Time for a refresh!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It is time for a re-fresh of this unit. Most everything is original. There are some major and minor maintenance issues. One of the major issues is wood rot around the door and windows in the back bedroom.One of the minor issues is the cabinet door below the kitchen sink almost falling off.The front bedroom is especially noisy with foot and vehicle noise on Southard. The front bedroom door to the porch door does not close tightly which allows some of the noise in. Replacing the doors and windows with new hurricane doors and windows would help some. The front bed itself isn't the most comfortable and should be replaced.The stair carpeting is worn and your bare feet will show dirt from walking on them. The unit itself is a very nice but being over 30 years old, it is showing it's age and needs to be updated.

New Year’s in Truman Annex - Amberjack

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Amberjack is in a great location. 2 bed/2.5 bath has plenty of room. 2 porches and 2 balconies provide lots of outdoor space. Condo could definitely use some updating/fixes. Kitchen faucet was broken, cabinet doors were very loose, toilet was worn and scratched up. Bathrooms were very dated.

This year’s stay.

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We’ve stayed in several townhouses in the same price point and general location, unfortunately this one was the smallest and most in need of updating as well as some basic maintenance. If you’re looking for something a little more quiet, this is not the rental for you. Being at the entrance sounds like a great idea, but it is very noisy early in the morning with numerous garbage and work trucks rolling in and out.The cleaning staff did a great job and as always Compass Realty makes the whole process easy.

Very Clean

We love to stay in the Truman Annex and the Amberjack townhouse's layout is ideal for two couples or a family. The unit was VERY clean and the furnishings are nice. The fixtures are dated and could, maybe should, be updated. The only complaint we have is that the traffic, morning and night, on Southard Street is very noisy and will affect those sleeping in the upstairs front bedroom.

Great location!

The property was very nice and very well located. We didn't even rent a car, there is a nice bike rental place 50 meters from the front door. Easy ride/walk to the beach. Easy walk to Duvall (the main drag). Much has been made about the A/C. I understand the frustration but with ceiling fans, 75 was very enjoyable the whole week. My family highly recommends this house and world definitely stay here again.

Air conditioning needs repair. Toddler size toilets.

Nice property, excellent location, needs some upgrades. I will not go into the good as you can see that on the property listing. What you wont see is this taken from the Compass property management welcome letter paragraph 4 {Please keep the AC above 74: otherwise, you will freeze the system, you will become warm, you will get cranky, you will call our office, you will wait for the service tech and you will be charged for a service call to repair it, no exceptions.} This is not normal. I have lived in Florida over 40 years and purchased and repaired a large hand full of air conditioners. The AC unit in this rental needs repair to the condenser to stop the freezing issue. The result of not repairing the AC is that the property will feel very damp, and uncomfortable. This will also eventually lead to mold and other issues. The proper way to handle this issue would be to properly service and repair the AC, not to threaten guests against using the AC. We ended up making the best of our slightly cool and sticky rental with hope that future guests will not have to deal with this problem. Also please replace the child size toilets

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this rental. It was perfect for 2 couples, we each had our own bedrooms with an ensuite bath. The front bedroom is quite noisy, between the road noise and roosters. I recommend ear plugs or noise cancelling headphones. The location is phenomenal! Very close to Duval street, beaches, and restaurants. The house was spotless. There were a couple of very minor maintenance issues that were so minor I forgot to report. I highly recommend this house.

Beautiful community. The realty company was so hospitable and helpful. I can’t wait to return. The only thing that could have made the stay better was having the community pool open past dusk.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy 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 loved our stay at Truman Annex. We were disappointed with Amberjack. The biggest disappointment was cleanliness, specifically the floors. We did not feel comfortable not wearing shoes either in the house or on the outdoor patios. The patio's were totally disappointing. We had to clean all of the front patio furniture before using. The outdoor patio tiles were so dirty that there was no way to enjoy being outside without shoes. We own a rental in northern Michigan and the cleanliness of the outside is crucial. Our customers come to be outdoors not indoors. It should be no different in Florida. Also the knives in the kitchen. They were all so dull that I could not cut an apple...sounds trite but at the price we are paying we should have half way decent knives.
