Fishing with Dad
We had a great time. Long weekend taking my Dad Fishing at San Luis Pass. This was a great location for that and he needed the elevator since he has a hard time with stairs. He also enjoyed the elevated bed. We all slept comfortably. I was happy to be able to bring our sog along and enjoyed taking long walks around pointe westcomplex. The walking and cart paths are expansive. We did not use the pools so I can't comment on that. This condo had everything we needed. T We definitely come again.

Horrible Disrepair
The unit was gross. Comforters/shams were stained and old. Patio cushions were torn apart with filling spilling out. Can light in kitchen was hanging out of the ceiling. Baseboards in bathroom were chewed up. Bed lamp was broken. Outdoor light was broken (light bulb busted). When we checked in, the AC was set to 85. It smelled terrible of mold & mildew. Awful, disgusting unit.

Very disappointed I had planned to be there and had several days planned. When I got there the elevator was not working. I'm 82 and the unit was on floor 3. I called several times with different answers. Finally they canceled all my plans had to be rearranged

Elevators
Hello, the unit is lovely. I understand there is verbiage about the use of elevators. Though, no one communicated that the elevator was out and we were on the 3rd floor. I had to cancel my family the first night and move to a new condo for the next 2 nights. No refund or offer to move to other unit. I understand that things happen, though the office had said the elevator had been out for awhile. It should be communicated.

Beware of Vacasa Rentals
The only real problem with this stay was the fact that power was out one night then the elevator to the 3rd floor only worked intermittently. The local Vacasa manager was rude and would only communicate via text rather than returning a phone call. The manager told me that it was listed in the amenities section that the elevator didn't always work. This is not visible anywhere to a potential renter on VRBO or is you try to book directly on Vacasa. I tried to get moved because someone in my party has mobility issues and could not go up stairs to the 3rd floor from the parking garage. I was allowed to leave 4 nights early but only received $400 in credit when I only stayed one night in the unit.

Dirty, out of date and disgusting
The property looked NOTHING like the photos. It was disgustingly dirty. Took 15-20 photos in every single room to show the owner what it looked like. Lost over $600 on this rental as we left the next morning. They said they could have someone come in and clean it...why wasn't it cleaned before? By the amount of dirt and grime in the kitchen and on the floor, it was clear this hadn't been cleaned in a long time. I was in the middle of cancer treatment and didn't have any fight in me to write a review at the time. I explained to them I was sick and I just wanted a clean and comfortable place to relax and that I couldn't leave the property for 4-6 hours for cleaners to come in. ZERO compassion, zero accountability for the property being the way it was. Shame on you. If the property isn't as advertised, REFUND THE MONEY. ALL the money. Ridiculous I even have to write this. $600 + down the drain for staying less than 10 hours.

Disappointed
I have stayed at Pointe West multiple times and had a great experience. This condo is on the bayside not the beachside. It’s feels like the stepsister of Pointe West Condos. The grounds and condo were not the cleanest but were not the dirtiest. There is minimal accommodations in the condo and it is hot! The only comfortable place was in the living room with all the blinds closed. The patio furniture was broken and the metal chairs were missing the cushions. Sad to say this wasn’t the worst of it! I found the condo on VRBO but it’s managed by Vacasa. They do not respond to text messages within VRBO, you have to call an 800 number which tells you that there’s a long hold time or you text them. If you hold, you are connected to someone out of state…I think California. The first night I had a hard time connecting to the Wi-Fi because the power had gone out and the Xfinity modem was not available…I had to call again and they had a not so friendly lady in the area call me back. The last point I have is about safety. We went to dinner one night and came back to a pitch black parking garage. I had brought my little dog so walking her that night seemed unsafe. Oh btw the elevator goes out periodically and this unit is on the top floor.

This place was great for a short getaway during a long weekend. The area is really nice, and having access to a beach where no cars are allowed makes a huge difference.

It was well designed for a beach rental. The amenities were nice and easy to access. The beach was very close and never crowded.

Have experienced better accommodations at Pointe West
Have stayed at this condo development multiple times and have had excellent experiences. Unfortunately, this was a mediocre experience, at best. Condo shows signs of wear. Trim and cabinets look to have water damage. Walls, doors and handles were dirty. For the duration of our stay, the elevator was not working. Not pleasant, given that this was a 3rd floor unit. Also, check out time was 10am, which came as a surprise text message on our day of departure. After booking with VRBO, we began receiving communications with a company called Vacasa, which appears to be a property management company. Communication was cold and incomplete. There was not a list of what the condo did or didn't have. What was provided was minimal. Will avoid Vacasa and will look to book other privately managed units when returning to Pointe West.
