We had a great stay at this property. The 30 per day fee to heat the pool was very excess considering the heater was set to run only 8 hours per day. And some days it only ran an hour, just a complete waste of 840. Other than that the property was great.

Thank you for your review, Tara! We are pleased to hear that you had a great stay at Sea-Esta. We appreciate your feedback regarding the pool heating fee and will certainly take it into consideration for future improvements. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable stay in the future!
We enjoyed our stay at Sea-Esta. The location was perfect for our fishing plans, and the house was stocked well with appliances and kitchen wares. We were able to dock our boat and the use of the bait freezer was nice. The i-Trip staff was responsive to all our questions. However, there were a few items that made our stay uncomfortable. First, the pool temperature is set at 85 degrees. While this sounds warm, it is not, especially for toddlers. We asked a couple of times for the temperature to be increased to 89 or 90 but was told it was under owner control and not able to be increased. This was especially frustrating because we had inquired about a previous negative review before booking and was told it was unrealistic because it was May air temps compared to water temperature. Since we rented in January, this was absolutely not the case. The pool is always in the shade, so it gets no natural heat. A total waste of the additional 840 we paid for the month. We highly advise you to not pay the extra for the pool.Secondly, the house air-conditioned temperature is regulated remotely by the owners and set with a password. Initially the house was hot and very humid. We had several sleepless nights until the management company finally got them to let us decrease the temperature. But there were several times we would turn it down and it would mysteriously go back up. While we understand their desire to make sure the house is not abused, it was very frustrating.
