The only thing that needs attention is maintenance. Glass balcony door was closed to impossible to open (little WD40), burnt out bulbs with no replacements provided, it would of been awesome if the balcony door had a screen, handle on microwave broken, only 2 spoons. This can all be easily taken care of. The view and cleanliness was well worth the trip. ##### Kathleen H.

The fireworks mid-stay was a nice surprise. The bedroom was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked, except short supply of teaspoons. Now, the negatives --The sofa bed in the condo was terrible, very uncomfortable to sit on when closed, and forget sleeping on it when open as the mattress was all springs/coils. When closed the sofa cushions separated so you were sitting on the metal bar, they were flat too, and the sofa itself was really low to the ground. There is a fire hazard with the dryer - the vent was jammed with lint, so thick it was as if no one ever cleaned it, perhaps they didn't know how as it isn't in the usual spot, but on the back inside wall of the dryer. The carpeting was filthy. The shower was very narrow, a bigger person will have difficulty. Removing the glass doors would help with that. Porch furniture was just 3 dirty plastic chairs that I expected to break but fortunately did not. Giving this condo a 4, as the negatives aren't that important overall. ##### Kimberly R. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2022 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Justin C. 21 Dec 2022 #### Room 813 Review The room was very nice and clean except the pullout bed was so uncomfortable, you could feel the springs all over the mattress, and the shower did not drain quickly which is a problem when you have multiple people trying to get ready. Also, parking was a nightmare and the women in the office were not nice when I was asking for a solution since someone was parked in my spot. ##### Justin C. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diane H. 30 Jul 2022 #### Blackcat 641 Clean and wonderful views along with easy access to the beach! ##### Diane H. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Kim B. 27 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Summer getaway Great visit overall, despite some hiccups noted below. We enjoyed the view and being close to everything we needed. It was great to have assigned parking. Loved the building amenities at the Golden Sands; great evening entertainment. The building security, and reception desk staff were very friendly, engaging and helpful. The building common areas were kept very clean. Kudos the the cleaning staff. Communications with Vasca team was very responsive via text. Pre-checkin info texts & welcome pack on arrival was good CONS: Things to note, the couch is not comfortable (and squeeks loudly when you sit on it), the hvac unit is loud; always had to double the volume on the TV when it kicked on, but that said, the living room area stayed very cool even with the thermostat at 75-degrees. The a/c didn't circulate well in the bedroom if the bedroom door was closed. We aren't fans of foam mattresses, so we didn't sleep well. It didn't help that the bed was missing the mattress cover and the sheets are VERY thin and kept popping off the mattress. Compounded by the mattress having large lint balls that could be felt through the thin sheets; at first I thought it was sand under the sheets until I investigated. I didn't realize I had a v-mail from Vasca requesting permission to enter the unit while we were out until the end of the trip. If I had, then likely we would have gotten the mattress cover... so my bad. Check-in and out can be nightmare in this building due to 4 slow elevators. One evening we opted to walk up the 8 flights versus waiting for an elevator. Some folks indicating they had been waiting in line 30+ mins to get an elevator due to volume of luggage, beach stuff and family members. Fortunately we checked in late and prepacked the car the nigh before departing to avoid the fiasco. Another item which we didn't appreciate is the building maintenance staff entering the unit without permission during our stay. Twice a worker attempted to enter the room when we didn't answer the door promptly. Once to fix the screen door on the patio, the 2nd time to change the filter. The 2nd attempt the worker indicated he would return. When returning from lunch we saw this same worker in the hall and invited him to come change the filter and he stated "he already did" ?!!? The filter vent is in the hallway and apparently he also went into the bedroom closet and opened the window blinds in the unit. We weren't happy about that at all. ##### Kim B.
