Family Vacation - School Break from NH
Review Submitted: May 14, 2009
Date of Stay: April 2009
Condo living vs. hotel rooms... no brainer! Since we have two teens and a twelve year old, we normally need to rent two hotel rooms as of late. By far, this was way more affordable.
This "home away" is clean, attractive, spacious, and has a nice view of the ocean, and golfers, putting on the greens. The beach is clean and beautiful to walk on, especially early mornings. The pools were clean and well maintained (we swam in 3 of the 4 pools.) This is a "serene" community with many retirees, so keep that in mind at the common areas and pools. But, the beach is so vast that it can accommodate noisy play and romping.
The cleaning person does a very nice job in the condo.
Having the owner make herself available for calls, and information via e-mails minimized worries of renting.
Local food shopping easily available, a trip to Kennedy Space Center, nice movie theatre in Port St. Lucie, 2 hours to Disney, beautiful weather, local restaurants. Mary, the rec director on site at Ocean Village, was energetic and helpful. We had a great vacation. This April week seemed to be during "low" season; which had its pros and cons.
More relaxed, less crowded, warmer weather (it was beautiful each day!) but there was a lot of island construction (didn't hear it in Ocean Village), village property maintenance on-going, tennis lessons not available, restaurant on site was closed 'til October.
I would highly recommend this rental property!
Thanks!
