I also had an issue with the property manager, check out was at 10 a.m it started pouring rain we were on a flood watch the parking area was flooded and we were late checking out.. she called texted saying they had another guest and needed us out of the property.. we payed a substantial amount to rent the place i would of expected grace and not an explanation as to how late we were getting out of the property considering we were on the second floor and it was slippery due to the rain to go Down to the flooded parking area, had to strip the beds of the linens and take the trash out! Would I rent again from this property manager? Absolutely not! We are customers not a way to pay a bill and even if we are a way to pay your bill customer service is very important.. ##### Yamel Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen 20 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Liked the patio furniture for enjoying the relaxing sounds of the beach.
