The property was very dated. The mattress on the bed was absolutely wore out. The couches in the living area were in need of been replaced and head covers on them. Everywhere you looked, there was signs of wear and you could see where the walls had them touched up instead of being painted. All in all, the condo was in need of a major renovation. With the condition of the property, it should have been rented at a discounted rate. We decided to put all this behind us and enjoy our vacation anyway. I would not recommend staying in this unit. The owner should take more responsibility for the condition of the condo.

Room 1404 , dryer didn’t work. Broken tiles in the kitchen covered up with dirty rugs. Casper was filthy. Over an hour wait for an elevator each time. Very inconvenient , for the price people pay to go on vacation these things need to be updated or it needs to be let known from the beginning. Beautiful views from the balcony , pools were nice , beaches were beautiful staff wasn’t very friendly in the front nor helpful. No tissue for bathrooms. No detergent for dishwasher .

I don’t like to leave poor reviews but this place needs some improvements ! First, our room was not ready when we arrived the couch cushions were soaking wet from being cleaned and one side of the condos power didn’t work which we had to wait hours to have fixed! The elevator situation needs mass improvements we had to wait 45min to an hour to get to our room and the beach ! Thank God our room was on the 6th floor and we walked the stairs mostly but we shouldn’t have had too. I just feel bad for anyone of the top floors or and one handicapped that didn’t have a choice! Definitely won’t stay here again.

DO NOT RECOMMEND, THIS IS A TERRIBLE PLACE!

DO NOT EVER MAKE YOUR RESERVATION HERE!! IT IS THE WORST NIGHTMARE EVER!! My reservations was made and paid in advance with a confirmation number, I drove 7 hours from Tennessee with my family looking forward to their last beach vacation based on age. I was turned away after 2 hours attempting to find my reservation, no manager could be reached, I finally found a last minute place away from the beach with no view! At 11:50 pm, I get a call that my reservation is found and if I check in before 12:00pm, I will not loose my reservation! This is not a reasonable time, 10 minutes!! I can't even drive there in that time frame! I did not get a refund because the Management would not answer the calls or request. I am not able to get a refund and for a senior family, this is devasting. No one cared that our entire trip was over based on this place lack of professionalism. With my confirmation, they could have seen our place was reserved and paid for and offered another condo or even room, but they did not. I would never recommend this place, it is terrible and will ruin your dreams of the forever trip! Instead it is the worst trip forever!

It wasn't like other condos that I have stayed at before. It wasn't as clean as I would of expected. There were many flaws with the condo, such as TV's not working, remotes missing, dishwasher backflow into the garbage disposal, hair from former guest in the bathroom, and the floors were covered with sand. To top it off, I never got my confirmation email from Vacasa, so the check in was really rough. They did after the fact try to email it to me 3 times, but it never arrived, till my last day. I will not stay at Tidewater ever again. There are a lot of other condos, at the same price with better customer service and cleanliness. The only thing that saved us was we were at PCB. It is a shame, we work all year for this one week, and its costly. Not just the condo, but dinners and entertainment. I couldn't wait to leave the condo. I did tell Vacasa employees of the issues, but I guess they were all so busy. Oh, I forgot to mention a Vacasa employee with no curtesy needing to change out fire detectors. Didn't ask if this was a bad time. We had no warning. They just barged in and said they had to do it right now. They could've done it the day we checked out. And they left a mess to boot.
