Anniversary Trip
We enjoyed our stay. I tried to reach the property manager several times because I had a grant due and needed to use the internet. They never returned call. But we loved the proximity to the water. Would stay again.

Immediately upon entering we noticed a stong musty smell (beyond the normal ocean side smell) we also noticed the linens had hairs in them. Also toilet seat had hairs on it ans appeared it hadnt been cleaned. There were even hairs on the stove top and inside the fridge. We took pictures of everything and sent to property manager Immediately requesting a call back but only recieved messages. It was not until my wife had made a post on a local facebook page that an employee of the management company saw, that we recieved a call about our concerns. She was VERY helpful and We were refunded cleaning services fee and also was comped a dinner. One other issue we had was the beach service that was included. It was not clear who our beach service was with cause no chairs were setup for our building. Turns out they are with island princess next door. This was not made clear in the listing. Over all our issues got addressed but I would not stay at this particular location again.

Overall a great experience
We enjoyed the property, although a little out dated. I would suggest adding a blanket to be used with the pull out couch. We had a great time and would rent again!
We had a wonderful time at Tiki Beach 31. The location was perfect for us...just a few steps from the beach!
