hidden dunes 211
the images shown on the listing have the same layout as the apartment with a few differences. the neighborhood and home were nice, however, it was quite a distance to the beach. it’s about 6 minute walk to the pathway that arrives at the beach. it is however, pool side,though you have to walk around the building to get there. property manager however was very friendly and helpful. would recommend if you don’t mind the walk. overall would stay again

Nice, but several issues
1)Dishwasher broken and no one could fix until today after we left
2) Refrigerator did not cool so I pulled it away from wall and cleaned the fan which was absolutely filthy
3) Microwave door handle broken
4) Large burner on left of oven knob broke
5) Upstairs breaker had switched off so we had to get that reset too
All in all it was not the best experience and we would not return to this property again

This unit badly needs new furniture. Living room furniture was not comfortable. The carpet is disgu
The carpet is disgustingly dirty. The floors were not much better. King bed very hard. Hall bath/shower knob does not work properly, either cold or scalding water, no in between. Kitchen sink leaked under, was “fixed” with a bucket under it. Will not stay in this unit again.

Spring Break
The location was great. The condo is a bit outdated. New furniture is needed and the carpet needs to be cleaned. The place was clean and we had everything we needed. Just needs some cosmetic updates.

It was just ok
We had a fantastic week in Mirimar. The beach was beautiful and the resort itself is fantastic. And the price is right for the area. But..........
Prior to our arrival we're informed that our unit with 2 bathrooms may be without a shower as it is being redone. The property manager "hoped" it would be complete prior to our arrival. It was not. We checked in on Saturday and the update was that it would be complete on Monday. The contractor didn't show. We finally had a second shower by half way through our visit. The biggest issue was the work literally only took an hour to complete and that the property manager basically told me "oh well, I can't control the contractor's schedule"
Some notes on the unit itself:
The pictures show a beautiful pool right outside the unit. The pool is beautiful but is accessed by walking completely around the building.
It is an easy 10 minute walk to the beach. Be aware that there are a fair amount of stairs to go down to the beach and back up to walk back. There is a small amount of parking closer to the beach access to minimize your walk if you want. I used the White Diamond beach service located there and they were fantastic. (I sent multiple messages to the property manager prior to our stay asking about parking and got no reply)
The furniture is tired and needs replaced.
The stove had knobs completely broken off rendering 2 burners unusable.
Most of my unhappiness lies with the property manager. Poor communication with no concern for your satisfaction once they have your money. All in all the stay was great but regardless I just would avoid Best Beach Getaways whenever possible. (FYI this is not a knee jerk review. I waited 2 weeks to let everything settle)

Can not use Master Shower
The afternoon prior to departing to the rental we received a email that the master shower was not to be used. This was a problem with 6 adults and 2 children. We did enjoy our time here but going to this part of the coast was like leaving Atlanta and coming to Atlanta, trafic is terrible.

Smelled like animal had died
Renting was the easiest however there where no instructions about the parking for 1/2 mile walk to beach pictures of the premises are deceiving in my opinion
