Walk up
Check-in great. Elevator out! 80 year old carrying luggage up two flights of stairs was no fun. Disposal was jammed with a chunk of plastic. Risked my hand to clear. Door to HVAC has months of dust on lt..Recliner on lanai broken. Entire place is in need of update. Location is great. Views are great. Pool closed!

Nice Place would return, even though the pool is not handicapped accessible...
Nice place, great view of the ocean! Glad there was a working elevator. One thing they don't mention is that the pool area is not handicapped accessible, and there are quite a few stairs to walk up to get there, they are fairly steep on the way down and there is no handrail.

Very good stay
The stay was very good. I just wished that the parking passes were made to hang from the mirrors inside your vehicle, so that you don't have to move it when you drive your car, and because you may forget to put it back on the dash and end up with a $250. towing fee. Other than that, it was very nice. Thank You.

Beach condo
The condo was certainly as expected. Great views. It’s a bit of a walk down to the beach but manageable. It would be much easier to bypass the rental company for the pool key and car passes since there is a door code. I would suggest leaving them at the condo. We love this beach so we will definitely be back and would recommend. Thanks for having us!!

Perfect location
I loved the location of this unit. The elevator was very helpful for luggage and groceries throughout the week. You can’t beat the view from the deck. My only issue was how soft the mattress is. If you have any spine issues this will be a problem. I ended up sleeping on the deck in the very comfortable lounge chair 4 of the nights under star lit skies listening to the surf.

Wonderful ocean front condo
This is a great property. Right on the beach. We spent a lot of time on the deck. We had surfers to entertain us and Thursday, live music from the Tiki Hut just down the beach. The bathroom was small, sheets and towels poor quality. My biggest problem with Vrbo is that the”average rate” advertised, was considerably less than the actual rate. Final rate after all the extra fees was more than twice what was advertised. That said, we had a great time.

great beach view
Excellent overall. Needed elevator. Kitchen well stocked. Cleanliness got a lower mark because the cleaning service forgot to run the dishwasher before putting away all the dishes and silverware, so I had to wash everything upon arrival. the property management company apologized profusely. Otherwise great and we would stay there again. Bring your own sheets; the ones on the bed were very low quality.

Lovely, clean, oceanfront condo
This condo is very clean and looks to be well cared for. The bedroom is on the parking lot side. It’s an end unit, so no problems with people walking back and forth. The bed coverings and curtains were very bright and fresh. There’s a dresser and two nightstands, plus a closet, so storage is plentiful. The full bath opens to the hallway, as well as to the bedroom. That’s nice, because you can close the hall door and keep the other door open. This helps keep the bathroom from getting steamy while you shower. The drain in the tub was very slow, but I imagine it’s hard to keep it running clear with all the sand, oil, etc. The kitchen is modern and well-appointed. The dining/living area is spacious and comfortable, and the furnishings look new. There’s a large, flat screen TV. The homeowner even provides a selection of DVDs, although we did not take advantage of that. The covered balcony is a nice size. There’s a pub style table with four chairs that looks brand new. There’s also one cushioned lounge chair. Note: The balcony is covered, but leaks quite a bit in the rain, so whatever is out there will get wet. That’s not a big deal, just something to be aware of. The sliding door was almost impossible for me to open and close, but I think that’s just a consequence of living at the beach. Salt air is corrosive. This unit is perfect for a couple, or a couple with one or two young kids. As for the Sea Colony overall, we were very pleased. The building is well lit, and each condo has an outdoor light at the entrance. The pool is nice, very clean with lots of lounge chairs. It is fenced and accessed by key. Be sure to have your pool key with you when you go to the beach, because the outdoor shower is located within the locked pool area. Should you forget, there are hoses at various places in the parking area you can use to rinse your feet. Lastly, there’s an elevator! That’s a must for getting your luggage, gear, and groceries upstairs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We look forward to coming back and would recommend it to anyone.
