The mice almost had a good time.

This was our second trip to the Sea Colony facility. Same building different unit. Our first night while watching TV we noticed a large mouse watching the TV with us. We startled it and it proceeded to crawl into the pull out bed in the living room. We took it apart as much as we could but to no avail. Next day we called Vacasa as the security people advised and received no reply. Went to the local store, purchased mouse traps and peanut butter. The results were excellent two traps two mice. Next day rinse and repeat. Furniture in this unit is shot. Beds are as hard as the floor. Carpet is rough and most lights in the unit either are out or just don't work. BYOTV. Tiny sets and limited controllers. The unit is centrally located and despite all of the negatives my family overlooked them and had a good time. I'm blessed to be around so many great family members.

A subpar stay

The dishwasher wouldn't work, which we reported promptly after arriving. We were told someone would come fix it, but no one did. The master bedroom window blinds don't shut/pull down, so there was a lack of privacy. Also reported with no follow up taken. Cleanliness was lacking, as it was severely dusty most places. We did enjoy the beach front location and access to indoor swimming. Not impressed with the automated system and policies that failed to address any of our concerns during our stay.

Short Stay

We had only booked this condo for a weekend and we are glad it was not longer than that. The condo is worn, dirty and does not have the basics for a stay with 6 people which is less than the listing posts for accommodations. There was dust and dirt on faux plants, the top of the refridgerator and ceiling fans. The beds are old and mattresses are very worn. The kitchen is not stocked with drinkware or utensils and the cabinet door was broken. The shower and tub were clean on surface, but the deeper dirt was embedded in them.

Great amenities

The Sea Colony area is lovely. The amenities and fitness center are wonderful, and access to the beach and the beautiful swimming pools are top notch. But the condo we rented was very old, outdated and the appliances barely working. Unfortunately the dish washer was broken as well as one of the ceiling fans and televisions in one of the bedrooms. Also the mattresses were very old, lumpy and uncomfortable. If I rent in Sea Colony again, it would be a different unit. Thanks for the opportunity to comment.

810 Harbour House

The only thing nice about this property was that it was right on the beach with a great view. The place was dirty and had leftover toys and other items from previous renters. There was a broken broom to use to clean the floor so sand got everywhere. The kitchen had hardly any utensils to use to cook. The can opener is rusty. There are storage lockers where you park but the owners don’t let you use them so there was no place to store beach chairs, umbrella, wagon, and toys. The mattresses are all uncomfortable. I also feel like it would be hard to have 8 adults stay here. Not a lot of room. We had 6 adults, 2 toddlers, and 1 baby and felt like there was no room. The place is also cluttered with the owners stuff. The closets are all full of junk. Everything about sea colony was really great! We enjoyed the pools and splash pad area for the kids. You only get two parking passes which is the only down fall of sea colony.

Good location but run down place

We stayed for 2 1/2 days at this location. The proximity to the beach as well as accessibility to the pools was the best part of this vacation. The apartment in itself had many aspects that were not desirable. The kitchen also was not clean, the drawers were not well supplied, floors had gum on them, the bedskirt was ripped, the shower curtain was falling off the railing, floor mats were ripped, things were just thrown into the bedroom wardrobe's, overall it just did not have a good well taken care of healing.

Stay here as a last resort

If you want waterfront and nothing else is available, then this place will do. TV didn't work and Vacasa never responded to our calls for assistance, Furniture is functional, but outdated and some is worn. Dishes don't match and some were dirty. Balcony furniture is rusted and balcony rug is stained and desperately in need of vacuuming. One gets the sense someone is making a lot of money off the rentals but not putting any of it back into the unit. But views of the ocean and the sounds of the waves are fantastic.

Sea colony

We loved The view and sound of the ocean from the patio and as we slept. We really disliked the dirty, dilapidated living room furniture and the old, dirty bedspreads and blankets. Wine glasses needed in the kitchen. This condo and bathrooms are badly in need of updating. We will return to Sea Colony but in an updated condo

Ocean views made it worthwhile!

Began searching in May 2021 for an oceanfront rental in August for me, my kids, parents, sister and niece. This was a tough find during Covid… this condo was literally all we could find. It ended up being quite expensive, especially after factoring in the $45/person resort fee that was collected by the resort itself after we made the booking. However we were very happy with the condo and the resort. The unit was clean, the AC was comfortable and the views from the balcony were beautiful! The unit could do with some refreshing: the mattresses in the master and 2nd bedroom were SO NOISY and the master mattress had a terrible dip in the middle. Closets were full of a collection of pillows and extra blankets that were thrown in there- total mess… we used one blanket on the pullout couch only to find it full of sand. The door to the balcony was extremely difficult to open- I.e. it took all your body weight and two hands to tug it open and closed. Also the toaster malfunctioned and almost caught fire because it didn’t auto-turnoff. Bring your own dischclothes and towels, none provided. There was also a really nasty black mold situation going on in the 2nd bathroom at the base of the shower stall. And the lid to that toilet was missing! I’m listing lots of things that could be improved with just alittle attention from the owners or Vacasa. Overall as I said my family truly enjoyed our stay.

Great view from the balcony

The ocean was right there! Great view from the balcony and the beach was very nice…big, clean and pretty easy to access. The place is in desperate need of an update and regular maintenance-especially for the cost.

Great location - put some rental $$ back in to the property!

The location can’t be beat - amazing views, easy beach access, amenities, parking… The issues come within the unit. The mattresses are very old and box springs creak mercilessly anytime an occupant moves. The carpet inside and on the porch must go - it triggered a major allergy event. These two basic updates are not an unreasonable ask, and the onus is on property owners and management to maintain a healthy and comfortable environment for guests. With a a little investment, this property could be a gem.

Too expensive for what you get...

The view was spectacular and location was great for families with children. HOWEVER, my main complaint is that the property needs to be updated. Every single bed in the property squeaks so much that it is impossible to get a good nights sleep. Seriously, every time you move, you wake yourself up. Bring your own pillows. They smell bad! Also, it's time to get some new living room furniture. It should be thrown out it was so bad. I wouldn't even sit on it without a towel. Again, great location, but I wouldn't do it again for the price. For that I amount I expect a good nights sleep and clean furniture to sit on.

Good condo

This was a nice condo. I would stay here again, but there were some minor issues with the place -- the toilet kept running, the place could have been cleaner, and there was a gross ball of hair stuck to the wall near one of the beds. It was fine for 2 nights, but I would recommend a thorough cleaning and a maintenance check.

Nice time at the beach

Location was great and private beach a huge plus. The unit we stayed in was nice overall. The mattress in the queen master was terrible. Very squeaky and old. Definitely time to get another mattress. For the price we paid to stay on the beach night time sleeping wasn't very good.

Sea Colony Condo

The property is older and not luxurious. However, the beach was very nice. Our individual unit was dated, cluttered and a bit grimy. The beds were so bad, the noise from the springs kept us all awake half the night, every night. Also, the A/C broke our first night. The Mgmnt got it fixed fairly quickly.
