We love the smaller building with less people. We love the pool area and beach access. The condo was clean but just ok. In need of a little bit of updates. Furniture is old. Coffee maker is old. Bathroom fixtures old and leaking. It did not have a dining table or recliner as shown in the online pictures. The price should include the beach chairs and umbrella.
Manager response:
Hi, William! Thank you so much for letting us know about your experience. The bathroom fixtures have been checked for leaks. The dining table and recliner were removed during Hurricane Sally renovations and replaced with other items. New photos have been scheduled. We hope to host you again!

Loved the condo, but in bad need of light blocking curtains especially in the living room where one of our guests slept- or tried to. Also the TVs don’t work very well. Tv in guest room 2 is at odd angle, the huge tv in the closet would be much better with some rearranging of the room. Overall would stay here again, bringing my own curtains lol

The condo itself was great. The only issue was that their curtains were very thin so the light would come in very early in the morning. If you have a baby, you may want to bring something to hang so you can keep the light out and avoid early morning wakings.
My main issue was with Vacasa. It was not clear whether the parking passes were included in the fee. I thought they were but got an email saying I had to call and pay for them. When I called, it seemed no one could answer me and I ended up being charged then refunded. It was a pain to deal with so I won’t be using Vacasa in the future.
Manager response:
Thank you for staying with us, Lindsey. We are so glad you enjoyed staying at this condo. We apologize for any confusion surrounding parking passes and appreciate your suggestion regarding clarification in the listing. It has been updated to accurately reflect the cost of parking. We have also added temporary curtains until the owner can add permanent drapes in the fall. Thank you for your feedback and we hope to host you again very soon!

We loved everything about our stay at Tropic Isle. It was clean and just perfect for my family. Our balcony view was fantastic. I also loved the good communication about how to get in the room and what to do about parking. The personal sign and candy left to welcome my family was a special touch we all loved, especially my kids.

Right on the beach, and spacious.
Donna A.Sep 2020
This was our sons first beach trip. We loved how convenient the beach access was. We also enjoyed the parking the facility provided.
Unfortunately we were not impressed with the cleanliness of our room.
Manager response:

Great home, great view.
Michael A.Jun 2020
I loved the firepit on the patio overlooking the ocean. The beach walk accessible through the pool. This room comes with garage parking which was a huge bonus. Me and my wife shared this room which was really too big for two people and just right for four to six people. We loved this condo and will be booking again.
