Stay anywhere else...literally. I had low expectations for this place, especially since I booked a non-updated room. I expected old coming into the property.
Cons:
To start, I arrived to check in at 4pm on a Friday. As stated in the check in instructions to arrive between 3-6pm. There was no one on the premises AT ALL. I had to call the emergency number where a lady told me my room and that the keys were under the mat. Ok...
Upon inspection/ first walking into the room, it was dirty. The floors were dirty, hair everywhere. The toilet had urine around the rim and on the floor around the seat. The couch was stained (with removable cushion covers that couldve easily been washed). We were left in a linen closet: 3 bath towels, 2 small washcloths. There was no linen or towel or rug for anywhere on the property, nor hand towels to use after washing your hands.
A closet contained a swiffer (with no pads) and a broom (without a dustpan). This is what I used to clean the floors upon arrival with paper towels.
There is internet but it does not work. I contacted staff about this through the "emergency line" mainly due to us not having cell signal in the hotel. This was never addressed.
Coffee maker in kitchen was disgusting.
Microwave worked when it felt like.
The pullout sofabed was left bare and wdid not get bedding for it until the 2nd day of our stay after again having to try multiple times to reach the emergency line.
Pros:
Kitchen is equipped with cookware/plates.
Loca
Like it was close to beach. Didnât like furniture was very old kitchen Atlantic miles of delays on that app you were hitting the wood through the cushion. The bed mattress, your butt sunk before the rest of you and I donât weigh that much. I had to sleep upside down in the bed with a pillow Between my legs very uncomfortable. Had a very moldy smell. Wanted to play shuffleboard, but there was no shuffleboard equipment.. refrigerator it was dirty on the bottom and frozen
Amazing friendly and private short walk to the beach the property was set up just right for everything needed to have a blast at the beach or pool. That part of Marco beach is great more private and more wildlife! We saw on both days sightings of dolphins very close, snorkeling the rocks saw at least 20-30 snappers , sand dollars, shells, and even a mother manatee with her baby !!! The kids will will never forget! Thank God for this cozy vacation suites and opportunity to see His beautiful nature
We liked that the beach was just a walk away across the street with easy access. We didn't like that our accommodations were very dated. The couch was just yucky. We had to put towels over it to sit on it. Because of this we were not very comfortable. We were not expecting that.
The location was good with convenient beach access and close to the launch for shelling and fishing tours.
The telephone number for the suites, provided by Expedia, gave you a menu of three options to choose from. I called a couple of times in advance of the stay and no matter which option I chose I received a recording that the line was not in service. Although they did not answer a message sent through Expedia, they did text regarding a check in the day of our check in and I was able to reach them to arrange an after hours check in, because the close the on-site office at 6 pm.
The suite was not as clean as it should have been. There were no sheets or linens provided for the pull-out sofa and the office hours are limited, so no one is on-site to help. There is a number for after hours emergencies, but the issues we had were not emergencies. We tried to stop by the office once during office hours and the office was locked.
The floors had visible spots on them, the refrigerator looked like it had not been wiped out, and the soap tray in the shower had someoneâs left-over highly visible green soap scum on it.
Very comfortable, spacious, and well-equipped apartment.
Excellent location, right in front of the beach.
One suggestion would be to update the furniture to something more modern.
