Nice & loved smaller condo with fewer rooms
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything in room was comfortable. Could tell it was older, but had everything needed and would stay here again.

Nice trip
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second time staying at Tropic Isle. We were in a different unit before. The location is good. We had plenty of room. It would have been nice to have had a closet in the master bedroom. Master bath is small. Other than that everything was good!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love to stay at this complex. However, Unit 503 was not clean and needs some updates. The floors were filthy, if you walked on them barefoot your feet were black in minutes. The ceiling fans were covered in filth. The plumbing gurgled!! I would recommend the property, just not this unit, weā€™ve stay in other units that were spotless.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location. Great View. Bed was comfortable. The Master bedroom did not have a closet available only a chest of draws. No where to hand up clothes. 2nd BR no chest of drawers. Liked the arrangement of beds in 2nd BR. Twin instead of bunks made it able to see out the window. Refrigerator & freezer were missing shelves. Two nice balcony chairs & two unusable chairs. This condo is okay for two people, but not for more than that. We would stay here every year if these issues were taken care of.

Tropic Isle nice clean complex!!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Tropic Isle 505 was in a great complex one of the cleanest Iā€™ve seen. They kept the pool area so nice. The unit was a corner unit with a great view of those beautiful sunsets. The condo was decorated very beachy which I loved but it needs to updated, some of the outside furniture (2 very nasty chairs need to be thrown away). It had very comfortable beds but the comforters were outdated. The refrigerator had shelves missing and the kitchen faucet needed replacing. Overall the the condo was great. It was also one of the cleanest places Iā€™ve stayed. Check in and check out was very easy. The condo was very close to everything and we loved our stay there.
