We enjoyed out stay for the beginning of April 2026. We only stayed a few nights, but the property was clean and looked just as the photos and listing described. We were very happy to have all the extra towels and also the shampoo, soap, laundry detergent, and dish soap was helpful for a short stay! We enjoyed being on the 1st floor because it made it very easy for me, my wife, and my two sons (age 6 & 4) to go to the beach! You couldn't see the ocean from the patio because of the sand dune, but the landscaping was nice, the weather was perfect, and you could hear the ocean nicely. Overall, it was a nice experience.

Some of the furnishings in the kitchen were worn out, example aged baking pan with rusty spots on it, too dangerous to cook in. The coffeepot did not function properly. Coffee over run every time used, had to stand by it to hold the coffee pot up to the driper. After mgt looked at it and stared it was new. Its just not a good machine, or the coffee pot had been replaced and did not fit properly. None of the cooking pots had fitting lids. The bed mattress had a low spot the size of an oversized Fat man made an indentation in it. VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. The other furnishings were fine. The sleeper sofa was great.
Coffee pot ran over with each pot of coffee.
Coffee woukd not drip into the pot, like the pot was not the correct size.
This bak8bg sheet had rusted on the inside and would not wash off.
Rusty baking pan.

I personally went to the unit upon the guest concerns. The coffee maker is brand new. The guest did not know how to use the dual drip/ K-Cup coffee maker. (I showed the guest how to use the machine)- the mattress is brand new and purchased a month ago. The cookware is also in good condition. This is not a valid review for this property. The whole unit has been upgraded with new floors, paint, mattresses, etc.

Sea Oats is so nice. Location is right off the bridge. On the beach. Our experience from start to finish was outstanding. Quick response when we had a question, easy check-in and check-out. Chairs and umbrella on the beach were definitely needed. We had all we needed. I want to come back. Thank you

Perfect Vacation

This was our first time, as a family, taking a beach vacation so It was also our first time renting a condo that was beachfront. This stay was everything we could’ve hoped for. Super clean, easy access to the beach, and the entire place was family friendly. We will be back again. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
