We had the best time in Florida. Our host, Michelle, made everything very easy and answered any questions we had quickly. The accommodations were very neat and clean and included everything we could possibly need. We loved the heated pool and hot tub that were included, because the ocean was a little chilly during our stay. The beach access was also a bonus, the kids and I could get up and walk the beach every morning with out driving anywhere. This was our first vacation not staying in a hotel and we will definetly be doing this again.

The condo was clean as expected and was complete with the beach towels, wagon and toys for the beach. We would definately stay at this condo again if we come back to the area. On the first day the elevator we should have access to was broken. When a text was sent to the person in charge she took care of it the next day due to the company being closed. The area is not what was expected because it stated ocean front. There's a beach road that you have to cross from the condo to get on the beach. The pools both have chairs that need to be cleaned or replaced and the fruit trees need to be romoved as they made a mess on the deck and chairs.

Everything and more

Can’t say enough good things about this place. Michelle checked in with us numerous times and kept us updated throughout the week. She has everything you need and more. I usually bring extra trash bags and zip lock bag…I didn’t need to, Michelle had those covered. Need extra sunscreen or aloe….already there too. Basically, all the things that you might find yourself running to the store for are already thought of and taken care of. We brought our Golden Retriever who absolutely loved sitting out on the balcony with me to people watch. Access to beach was great and the “chair guys” were amazing…even offered to run to gas station to get me an Alani. The pools, pickle ball courts and cornhole boards were fantastic when we needed a break from the beach. The location of the resort is also great- easy to grab a bite to eat and shop! Would definitely stay here again!

A little slice of heaven on this side of Earth

My family has stayed in several condos on Maravilla’s property, and this one has been our favorite. The property and its amenities are wonderful with a short walk across the street to the beach. Pictures accurately depict the condo. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, pots, pans, etc. Michelle’s timely communication and consumer service was top notch. Looking forward to booking again for our next trip!

Spring break visit

This was a great home to spend the second half of our spring break. The property was as listed and had lot of amenities for the beach. It's also very near plenty of restaurants and amusements. The owner was very responsive to our questions. We had a small issue with getting warm showers but I'm sure it will be rectified. The owner has notified us that the property was undergoing a major renovation. The work did impede our movement and caused a good bit of dust and noise. That made it a 4.5 star visit for us but I understand the work will be completed in a few months.

We loved everything about this trip! The owner is amazing! The communication is top notch, no BS! She made sure we knew there would be construction during our stay and kept us updated on it, when she was made aware of a situation, she told us immediately. She had an unexpected situation come up right before our dates and we were impressed by the way she handled it! We loved the property, the items in the condo that were available to us, the location, everything was great!
