Enjoyed Our Stay, 5 Star Property, but 4 Star Rental Experience
We loved the property. Very high end finishes and it lives up to the name as a ‘Five Star Property’. However, I am only giving 4 stars for these reasons: The large windows that faced the pool area were not cleaned well. It looked as if something was smeared all over them, so it definitely detracted from the pool view. Also, I believe we were supposed to receive wristbands to use the clubhouse amenities with our rental, but there was no information in the property for that so we didn’t want to go through the trouble of pursuing. Overall, we really enjoyed the property, but the outdoor pool area has some layout flaws. The dining area is too far away from the kitchen, so it was difficult to transport meals to the outdoor dining area. Also, the outdoor dining area has no airflow - at all - so it felt like being in a pizza oven during the day. During the evening, we couldn’t benefit from any of the breeze as it is closed off on 3 sides, so any airflow was blocked. This is the 3rd time we’ve had a rental through Five Star and we were generally pleased, but there were a few letdowns in a couple of areas (window cleaning and clubhouse amenities). The property layout is mostly nitpicking as the layout cannot be easily changed. Some additional shading (deck umbrellas) would be useful during the hot July sun too. Loved the pool and hot tub. The convenience of the bike rentals was a nice perk.
