Great location, community, amenities!

Loved Sea Colony community! We will definitely come back here for vacation. This unit was a little dated and could be a little cleaner, but the vacation was otherwise great.

Dated, needs multiple repairs, bring broom for tile floors and sand.

View! Sliding doors were solid. Pleasant enough for our family gathering but not sparkling.

Fantastic views!

We have stayed at several condos in Sea Colony. The views from this condo, north and east views of the beach, are by far the best. We would like to come back to this condo.

Great location

This condo is comfortable and the view cannot be beat. The furnishings are somewhat outdated, but it was clean. I think some of the other reviews were a little overly negative. It’s a comfortable condo and a great location. If you want very up-to-date furnishings. This might not be the condo for you, but we enjoyed our time there a lot

It was so so....

The Sea Colony complex has great amenities, but this unit is not well maintained. Find a different unit.

Great location and view; unit, not so much

Location and view of ocean unbeatable, but unit is old and needed updating. Air conditioner broke and couldn’t be repaired. 2 back room had a strange strong odor. 2 of 4 burners on stove worked. Toaster oven tempermental. Very basic kitchen equipment. Bathroom old. But the price was right. Wouldn’t have paid a penny more.

Terrible Experience

When we arrived the unit was dirty, with sand in the sheets, hair in the bathroom and candy wrappers and pink feathers under the beds. The dishwasher and washer did not work well all week. The worst was that from the start the AC unit did not work and was not fixed all week, management should have contacted us before arrival. It was a very hot week and some of us camped out in our other unit 2 floors down. There are also drawers that are missing in the kitchen and cabinets that would not stay shut. We have rented at Sea Colony for many many years and this was the worse experience.

Worn out

When we got into our room at 5:30, the room was a mess. Dirty. Food laying on the counter. Trash bags on the floor. Beds with used sheets and undone. That was eventually cleaned and the room was usable. However, there were wholes in the ceiling. Light fixtures falling from the ceiling (because it was taped up). The furniture was worn out and filthy. We had to put sheets over the couches because they were that dirty. The place was more than just dated. It was a mess for the amount of money that it cost. The layout of the room was good and the view was awesome. The grounds at Sea Colony are very well maintained. This unit however was very poorly maintained.

Great View comes with Deferred Maintenance

Spectacular views, but the deferred maintenance and mishmash of décor and furnishings make it impossible for a spectacular review. The good; the views of the ocean and the amenities of Sea Colony is what made our vacation a good one. The washer, dryer, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator were all in good working order. The bad is the deferred maintenance of the condo. It is so glaringly in contrast of how well the Sea Colony complex itself is being maintained. The condo has closet doors off the tracks in the blue secondary bedroom, a difficult to use tub faucet in the hall bath and for the sink in the half bath, a missing cover on the non-working bath fan and missing hand rail in the main bathroom, the loose and damaged ceiling tiles in the kitchen and baths, the dirty air returns throughout, the missing kitchen drawer, the hanging lamp over the small table is broken and stuffed on top of the hutch, dirty windows throughout, wall sconces that don’t produce more light than a nightlight in the hall, broken drawers in the main bedroom dresser, dirty grout on all the floor tile, and the broken backing on the stove where the nobs are. The ugly: the lack of storage for visitors belongings, the outdated paint colors, too much furniture compounded by a poor layout of the furniture, in the kitchen there were not enough pots to cook with, or drinking glasses that didn't come from a restaurant. We will return to Sea Colony, not this condo. I'm out of characters to finish the review

Comfortable and great location

Terrific location with a corner balcony. Very convenient to the pool and beach. This is a spacious condo with plenty of beds (comfortable mattresses) and a nice living room/dining area. The kitchen was adequately stocked with pots & pans for basic cooking; be sure to bring your own spices, plastic wrap/foil etc. Note that the bathrooms were looking a little old and worn but very functional. You may want to bring a small fan for the bedrooms at night - esp the master bdr because that room was warmer than the other rooms despite using the a/c.
