We liked the property and the location. We were not expecting to have a mini fridge. The mini fridge limited what we could keep in the room. The beach was quiet. Still lots of devastation from the hurricane. We visited shops and some had been open just a couple of months. We did enjoy our trip. If you visit this area try to support these shops and businesses.

Lovely place

I loved being at the Cabana Beach club....it was just me and it was absolutely perfect. A very short walk to the beach and only a .5 mile walk to Harry's corner store for necessities. The unit was very nice and very clean. The ceiling fans could use a dusting but truly, it was a lovely place to stay.

Great location uncomfortable

The unit has an excellent location and the owner communicated very efficiently at first until I messaged re:sand inside the pull out couch on arrival, then I received no response. The unit was fairly clean overall but there was sand around the couch and inside of it. The pull out mattress had a sheet on it covered in sand. The living furniture needs to be replaced , the couch sinks down on one side and the chair is old with dark stained arms and leans forward. The bed itself was comfortable but has a plastic cover on it and had 4 sheets which slid around all night. The unit is older which is fine but needs updated badly. The TVs were nice ..The mops buckets etc are left in the patio by the doorway which looks trashy. The heating/ac is located in the bedroom so If you shut the bedroom door there is a drastic difference in temperature in the living area. I was a bit disappointed in the unit but it does sit steps from one of the best beaches in Florida

Mixed feelings

Cleanliness is so important. Black mold on the shower floor and loose moldy tiles! No bathroom fan and when you open the window in the shower to vent, the exterior window/screens are filthy. No hair dryer. Living room chair has worn dirty, gross, arm rests, and is broken/tips forward. Porch is dirty in the corners, dirty fan and a filthy 5 gallon bucket, with gross plastic mats and dirty broom/mop in the corner to look at while you have your morning coffee. Old, flat pillows, packaging and an old tv in the closet. Throw that stuff out! Small bed had cheap sweaty bedding and a plastic mattress cover. Oversized top sheet & old, heavy, miss-matched blanket with extra sheet to hide it slid around, came undone and made sleep difficult. King sized pillows had no pillow cases! A/C is in the bedroom ONLY. Check in is confusing, you have to go to a separate location two miles away to pick up a paper packet that’s unnecessary. Inconvenient if you take an Uber. BUT the porch right across from the lovely heated pool was fantastic. And the walk to the beach is amazing. The BEACH! Location is fantastic. The landscaping is unprofessional with dead stuff remaining, and weird exposed soaker hoses on several gardens. Beautiful large coconut trees. Nice beach chairs. Free laundry with new washer/dryer. Very private feel to the beach and resort. A good place if you don’t need sleep or be clean.

Understanding , kindness ???

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Due to medical reason, that appear 2 days before ( hospitalization) my reservation I had to cancel, it was easy with the rental for the car, easy for my plane ticket, even with the hotel that I had for the night before my reservation at Cabana Beach, but even with a note from the doctor, I could received a remboursement from RVA...So very disappointed by the lack of understanding , comprehension, or open mind from RVA. I am a regular visitor at Cabana beach( from the last 15 year), I loved this place, but I use to rent directly with a owner.

The sandy walk to the ocean is perfect. Check in and out couldn't have been easier, and RVA staff responded quickly when needed for a minor problem.

The pool was disgusting, dirt and debris on the bottom and top so that was disappointing, while watching TV and sleeping a person actually opened up our porch door then the main door and just walked in and said they had booked the same room and had keys, what kind of place does not keep track of that and I'm not sure what the person was thinking the TV was on and it was up a little so I know they heard it from the outside but to get back to that place for allowing that to happen. He's lucky I didn't have my firearm with me. It would not have ended as good as it did. I did not recommend this place they will ruin your vacation .
