Sea Breeze at Waterhouse by RedAwning

Truthfully, I’d give our recent stay at Gulf Dreams at Waterhouse 3.5 stars (but it won’t do halves). This was our third trip to this exact condo, our first under its new management with RealJoy, and to be honest, we were disappointed in the condition of the Unit. The place is in need of attention. It is obvious that basic maintenance has been postponed, which is inexcusable for a rental at this price point. For example, the bulb is out above the master tub. Kind of makes it difficult to bathe sandy babies. The glass is straight up missing from a sconce in master bath, so it’s just a bare lightbulb. There is quite a bit of mold in the master shower. The oven and stove are so worn that you can’t read temperature settings on the oven and you can’t tell which knob goes to which burner on the stove. There is an issue with the door of the washing machine to where it buzzes loudly and won’t start a cycle unless you bang on it. The stick vacuum provided for quick sand pickup isn’t operational. The exterior of the veranda doors were covered in sunscreen handprints on arrival. Cushions on the outdoor furniture are torn. I inquired as to if a Pack and Play was still included with the unit and was told that the new owners took it out. Not a big deal; we secured one for our trip. What was frustrating was to open the closet and find that one was indeed already there. Add all of this up with worn living room furniture (the edges of the sofas are shredding) and the need for a good coat of paint... I’m not sure we’ll be renting from RealJoy again.
