The property is excellent, especially its location; it is close to the beach and some leisure spots. It would be a good idea to make a few changes to improve the house—for instance, the fans on the terrace and in the master bedroom,The front landscaping should also be better maintained to match the quality of the house. But overall, it’s a great place to stay; my family and I had a wonderful time.

The home was clean, tidy, and exactly what you’d expect from a professionally managed Vacasa property. Because Vacasa owns the home, there are no homeowner belongings, and the kitchen has only the basics with minimal cookware and no condiments, not even salt and pepper. Plenty of bath towels and pool towels were provided. The location is excellent, just one block from the gorgeous beach on Willow Street and close to the quieter north end of the island where you’ll find great restaurants, shops, and several golf cart rental spots. Publix on the island is also incredibly convenient. The house itself is comfortable, and the kitchen and one of the bathrooms have been refurbished. The pool area is large with lots of room to relax. The pool and lanai do show wear from prior storm damage and age, so the area looks a bit tired even though it’s clean. A future refurbishment would really elevate the outdoor space. Overall, it’s a comfortable, well‑located home that works great for a beach stay, and we would stay again in a heartbeat! Thank you Vacasa for a great stay!

Upon check in we realized the ice maker was not working so I called to report it and was told that someone would be in touch. The next day, I called again and they had no record of me calling the day before. The property management company assured me again someone would contact me about the ice maker and I never heard from anyone our entire stay. The property has some deferred maintenance. The pool is in desperate need of resurfacing. The coffee table is about to fall over, one of the toilet seats is broken, the master bed is about to collapse (we noticed when looking under the bed upon check out). It was also disappointing to discover that the 3rd bathroom was actually outside. The AC needs to be rebalanced as the room on the front of the house is extremely hot and even with the box fan provided it was uncomfortable to sleep. I would say the location was the best perk of this property. Not sure I would stay here again with 3 couples because of the bathroom situation.
