Perfect beach getaway

We’ve previously stayed in other units in this complex. The views and the beach access are why we keep coming back. I was very impressed with the prompt communication with the property management company.

Sister vacation!

This property was exactly as presented on -line. It was very clean, and had all the necessary amenities. The property manager and staff were extremely accommodating. The view was a million dollar view. We enjoyed our stay, and most likely will stay there again.

Beautiful View

View was perfect. Place was clean. Great stay. Only complaint was the shower. I’m tall and I would shower in the dark because the window didn’t have a blind or curtain and overlooked the street. Otherwise, it was a great and quiet stay.

Perfect

We were their for our nieces wedding. We both wanted on the beach and this place was perfect. Exactly as pictured. Very clean and stocked with a must for me a coffee maker which I enjoyed coffee right outside our door in the early morning watching the waves. Very quiet around us at night. Very nice “neighbors” also. We stayed 4 nights and everywhere we wanted to go was a very short distance away. Highly recommend

Convenient

On beach location makes beaching it incredibly simple. Was nice to have our dog. Provided us with everything we needed. There is enough businesses within a short distance, allowing you to not have to travel off island, avoiding majority of traffic. Property Manager was very communicative and helpful.

Awesome location and view

We really liked that it was right on the ocean, just steps from the beach, with such a gorgeous view from both bedroom and living room. (Blinds in bedroom need to be replaced! Hard to open and close). The place could use a little bit of updating - lots of miscellaneous junk/stuff laying around and in drawers, closet doors are ready to fall apart, fridge was very rusty looking, beach umbrellas were broken, bathroom faucet drain was open, etc. Plus the listing said there was a dishwasher. I knew there was not one because of other reviews so no big deal but they made sure to give you the dishwasher pods! Lol. TV was tricky but the on-site manager was very prompt in helping us.

Great location and view from porch.

The location and property is great, so close to beach and water. The apartment is well equipped and very clean. The bathroom sink needs a stopper and faucet strainer cleaned or replaced. People need to be aware of the 14 steps to climb to reach the apartment. They also need to be aware that the advertised price ends up being almost twice that much.

Shell Cove #8

Property needs some attention and updating. Towels were worn and smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The faucet in bathroom sprays all over you when it’s turned on. Over all not bad for a short stay. Great beach location.

Five stars really has to impress me.

This is my second stay. The pet friendly aspect was why I originally chose. Any issues were resolved quickly the first stay, and had none this year. It may be time to upgrade the fridge, as a few times it sounded like it wanted to take off. Also, the bathroom sink has no stopper which isn’t a problem for me, but I’d hate for someone to lose a wedding ring due to the lack of a $20 repair.

Let's go to the Beach!

Love, Love, Love this location! Cute, some minor annoyances (toilet flapper needs replacing, a small vac would have been a game changer to clean up the sand we felt we were always dragging in.) This unit desperately needs updated pillows in the bedroom & at least a shower mat for the bathroom. Property manager was SUPER responsive and would happily rent from them again. That being said, location, location, location..... WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!!

Perfect Beach Stay!!

A stones-throw away from the beach with a balcony view and large ocean facing windows made the day perfect whether we were inside or out. Amazing sunset pictures! Very clean and well supplied. No smelly odors made it great for us. Easy access to shopping and dining. When we had a problem the agency was on the spot in 30 minutes to fix it!! The most relaxing vaca we have had in a long time. Highly reccommended!
