Our party of 10 people rented two condos in this building. These condos are very spacious and the view across Clearwater is stunning. Unfortunately our vacation was truly spoiled by the horrendous drilling noises from the pile driving of a retaining wall right in front of the building, which continued the whole day. Both owners claimed to be surprised by this renovation work during our week, which seems very doubtful given the fact that we were the only occupants in the building. The other owners were clearly better informed. The only elevator was out of action on four of our seven days of our stay, which is particularly awkward for the elderly people in our party. We have rented previously condos in this building and also then the elevator was out of action on a number of days. Had we known we had to endure all this, we would obviously have rented somewhere else. The owners decided to reimburse us 3 days, but the decent thing would have been to reimburse us in full for a spoiled vacation.
This condo had a superb large screen HD TV and Wifi is superfast, contrary to the top floor condo where the TV is ready for replacement and where Wifi is irritatingly slow. Prior to our vacation we were advised that the pool was under repair. Anyway the pool is smallish and cold being in the shade of the building.
Our advice to prospective tenants is to ensure that no repair work is being planned during their stay. Given the reliability of the only elevator one should opt for a condo on a lower floor unless climbing stairs is not a problem. If swimming is important one should rent elsewhere.
