We really enjoyed our stay in Commodore’s Retreat 301! The location is great, and the views are beautiful. The condo had everything we needed. The included beach chair setup service (two chairs, one umbrella) was awesome. The condo was clean, and the bed in the bedroom was comfy (I can't personally speak to the comfort of the bunk beds or the fold out bed, but our kids didn't complain!).
At night, we preferred to close the vertical blinds running along the glass door/windows that face the view of the ocean so that people on the beach could not see into our condo. However, there were several slats missing, so we had to cover the gaps with an extra sheet (which was available in the condo). It would be nice to have the blinds replaced with something that will fully cover the windows in the future. We made it work, though!
The top bunk of the bunk bed was not really usable for us, because we have kids, and there was no safety rail. The bottom bunk and fold out couch in the living room worked out great for our kids.
The parking spots are not numbered, so you can park in any available space in the lot. Some spots are in the sun, and some are covered, which was a nice option to have in the Florida heat! We never had trouble finding a spot and we were usually able to get a covered spot.
We really enjoyed our time at this condo. We never had any problems that required contacting the owner or property manager. We would definitely stay here again in the future, without hesitation!
Condo was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Location on the beach was excellent and the inland lake is perfect for young children.
We will be back in September!
We loved this unit and look forward to returning . The listing does state that some basic essentials are provided but you will want to bring some salt & pepper as well as coffee filters. A little dated in areas but overall good. Water pressure was great in the shower but not so much in the sinks. Be careful walking out on the balcony as the threshold has a high step over and can easily be missed. The view is amazing and that is what really drew me to this corner unit. The bedroom is however on the rear of the condo so no access to the balcony. You do get a beach view though from the room. We look forward to returning !
Very pleased with the accommodations. Had most everything we needed. Could use some smaller juice cups and smaller bowls😉. But overall the kitchen was stocked well. Loved the views from the balcony and the bed!

Needs TLC
Condo was very clean but in need of updates and repairs. Cracked floor tiles and some with holes. Vertical blinds were missing half the slats. Couch just sinks you right into some holes. Bathroom shower head is missing all its parts the cover etc
The elevator and the boardwalk to the beach at the complex need major repairs. But the beach and view from balcony are fabulous. Beach chairs and umbrella that come with unit is a major plus!
.
Great view. Condo needs some fixing bathroom needs flooring replaced with vinyl flooring and find wh
Loved view of condo needs some work flooring in bathroom needs to be replaced. Put in vinyl flooring and find out what is making bathroom smell like wet clothes. Some tile in hallway and kitchen needs replacing. Refrigerator has slow leak at bottom right not sure what is from.
Bed sleeps very well
The unit is due for a complete remodel. Beach and location are excellent.

Wife's birthday beach trip
Fantastic beach, uncrowded Beach.
The tiles are cracked and both of us got pieces stuck in our feet. Sink drains super slow in bathroom. Place smelled musty and wet. Ton of construction in area and they start at day break. Parking was a nightmare. Half the condos were empty and there was no parking.
Bed was comfortable. Plenty of room for 2 adults. Nice tv show selection on Roku. Beautiful view of sunrise and sunset. The chairs and umbrellas save a small fortune.
We have been coming to Seagrove Beach with our family and renting large beach homes since 2002. This was our anniversary trip, so it was just the two of and our first condo rental.
First let me give the good:
1. Incredible views from balcony. No way there is a better one.
2. Easy beach access with chairs and umbrella set up daily.
3. Real good shower.
4. Master bed is very comfortable.
5. Check in process very easy.
Now the bad:
1. Condo needs serious updating. Some fresh paint. new flooring in bathroom, new balcony table. and new balcony floor covering would make this property really pop.
2. Parking is a challenge if you have a pickup truck.
3. Was not impressed with the TV set up at all. Difficult for a sports fan to watch NFL games.
Overall, I gave it a 5, but that was almost totally about the outstanding views from the balcony. I'd love to own this condo to live in. I'd give it a total makeover and live happily ever after.
The unit faces beautiful gulf. Enjoyed watching sunsets and sun rises.
The unit came with beach chairs and umbrella was a bonus!! The unit was very clean and comfortable bed. Communication with the owner was very fast and accommodating. The first morning, the coffee maker wasn’t working, within a few hours they provided a brand new coffee maker. Thank you so much !!! The condo is located close to seaside and many other restaurants.
We will definitely come back for another vacation!!
This is a great value property with an unbeatable location. Although it is only one bedroom, we were able to sleep two adults and two children just fine. They one bathroom is a challenge but we knew that when we rented it. The property itself has very easy access to the beach and the chair service is great. The chairs are always set up each day and the umbrella has a tag with your room number on it so they are easy to find. There is an elevator up to the third-floor but be warned that it is older, hot, and slow. The pool area was clean and uncrowded. The only reason that we didn’t give this property five stars is that it does need a few simple repairs. The vertical blinds over the sliding glass doors to the balcony are damaged and about 1/3 of the blinds are missing. This limits privacy. It should be a simple thing to replace. Also, the fridge ice maker went out when we arrived. It wasn’t fixed during our stay but the property manager was fast to respond to our concerns. Again, a great value overall!
Beds were so comfortable, AC was cold, brand new appliances that worked easily, and supremely easy check in/out process. It’s right off the beach, a short walk through the sand. We plan to go again next year!
While there was nothing "wrong" with this unit (although the disposal did stop working during our sty); it does need a little sprucing up based on the cost of the unit. I have stayed at much nicer units for less money in the same area. On the balcony, the concrete flooring would be preferable to that rug; and a different outdoor table since this one had so much rust on it. The indoor furniture was nice and the bed was very comfortable; but please upgrade the paper products that you provide. Appliances were all nice; and we loved having an ice maker!!
Please leave some written instructions for how to use the TV for us older people who are not savvy with technology/newer TV viewing methods. Loved having "beach chair service". Spruce up/repair your baseboards for an overall nicer appearance. Just a little TLC will go a long way!!
Wife and I love our getaways to this area of 3OA. Booked this for a last minute babymoon and we couldn't have enjoyed our time anymore. Unit was as described and clean and on a great location. Loved that chairs and umbrella was included in our stay. It's an older property and might could use a little love but no real complaints. Definitely would visit again.
Overall, we had a wonderful stay; being beachfront is the way to go! The condo was nice but there are a few things that need attention. The door to the condo itself is very hard to close; you have to slam it for it work. Also, the bathroom door going into the master bedroom does not work; you can punch it closed but it will not latch. The condo is older, but the view is AMAZING. Parking sucks! The spots are incredibly tiny!

Good location
Noisy people above us…stomping on the floor, bouncing balls on the floor…hard to get peace and quiet.
Unit was dated and celing damage was poorly repaired. Molding around floor/doors very poor; half finished.
Great beach views. Comfortable bed.
Plumbing in parking area bursted by vehicle caused raw sewage leak ; splashing onto cars and trucks was not repaired for 2 days. Should have been repaired much faster. Disgusting.
Price was very expensive for 4 nights .
Overall score C-
Overall, the property is nice and in a quiet area. It is a little far from town but drivable. Beach access is great. There are a few minor repairs that need to be completed, i.e. there are missing blind slats, some of the molding in the bathroom is falling apart. Overall, it is nice.
