We had an excellent stay here. We love stay at the Plantations, the beach and the pool are so close and it’s nice not having to get in the car and drive anywhere. There is a coffee place called Selah close by and the Sassy Bass is good too.

Enjoyed our stay. Room was smaller than expected, may have been difficult with older kids. Didn’t seem the cleaning crew had cleaned the sand from under the couch in awhile.

My husband and I stay at the Plantation resort every year in October. This year's condo provided a beautiful view of the ocean from the fourth floor. The condo provided all the basic kitchen necessities to cook our daily meals. It had plenty of blankets and linens as well as towels and washcloths. If I had to put a negative it would be the water pressure and the slow draining tub but it wasn't bad enough to not recommend the condo. We had an enjoyable stay as always.

Condo was neat and clean and in a very good location. Quiet and peaceful stay. The only negatve is the sofa. It either needs a good cleaning or to just be replaced.

Summer getaway

We’ve stayed on this property in several different units over the years and have enjoyed every experience. This unit is likely the cleanest and most updated of any we’ve had the pleasure to stay in. We were very impressed with the utilization of space, considering the limited size! VERY functional and adaptable. The direct view of the beach makes up for the distance from the pools and boardwalk. Would definitely stay here again.

Would stay again

Photos made the condo seem a little larger than it actually turned out to be for a family of 4 (boys 10 & 13) but we had sufficient room and there was so much to do at the resort and nearby we didn't do much more than sleep in the room.

Great place

Was very clean where it counts- bedroom and bathroom and kitchen. Didn’t look like it was cleaned underneath the sofa. Know this because we were sweeping one day after the beach. Could use more eating utensils. Overall a great place for my wife and I. Would stay here again without question.
