Our time at Lucky Charm was enjoyable. After many years of visiting Seaside, I have discovered that I love being tucked back into Seaside. There is much less traffic to allow for safe bike loops for the kids, and it is very peaceful. Lucky Charm is on the corner of Forest St and W Ruskin, so you are tucked away but only steps from the park and town center. The outside spaces are the best I've ever experienced in Seaside, making this place one of my favorites. I was a bit frustrated during the reservation and booking process because it took multiple emails and calls to get responses from the management company on a few topics; however, once we were in the property, the company was exceptional. Unlike other property management companies I've encountered in Seaside before, everyone was friendly and helpful. There was never a wait on the phone or for resolution despite it being one of the busiest times of the year. Our welcome host was incredibly friendly, and you would have never known that they had been dealing with demanding vacationers all day/week/month. My only issue with the property was that the thermostat is a Nest thermostat, which is programmed and adjusts without warning. As a diligent renter, I am sure to raise the temp to 77-80 when we leave for the day and lower it to a more reasonable living temperature when we are in the home. With the Nest, the temp would reset to 90 without warning during the day making the sleeping attic unbearable for several hours after we returned. The thermostat would also reset in the night to a much higher temperature resulting in very hot nights and not a full night's sleep for an entire week. The thermostat is locked down by the homeowner, so you aren't able to adjust the programming. While we'd like to stay here again, I'm not sure I can sacrifice sleep for another week.
