"Beautiful Home - The home was beautiful, and the personnel that were working on the property were very nice and personable. The only downside that I saw with this unit was the water heater did not last long at all, which was a shame because the walk in showers looked amazing, and the refrigerator took almost 3 days to freeze and ice pack for my cooler. Other than that the unit was absolutely amazing and the property was beautiful and kid friendly. We would definitely recommend these rentals to family and friends and will certainly be back."

"Nice place. Close to the awesome community pool. We were able to walk to the beach from here. The only thing we didn’t like was that we either couldn’t figure out how to lock the restrooms or they didn’t have locks on the doors. I would stay here again."

"BEAUTIFUL - This property was fantastic! The only thing I would recommend is replacing the mattresses... pillow tops wear over time and cause undue aches as they wear and also investing in a larger hot water tank... 3 minutes of hot water is not enough to shower with!! Great location, prompt service and very clean place!!"

"Awesome place with a great pool... location perfect - Place was awesome and beautiful! Just a few down sides... the icemaker didn't produce ice, none of the bedrooms had locks on them, and the master with the jacuzzi tub would start up once or twice a day by itself. Loved location, pool was great.... the pool attendant will get on to you if your in the pool with any drinks..
.. lol but location was great!!"

It’s a really nice house located in a very nice neighborhood. We can’t wait to come back in summer 2021. I would suggest they check on the water pressure in the toilet upstairs though, it’s kind of low."

"Great place to relax-close to everything! - We loved staying at the Tahitian Paradise. It is beautiful. Everything was clean when we arrived and just as pictured . The location is great because it is close to everything. About an 8 minute walk to the beach and shopping and restaurants all around the community.
The kitchen could use a hand mixer and another kitchen towel ( there was only 1). Also, the upstairs bedrooms need a little more light. Bathrooms had plenty of towels and washcloths. We felt safe in the community and enjoyed using the hot tub. We would recommend to others!"

"Very comfortable living - This property looks just like the pics. Loved all of the luxury details such as soft close cabinets throughout, upgraded tile work, the carpet and finishes on everything. The location is quiet and everyone was friendly. It is a trek to the beach and you have to call the trolley service a day in advance, it's a separate company. We did walk which wasn't too bad, less than a mile. It's only a block from the shopping and the Whole Foods market too. It comes with a grill which is really opened up our food options! It was very clean and had the essentials in terms of kitchen equipment. WiFi worked great, Awesome pool area... we will definitely be back!"

"Great house - Great house and neighborhood. Felt very safe. Kids rode their bikes around neighborhood everyday. Nice pool. Close enough to beach to walk but trolley or driving were a better option for us. Had an issue with ice maker not working and they got someone out the next day to look at it but it couldn't be fixed during our stay. Kitchen was fairly well equipped but could use a cutting board. These minor issues certainly don't take away from the great house and location. "
