Upon booking we were filled with excitement. Its a ideal and perfect location for gorgeous beaches and sights. No real complaints regarding that.
However lets start with the facility itself. Outdated and aging showing in many regard, pools were nice but also dated with chipping and unsafe areas, outdoor tables and chairs were the very worst ive experienced. Water was SO cold (NOT HEATED). Insane and super strict rules and regulations upon arrival. Unfriendly permanent residents who I guess are not fans of outside renters.
The condo itself is in utter despair. Despite being refunded our cleaning fee after reporting the absolute flithe that resided within we did not receive much help from the office. We had a 8, 4, and 1 year old with us. This condo is not kid friendly at all. Nothing within the condo really is for kids. No toys, for pool or sand, beach chairs anything accommodating really. No cleaning supplies are supplied either which was a real pain in the butt when we arrived, unpacked and realized our children's feet were black and our baby who still crawls mind you, legs, hands and everything were black and disgusting. We took pictures of everything and the condition the condo was left in for us. The blinds were broken and would not close, mold in the bathrooms, and the couch smelled God awful. We have stayed at condos all over the state of FL and I would not return to this one despite managements assurance that we booked the "bottom of the barrel" type condo and they have others that are much better. The facility itself I don't believe was enough for a return either.
Overall we paid a great deal for this condo and it is NOT worth it at all. There are much better condos with the same beach access if not better that are cleaner and have updated common areas.
This is my complete and honest feedback. No intentions to bash the condo business or area. St. Augustine was some of the most beautiful beaches we have seen we simply do not believe besides that and the sight of the Ocean from the Condo was the place worth nearly a fraction of what we paid.
Thanks
