Very clean and open condo. The beds were comfortable with space for our group. We visited the pool 2 days, not crowded with plenty of chairs. We had all the supplies we needed. The owner was easy to communicate with and accommodated a later checkout with our flight departure. I will be visiting this spot again.

Great location and support from the property manager

This location was great-- clean and quiet. The property manager was also very responsive. My issue with this listing was in the communication of the property. I selected a unit that had a max capacity of 6 because we were attending a graduation at UF, and I had family members who needed time to confirm their attendance. Basically, I selected the unit because I would have a max of 6 guests. Once I received the check-in information, I was told that I needed to update my reservation (which was listed at 4) to include my additional person (and pay an additional fee). While the fee was minimal, it still did not track with what I have encountered before at VRBO. Once we got into the unit, the paper there said that I would need to pay for additional guests if I had more than 6 at the unit (which actually made more sense). Next, on the listing, it stated that there was parking in the front of the unit. However, there were no restrictions identified in the listing itself. BUT on the welcome email, it clearly stated that only two cars would be permitted to park at the unit at any time. Again, this was only a slight inconvenience for us, but others may have adult children with multiple cars without options of where to park the extra cars. Overall, this place and the manager were great for our needs. I hope that the manager will align the language of the paperwork and communication to match the listing for future guests.

All communications was provided prior to your reservation, once you booked and then again for your arrival instructions. Our condo does sleep 6 but we charge a very small fee of $15 to offset the additional cleaning of the extra linens. We have only allowed 2 vehicles at all times due to HOA restrictions. I find your review somewhat misleading since you never brought this up when I spoke to you on text message or at any time during your stay and since you asked no questions of me. I would have been more than happy to clear up any miscommunication and make it right had I been given the opportunity but this review was the first time I was advised of this issue. Based on our text messages it seemed you had a good stay. We apologize for any inconvenience.
