Great, Spacious Stay

My family and loved the space. Comfortable, great view, and amenities. The walk in pool is great if you have little kids. This room is right by an elevator which means you only share one wall with a neighbor and while it is not loud you can hear it but didn’t affect our stay.

Shrimp Festival Stay

Beautiful location and property! This unit needs repairs and updating. The bedding wasn’t appropriate for a rental. Very heavy comforters and uncomfortable pillows. Not enough towels, and no hand towels. Just needs a refresh.

Family trip

The location and layout of the unit were great. The carpet in the bedrooms was filthy and worn. Cockroaches in one of the bathrooms. Not sure I’d ever rent this unit again, even if they remove/replace carpets.

Construction Nightmare

Construction workers right outside our patio. Grinding the walls and pressure washing. Could only set out side once they left in evenings. Vacasa should have provide a heads up to the major construction going on. Furniture is worn, lots of silverware but only a few regular size forks and spoons, also a huge master bath with smallest shower ever seen.

We liked the location of the condo in the 2nd floor. You can park your car 20 ft from the door. On floor down to the entrance to the beach area and heated pool. Also, the spacious layout is great.

Very worn furniture

We stayed here this year with a friend this time and the furniture is so worn out and uncomfortable. Also the carpet looks very dirty and is pulling up in some places. It really just needs an overhaul. I can tell when it was first done I know it was beautiful but not know. The mattress could also used replacing. The view was beautiful the weather was very chilly in November. I really wish they would put comfortable furniture in these condos we come to relax and there’s not one chair there that is comfortable.

good, bad & ugly

Overall everything was very GOOD and we would stay there again. But there were three significant bad and ugly. 1. No wash cloths, few hand towels. However, they were quickly delivered when we reported it. 2. The website tells about two parking passes and $40. But it doesn't say $40 apiece. Also, I was told that I would have to find parking elsewhere for the third car. They didn't help me determine where I could find parking off site and it cost me $75. When we arrived the HOA said that since it was off-season we could get a third pass from them! This lack of communication cost me an extra $35 and a lot of inconvenience. This was BAD for me. The website could provide a way to contact the HOA directly with an awareness that during some of the year more than two passes might be possible. 3. Overall the condo was very clean EXCEPT for the UGLY carpet as one entered each bedroom. All six of us found that after a short time in the condo the bottoms of our feet, or our socks, were BLACK. This indicates that some or all of the floors/carpets were not clean and had not been cleaned in a long time. 3.

The location was close to everything and the condo was close to the beach and parking. The furniture is dated a little as are the bathrooms but overall would stay here again.

Ocean front property

This place was perfect for our family of 4, everyone had their own space at the end of the day. The beach chairs, sand toys, and detergent were a HUGE plus to this rental. I would only suggest having a few extra blankets for hanging out on the patio at night.
