The place to stay

Beautiful, clean and best of all steps away from the beach.This is the 2nd time my daughter and I have stayed at Hot Sea Tot Sea. It also feels like a very safe area. We highly recommend booking directly with Warren Beach rentals they communicate with you well and are very trustworthy. The amenities in the unit are great and there is a publix, restaurants and many other stores close by. It is by far our favorite place we have ever stayed!

Fantastic stay @ Hot Sea Tot Sea!

Excellent 1st floor location allowing for great access to the beach throughout the day and also for evening walks. The condo was exactly as described, very clean, well equipped, and a great location near Henderson Beach State Park. Booking with Warren Beach Rentals was a pleasure and we look forward to a return visit. The beach service was the icing on the cake for a great visit to Hot Sea Tot Sea.

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Location is spot on. It’s why we chose this property. Was so excited but upon arrival we quickly realized the property has not been cared for. It was dirty. Beyond dirty. Sheets had not been changed, floors still had food scraps, a wad of chewed gum on the living room floor to name a few but the worst was the large wad of hair left in the shower drain. I have pictures of all of this. We also did not have pillow cases for some of the pillows. The area rug and couch was stained. The bathroom towels were hodge podge, one hand towel per bathroom for the week and the kitchen could have been stocked for the actual amount of people that the property sleeps. There was no thought or consideration or accountability to guests in my opinion. We have stayed in different units at this property w different management and have always had a good experience. Will not use Warren Beach rentals again.

Not quite perfect

Pros: LOCATION A++ Cons: Throw rugs were filthy. Stove top was dirty. Light bulbs were not all working. VERY limited supply of necessities- one trash bag for week, a few tablespoons of dish soap, one roll of cheap paper towels, no dish cloth in kitchen and no cleaning supplies. You are expected to buy what you need because there is not enough for the week. Thermostat is on a schedule that you can't change. Expect to get hot while sleeping. Bath towels are average quality. No beach towels provided. Summary: Lovely condo, BUT there is a feeling that comfort of guests is low priority despite being charged a premium price. Some easy fixes if they choose to take our feedback seriously.

Response from VrboOwner on 5 Nov 2024
Thank you for the review. We have inspected the thermostat and it seems to respond fine to any changes, not exactly sure of what you had going on. In our arrival emails and letters and E-book we clearly outline what we provide for our guests. We provide starter soaps and 2 rolls of paper per bath and in the kitchen and advise guests that they may want to purchase more if they are there for a while. We are also quite clear in the same arrival info that we do not provide beach towels for our guests. The reason we do not is it cost roughly $10 to have a beach towel professionally cleaned and most of our guests do not want to have that additional expense added to their stay. We value your comments, but also its noted that we are quite clear on what we provide.

Very easy to communicate with. LOCATION was the best thing about this place! You cannot beat this amazing location. We would love to come back next year. Only thing we didn’t like was the hallway beds, wish it was bunks instead. The master bed was unbelievably comfortable! The kitchen was beautiful and had everything we needed. We loved that they kept some beach toys on the back porch, our kids enjoyed them. Parking was easier than expected, when the lot was full we parked across the street which was very convenient. The beach was quiet and private, not crowded at all.
