot tub were heated. But, unfortunately for us, the HOA had decided to turn it off for 3 months to save money, and the condo owner forgot to tell us. He did put the info on his VRBO site but, as we’d booked a year ago we didn’t think to recheck the info on the site before making our final payment, so were unaware. Lesson learned; always recheck the site info before finalizing the deal! He apologized profusely, but I think he should have sent me a message at the same time as he changed his ad. Because I really would have preferred a place with a usable pool and hot tub. Nevertheless, provided the pool and hot tub are heated, and provided the floors are cleaned properly, I would stay here again.

Disliked: Location
We found the condo “tired”. Poor lighting and in need of updating.
While thoughtful, there were far too many utensils, cleaning supplies, there was no kettle to use the French Press and no tablespoon measure!

About the host

Host profile image
I'm a Senior Event Manager for one of the largest Hotel chains in the World. I love to travel, workout, hike and enjoy being with my friends and family.
Most of the artwork in the condominium -- photographs and paintings -- were the previous owners creations.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! Short blocks from the Riviera Hotel, minutes from uptown and downtown dining/shopping, and adjacent to the classic mid-century modern architecture of Alexander Homes' Racquet Club Estates!

What makes this property unique

Of the many properties that I considered for purchase in 2016, this was the one that I would personally want to rent for vacation. It offers the perfect combination of location, setting and style.
