Would not recommend.
When we first got to the condo, we were really surprised with how cute it was But after a few hours, things started to go downhill. That evening, when I was cleaning up after dinner, I saw several roaches on the countertops and on the floor. I thought maybe it was a one time thing so we killed them and went to bed. One of the girls woke up to get some water at night and they were all over the kitchen. I texted for someone to come remedy this situation and a guy came pretty quickly. He sprayed for the roaches and also fixed a fan in one of the bedrooms that was broken. They were good for about 24 hours but the next night they were out again. I texted the same number and they said they would Let the correct people know but we never heard back from them. Also that same night the AC got up to 80° and I texted several times and they told me they were waiting on a response from management. They never got back to us and we had to sleep in that 80° I would’ve recommended this place, but it all went downhill very fast and even though the first time we had a problem, they were quick to respond after that we just seem to get the runaround. Make sure you read the description and if somebody says they believe it because it was true in this case.

Worst place ever
You can't sit on the couch because it is so broken down. You have to leave the unit if you use the dryer because it is so loud. The handle fell off of the oven. The stains on the carpets were gross and the last straw were the cockroaches. It was truely horrible.

It was a very nice stay!!! My family will definitely stay at this location again. Had a nice little peakaboo view of the water. We also could see the fireworks from the balcony. It was quiet and the pool was always nice and clean. It was a a very short little walk to the beach. They did have beach items to use. Included in that was an umbrella. That was a nice find. The stay was really almost perfect. There were just a few cons... We couldn't adjust the thermostat so the temperature was a little warmer than I liked, but not a deal breaker. The back door did not close unless it was locked, so we rigged it to hold shut with a towel while outside. Also, I wish they had left additional paper towels, toilet paper and trash bags. A family of 4 needs at least 2 tp rolls per bathroom, 3 trash bags for the kitchen and 2 paper towels for a weeks stay. The front door handle was loose and super rusted. But there was a double lock so we felt safe. Again none of the above would be a deal breaker. We loved it!

Cleanliness was an issue
The master bedroom shower had hair on the shower walls as wells as the shower drain. The sink also had hair in it. The couch in the living room had a lot if old stains as well. These things made me question how much cleaning was actually done in between guests. This could be greatly improved in my opinion.

Almost perfect
The listing details for the property were spot on and the location and distance to the beach was fantastic. The only issues we had were: 1) water was shut down for 5 hours due to construction issue. Not the property fault but still a bit of a hassle 2) the kitchen was beautiful but there needs to be a step stool provided for short visitors. Anyone under 5’3 will have a hard time reaching some of the cabinet contents. 3) the lockbox was corroded so opening it was a bit cumbersome, and were unable to relook the keys back in it at the end of the stay. Notified vacasa who also seemed confused as to what to do 4) the listing and confirmation did not expressly state that there was assigned parking per condo. We arrived at night and the parking spots are not distinctly marked. The next morning a long term resident advised us that we need to move or risk being towed. Other then those issues, it was a great stay. Laundry in condo was great and helpful when drying swimsuits and towels. Pool was also a great addition to help during peak beach hours to avoid the crowds but still get sun.

Super clean property
The check in was a little confusing since the instructions say there's an electronic entry keypad, but there isn't. Would suggest clarifying that with property management. When I tried to call, they were not answering. Eventually we figured out the code for a manual lock box. Once inside, the condo is perfect. Super clean, plenty of pillows and towels. I appreciate the individual pot scrubbers and dish soap and bath soap and shampoo - very hotel like for being sanitary. Plenty of kitchen utensils and pots and dishes to use if needed. Wish there was some coffee or a Keurig on the property, but no big deal. Would definitely stay here again.

We love the property location. It’s an easy walk to the beach. Kids took advantage of the pool. We didn’t watch TV so can’t comment on that amenity. WiFi instructions were lacking but we figured it out. We have one very major complaint. The dishwasher in this unit does not work properly. The entire unit is loose and when you open the door the entire dishwasher falls forward. We washed same dishes twice and they were still soiled when cycle was over. Having a dishwasher was important for this family of 6. The machine needs to be replaced. Just a note...I was surprised to see carpet in the bedrooms. It was noticeably soiled and old. I’d rather have tile.

Needs maintenance
I communicated already about the awful smell from the kitchen sink, as well as the broken dishwasher. Had I been communicated with about the broken dishwasher before our visit, I probably would have bought paper plates and disposable flatware, as well as planned less meals in the condo. It was frustrating to need to hand wash dishes on my vacation. Additionally the WiFi was a mess- it was down more than 3/4 of our time there, which was a big deal because I’m in online classes that required WiFi for my coursework. The biggest problem ended up being an insect problem. My wife woke up after the first nights sleep with bites all over her arms and neck, which turned red and inflamed and had open sores on the tops. It required a teledoc call and prescription antibiotics to resolve. We never saw the insect, but they’re suspected spider bites. The second night we added clean sheets to the bed from the linen closet, and removed pillows from the bed. There were still many mosquitos in the condo, despite our diligence in quickly closing the doors as we entered/exited, and not opening the Windows. The decor was nice and the location is awesome, but there were just too many problems.

Best Vacation Rental!
This property was perfect for our party of 6. It was less than a block away from beach access with a shower and bathroom! This place had unexpected perks like Roku/cable/BBQ pits at the pool and it was fully stocked with little stuff like a pizza cutter and ice cream scoop along with all the essentials for cooking. The property was well maintained and clean and didn’t have a musty mold smell like most beach rentals. We will definitely be back!

Great location
Beach access point is right across the street. The condo is on the second floor. The bedding was VERY comfortable. The shared pool was smaller, but great for the kids! The only downside was location of items in the kitchen. Silverware, hot pans, etc. were not in the cupboard I would initially look for them in. Such a small inconvenience though. The condo was really in the perfect location to everything and we can’t wait to stay here again! I highly recommend this place!
