This condo is VRBO listing #268470. Let me just say that this is the best condo we have ever rented. We arrived around 3:30pm and cleaning crew was still here. Both ladies were so nice and finished up quickly. They were knowledgable about local grocery stores and restaraunts. The pictures of this condo are completely accurate. The condo overlooks the pool and the hottub area and has a perfect view of the beach. Sunglow Pier is right next door for fishing and also has Crabby Joe's restaraunt. One elevator was broken during the weekend but was fixed promptly on Monday morning. Front desk staff is nice and helpful. All hallways/common areas were clean, pool and spa was sparkling. All furniture in the condo was clean and in perfect condition Recliner in the living room is fabulous!! My kids loved their room with the two beds and flat screen TV. Kitchen was well equipped with all that we needed. One of the best parts of this condo was that they provided starter tissues, soap, dish soap and paper towels. Most condos do not do that!! There was even coffee available although we brought our own. There were also boogie boards, highchair, playpen, water noodles and beach pails in the hallway closet!!! All in all, I give this condo an excellent rating. The owners were great to work with and always answered my emails promptly.

I want to start by saying we were looking for an affordable week-long rental in the Daytona area. As someone else said, there are about 900,000 units to rent in the area, so finding one that's nice, but affordable can be a daunting challenge. We happened to find one.

Also, know that each unit is individually owned, so the condition of each individual unit will vary. We rented unit 402. A quick rundown: the A/C worked fine. The entire unit was tiled, so there was no carpet to worry about. The furnishings were nothing special, but they were all functional and nothing was broken or worn out. The kitchen appliances were functional and modern. The bathrooms were both fine. The decor was fine, if nothing special. So, as far as this specific unit, I have no complaints (except perhaps I would have appreciated a ceiling fan in the master bedroom, but that's just me being finicky). There were three TVs with cable, two CRTs (in the bedrooms) and one HDTV in the living room.

Is this a luxury building? No. Is it a luxury price? Again, no. This was an affordable, but clean condo.

So, what about the building and grounds? First, the pool/hot tub/deck area was very nice. We had a unit overlooking the pool area and beach, so we saw the maintenance man meticulously cleaning and rearranging the deck area every morning. The whole area was clean and inviting. We visited for Memorial day weekend and the whole following week in 2012. They had just repaved the parking lot, and worked on the staircase to the beach, but, that was completed before we left, so no issues there. We had NO problems with parking.

Although some people had issues with elevators, when we were there, both elevators were working just fine for the entire week. The staff that we interacted with were friendly and accommodating.

The building is a little older, but it's been maintained fairly well. Again, it's not luxury by any means, but the price more than makes up for it. There are coin laundry facilities on site. I wish they had a recycling program at the building, but they don't (although you can drop your recycling into bins on the beach if you like).

As far as bugs, as others mentioned, we had no problems. We had no issues with fleas or roaches. We did have a few flies and other small flying insects, but that's just because this unit had no screens and we had left the sliding doors wide open to take advantage of the breezes.

All in all, my family of four had a terrific vacation at Sunglow. As I mentioned, with each unit being individually owned, I can't really speak to the other units, but if you're looking for a nice unit at a great price, I would recommend unit 402.
