The property is in a beautiful location, so close to the beach and community pool. We were able to walk out our balcony and down to the path leading to the beach and be set up within a couple minutes. Just lovely! The unit could use a little bit of maintenance and the primary bathroom could use an upgrade. Not the end of the world, but if the condo appearance is more important than the awesome location then maybe this property isn’t for you.

Dated worn furnishings, on arrival, lamp in bedroom was broken as was a shower door. There were problems with plumbing, freezer, dishwasher, and not well cleaned. Dripping vents. View from patio was great. Beach and beach access were great. Beautiful area and location in Palmetto Dunes. Property management company was very responsive and quickly responded to address fixing broken things and providing additional needed parking pass. Nice provision of beach chairs and shovels, buckets, wave boards, etc.

Great Location, not the cleanest unit

There was a smell of urine in the unit as well as not much space to store items for the week in the kitchen. The spare closet was also filled messily with beach items and no space for clothes. The unit was in a great location the beach and pool. It was great to be able to walkout too. Just wish the linens and things felt cleaner.

Wonderful spot in Palmetto Dunes!

Love the location! Proximity to beach/pool and tennis/pickleball was idea. The unit was very comfortable. The only recommendation I would make is that they get black out curtains for the smaller bedroom. The windows open up to the entrance hallway and there are very bright lights out there, probably for security reasons. Would be a quick fix and would make sleeping in that room much better. Otherwise, the place is perfect.

Great location, good unit, poor communication

Stay overall was good — unit was decently furnished, location was great with only a short walk off the patio to the beach. Even had a couple beach chairs and towels for us which was great. Also, Palmetto Dunes is just a fantastic community to stay in. Only a couple complaints - 1) the owners/property mgmt company never responded to either of my messages. While I read their policy on not guaranteeing early check ins, they never acknowledged my message at all. So we killed 4 hours with 2 kids waiting to hear back, but never did….and still haven’t. We entered a very clean unit, but one that obviously no one had been in for awhile, which was disappointing for obvious reasons. Some or ANY communication would have been great. 2) the master bed and linens might be one of the most uncomfortable I’ve ever slept in. The bed was hard as a rock, the pillows thin as cardboard, and the linens were like sleeping on carpet. The kids slept great in the other bedroom, but my wife and I had a tough time in the master. It does not get a lot of airflow from the AC unit, and there is no fan in there either. Overall, just needs a few basic updates to the master and some responsiveness from owners, then I’d consider staying there again given the convenience to the beach and pool.

The condo location is perfect, close to pool and ocean view on the first floor. The condo had everything we needed, and was clean. Our gate passes had not been called in, so when we arrived I had to call and get that taken care of, but other than that, our stay was perfect.
