We stayed 4 nights & the Only problem we had was the washing machine could not drain; however, that could be from the previous renters washing sandy clothes/beach towels without shaking the sand off & clogging the drain. We told the property manager & it should be fixed. We would rent this condo again. ##### Amy S. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### DeEdda M. 2 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Granddaughters Beach Trip This condo checked all the boxes for a great beach trip for my 5 & 6 yo granddaughters. They loved the pool and the short walk to the beach was perfect for going back and forth which we did multiple times a day. The kitchen allowed us to eat in for all our meals and enjoyed the high rise table and chairs on the deck. The furnishings were a bit dated but clean. The twin bunk did squeak quit a bit. We would defiantly book this unit again ##### DeEdda M. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### APRIL L. 26 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Underwhelming Cons - Sheets were cheap and scratchy. Pillows were as flat as pancakes. Unable to get the tv remotes to work on either TV. Unit is in serious need of updating all around. Pros: Beach itself was fantastic. Pool looked very clean and well kept. Great location. We have stayed in other units at Sea Colony that were better appointed and updated. ##### APRIL L.
