Loved the studio at Paradise Villas.

Posted Feb. 4, 2024 on HomeAway
Our stay at the Paradise Villas studio rental was almost perfect. The bed was so comfy that it felt like sleeping on a cloud. But during the day, imagine trying to prop yourself up on the bed since there's no room for a couch, only to have your pillow fall through one-foot gaps in the fancy metal rail headboard instead of a wooden one. The Graceway IGA grocery store was very close & we saved tons of moolah by cooking delicious meals on the two-burner stove and tiny toaster oven. And there was even a full-size fridge, Keurig, and grill! We were provided with 2 beach chairs & a cooler. We wanted to grab a beach umbrella but were told they were all checked out, and we couldn't find one anywhere for purchase, so we had to stay off the beach for the first two days of our trip. We were eventually told by a local that we could get one at Doit Center, located on the way to the airport. It's a big yellow building on the left. Bathrobes: The paperwork said they were included, but they weren't. Oh well. Our broken safe left us feeling insecure. To make matters worse, a promised replacement never arrived, and the Ring doorbell only had the mount left. The unit was clean. Even the ceiling fan was spotless—which, let me tell you, is practically unheard of in my landlord adventures. Cooking was difficult in the kitchen's dim lighting conditions and make sure you bring garbage bags. Despite these quirks and mishaps, we are happy campers, giving it a solid 5 golden stars overall.

Vacation Rental

Posted Jan. 23, 2024 on HomeAway
The studio was very cozy and clean (except the pillows inside the pillow cases) and not too far to drive to places of interest. I would recommend to the owner to place some shelving in the bathroom. There is very little room around the sink to place items on. The patio was very enjoyable with the ocean view and there was plenty of parking for our rental vehicle as well. Overall, we liked the property.

Our stay

Posted Dec. 1, 2023 on HomeAway
We stayed in unit 4 which is the studio apartment. Very clean and a great deck. The instruction for this apartment was not accurate and I did not get an email with the lock box code but luckily the maintenance guy was there and had our key. Nice views 3 minute drive to Smith Reef, Bight Beach and Turtle Cove. Awesome time!

The property was under a total renovation. When we got there, they had no idea we were supposed to stay there we called property manager. He apologized and refunded our money back, and we had to find a new place to stay

No A/C during first 3 days of our stay!!! TCI had scorching hot weather throughout our stay. After several back & forth of emails w/ mgmt, they finally sent someone to repair the A/C that was clogged up & filter needed cleaning! Prepare to spend $$$ EVERYTHING'S expensive. I recommend renting a car, it's more affordable compare to cab fare ($30 1-way). W/ rental car, you can go anywhere, anytime & stay however long. People are friendly. Villa is quiet, safe, fully equipped kitchen, clean & tidy. Grocery store, beach & city centre nearby. Grace Bay beaches has the most amazing clear, turquoise colour water!

Different than I imagined

Posted May 15, 2023 on HomeAway
The inside space was clean. I did have to wash a few dishes before using them, though. The trip started off poorly because I had never driven on the left side of the road before and on the right side of the car. The problem was attempting to read the directions and do these two new things that were foreign to me. That was a no go. When I tried to use my maps app, it had not fully acclimated to where I was yet and I could not use it. When I did use it, it took me to Pratt Ianthe road. So, in essence, while the owners gave lots of information in the booklet. I'm not sure that they realized that these things can be and were true struggles for me. After contacting VRBO and a gentleman, I imagine one of the owners-not Shante, I don't know that I ever spoke with her; called back to VRBO they connected us. I was not very excited because I had been driving around without a specific address. I was only told Pratt. Nothing else. The scenery from the balcony was nice. There were some little ants that I was bitten by in the location. The a/c acted up and it started leaking down the wall and onto the floor. The owners did what they could to fix it. I appreciate the owner at the last minute allowing me a late check out which was 58 minutes past the time stated in the handbook. IGA was okay for groceries but others suggested going to other smaller stores which tend to sell things for cheaper. The worse things about the ordeal was having the male owner show no compassion.
Comment from Hotel Management

We are really sorry the experience was not what this guess was expecting, and that she though we were unsympathetic. This guest called us when she was on the road trying to find the property, and she was very very angry, she started to immediately scream at us, saying she never received instructions how to get to the property, at all. She did not say that she had them but that they were unclear. We politely told her the instructions are automatically sent to all guests when they book, and can be downloaded from this site once she has a fully paid booking. The instructions are also a full page, they provide detailed street by street description of when the driver must turn and how to get to the property, a photograph of the front entrance, the property number, as well as the GPS coordinates (which alone is sufficient to find the property). There is also only one property on the street and there is a big sign with the property name at the entrance. Although 98% of guests find the property, we absolutely understand that driving in a foreign country can be very challenging for some. We found out where the guest was, and then over the phone, we patiently directed her how to et to the property. Once she got there she then started complaining that there was nowhere for her to park near the unit she had booked. She again insisted she was right and there was none. Again, very politely, we explained to that there was sufficient space outside the unit to park, and that hundreds of guests have done so. In terms of cleanliness the property was inspected by a supervisor before check in, an no cleaning issues were reported. We don't have any reports of ac issues during the guest's stay, but the ac system was recently changed, it is state of the art, and it is serviced every few months. We are not sure what the guest's reference about the ac is to, but the AC has certain smart features that prevent prevent the motor from being overheated and damaged, eg if windows and doors are left open and the ac is cranked down very low it shuts itself off after a while to prevent overheating and engine damage. We don't have a report of the ac leaking water during this guest's stay, but the water is designed to be discharged outside. We spray regularly, and we don't have an ants problem, but if food is left out long enough, in the summer they will eventually appear. We leave bug spray in every unit for guest's use, as the numbers also increase when it rains.

Cute little studio

Posted Mar. 8, 2023 on HomeAway
Cute little studio. Needs more of the essential supplies. We only had 2 spoons. Also, the bathroom shower curtain was in desperate need of replacement - it was pretty gross. Also, this place is really close to the main highway which isn't obvious in the photos. Traffic was pretty noisy all night long. Overall, it was a comfortable bed with a nice deck. Maybe would stay again.
