We had an awesome week in PCB, and we loved staying at Horizon South. There was a small plumbing issue during our stay, but the host sent a plumber out as soon as he was able to and resolved the issue. It’s a great property and a great condo!

Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate your understanding with the plumbing issue! Please keep us in mind for your next trip to the Beach!
Our stay at Horizon South was amazing,the condo was actually better than the pictures online. The only thing that was a bummer was the construction that was going on which prevented us from being able to enter in & out of the neighborhood from the main strip.
The condo was perfect for the 3 of us. Perfect amount of space and the location was great. Close to the pier, shops, and short walk to the ocean. The condo itself was spotless and beds were comfortable. We had a little trouble witb the keypad, but the owner was quick and helpful with his response. Definitely will be staying here again!
Location is in close proximity to 3 pools, hot tub, tennis and basketball court. About a 15 minute walk to the beach. The condo was very clean and well stocked. Worked perfectly for me and my 3 children, ages 10-13. Woukd definitely stay again.
Hello I enjoyed my stay, but the parking was horrible.I was only able to park close to the building the day of arriving once our return.There was nowhere to park, had to put down by the office and passing dumpster.The time I was there going. Overall pleasant and peaceful stay..
Rented a loft house was clean and functional. There was construction going on at the main entrance. WiFi was incorrect and talked with host several times to get resolved. Toilet was running continuously so my husband fixed it himself. Longer walk to beach from house. Overall okay

The house was home-y, some problems.
When we arrived at our rental, it was very inviting and comfortable. We loved it . When calling the renter about the wifi not working he tried to walk us through what we needed to do but that failed and when we called back later , his dad answered in a very very improper tone. Needless to say , the wifi didn't work the entire time we were there and getting ahold of our renters was pretty much useless. In regards to the place, it was really nice and updated we enjoyed the glass shower and the big bed !! Also , armbands were required on property which is 5$ per person which should've either been mentioned in the description or included with the stay . Overall, the place is nice and close to everything really !

Stacy, I am glad to hear that the condo was inviting and comfortable! Unfortunately, Wifi is not something that we have control over, you called and texted once and I didn't hear back from you so I figured that you were able to get connected. Regarding the $5.00 amenity fee, if you would have read on the rate page of the listing you would have seen that it has been in place since March 1, 2015. I am sorry that you missed that information. I don't believe that your oversight should in any way cause such a low rating. Hope that you had a safe trip home and come back to see us again.
This place is super nice. Area was quite and peaceful but still on front beach rd. Lots of things for kids and teenagers to do in the complex. A short walk to beach access and he beach was never crowded in that area. Rental agent was very helpful and responsive. Would definitely stay here again in the future.
Horizon South is always a great place to stay. This was my first time staying at this particular unit. This unit has a security camera outside of the unit at the front door…first time staying at a Horizon South unit with one. Feels like the owner watches your every move going into the unit. The owner of this unit is STRICT on how many people that can stay in the unit. This unit says it sleeps 4 but can easily sleep 6. We had 6 people in our party and was told two people had to leave after we made a 5 hour drive. People can come in and out of the unit as guest during the day but can only have 4 people in it when it’s time to go to bed.
This was a nice property but a little cramped. The bedroom on the main floor was a very nice size and the loft area with two beds was also good. The kitchen was extremely small but was well stocked with dishes. The living /dining room was a little crowded with furniture but it served its purpose. The patio was ideal. All in all it was a nice place to stay.
The unit was clean. The location was convenient to all the area attractions. We enjoyed our stay and would visit again.

Unfortunately the rental unit smells like mothballs and the kitchen is tiny. The washing machine quit working halfway through our stay so we left 2 nights early.

I'm sorry you had an issue with the washer in the unit. Before I could respond to your email about the washer not working you left without letting me inform you that there is an on-site laundromat. As for the mothball smell, the owner let me know that they don't use any so I'm not sure what you were smelling.
The condo was really nice and well furnished. It was located fairly close to the pool's and office/clubhouse. The beach was a bit of a walk but not a long miserable walk.
