THE BEACH: The 'wet sand beach' is not private property, so enjoy sitting, relaxing or building sandcastles on the white sandy beaches. If you dig holes in the sand, please fill in the holes so baby turtles just hatched, don't get trapped in the holes. The 'dry sand dunes' are off limits. It’s considered private property. The sea oats and sand dunes act as a wall to help protect property from storm surges. The dunes are also part of the coastal ecosystem that hosts a wide range of animals. From shoreline birds, beach-nesting birds, sea turtles and dune mice. The survival of these animals is by protecting the sea oats and sand dunes which are very fragile and cannot survive being trampled on.

Beds were not good in either room and dryer would not work, problem with turn on switch.

We loved the condo as far as size, layout and view. But beds and appliances need to be updated.

Perfect Location

Sterling Beach is always a great choice and this condo was wonderful. Very clean and spacious. Beds were firm but comfortable. I usually won't use a rental's jacuzzi tub, but it was clean. Kitchen is well stocked. Blender looked really old, but worked better than my new one at home. Family pictures around the unit were sweet and homey. We had a wonderful stay!! Thank you owners for sharing your family condo with our family.

Lovely Condo

The Condo was lovely. Very well decorated and nice. It was very clean. The kitchen had everything you needed and then some. The view from the 15th floor is breathtaking. The grounds are beautiful and well kept. The only small issue we had was the broken and buckled floor tiles in front of the kitchen sink. Definitely could not walk around barefoot. Other than that, we had no issues whatsoever.

Nice facility with a gorgeous view

Maintenance was very slow to respond to repairs. Toilet wouldn’t flush and icemaker didn’t work, owner called maintenance but they did not respond during our visit.

Relaxing Vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at Sterling Beach. Parking was easy. Elevators were clean and fast. Our room was spacious and as described online.. I have 2 complaints about our stay. 1. There were no rugs as sand was easily tracked in and around the condo. I spent a lot of time sweeping . There was also a lot of sand and dust under beds. A good dust mopping would be beneficial. The mattresses were squeaky and not very comfortable. I would have expected better with this nice of a condo.

Needs amenity updating.

Furniture is old and filthy. Recliner in pictures was different and very rickety. Party of the reason we picked this unit because of the big recliner only to be disappointed. Old dishwasher didn't get dishes clean. Old dryer didn't get clothes dry unless ran for hours. Noisy place. There was an awful drive most of the time. Elevator noise was pretty bad. The view was breathtaking. Needs we're okay. Bedding was bad. Old pillows.

Dishonest deal

The room was great, the problem is you didn't disclose that the balcony view would be blocked by scaffolding. Saying the roof of the resort is being worked on isnt an acceptable disclosure, it should have explicitly said the balcony view would blocked. That was wrong on your part. No one at VRBO or #vacasa tried to remedy the situation after promising me I'd get a call back.
