    Margie K from Magnolia, TX recommends this vacation rental

    Overall, not bad. The Keurig coffeepot did not work at all and when we said something at the ftont desk, they said there was nothing they could do about it. We brought pods for that pot since the pictures indicated that there was a coffee pot that used pods. That was an onconvenience. There were ugly stains on the couch! It looked like somrone spilled coffee or was it a bathroom ‘accident’? The tv was very difficult to figure iut how to usr. You should have left some kind of instructions. Thst would have been helpful.

    a guest from Wheelersburg, OH recommends this vacation rental

    We have stayed at the islander for the last 5-6 years. Our stay was overall good however the new policy is only 4 beach towels per room and when you book the room for 6 well you need 6!! Towel exchange is only a couple days a week which stinks... would prefer to be able to exchange daily if needed. Our room didn’t have enough pillow cases or linens for the pull out couch bed. The staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful.

    We stayed at the Islander in unit 405 with our two small children. It was the perfect size and distance from the pools and beach. The unit was clean and everything worked great. Having the beach chairs/umbrella was perfect for trips down the beach but our kids were just fine hanging in the pool too. It was nice to have both options.

    The Islander is amazing! Our condo was spacious and had a nice view of the ocean. Having two pools to choose from was a bonus. The staff was very helpful and friendly. You can’t beat the location! Just about a mile and a half away from Target and Winn Dixie, and plenty of good restaurants are within a short driving distance. I would definitely stay at The Islander again.

    Overall my stay was pretty good. The location was in the middle of everything with access to the beach only a few feet away from my balcony which overlooked the pool and beach. My only complaint is the hallways to get to the rooms were not so clean and contact with maintenance was not very pleasant. Other than that my stay was very good. I would suggest it to others.

    Condo unit 405 met all my expectations for a wonderful vacation right on the beach. The condo was super clean with recent modern upgrades in all room. Like being at home away from home. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The group mds were emaculant, private acces to the beach and security all around. I can’t wait to go back in 2019 and add a few days to my stay. Thank you Islander for a wonderful stay.

    This is our second time we stayed at The Islander. The apartment was a welcoming, roomy, and comfortable experience. Each bedroom has a TV, (a must for teenagers), plenty of closet space and very comfortable beds. The bed in the master bedroom is heavenly! The kitchen is well equipped with dishes, utensils and appliances for your entertaining needs. A grocery store is located about one mile away and there are a variety of restaurants to choose from along the strip. The Islander staff, although busy at times are very helpful and polite. The guests are polite and respectful with noise levels as well. The beach , conventiently close is wonderful. Alan, is very accomodating and a definite treasure for The Islander! The two pool areas are clean and very well maintained. The Islander is a secured area to protect both yourselves and your possesions. I would highly recommend staying here to anyone! Thank you Islander for making our vacation a success!
