Disappointing

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We found the agent, JB, to be difficult to work with. She has poor communication and customer service skills. She showed a low regard for her customers/guests safety, security and privacy. Her customers were not treated fairly or equitably.

Awesome Host and Property

We had a great stay on this property. The description matched exactly what we experienced when we got there. Great location and great amenities! We had an issue with one of our showers, but Jackie was awesome on working to get it fixed. Great communication and follow thru. I would definitely stay at one of the properties she manages again in the future. Looking forward to another visit soon!

Great stay

The condo was clean, safe, and plenty of space for the 4 of us! The kitchen supplies were great! The towel supply was not but we had to wash several times during our stay and would have preferred washer/dryer in condo but that was not a deal breaker. Overall, great stay and the landlord was easy to contact through the email/app! Quick response time which I appreciated!

Family Vacation w/ Older Teens

I was pleasantly surprised as the view from the balcony was better than pictured. I would even say the rental was cuter and more cozy than pictured. When they say starter supplies they really mean it. You will definitely need to bring toilet paper and maybe paper towels and trash bags if you’re staying more than a couple of days.

Cozy and enjoyable stay

This was our first trip to Alabama. We wanted a property that was a bit more secluded but still had plenty of amenities. While the unit was pretty small, it met our needs for our busy, active family. The host left plenty of instructions and made check-in easy. My only complaint would be that you were instructed to not use the bedspreads, or risk a cleaning fee for soiling. I have never been asked to do this anywhere I’ve stayed. Thankfully, we came prepared with our own blankets. Outside of that oddity, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again! Thank you for a memorable vacation!

Not ADA Compliant

The property is fine for people who are not disabled but I was under the impression that this condo was ADA-compliant for my disabled husband who can walk a few steps with help but is otherwise in a wheelchair. He could not navigate the bathroom very well and we fell when trying to get out of the shower. He could not move around very well in the unit, getting onto the balcony was impossible from the bedroom and a challenge from the living room. Otherwise, the unit was clean and the location was perfect.

The condo did have a great view.

Upon arriving at 4:30 pm the condo wasn't ready until 6pm. when I asked about a discount on it being two hours late they said that the agreement said it could be but a delay of hours but I read and reread my agreement and it didn't state that at all. Also, upon entering the condo the shower stall was molded and instead of calling to let them know I went to wal-mart and got some tilex to clean it myself since they had just finished cleaning it and didn't do a good job. The bath rug was under the vanity and looked like it had been used for a month without being changed out. The condo itself was a good size and the view was great. Beds were comfy too. I was informed that when they charged me both times for the rent that they had made a mistake of 9. 18 and it will be deducted from the deposit refund. I think that it was their fault of the mistake and poor customer service to take it from the deposit. I normally don't write a review but this time I feel like this has been very poor customer service with a bad attitude from them. I will not book from them again nor do I plan to stay at The Plantation again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was ok , beware the price doesn’t include a parking space ,that will be $35 extra and the only tv channels we found were just the free stuff provided by the tv manufacturer.

Short trip with kids.

This place was amazing. Out of the hustle and bustle, but close enough if you want more things to do. My goal was to soak up the seconds with my children. And the ease with the reservations and check in helped so much with that.
