We normally stay at another condo near here and access the same beach. The view from the master bedroom was worth the switch of condos. Hope to return soon
People were nice and friendly. Location was very good. Close to beach and pool. Premises were kept clean. Only issues were inside the unit (90), but they were minor. No towel rack or hooks in the main bathroom; fan in that bathroom didn't work; patio door was very hard to open; no umbrella on patio; and no clothes hangers. Everything else was clean and in good shape. Kitchen had everything that we needed. We would stay here again.
Josh was quick to respond and our stay was just great! He let my grandma join us last minute. Waters and beach are gorgeous, so many good food places, nearby too
We did not receive timely check in information and had to call the emergency line to receive it at check in time. The condo smelled like mildew, the floors were sandy and the beds had sand in them. The property manager did come with clean bed linens and vacuumed the floors. The couch cushions were so deformed you almost slid off when you sat down. There was black mildew in the window seals. The location was excellent, but the condo was unclean and very outdated especially for the price point. It was comparable to other updated nicer units in the area.
The unit was as described in the listing. It was clean and came with sheets and towels that could be washed in the washer/dryer in the unit. There was also one roll of toilet paper in each bathroom, one roll of paper towels, one little box of detergent, a couple individual size dishwasher soap, one dish sponge, and a small bottle of dish soap. There were also theee beach chairs (adult sized but sit really low on the ground) and a bucket with some sand toys. The knob on the dryer broke when we were staying there but the property manager offered to get us more towels and sheets as needed, so that was nice. The pool is only a few steps away and the beach is close too. There is a beach service that has an umbrella and two loungers available to rent for about $36 for the whole day, $24 for 4 hours, or $8 for one hour. Overall, it was a great location and we would definitely stay here avain.
This was a decent location for the price- really close to the beach. The main bedroom bed was quite comfortable, always a plus. The downstairs bathroom didn’t appear to have been cleaned and the tv in the living room is quite small. We don’t watch a lot of tv, but it would have been nice to have something larger.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Southbay. The location was great. Convenient to so many shops and restaurants and the beach!! Love the pool and tennis courts! Would definitely stay here again!
It was nice to have close proximity to the pool and to the beach. We were literally in the middle of everything so driving was not a long distance. Would stay here again
