I know The Seven Eagles condos at Reunion very well as we’ve been owners of a condo and then a house (recently sold) at Reunion since 2007.
Seven Eagles is a 1 min walk to the gym and pool at the Cove and a 3 min walk to The Grande. Probably the best position in Reunion.
The condo is south facing and the balcony and lanai has a degree of privacy and nice view of some shrubbery.
I booked it because of the location and sunny rear. I was aware that is right next to Old Lake Wilson road, which has a lot of traffic on it.
Sitting outside, you hear the roar of the traffic which is 25 feet away.
If you booked unaware of this, you could be in for a nasty surprise.
I think the great price reflects the above and we saw the location and southern exposure as balancing out the traffic noise.
On the upside, the condo looks like it’s brand new inside. It’s been totally refurbished. The bedding, sitting room and kitchen are fab. The washer/dryers are brand new.
However, the fridge, which also looks new, cools only slightly below room temperature even on max chill. We had to put our drinks (sodas, water and wine) in the freezer before they were cold enough for an enjoyably drink. Our fruit went off pretty quickly too.
We reported this to the management company who eventually sent someone out to verify and left a message that they’d get a tech out to fix it.
No one showed up and no one responded to 3 texts sent to them.
So, I popped in to see them in person. They are very close by.
They apologized, said they’d take a look and fix it but we never heard from them again.
It wasn’t a deal breaker but a properly functioning fridge is important in hot Florida.
Also, don’t expect the Wi-Fi signal to stretch to the upstairs balcony. It’s pretty poor in the upstairs living room too. We switched to our phone data plans.
All in, we can see the owners have recently refurbished it to be as new. We suggest they upgrade the fridge or get it fixed and get the Wi-Fi signal boosted in the upstairs and they’d have 5*’s from us.
