In short, the listing over-sells the house a bit, but the flaws are easily overlooked given it’s proximity to one of the best beaches in the world.
None of the little things that we found impacted our stay or the fun we had at the house and we found that issues raised in previous reviews from a month or two persisted. While the management company did notify us - the day of our arrival - that the roof hot tub was not working properly it should be noted that this problem was mentioned in a review from July. So it’s a bit disingenuous when the repair person who came on Monday stated that is was “done” and needed to be removed. But then again - it’s a hot tub on the roof - that’s not why we went to Captiva.
Otherwise, minor - handyman fixable - things like shower doors that didn’t stay closed, bleach stains on the stairs, and rugs that could use a refresh were a little bit of a letdown, but again - nothing major.
In all the house was roomy, the elevator was a major plus, it was incredibly clean, and just a quick walk to the beach. Hopefully the management company will take these reviews - not as criticism - but as suggestions on how to improve the property.
We would certainly rent from them again, but maybe spend a little more for a more updated house.
