Great views but also a few concerns
Beautiful views from the condo - gorgeous sunrises. Clean, peaceful pools. Great beach bar. Condo felt safe. Property manager (Liz) was terrific- cheerful & quick to respond. Remodeled kitchen & bathrooms. Main BR AC didn’t work. First tech said AC worked but 2 more hots nights led us to reach out again. Different tech (we left beach to meet the techs in condo each time) confirmed compressor needed to be replaced. For 5 days, we kept shades drawn to keep roomer cooler & kept blower on all night to have air flow, resulting in higher $$ electricity usage. To be fair, we like it cool so probably use more than average, but our usage was REALLY high -$260. Liz asked owners about discounting electricity given AC issues. Owners initially discounted 1 day. We asked for 50% & they then agreed to 2 days. Disappointing response given the impact it had. The grill was very dirty and the large chair on terrace was stained and smelled. The ½ BR needs maintenance. Silverware did not appear clean. One bedroom had stained sheets, a cigar underneath the bed, and clothing in the closet. The beach has some sargassum, but beaches were cleared 2x a day. Water was a bit cloudy. Loud partying and a 4am rooster impacted sleep -part of the DR experience! However, had beautiful day trip to Sanoa island. Great dinner at Onno’s. I think we were this unit’s first rental – condo really has potential & with some TLC, would be great rental. Liz manages numerous properties- we would rent from her again.
