Had a great time, definitely is dated and could use some upgrades. The beach is a walk away but other than that it was nice and close to everything.

The experience of this place was tranquility when you needed the peace and quite and exciting and fun when you were in the mood. The place is close proximity to grocery stores, eatery and games for the children.
Awesome experience!!! I can't wait until next year.

Thank you for submitting your feedback ! This unit is set to be remolded very soon with new furniture amongst some other upgrades. We apologize and hope that you will be a guest of ours in the future.
I imagine that our host Cindy is wonderful, but I never had to speak to her since everything was so easy in regards to our stay!
Check-in was made very easy with the availability of luggage carts and shopping carts (great idea) and the front desk clerk.
The unit was very clean and well appointed with beach towels and everything we needed to start our stay. The Islander’s two pools are great, and the beach access is just a minute or two walk. The beach attendant took care of the umbrella and two chairs that are a part of the rental, which was very nice!! The umbrella was huge!
The location of The Islander to restaurants and family fun activities is very convenient as well.

The rental was nice with great views. If you are looking for immaculate this is not your place, the showers have caulking that’s moldy and falling out the bed is very hard and the pillows are basically pillow cases. If you just need a place to lay your head and want beach service it’s fine

Overall it’s a really nice place. The ac wasn’t really strong enough to keep our room as cool as we’d like. When we arrived there was still debris in the master bath( the top to an aerosol can of sorts). That just makes you wonder about the attention to detail. If that was neglected, what else was left undone.

We love the Islander, its location and the people who vacation there. This year didn’t disappoint! The couch in our unit was old and uncomfortable. Living room only had 2 table lamps with dark shades. Could not read.. Bathroom tub/showers were a death trap. Climb in, slick, nothing to hold on to, very old fixtures.

Thank you for submitting your feedback ! We apologize that you were less then pleased with some items in the unit but we will make sure to let the owner know your recommendations. We look forward to having you as a guest in the future.
The property states it’s beach front. It is not. You can see the ocean from the balcony but you have to walk the entire property to get to the beach access point.
The master bedroom is the hottest room in the condo. My husband and I slept separately for two nights because it was so warm in the bedroom. (I slept on the couch.) It may have been better if we could have turned the air down past 67. We found a box fan in the closest and had to sit it in the master bedroom door entry to get any kind of relief. We barely slept. We are looking forward to getting home and sleeping in a cool bedroom and catching up on the sleep we did not get on this trip.
