“Wanted to Love it...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 October 2011
2
people found this review helpful

This hotel has a great location that can't be beat and the size of the condos were perfect. It was a great place to visit with children as you could walk to 1st street locations and the park. The pool was right on the beach so kids could fish and play while the adults enjoyed the pool. The problem came in with the rooms. We had viewed room 214 however were given 314. When we walked in the carpet was filthy. It certainly had not been vacuumed. After we vacuumed, still filthy. Our family stayed in 109 which was a bit cleaner yet the stray cats on the property kept going the bathroom under their porch, creating a horrible smell. I was so disappointed as the staff was so nice, the location perfect and the potential is tremendous. Unfortunately I cannot get beyond how dirty this hotel was and our fear of using anything in the units and/or walking on the carpet even after we had sanitized, washed and cleaned everything in the unit. Very disappointing...

“Cat Lovers Dream YUK!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We rented two units. 314 (2 bedroom) and 109 (1 Bedroom). The property is perfectly located and has a nice pool and a beach in front. The problem with the place is that it is absolutely filthy. The grounds are covered with stray cats whom the staff actually feeds! The stench of cat dropping was so intense beneath the waterfront porch of room 109 that my inlaws could not use it. They actually left early even with the room paid for another day. I stayed in 314 and it was just plain gross. The carpet had huge stains and actually was entirely discolored with filch. We tried to vac to make do as we had rented it for 4 days but the carpet was too disgusting to make much difference. It is obvious that the staff does not have a clue. They are really nice, friendly, but they don't notice the state of the place or the rooms. If you enjoy living in a kennel for cats, rock on you will love this place. I don't know, maybe they are trying to corner the "Cat Lady" market?

Room Tip: Go to another Hotel.

What a great place........A 2 bedroom,2bath,with a washer dryer,kitchen with dish washer and living room on the 3rd floor over looking the Gulf....what a beautiful place....clean and fully stocked with everything you need...The view was amazing....the pool and hot tub a plus...spent most of out free time there....we drove around in the condo,s golf cart taking pictures of all the scenery and buildings which was nice.......everything was just wonderful and would go back in a minute......we were a party of 5 with different interest..from fishing from the pier to lazing by the pool to taking pictures of rustic building...we were there from Monday through Thursday so it was a little slow but that didn't compromise our stay at all.....we just want to kick back and enjoy life....We eat supper out on the balcony, watched dolphins , pelicans as we enjoyed the peace of the day.....Love it,,,recommend it to all that want or need to get away from the fast pace of everyday life........planning on going back again soon......staff is helpful and makes you feel welcomed and a part of the family.......

Room Tip: All condos are privately owned...but the building is very well kept up ....not sure but it doesnt ap...

“Very comfortable; superb location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 August 2011

We spent a week at the Island Place. Very nice size, modern facilities, and comfortable for a "condotel". Where we were staying, on the southeast side of the property, the wireless WIFI signal was too weak. If that's important to you, select a room near the office. Park in your assigned spot. When we checked in, our assigned spot was occupied. the clerk told us to park anywhere, which we did. The next morning, the guy whose spot I was parked in "keyed" out my work parking sticker on my car. Not the Island Place's fault, though. Spa was closed for 5 of the 7 days I was there because they were waiting for a repair part.
