Modern condo across from the seawall with shared pools, hot tubs & a gym!

I loved the coziness of the place...I didn't like the stove area...couldn't read the knobs to cook...the use of space throughout the place was wonderful.

everything about the condo was great! The condo was at a great location right in front of the beach it was clean and very nice. The only downfall was the bed, the bed was not comfortable at all but other than that we would stay at this location again.

I really cannot say it enough positive things about this place. After reading some of the reviews we were extremely hesitant but we absolutely loved it. Phenomenal location directly across from the beach with a gorgeous view from the balcony. We didn't see any of the problems the other reviews mentioned. There was plenty of seating on the balcony. There was even a table out there we could eat at. We had no problems sleeping at night, especially after a day in the sun! The amenities are great...heated adult pool, separate pool for children and two hot tubs to name a few. There is also an on-site restaurant and the resort staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The place is gorgeous. Very well decorated. Furniture is very comfortable. The mattress on the bed was a bit too soft, and you definitely sink into the middle. That is literally my only complaint. I think some people expect a five-star resort, butler included, for $100 a night. Outstanding value for the price. We felt very comfortable and at home here and will definitely return!

We traveled here from North Texas the last weekend of August 2018 - my husband, myself, and our 3 kids (ages 19, 18, and 4). We stayed from Thursday through Sunday. Because we weren't sure if we were going to be able to take a vacation until last minute, we did not book this room until 2 days prior to our arrival. <br />

<br />

I will get the cons out of the way first.<br />

<br />

Cons:<br />

• There were no clear instructions (or instructions at all, period) on how to lock the main entry door when exiting the room. We tried over and over and couldn't figure it out, so I called Vacasa. They tried instructing me through it, even giving me the code to get the keys out of the lockbox, but I still couldn't figure it out. They called in an emergency work order to get someone out to fit in. Meanwhile, after a good 10 minutes working on it, my husband finally figured it out. You have to enter the code into the digital keypad, then physically turn the latch to lock it. It is easy as pie after you figure it out, but we were left to learn it on our own. <br />

• There was an annoying knocking or dripping noise coming from the ceiling at the entryway, so you can hear it clearly in all rooms. It is unavoidable. It occurred all hours of the day and night and kept my husband awake every night and annoyed the rest of us. A definite problem that needed to be fixed. We will never return to this particular room for this reason alone. The noise was more prominent after the person above us drained their bathwater, so I assume it's the sound of water in the pipes. <br />

• Also, after they drained their bathwater, it started slowly dripping water in our bathroom entryway (I have video footage of it). We put a towel on the floor to catch it. <br />

• As someone else mentioned, the floors are definitely dirty. They need a good mopping.<br />

• Took me 10 minutes to figure out how to properly work the 2 burner stovetop. The knob on the right turns on the top burner and the knob on the left turns on the bottom burner. I don't know about the bottom burner, but as for the top burner, in order to turn it to high, turn the knob counter clockwise slightly to the left. Took several minutes for me to heat it up, but it did eventually work. A bit annoying how small it is. You can't cook 2 things at once.<br />

• The couch sinks in pretty bad, and once folded out as a bed it is not functional at all. The left side is completely caved in. If you plan on bringing enough people for someone to sleep there, don't plan on this condo. Look elsewhere. <br />

• The ball of hair that someone else complained about in the shower is still there. <br />

• The toilet didn't flush super well for us. Be careful about loading too much in there, if you know what I mean. Let's just we had a situation where the plunger didn't do its job and we had to break out a trash bag and gloves. <br />

• No oven (which we went into this knowing).<br />

• The curtain covering the balcony door would fall off every time you tried moving the curtain out of the way. I read about this happening in previous comments. My husband said it looks like all it would take is a quick drill of a screw to fix it. <br />

• Vacasa, the owner of this room, never responded to 2 separate emails I sent them asking questions about the amenities that were not listed. Granted, we only booked 2 days prior to arrival and perhaps that wasn't enough time for them to respond, but, at the same time...2 whole business days went by without a single response! In fact, days later and I still never received a response. Also, the first rep I spoke with from Vacasa our first day to inform I couldn't figure out how to lock our door had a slight sarcastic attitude. I was having a hard time hearing him over the phone due to commotion going on around me, and he would keep talking over me asking if I could hear him, but it was in a definite rude-and-annoyed-but-trying-to-not-act-rude-and-annoyed way. He needed to be a b...

You can read my full review on another popular travel review site, since I am limited on space here. Also included there is a full list of amenities, since those are not listed anywhere. The short end of it: there was a constant knocking noise, I'm assuming coming from the water pipes above, that kept my husband up every night. We will never stay in this room again for that reason alone. It NEVER stops. Vacasa, the owner of this room, does not like responding to emails & 1 of the 2 reps I spoke w/ had a slight sarcastic attitude. Took us 10 min to figure out how to lock the entry door (the key is to shut the door, punch in the code, then turn the top knob to the right). Fold-out couch was non-functional, so don't plan on anyone sleeping on it. Curtain constantly falls off balcony window. Hairball is still in shower. Floors dirty. No instructions on stovetop - to turn top burner on high, turn knob slightly to the left; took several min to heat. Walls are banged up. Bed in bedroom seemed smaller than a queen. Sheets scratchy & made us sweat. 2 of the 3 balcony chairs were broken. When person above us drained their bath, a slow drip started in our bathroom doorframe. Other than that, the location is GREAT! From your balcony, you have a good view of the beach to the left & a view of the adult pool to the right. You are on the "first floor," which is right above the parking garage, & the (free) ice machine is just a few steps away. Just a short walk across a (very busy) street to the beach. Walmart & Sonic are right across the street. You're right on the best part of Seawall, in my opinion. The Victorian staff are very friendly & the grounds are nice, pools are nice & heated & have outdoor showers. Had no problem using codes to get in. A/C was super cold in our room, though the living room area didn't cool as much. Love the decor/modern look. Remote controlled fan/light in bedroom & living room. Adequate lighting & wall outlets throughout. Love the organizing baskets & storage space. Nice, big fridge & microwave. Our 18- and 19-year-old had no complaints about the bunk beds. At 9 PM the night before arrival, we were given the option to check in 5 hours early. At 11 AM the day before our departure, we were given the option to check out 8 hours late for an additional $23. (Don't wait too long - this option disappears after 10 PM - didn't find this out til I contacted them!) "Queen" bed is firmish, no holes, didn't cave in - didn't hurt my back.
