Being on the first floor, we were able to walk immediately out to our golf cart. Everyone just leaves their beach stuff in their golf carts or on their patios. It’s a great community with so many fun family amenities. We had an amazing time and would stay in the same condo again. ##### Nikki P.

There are many chips, paint scratches, stains on couches and minor fixes that I will bring to the offices attention. Other than that it is very comfortable with everything you need. ##### Meghan W.

Reviewer Comments: This condo was very nice and clean. It was conveniently located on the circle but was still very quiet. We were here with our daughter, son-in-law, and two grandchildren. The space is cozy, but comfortable. Renting a golf cart was helpful for getting to the pools and the beach, and the kids loved it. We ate at both restaurants and the food was excellent! Every employee we encountered was super helpful and courteous. From the umbrella/chair rental employees to the woman serving ice cream at the food cart, all seemed interested in providing an enjoyable experience. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be coming back. ##### Renee C.

Reviewer Comments: Everything was wonderful! The location and easy access to the beach were great! Because of it being off-season, it wasn’t crowded at all. With that being said, the only negative was that the few places they have to eat were closed a couple days or closed early which was inconvenient. Overall, we would definitely go back! ##### LYNDA T.

Reviewer Comments: This is our 4th year visiting and this time we chose the Blue Marlin! We loved the decor and the floor plan. The kitchen is equipped with high end appliances and beautiful china from Pottery Barn and William Sonoma. My only suggestion is to install curtains on the main bedroom, at night there is a lot of lights coming from the street, so it would be nicer to make the room darker. The water pressure at Cinnamon Shore is a real issue! We have stayed in several condos and the problem is the same! I suggest to come up with a plan and fix it.We had a wonderful and relaxing time! Thank you so much for accepting our puppies! See you next year! ##### Todd C.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second summer at CS, we love it and highly recommend it. Love the town center, restaurants, pools, beach, driving around in golf carts, and the various events offered, it really is a special place! We had lunch delivered to the beach from the restaurant at Kiera's Pool and that is such an added bonus. We also did a private sand castle lesson which was so fun. It is just such an easy and low key vacation!While we loved the location and easy access of Blue Marlin we were disappointed that the owner was in the middle of completely re-doing it so it looked drastically different from the beachy, colorful condo we thought we had booked (and which was still depicted on the webpage). My kids cried when they saw the bunk room was no longer bright and colorful but instead had black pillows and blankets on the beds. We booked it because we loved how it looked so perhaps giving us a heads up about the major changes would have been the right thing to do, or even completing the work before the summer season so the pictures could be updated! Also, when we arrived the washing machine was broken, however CS's staff quickly replaced it the next day.Overall we were very happy and we hope the development continues to grow and add restaurants and things like putt-putt! ##### Ashley B.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Blue Marlin is a must! This condo was so incredibly comfortable for my husband and I, our daughter and her three children one being an infant. The the other two 5 and 4 had endless things to keep them and us busy. Renting the golf cart is a must. The ability to load up from the condo to the beach and drive on the beach was such a plus. We were there for 5 days and did not leave the property the first four days. There are three pools, one with a restaurant and one other with a great playground and dog park. The restaurants on the property are all so good. The movie nights were a big hit with the littles in the evening. We had heard of Cinnamon shores from a friend and really had no idea what to expect. We will be back very soon. My husband golfed up the road from the resort so there was just something for everyone. The beach water was warm and shallow so we were comfortable with the kids in the water without being too hands on. The Staff at the resort are remarkable and friendly and made this stay fantastic. ##### Lynda d.

We will be back very soon. My husband golfed up the road from the resort so there was just something for everyone. The beach water was warm and shallow so we were comfortable with the kids in the water without being too hands on. The Staff at the resort are remarkable and friendly and made this stay fantastic. ##### Lynda d.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Blue Marlin is a must! This condo was so incredibly comfortable for my husband and I, our daughter and her three children one being an infant. The the other two 5 and 4 had endless things to keep them and us busy. Renting the golf cart is a must. The ability to load up from the condo to the beach and drive on the beach was such a plus.

The vacation rental was clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Well my first impression upon entering the condo, front door very dirty & lock needs to be adjusted very difficult to lock. I would suggest that the outside entrance needs to be swept & front door cleaned, very grubby. The condo did not smell clean, stuffy & a food smell. Our trash can was broken & it took someone until the next day to temporary repair it. Overall condo was comfortable too many pillows everywhere, when you have young kids they cannot keep them in place. I would choose a different condo next time. Thank you ##### Anne K.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo is the perfect location on the property! The bedroom set up is great and the huge kitchen perfect for hanging out and cooking! A suggestion for the owner is to take out the excess in the kitchen and bedrooms. Every single drawer, cabinet, and shelf in the kitchen had something in/on them! Too many glasses, towels, decorations, etc taking up space. We had to consolidate drawers just to have a place to put our food and supplies. The 2nd bedroom also had 15-20 decorative pillows which we had to stack on the floor and maneuver around. The antique dressers are cute but hard to open and one was full of quilts which again we had to move elsewhere so we could put our clothes in there. The master bedroom mattress sank in the middle as well. Overall the good outweighed the bad, and we would stay in this condo again!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently stayed at the Blue Marlin for the second time! The unit is very clean and had everything we needed. We also like the ease of the location. First floor makes easy access to and from the car or golf cart. Perfect size for just our family. TV's are confusing to work but other than that we've enjoyed this property. We could also fit all 4 of our kids easily in the second bedroom which it makes it a win for us without breaking the bank, and a great place to get away but still be isolated. ##### Kim J.

Reviewer Comments: The Blue Marlin is the cutest little beach condo! We had a lovely stay and the condo was well-appointed with everything we needed. I loved the location- we were close to a couple restaurants and could enjoy live music from our porch in the evenings while our toddler snoozed inside. Our vacation got a 10/10 rating from the whole family, and we can't wait to come back. ##### Lauren C.
