Great location!

The studio had everything we needed. We loved using the grill while we watched the stunning sunsets. We used the pool and hot tub often and we were 2 blocks from the Pinellas trail. We walked to Dunedin and biked the trail. Our host responded right away when needed.

Great Location, Quiet Stay

I recently stayed at Beso Del Sol and had a positive experience overall. The property and room were very clean and well-maintained. I was particularly impressed by how quiet the room was; I didn't hear any noise from neighboring rooms, which made for a very peaceful stay.The location was exceptionally convenient for my needs, perfectly situated between the wedding and reception venues I was attending.The only issue I encountered was a dead battery in the keycard reader, which prevented me from accessing my room for about an hour. However, the issue was resolved promptly.Despite the minor inconvenience with the keycard, I would definitely stay at Beso Del Sol again and would recommend it to others looking for a clean, quiet, and well-located stay in Dunedin.

All the conveniences in a beautiful setting

We wanted to stay at an affordable condo close to downtown Dunedin so we could walk to and from the condo. This provided all that and more! We had a nice balcony but didn't spend much time there because the view at the pool/ restaurant was even better. We were able to cook in the room also and that was nice to keep our costs to a minimum. The weather was a bit on the chilly side and there was no blanket for the bed which would have been nice- but we were able to adjust the temperature in the room to compensate. All and all it exceeded our expectations.

Beso del Sol

We stayed here in order to be near friends in Dunedin. It is a great location. Having the bar Marker 8 located here is a bonus. Our studio had everything we needed. Plenty of towels. The view wasn't great, but we were out and about most of the time so we did not use the patio. The pool chairs could be more comfortable, but we didn't spend a lot of time there. Friendly people at the office.

Good, but deferred maintenance

The property was as advertised, but needs some repairs. For example, one of the patio door deadbolts is broken out of the door frame, and the door is hard to open. Other parts of the condo are looking a bit shabby too, and could use some caulk and paint. The condo appeared generally clean, but the glass cooktop had a greasy film and streaks on it and looked a little gross. Given that, and the fact that the unit has no dishwasher I wasn't confident that the cups and glasses in the cupboard were truly clean, so I washed them before use. Other than that, the unit was perfectly serviceable, in a convenient location, and had a nice pool area. One thing that was a little odd in the building design was that there was a single elevator at one end of the building, and you have to zig-zag around each unit to get to yours. That was a bit of a chore dragging wheelie suitcases.

Dark room, uncomfortable bed and pillows!

We arrived very late for check in. Our door keys were in a basket at the base of the stairs, so all good! The photos of the unit makes it look bright and airy which is deceiving. The room has a single overhead light. The only light in the kitchenette is in the microwave. It was hard to see at times. What I thought was the color of the formica turned out to be a big coffee spill all along the back of the cooktop. The bed was sunken on both sides and pillows were too firm. Bring your own pillow if you can! The sheets kept coming loose from the mattress during the night and they were pilled and rough. All that made for a terrible five nights for me. We were given a roll of paper towels, used soap bars and a dishwasher pod. The unit does not have a dishwasher. You're told to buy whatever else you need which was a major pain since we didn't have a car. The elevator was on the far side from our unit which made for a lot of zigzagging. It was much quicker for us to take the stairs that were not far away. The bathroom has only a screenless window for ventilation. The windowpane fell out and broke on the walkway outside while we were gone for the day. We returned to an open window where anyone could have climbed in. The host was responsive and had the staff at the resort board it up with duct tape. It took 4 days for the glass to be replaced, but still no screen, and thankfully nothing was missing from our room. We were away on our last day until 9:30PM when I received the checkout email saying we were to launder the owners towels. I'm sorry but, I didn't have time to launder three small dish towels that I used to clean up a coffee stain that the host failed to do in the first place. That last night, we killed two giant cockroaches. I informed the host to call pest control. Sorry, but I would not stay in this unit again.
