3 days agoWe loved the rental!! Right on the beach, plenty of room, super comfortable beds and lots of kitchen amenities. The only downfall was that the fire pits did not work (after much discussion back and forth to try and troubleshoot) and the freezer did not freeze well at all. Otherwise, we were happy with the house and would stay again!

5 days agoGreat place, great view, great location! But very dated with old furniture and fixtures,
Hasn’t been touched in 20 years. View makes up for this,
But….
Beach chairs and umbrellas are not included with condo!
Parking is not included with condo so have to pay for parking.
Dishwasher packets not included.
No extra toilet paper.
Don’t rent from Southern Vacation Rentals. Communication is terrible. No one will even tell you their name or location.
They send many texts from many different numbers asking for information already provided. There is no teamwork and no one knows what the other person has done.
When you ask them for something….they just say the owner doesn’t provide this for the condo.
Feel like they are just trying to wring every last dollar out of you. Won’t be staying with them again.

6 days agoBe warned when booking! They don’t make this information public prior to booking!! The place has gorgeous large windows around the whole condo which is gorgeous, but makes it very hot inside the whole place. They also have a lock on the thermostat that doesn’t allow you to go under 70 degrees. They claim it’s due to past problems with the hvac system triggering a shut off. For the price of the stay, they need to pay to properly maintenance the system then. It was uncomfortably HOT!! We stayed in October when it was 75 degrees out. I can’t imagine what this place would feel like in July at 98 out. We reached out and they told us they weren’t doing anything about it and would not refund our stay to let us go find somewhere else due to it not being a “liability concern”. They left out pertinent information about the rental. Would not recommend.

1 week agoOverall, a condo in a good location with a great view. Room was adequately renovated/updated and clean. The unit is in a beach-front condominium complex at the end of a hallway. Beach access is nearby, and there is plenty of parking in the complex. The unit number was not clearly marked on or near the door.
Always received prompt communication, but some pre-arrival info was incorrect. Description states standard and Keurig coffee makers available but only a Keurig was. The door code was provided one week in advance with multiple reminder emails . This was thorough and helpful communication, but upon arrival, the 4-digit door code didn't work. Spoke with someone on the phone and 20 minutes later we received a working 6-digit code.
Plenty of towels but was only provided one roll of toilet paper per bathroom. Cheap considering the cost of the unit. Small packets of salt, pepper, coffee creamer, etc. would have been nice. 9AM is an early check-out time compared to similar condos.
