Coastal Charm Cozy 1BR Retreat near Pompano Beach

Roaches ceiling on the grown

I waited a month to review as to give a fair evaluation. My husband and I spent 3 weeks at this property and we loved the location ... but that was the only positive. The apartment was filthy. We never took of our shoes once! I actually threw my slippers out on the last day. Additionally, 2 cockroaches during our stay was not pleasant. In fairness, I reached out to Eric, the manager, and he sent someone with pest control. The stove never worked which was a problem since we were there for 3 wks. I requested an air fryer, which he had sent over same day. The futon was not suitable for sitting, let alone sleeping. My husband sat in his camping chair every night. Finally, the AC units both malfunctioned during our stay - twice! Again, Eric sent someone but it meant I had to wait in the apartment all day until someone showed up. We were never offered compensation.

The property management company was always available to speak to and I appreciate that they made accommodations when they needed. However, the unit was not as clean as expected. The rug appeared to not be vacuumed and the floors were dirty to the point of darkening the bottoms of our feet on the first night. The futon is also not comfortable to sit on to watch tv. It is too worn-in where you can feel the coils while sitting. Even more importantly, the futon is not suitable to sleep on. They should purchase a new futon or pull-out couch so as to appropriately sleep 3-4 people. Fortunately, we had family nearby, so we used the blow-up mattress for the remainder of the trip.

this might be great for a couple looking for hotel like room.However if you wanted a functioning apt this is not for you. The third double bed' is a futon that one sinks down to metal frame in 2 spots if you try to sit on it much less sleep. We got a blow up bed for our adult daughter. this was reported but not corrected by owner. The entrance codes written on VRBO web site at 10 minutes post check in was incorrect. The wifi codes were also incorrect. We called and got that corrected on phone. The washer is outside the apt around the back of apt building and costs $2. The oven was not working , as we found out the day before Thanksgiving. This was acknowledged by the owner but never corrected. There was construction outside the front door and on 3 sides of the apt. the bobcats were going from am to pm and entrance to apt was obstructed all day the last full day .The jackhammer was at times in front of doorway. Parking was an issue as piles of dirt sand and bricks were in parking areas. Bobcat not really watching for people trying to enter apt. My daughter was working on this vacation but had to leave to get reliable wifi multiple times and gave up on working from apt. This was also mentioned to owner. Night time noise was loud till well after midnight. moving furniture upstairs and sounded like construction going on upstairs. Not a place for you if seeking quiet. Kitchen has some scratched older pots but no dish towels to dry dishes. Was close ocean

The good points are that the room was clean, the location if the apartment was was good and close to the peir. Unfortunately the front door didnt lock so anyone could get in the room which meant we basically lived out of the car for the weekend because we couldnt leave any belongings anytime we went somewhere. I was told it was fixed mid-day after we got there but when we returned it was still not and the person i was texting with got quite snippy with me when i continued to struggle to figure it out (i only struggled because it was still broken when they said it was fixed!). Maintenace finally came back out that night, immediatley saw it was broken and had to replace the entire lock. There were no linens for the foldout in the living room and when they did bring them it was just sheets and no blanket. The foldout is essentially the size of a twin bed with a hard beam that runs down the middle of it. There is no other additional seating in the living room (fit 3 average size adults but with no space between us). There is also not a washer/dryer in the unit as was listed but instead onsite coin laundry.
