We very much enjoyed our stay at this beautiful unit. The building is well-maintained, the furnishings in the unit are all very nice, the towels are of decent thickness, the property management company was responsive and a pleasure to work with; and the grounds, pool,, etc. are beautiful.
That being said, the parking in the parking garage is wholly inadequate for the size of the building. The spaces are tiny, the lanes are very narrow, and there simply are nowhere near enough parking spaces for the number of units in the building. Parking was a struggle every time we came back to the building. We had a handicapped permit for our vehicle because one of us is disabled and has severe mobility issues, but even with the permit, we often had nowhere to park. I think there were maybe 3 wheelchair/disabled parking spaces, but finding ANY parking was a miracle.
Our other issue is that the unit is not very well supplied as far as sauce pans, frying pans, baking pans, serving ware and other kitchen basics. The cupboards were mostly bare because very little was provided. In addition, there were absolutely NO necessities provided as far as aluminum foil, spices, storage containers, plastic bags, etc. We rent through Vrbo on a frequent basis and have rarely, if ever, stayed at a property (especially one in this price range) that did not provide basic kitchenware and accoutrements that would allow you to cook pasta, sauce and a vegetable for four people.
It should also be noted that the ice maker in the freezer produces ice about as fast as a moving glacier. Plan to buy ice at the market in the lobby.
Duke’s restaurant on the property serves a wonderful dinner in a beautiful setting. Duke’s also provide poolside service during the day, but the poolside service is spotty and the poolside drinks are sub-par. You are better off making dinner reservations and eating in the restaurant rather than ordering poolside.
Again, it is a beautiful property, but because of the parking and the lack of basic kitchen items, we give it an overall 4-star rating.
