Had a great time!

We loved the view!!! It was so wonderful to hear the waves at night! The home provided room enough for all of our family to each have a separate bed! The room on the balcony was excellent! Got to see the sun come up over the water and when it was too hot on the back balcony we could use the side to get out of the sun and still enjoy the view of the beach and water! Highly recommend this property!

Siblings Reunion with a Fantastic View

This was our family's third year staying here. Such an enjoyable location. We appreciated repairs and improvements from 2023, especially the new refrigerator with working ice maker and new washable covering for the large table. TV options were confusing, no basic cable, streaming service icons were there but none seemed to be freely available. We'd recommend that guests bring their own Roku or AppleTV with cable to use their own streaming accounts. Or forget television and just enjoy the moonrise and ocean view.

Beautiful space, remarkable views

Roomy accommodations for large family, as advertised. Kitchen included drip coffee maker, utensils fry pans, pots, casserole dishes and skillets Could use some non slip bathroom rugs, vertical blinds repair in bedrooms. Cable and DVD were fine, for streaming we brought a Roku and html cable that we swapped into the single html port available on wall mounted tv. Thanks to owner. We hope to return!

Great location, needs work

Pros: Location, views, kitchen, spacious living room area Cons: No fans worked (needed batteries), some lights didn't work (same issue), one of the beds was broken so it sloped in the middle, hard to get into the actual apartment, wifi password was incorrect in rental information (lacking of rental info), rental agency model was hit/miss as to getting answers With all that said, these are issues you can live with for a rental for a few days, depending on the cost (we were off season).

Fading Beauty

We have stayed in this lovely 5-bedroom condo for 5 years now, always in late August. This year the condo was clean, but several pieces of furniture were broken and the kitchen equipment was either missing or in terrible condition. I realize it was nearing the end of the season, but the chairs in the dining room were stained and wobbly and the outdoor furniture was in poor condition. It is such a gorgeous condo and we love the location. Needs a little TLC.

Family Beach Week

This property lived up to its billing. Fantastic beach views, room for all the family with comfortable beds and large community space. Property is half mile from high rises, making this beach must less populated, even though it is walking distance to most anything you want to do. Plenty of street parking if you have more than two parties meeting there. It is a beach venue, but I showed up on Father's day weekend and Golf's US open. The TV's must have been purchased in 2007 when the unit was built, it was smallish and not 4K. Bedroom TV's are useless. For a multi-million dollar property, it was the only item out of place.

Shark Finn

we enjoyed our stay. The place was beautiful but WiFi didn’t work and we could figure out the lights/fans. They were remote based and the remotes were missing or didn’t have batteries / didn’t have backs. Check in was annoying since we had to stop and pick up parking passes, which didn’t even have the right information on them - and nobody called to clarify where we should park after we reached out. I won’t ever use Vacasa due to the outrageous VRBO fee that was completely unjustified (also won’t ever use VRBO again)

Mis-management by Vacasa - AGAIN

We decided to give a VACASA managed property a second chance after a horrendous experience in Hilton Head.(link) The same theme appears to have surfaced again with VACASA- they don't have respect for the vacation time of the renter. This time, a text informing us of a sprinkler inspection at 8am on Monday, our first full day of vacation was sent. Does VACASA think this is appropriate not only to tell the renter that someone has to interrupt their time on vacation for routine checks that could be done at another time but make it at 8am? This is the definition of poor customer service!!!!!!!! Then when we called the office to tell them we never got our response to rescheduling this to some other time, the person responding did not know what we were talking about. Then they came anyway while some of us were in the shower. UNBELIEVABLE!!! We would love to interrupt them on the first day of their vacation at 8am!! The property itself was nicely decorated, but the infrastructure did show its age and poor pest control was apparent. The air conditioner was a real problem. Although it did keep the condo cool, it made a terrible sound like an airplane engine, drowning out our conversations and the TV. Additionally, the condo did have ants in the laundry room and bedrooms. Nothing like having them crawl on you while you sleep and clean your clothing!! The location was excellent as it was away from the downtown traffic. If Vacasa did not manage or mis-manage this condo and

Disappointed

The condo did not appear to have been occupied for quite some time. Very musty smell. Or importantly, the kitchen was essentially non-functional. No running water, refrigerator was broken, not functioning, microwave, taped shut with duct tape. Curtains in the master bedroom, multiple pieces down/broken. This allowed for a very bright sunshine early in the morning when we would’ve preferred darkness. Entry door lock did not work. I had to call management to get a new code took a while. There were some substitute dorm style refrigerators that couldn’t hold drinks only. And they substitute microwave on the counter. All of these issues appear to be problems for quite some time. This condo has not been kept up. Very unfortunate. Did not allow for us to cook meals in the condo.

very spacious

Very spacious. Beautiful views! some of the furniture was broken and lights in showers were out and we replaced. They had 6 coffee pots, 4 were broken. We swamped out crafts and lids to make a complete set. the previous renters left potatoes in the back cabinet, thank goodness we found and disposed of. Over all, a very nice unit. perfect for a large family!

Lots of space!

This is a beautiful place, with tons of room, right on the beach. The only thing to be aware of is that one bedroom has French doors, with only thin curtains. It's set up as a kids' room, but kids need privacy too. And one bedroom has no windows. Otherwise, this is pretty perfect!

Easter Family getaway

This was such a nice property to spend a long weekend with family. Spacious and views that didn't disappoint. Enough room for everyone, sheets on all the beds and towels provided that was a nice surprise. Great kitchen and large table so everyone could enjoy a meal together. And so nice to sleep with the sound of the waves. Definitely will rent again in the future.
