Close to the Beach in Popular Seagrove Beach!

This condo is very spacious and in a great location. There are all the amenities you would expect in a condo at this price point, including laundry room with washer and dryer and even an elevator to get up to the fourth floor (so nice for my handicapped mother-in-law!). The big balcony offers a view of the pool below as well as ocean over the rooftops of the houses across the street. We loved sitting out there! The pool is large and has its own restrooms and outdoor shower to get the sand off after the beach. It is a bit of a walk to get down to the beach itself. You have to cross the road and go through a neighborhood, then down a couple flights of steps over the dunes. Once there, you have a bit of a hike to find a place to set up if you don’t want to be right behind the rental chairs for the community you have just walked through. This was hard on my mother-in-law, so she only made it to the beach a few of the days we were there.

The condo was nice, but the management left a little to be desired. It had not been thoroughly cleaned when we arrived. Two of the beds were unmade (one a top bunk!), and on one of the bunks, the sheets had not been changed from the previous renters. There was trash under the couch, and the front of one of the refrigerator drawers was broken off completely. There was also only one roll of toilet paper in the whole condo when we arrived!

Most frustrating, the management company sent us all the way to the office in Blue Mountain Beach (20-30 min away) to retrieve parking passes upon arrival. We had just had a nine hour drive with three small children, and it was past their bedtime. And when we looked in the office lockbox, there were no passes there for us! The employee we spoke to told us just to make a handwritten sign for our dash explaining the situation, and then we find out the next day that the property doesn’t even require parking passes! Wild goose chase, and our poor kids were so tired!

Overall, this is a great location if you are ok with a walk to the beach, but I’d recommend renting a different unit from a different owner in the same complex.
