Above and beyond

The guest services agents were awesome. Emergency sickness ended us up with my husband hospitalized and the staff helped me vacate the condo an hour after check in so I could help my very sick husband at the hospital. We are so very grateful.

Stay was nice

The kitchen was not that well stocked. It sleeps 6 people but only had 5 forks and very limited plates. Space was nice for what you use it for. Floor was sandy when we arrived and we tried to vacuum but the vacuum they provide in the room did nothing.

Room was adequate for the amount paid. Well pleased except for broken lamp in the bedroom which made the room look like a fight happen in it and the sliding door to the balcony was super hard to open. Shower dripped all night. Great view and the air conditioning was great.

Just a bad trip to the Tidewater

We stay here 2-3 times a year, every year and this was just a bad trip this go around. Normally everything is great but it seemed like everything amenity wise we would use was broken this year. Something wrong with both outdoor hot tubs, indoor hot tubs, pool, elevators etc. The room we stayed in (1606) was very dated. It needed some upgrades. I’m sure we’ll be back but this go around left a bad taste in our mouth.

A nice getaway

The room was clean and decent, the bathrooms and kitchen were stocked nicely with extra linen and toiletries if needed. The amenities were good and well kept. The one and only complaint of the visit is the elevators. 30 floors with several rooms and plenty of people to only have four elevators is crazy. Half your time is wasted waiting on a elevator to get back and forth from your room to the ground floor (beach level with pools, game room, theater room location) even the second floor (where you check in) or the first floor(wave’s restaurant location). If something could be done about the elevator the experience could be so much better.

Condo was very nice. Could not get the TV to work; balcony door was really hard to open and close. Property- the elevator system was awful. I was on the 16th floor and always had to wait a minimum of 15 minutes - maximum if 25 minutes. They should really take a look at how NY hi-rise hotels handle their elevator system. Property should list more of the check in Procedures in their website - most particularly the use of luggage carts. Lots of security on the property which was nice. They were very pleasant.

Unexplainable loud noise at 5:30 AM

The good thing about this unit is that it on the beach, with a beautiful ocean view . The bad thing about this unit is that you cannot get any sleep. The first night we were there we were woken up at 5:30 AM with loud intermittent buzzing and extremely loud humming noise coming from the master closet, inside the wall. This went on for almost an hour, and came back intermittently throughout the day. The second night was better, but the noise started again at 7:00 in the morning. Front desk would not move us after we complained the first night. They also sent a maintenance man who said the sound was running water, it was absolutely not running water. They never did anything about it. I would not rent this unit again

Does need some updating

This is a nice little condo, but it does need some updates. The living room furniture was very worn and felt like sitting on the floor when sitting on it. In order to have anything plugged up on one side of the bed, an extension cord was run across the bedroom floor, which in the middle of the night can be a trip hazard. The mattress was stained. This condo is directly off of the elevator so there was a LOT of noise outside the bedroom window at night from people waiting on the elevator. There are not enough elevators in this building for all of the rooms and floors that it has. It was nice that the room reservation included 2 seats on the beach and parking. The Waves restaurant on the 1st floor has pretty good food.

Disgusting Condo

This condo is equivalent to a stay in a roach motel. Everything from the doors, walls, curtains, gross carpet, inch thick dust on ceiling fan, and the furniture could not be sat on without covering first. We have traveled ALOT and I have never encountered a stay such as this (especially a beach front condo). Very disappointing stay!

The beach and environs were great. The unfortunate misplacing if my iPhone on a lounger by the beach was recovered by Beach Security! Anther plus. But the furniture in the units (1506 and 1504)...so so outdated. The roll out sleeper was tortuous. I’ve already got back problems. Horrible! Why don’t these resorts replace them after 20 years?? Luckily we brought our therapeutic mattress or else sleeping would have been impossible. I’m an RN. Wasn’t expecting to be lying in a reverse Trendelenberg position feet slanted downward... our heads had to be at the foot of the bed or we would have passed out!!
