Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a sad experience. Proper maintenance not being done on the units which caused me to have to do work that the people who get paid to maintain them should have been doing. I had an issue and left a voicemail message regarding the matter and never heard back from anyone. New management company or employees I feel. I came back because in 2022 I had a great experience. That will not be the case next time as I have many choices.

The condo itself is great for a family. Clean, in fairly good condition. Awesome, giant patio with great views of the beach and ocean. Beds are worn out and not comfortable. Also easy access to the beach just out front. HOWEVER, the rental management for this company is terrible. The elevator of the building has been out for weeks (likely due to the hurricane), which we understand is not their fault, but they only alerted us the day before arrival even though we’d booked two months before. I’m 80 years old with mobility issues, and walking up and down 4 flights of stairs to enter / exit our unit was physically and mentally trying, as well as dangerous. If we had known, and they should have disclosed long before they did, we would have found another place to stay. Additionally, the wifi was out, meaning we didn’t have internet or TV. They only came to fix it the last night of our stay. I was in town to celebrate my birthday with my daughters and family, and the issues with the building and management company put a huge strain and damper on the experience. Only AFTER we reached out to them to express our concerns and distress, they offered us a measly $180 refund on a $1400 rental if we signed a ‘hold harmless’ agreement. They gave us a late check out, the least of which they could when they had no guests arriving after us. (Also note they have a ridiculously early 10 AM checkout time.) We will not be staying here again if Beach Time Rentals continues to manage.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Booking was very easy and the communication was good. Julian was very helpful and considerate. Unfortunately we did have a few issues with the property. The location was fantastic. The apartment was clean on arrival and very tastefully decorated. We did have some trouble with the garbage disposal clogging requiring maintenance to need to make a trip out. It initially cleared without much trouble but did repeatedly suffer backup requiring use of a plunger to get it to flow again- about 3-4 occasions. Additionally we were unsure why the the laundry room was super warm every time the dryer was used. We found that the deyer vent tubing was ripped and torn off. We had to have the maintenance gentleman return. The room with 2 beds stayed very warm. Our teenage girls were in there and we did not realize how much so to the point of the floor itself felt hot. Unsure what was located below that room. Considering the cost of the room for the week I expected things to be better.

The elevator in the building didn’t work most of the time we were there so we had to climb the stairs which isn’t great for us.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Villas of Clearwater Beach was amazing. Location is right on the gorgeous beach of Clearwater. The property was clean, roomy, well maintained and had all the conveniences we needed. We spent our days swimming in the beautiful ocean, walking the beach or basking in the sun. We enjoyed morning coffee on the Oceanview porch and later watching the sunset over the ocean with a relaxing glass of wine. There are lots of great shops and restaurants in the area which we also enjoyed. Frenhcy's was a favorite. We would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting a memorable and enjoyable vacation. Julian, the concierge, provided us with top notch customer service as he was always a phone call away to answer any questions we had. Looking forward to returning in the near future.

Reviewer Comments: Overall you cannot beat the view and convenience to the beach. Dental was dated, except for the bathrooms. After one shower in the master shower, the drain clogged. We reached out to our contact for the rental, Julian, and he said maintenance would come. They never did...for what you pay to rent the unit, you should have better customer service.
