Great Vacay Condo!!

This is a great condo for a family! It is right on the beach and has a large pool. You can rent chairs/umbrellas or bring your own for the beach. Sit on the large back balcony in the evening and enjoy listening to the waves or the front balcony off the master to watch the sunset. Great end unit with lots of windows!! We had a great time!

Great Last Minute Trip

Location is good, pool & beach access are great! Management company was easy to work with. Needs a deep clean & a new coat of paint. It needs to be updated overall but everything works! Cleaning could use some improvement - excessive sand on the poolside balcony, hair & sand in drawers, makeup on the shower curtain. Only one elevator for the building but it moves pretty quickly. It is a bit crazy during check-in time - the 3-5 window is not enough time.

Family Vacation

Great location!! Condo was spacious and fit our needs. Only a couple things could use some improvement....the dryer does not dry very well at all even with very few towels in a load. That becomes an issue when you have 8 people using bath towels and beach towels and having to use a key instead of a keyless entry is very inconvenient. If not changed then the lock needs changed it is very hard to get to work. Overall a great family place to stay!!

Details, details, details

This condo is in a great location. It has a lot of wear and tear. The bathroom vanity is delaminating, the walls are dusty, the ceilings are dirty around the vents. Empty nails in the walls where pictures should be hanging. Lower end appliances- The dryer took over 3 hours to dry a small load of towels. The biggest complaint of the adults in my party was the miniature commodes. All the adults in my group are over 5'8". They were fine for kids, not so much on adults. 2 of the 3 commodes were running continuously when we arrived, I informed the management company of this and someone arrived with in a couple of hours to fix them. That was great. My family rented several units in this building. Compared to all of the others our was the least favorable. I won't stay in this unit again.

Needs some TLC Desperately

We enjoyed our stay and had no significant issues. We love OceanHouse properties! Unfortunately, this condo is in desperate need of some TLC. For this price point, I’d expect more than a condo that has piecemeal updates (including a bag of open grout in the master closet) and obvious repairs that are needed. Light fixtures are an electrical hazard in the bathroom/shower area since they are exposed without a covering. Obvious water damage along the baseboards (maybe from Sally or Zeta) that needs attention along with a paint job. The door hinge has broken and punched a hole in the wall. The sheets had sand in them BEFORE we slept in the bed. The condo could use a deep cleaning. The dryer takes 3 cycles before clothes are even close to being dry. The fire alarm in the entrance hallway is detached from the ceiling. The A/C vent wouldn’t close in the bedroom overlooking the ocean. There seemed to be some pictures/art missing since the nails/hanging hooks were exposed. Since it rained all week, a smart tv would have been nice! I will say that if you have small kids, this condo works because there’s not much a little kiddo could destroy. We also left some baby proofing plug covers! If you’re staying here or choose to stay here, there’s one ugly fish decoration to be on the lookout for as that thing will stay in your nightmares! Ha! We won’t stay in this particular condo again, but we will stay at OceanHouse again. We thought Poole Associates were easy to rent from and work with.

Friends vacation no kids!

Absolutely amazing! View was to die for on the balcony and 20 feet out, I was sitting under my umbrella on the beach. Kitchen had everything plus big pots for fresh shrimp. Lots of space if you did wanna take your littles. 3 bathrooms definitely a plus if we had kids with us. Master bathroom an bedroom were super big! Only thing I would add is blackout curtains for the one window in the master bedroom. Great place to stay!
