The instructions on how to get in or clear and understandable. We stepped inside Kris cottage and it was beautiful. It was clean. It was wonderfully laid out beautifully decorated. The bunk bedroom was a hit with the littles. Any issue we had was addressed promptly and fixed. Our pool was closed for two days for some reason that the customer service at Sanddollar one helped provide us with an alternate pool to use even though that morning our pool was back open. We love the area never stayed that far down on 38 before The neighbors in the neighborhood were awesome and very welcoming.

It was wonderful and the golf cart was a plus !!!

1. When we booked the house in February, the description was “golf cart included”. But once we arrived, they said it’s $700 a week. 2. The backyard was not prepared for renters, it was very dirty. 3. The mattresses were in terrible condition, especially in the master bedroom. It was impossible to sleep on. It had a lot of huge yellow and brown spots. 4. The room above the garage smelled damp and moldy. It was impossible to stay there during the day or overnight. 5. The garage was locked. 6. There is nothing in this house for the beach like chairs, sand toys, etc. 7. The pool is clothing at 7:15pm which is very early. 8. Walk to the beach takes about 20-25 min. I do not recommend renting this house for the family beach vacation especially with kids.

The home was beautiful and the neighborhood is beautiful, quiet and safe. Renting a golf cart made the short trek to the beach very nice. It was nice that every room had their own bathroom. We really enjoyed our stay and were sad it’s over.

The house had plenty of room for the family

If you’re planning a beach vacation, you may want to think twice before renting from Sand Dollar One management company. We recently had a terrible experience with this particular company, and we’re here to warn you of the potential pitfalls. 

We paid a heavy cleaning fee, yet the home was in need of many repairs. The toilet seats were old and needed to be replaced, and there were multiple items from previous renters under the mattresses. The kitchen drawers had old food crumbs, and the coffee maker needed to be cleaned before we could use it, just to name a few. We also paid for a gas golf cart, but it was not provided until three days into our rental and they refuse to consider any reimbursement. 

The management company does not work on the weekends, so if you need anything, you’re out of luck. The rental was also very expensive compared to other rentals closer to the beach. The neighbors didn’t like the rental groups, and they complained of children playing outside, laughter unwelcome. 

It was clear that the management company didn’t care about our experience, but only about the money. Paying through Vrbo just ensures that you will not get a refund when it’s due to you. We have made this trip for thirty years, and this management company was by far the worst. 

We hate giving a bad review online, but this one was earned. If you’re planning a beach vacation, we urge you to stay away from Sand Dollar One management company.

8 adults and one infant stayed 5 nights. Cooked all dinners and lunches at house. Publix close proximity. Grill was great, could use some long handle grill tools. Description could include driving guest might consider bringing additional dish soap/laundry pods/trash bags/TP/napkins etc. We inquired about keurig which was onsite. Asked about a crockpot which was provide along with hot pads. Management group was very responsive to our requests.

Great bathroom to bedroom ratio. Easy walk to beach.
