Shell Island Adults Only Vacations

Ocean view

This was a great house in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. The beach is within an easy walk and was great. The pool was freezing cold when we got there and the hot water in the master bath had no pressure so that shower was unusable. The management rep was great and did figure out how to get the heater on in the pool. It was the perfect house for what we needed.

This was a very nice apartment for rent.”The Landing” is a company who rents apartments from a complex and furnishes the apartments to rent out for one night or for a month or more. Everything was spot on! Some places you rent for short term, they ask you to wash your bedding etc before leaving. None of that! It’s a very quiet community, dog park, pool. However, you cannot get help from the apartment complex with your codes etc. It’s a sublet apartment. Codes and wifi you must contact “The Landing” and not Expedia or the “Arcadia apartment office” When you check in to the Landing online, they will take you through everything. Thankfully I did screenshot each page I checked because I was never able to access their app that they ask you to download and use. You need to save the key code for the front door that you are given. Save it because everytime you need to go in the building, you must use. Then you will have a code for your apartment door. The door has a “smart door lock”. We had never seen one of these. We were totally stumped at first. They don’t explain it. It’s an all black door knob and all you need to do is touch the knob and it will light up with white numbers like a clock and you punch in the code to the apartment. You do need to turn the deadbolt away from the door jam to unlock. When you leave, make sure you deadbolt the door.

The bathroom floor flooded when taking a shower. That wasn't a good thing.

Everything was close by but not what the booking described. There should have been warnings on the booking that there is only 1 roll of toilet paper provided, 1 towel/washcloth per day…so if you go to the beach, you have kids that get dirty then you better bring your own or go buy more. The neighbor next door actually lives there but doesn’t want ANY noise made or anything placed outside that she can see…she shouldn’t live there if she doesn’t like vacationers who may accidentally drop the stupid uncomfortable bed that is ridiculous.
