The beachfront location was perfect. Unfortunately, the front door looked like a utility closet upon entry...very dirty. The household items such as the iron/ironing board, kitchen utensils, pots and pans need to be replaced/updated. Please see pictures attached. Thanks.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the beachfront location. The front door shown in your photo is part of the building exterior, which is maintained by the association, and we’ve already reported it to the building manager. Inside the condo, we work hard to keep everything in great shape and many guests comment on how comfortable it is. We’ll certainly review the kitchen items and ironing board you mentioned. We do wish these concerns had been shared during your stay when we checked in with you, as the only question we received was about the Wi-Fi password - we’re always happy to help in real time. We do feel this spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath beachfront condo - with the rare bonus of extra bedding in the third bedroom - offers great value, and most guests find it to be a wonderful experience. While it’s surprising to see such a low overall rating, we appreciate your suggestions and will continue making improvements for our guests.

Probably the best I’ve stayed at in a long time.

This condo was perfect for us. Roomy, clean, and very well decorated. The only downfall was there wasn’t enough towels. We had to wash a load every day. But other than that it was perfect. Especially thanks for the cleanliness.

Nice condo with lots of updates for our girls getaway

The condo was very nice. Loved the decor and updates. Short walk to the shore and plenty of beach room to spread out. The only problem with unit (& really not a problem) was the back bedroom close to entry door was hotter than any other room. All other rooms were nice and cool even set at 72. Would definitely consider staying in this unit again and we are very seasoned beach goers.

Great overall experience

Overall we had a great experience!! Our stay started with easy plenty of room parking . Luggage carts to haul everything to your room . Our condo was clean , plenty of room , comfy beds , great balcony. Had plenty of seats inside for the entire family to have meals ect .. AC worked great . Pool was nice , warm and never busy !!! Short walk to the beach . Only cons we had was the stove / oven didn’t heat that well and wifi really didn’t work at all . Both of which didn’t affect our trip whatsoever . Would definitely stay again .

Beach stay review

Loved how convenient it was from room to beach, no waits for elevator, a lot of room on the beach, and it was a small intimate building. Also loved the third bedroom with the extra bunk beds. A few cosmetic issues, but nothing that impeded our stay and owner was quick to respond. My only personal disappointment was I couldn’t see the sunrise good from the balcony. This has nothing to do with condo, but hated they blocked the road off 2 days before shrimp fest. This was super inconvenient! We had a great time! We would definitely come back! Thank you!!

Thanks for the awesome review! We're thrilled to hear you loved the convenience of getting from your room to the beach—no elevator waits means more time for fun in the sun! 🌊 We're glad you enjoyed the extra bunk beds in the third bedroom; a little extra room for the crew is always a win! I appreciate you mentioning the cosmetic issues; we’re on it, but I’m glad they didn’t hinder your stay. Since 304 sits on the west end, it does focus more on those fantastic beachfront views. We’d love to welcome you back for round two—thanks for being such a great guest!

Wonderful family layout

The layout of the condo was perfect for two families with kids. It was nice that there was a short walk to the pool and beach. The condo was fully stocked with everything we needed. You can tell the condo has been well loved as there is some where in tear. Our biggest complaint was the cleanliness. The condo is in need of a deep clean. We had to contact the property management company about the cleaning issue. The pull out sofa was unusable because of the lack of cleaning. I appreciated them sending out someone to clean but they made me feel as if I was being unreasonable with my concerns. I sent them photos and video to show the issues at hand. We love the area- been visiting the beach since the 80’s.

Great but short beach currently

Property was clean and neat. We intentionally stayed at a smaller resort to avoid the crowded elevators, resort,etc and it never felt crowded. Check in process definitely needs to be electronic instead of wasting time driving to another location to only receive everything that could have been emailed. Beach was very small currently due to recent storm and there were reports of beach expansions but that will take quite a bit of time. Kids lived the pool when not on the beach. Very well kept by staff at condo! Great location except a tad close to a Hugh rise condo that empty’s onto the beach two condos away. Overall a great place, might be awhile if return until beach is a bit wider.
