Samuel, Thank you for letting us know that you loved your stay. We're glad you enjoyed the community and we hope you had fun on our beautiful beaches. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
This is our second year visiting The Nautilus. We love the home and location. Plenty of space for a large family on a week vacation. The kitchen is stocked very well with items needed. The golf cart is such a great addition as well as plenty of bikes.
Hey John, thank you for your review. We're so happy your family enjoyed this amazing home for a second year in a row. It's great to hear you got to ride the bikes and utilize the golf cart provided. Thanks again for your feedback and we hope to see you again next year!
What an incredible home! A lot of thought went into the design of all the spaces, the details throughout were amazing. We loved everything from the fabulous master suite, tower, unbelievably spacious spot to gather on the main level, golf cart, plunge pool and fountain. Can't say enough about this lovely home, thank you for sharing!
Hi DB, thank you for your review! Weâre pleased to hear you found the home spacious and you enjoyed the plunge pool & fountain. We value your referrals and hope you will come back to visit! Thank you again for your feedback and thank you for staying with Real Joy!
We enjoyed our fourth Thanksgiving in Watersound and this property did not disappoint. Wonderful layout for extended family and having the carriage house is a definite bonus. The heated pool was wonderful for our grandchildren to work on their swimming skills. The alarms on the pool doors provided an added protection for us. Loved having a golf cart too!
Teri, Thank you for letting us know that you enjoyed your Thanksgiving vacation. We're glad you enjoyed the golf cart and the heated pool. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Very very responsive property agency-surpassing 360blue. House was beautiful and tons of space. Separate entrances for multiple families on different floors. Golf cart made it a 20sec rude to the beach. We will go back!
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, Katherine, and we greatly appreciate your kind words about our responsiveness. We are also thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed this beautiful home. We look forward to you staying with us in the future!
Beautiful home and resort. We loved our stay and comfortably fit 7 people.
The Home exceeded our expectations! Itâs a stunning home. Beautifully decorated. Wonderfully equipped with everything that you need. We miss it!! The community is wonderful and exactly what we were looking for. We will be staying here again and again. The golf cart that is provided was a lifesaver. I am in love with the entire home but my personal favorite was the master bath. The soaking tub was great.
This home was great and easily accommodated our group of friends/families for spring break. The property was close to Bruno's pizza, which was convenient for any last minute meals when needed. The golf cart and bikes that were provided were very helpful when carting guests to the beach, pool, or playground.
Any issues we experienced during our stay were handled quickly by maintenance. We did learn that WaterSound only allows 3 vehicle passes for this property, and any additional vehicles must be stowed in overflow parking outside the WaterSound entrance. We also learned that the passes included with this home only allow certain pool and cart path access. This wasn't an issue, just something we discovered when attempting to visit certain areas of the WaterSound community.
Overall it was a great stay and we'd definitely consider renting again. We love the privacy, safety and fewer crowds while staying in WaterSound. Wonderful community.
Ally, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. It sounds like your group had a wonderful spring break, enjoying both the convenient location and the amenities provided. Your feedback on the vehicle passes and access within WaterSound will be helpful for future guests. We look forward to welcoming you back to enjoy the privacy and charm of the WaterSound community again. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Overall great stay in a wonderful house/location. A few issues made this a 3.5-4.0 star stay. Check In process was not âas advertisedâ and Watersound Security was frustrating to deal with â the emailed QR code didnât work 3 of 5 days. 2nd floor (main sleeping area) A/C unit was inop on arrival. Pool heating was intermittent and only worked <2 of 5 days â had to make several calls to restore pool heating. Property thermostats restricted to 72 degrees â was not mentioned in description. Overall the property seems tired. It needs a refresh (LR shag rug, bed linen, pressure washing, [leaking] coffee maker, obnoxious intermittent door locks, etc.). It wouldnât take much to avoid guest frustration with having to âadultâ during what is supposed to be a turnkey vacation. RealJoy [property management] was very easy to work with via phone and textâjust really wish I didnât have to be constantly engaged with them to resolve issues.
RealJoy Vacations are terrible to deal with. They would not consider a refund during March of 2020 when the covid pandemic had everyone on lockdown. Most terrible customer service I've ever had. DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM.
Sonia, we apologize for any frustration that you have experienced. We see that in March 2020, we provided our cancellation policy when you wanted to cancel your reservation. In April 2020, you reservation dates were changed from April 2020 to December 2021, less than a week before your stay. In June 2020, you wanted to move your reservation to September. The requested dates were not available due to the owner's booking. You decided to move your reservation to November 2021. We have tried to be as accommodating as possible. We hope you enjoyed the layout and decor of this five-bed, five-bath house in WaterSound. Thank you for choosing Real Joy.
This home is beautiful and was perfect for our family of 12, 8 adults and 4 children. The house is setup so that there are many spaces to spread out if needed. We were thankful there was a gold cart included to get all of us back and forth to the beach. We had a wonderful time!
Beautiful rental with all the amenities. Plenty of room for our large family. Kitchen was fully stocked with Thermador appliances which made cooking easy. Ice machine was a plus! We would definitely rent again. The only negative would be the golf cart was very rusty and the bikes were older.
Ann, we appreciate you taking the time to provide us with some feedback regarding your vacation rental experience while staying in The Nautilus in WaterSound. We are happy to know that you enjoyed a wonderful stay in this beautiful, well stocked rental, which provided plenty of space and a nice fully stocked kitchen; and you would definitely stay here again. We will forward your message regarding the bikes and golf cart to property managers so that they may assess these items. Thank you for choosing Real Joy.
Jahmal, we are happy to know that you would recommend this great rental property, the four-story Nautilus in WaterSound; to others visiting the area. Thank you for choosing Real Joy.
Great location and house layout, lots of maintenance issues
Great house for large families with lots of age ranges. Great therapy/plunge pool & spa. Great neighborhood with nice amenities.
However, we had multiple maintenance issues that continually interrupted our stay requiring maintenance people to be in and out of the house. It also requires constant communication with the property manager which, although helpful when contacted, often required a lengthy hold before getting anyone. Made for a frustrating week...
Hi Gregg, thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you were able the enjoy the great pool at this property and the amenities of the neighborhood. We would like to apologize for the maintenance inconveniences during your stay with us. We know these inconveniences were frustrating , but thank you for allowing our team to assess and repair your concern areas. We are glad that our customer service team was helpful and we see that we were able to provide compensation for the inconveniences incurred during your stay. Again, we appreciate your feedback.
We booked this property for an extended family vacation that included 6 children and 6 adults. The property was perfect and RealJoy was easy to work with. The property had everything we needed for our large family. We will for sure book again.
Hi Brianne, we're happy to hear you found the perfect property for a party of 12 in The Nautilus! We're also pleased to hear our staff was so easy to work with, and you plan to visit us again. Thanks for booking with RealJoy, we'll see you soon!
Hi Stacy, thank you for your feedback of this magnificent home in Watersound! We hope you got to explore the community and enjoyed the private plunge pool as well. Thanks again for your review and for staying with RealJoy Vacations!
We adored every detail of this home! From the huge gathering space on the main level with those gorgeous ceilings to the master suite, tower, golf cart, fountain and plunge pool! There was plenty of space to either gather or spread out during our stay. In love with this place, thank you for sharing!
Hi DB, thank you for your review! Weâre happy to hear you loved this home and found it spacious and enjoyed the golf cart. We value your referrals and hope you will come back to visit! Thank you again for your feedback and thank you for staying with Real Joy!
This house is very well-appointed. You can tell that much thought went into the furnishings and overall design layout. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our vacation. From the house, to the neighborhood, to the peaceful 30A area. We will definitely be back.
Hi Sharon, thank you for your feedback on your stay at this wonderful home. Weâre pleased to hear you found the home well-appointed and we hope you enjoyed the short trip to the beach. Thanks again for your feedback and thank you for staying with Real Joy!
The Nautilus is well-designed for a multi-family escape. The open kitchen allows for large meal prep (two dishwashers) at the same time the rest of the family enjoys the living room and fabulous doors that open onto the porch.
The kids loved the pool and the loft bunk beds! (Parents appreciate the safety features). The multiple levels and comfortable areas scattered throughout provide spaces for many people to escape including a tower! The little things have been taken care of. We'll be back!
Thank you for your feedback on your stay at this lovely home. We're happy to hear you enjoyed the spacious kitchen and your kids enjoyed the pool and bunk beds! We value your referrals and hope you will come back to visit! Thank you again for your feedback and thank you for staying with Real Joy!
