We loved the property and it’s so close to everything in Seaside. The private beach was also lovely and so close to the house. You can see the ocean but there is trees blocking a full view. Would definitely stay here again!

Our Stay at Love Me Tender
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit is in a perfect location, steps from the beach and the center of Seaside with its shops and restaurants. The decor is lovely and the screened in deck is a perfect space. The management is very responsive, quickly answering any requests . That being said, prior to our stay the remote operating shades should have been charged. One was broken and we had to charge several, which was difficult to reach without a step ladder. We loved our stay but the one negative is the refrigerator. It was set at 2 and for the first several days all was fine, but after that everything started freezing. We had to throw out a dozen eggs, hummus, limes even after turning it down to 1.

Annual Fall Trip to Seaside
We had an amazing week in this amazing cottage. We usually stay in an oceanfront cottage but we booked late and they were all reserved. The property was perfectly appointed, plenty of space, very clean, and super cozy! The street noise from kids was a bit loud but it was fall break for many. We will return - thank you!!!

Great location
Great location and quick access to the beach. The condo was a dream. The only let down I would say were the the trees obstructing the view. If they were trimmed down a bit it, it would provide a larger view of the gulf. Nonetheless it was a great place !

Alot of work for a family place but was nice
Place was beautiful but was a few minor problems like sometimes the electric blinds would work sometimes not so when we finally got them down in certain areas of the house we would just leave them down. Alot of stairs between where you stay and the beach so if you got alot of stuff to carry back and forth you will get a work out in but other than that a nice place

10 years in Seaside
This was our 10th year to Seaside. Location was absolutely perfect! And home was the right side for me and my husband. Only complaint was the refrigerator was quite loud, but it was a minor annoyance and was overruled by how great the property was generally.

Amazing location
This is a very clean unit, light, airy & comfortable. We loved how the space lived & that we could see the ocean. The location is amazing as advertised. The management company generously let us check in several hours early & we appreciated that. My husband & I rented the downstairs unit last year & after hearing the noise from the guests upstairs, decided to rent up this year hoping the noise factor would be decreased or diminished….but not so. We could hear the parents & young baby like they were down the hall, not of their own fault. We also felt like we had to tip toe around not to bother them. What guests need to know is you probably wont find a rental this nice beach-side in Seaside for this rate, the trade off is you share a building with potential other guests with only locked door at the stairs between you. The upstairs unit has access to the washer & dryer & a partial ocean view, the downstairs has an outdoor shower on the porch we truly missed this year. We will splurge next year on a single unit as the noise was not worth the rental savings to us. Im still giving this rental 5 stars because the listing does disclose that this property is actually 2 units. Other details that did not affect our stay much were ice maker was not functional upon arrival even tho I had addressed with mgmt co prior & was told it had been repaired. Ceiling fan is on same frequency as downstairs unit so fan would suddenly be on high & we never located a remote to adjust fan for ourselves.

Home away from Home
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall fabulous property. Super clean upon arrival and ready early. The ice maker didn’t work but the rental agency responded and agreed to reimburse us for ice. It was 4th of July so I’m sure all the appliance repair co were closed or super busy. The location is amazing and you just can’t beat it. The only things I’d add to this unit are a broom, a laundry basket & sometime or bench or shelf for down stairs to lay things on when doing laundry. Other than that the house is perfect!! Would love to stay again.

Perfect Beach Getaway
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I absolutely LOVED this rental. The proximity to the beach and downtown seaside was PERFECTION (right across from Black Bear Bread Co and steps to East Ruskin Pavilion). We had friends staying in Watercolor which was only a short 10-minute walk or 3-minute drive to meet up. Having access to the bikes was also super fun to ride around! We ate out for most meals, but the kitchen had all the basics in case you wanted to cook something - however keep in mind the fridge is a small counter height size. The cherry on top of this place - it was dog friendly and our pup enjoyed snoozes on the screened-in porch. Our ONLY feedback would be to add some permanent towel hooks in the bathroom and porch (for beach towels); as well as some blinds or plantation shutters for the bathroom for some more privacy (it has some window pass-throughs into the stairwell where our next door neighbors could most definitely see into the shower so we hung up a towel). The styling and design of the space was upscale, yet cozy. The bed was so comfortable - we would actually love to know the mattress brand :) Overall - fantastic stay with communicative rental company.

Awesome place!
Location is fantastic. Home is very well appointed. Bed was amazingly comfortable. I wish it did have a little better freezer for ice and ice cream. Also, better privacy in the bathroom. You feel a little exposed to your neighbors. But not enough to deduct a star.

Beautiful just like the photos, close to the beach, shopping and restaurants.
We had a great stay in your lovely condo. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. A few things that I would do differently for those who stay longer than 3-4 days, would be to provide additional towels. We weren’t allowed to wash them per the rules of the condo, so it felt unclean to use the same towel for a week. I did have my beach towels, but those were used daily at the beach. I’d also supply more than 2 rolls of toilet paper as we were 4 in the unit for a week, and thankfully I brought extra thinking that we would run out. I few FYIs, the coffee pot lid is melted and the refrigerator freezes on the top shelf. No big deal for us, though. All in all, we had a great time and the location was excellent!

Great property, Great location
My daughter and I loved the property and the location. My 2 things I disliked, they did not have an ice maker because the fridge is the size of what you put in a college dorm (needs a full size fridge for the cost of the property). We had to run across the street to the coffee place to get ice each day. Also, it came with a coffee maker, but no filters or coffee provided. That was a first for me. Overall - great place!

An amazing space. Enjoy, we definitely did!
We rented the Love Me Tender unit, on Nov.13-19, 2022, for our 29th anniversary. Even though the entrance and one parking space are on the 30A side you barely hear or notice the traffic. The Seaside Central Square location is only a short walk down or across the street for groceries, shopping, coffee/pastries, toy and gift shops, book store, steak, tacos, pizza, seafood, music, bars, art galleries, clothing boutiques, breakfast, lunch and dinner at sunset, even ice cream and fudge shops. This upstairs unit was recently redesigned and updated with high end designer accessories. From top to bottom the space has all new furniture, modern accessories, throws and pillows throughout. The unit is exceptionally clean; it has a huge fan in the living room (not the bedroom); one of our favorite spots is the amazing screened in porch on the beach side, great for relaxing drinks, napping or reading a good book. Although there is another unit between this one and the beach you can still enjoy, see and hear the beach sounds. Each evening we walked the near by private boardwalk (code) to watch the sunset on the beach — just gorgeous! The well stocked kitchen with mini fridge has everything a small family of four could possibly need. The bedroom has a comfy king size bed with a big selection of pillows, extra linens (winter), a large TV, sitting chair, closet(bring hangers) and dresser. The bathroom has a spacious 2 head walk in shower, vanity with new towels for all (bring Command hooks). Overall a very well designed space for two or more with a firm living room couch (pull out bed?) and two sitting chairs that hold endless pillows and throws. We were obviously the first guests to arrive after a major renovation so there were a few cliches that were quickly addressed by Exclusive 30A Guest Service maintenance crews. Lauren was very friendly, responsive and brought us the parking and pool passes, codes, wrist bands, etc. The informational cottage binder was being updated at the time. Should you have any concerns call before 5pm, otherwise there is no response until the next day. Take care as the steep stair entrance (requires shoes off) may need a baby gate for smaller children that can walk. Other than the minor concerns, we would definitely return to Love Me Tender in the future, it's just an amazing space in one of the best Seaside locations. It's a perfect vacation spot for a small family or couple celebrating their anniversary. Enjoy, we definitely did!
