Great place with great location

My husband graduated from Columbia Southern University so we came for his graduation. We had several of our kids and 2 grandkids with us and everyone loved it. We enjoyed the pool and the beach as well as conveniently located restaurants. Very clean and comfortable place to stay!

Awful!!!

We had so many issues! Where to begin! I reached out almost immediately to VACASA which is who the home is through. They did nothing. And I still have yet to hear back! We came in and noticed immediately MOLD in the vents and on the outside of. The stairs to the loft had a broken handrail which made us unsafe for my children! The house was dirty every where! My 4 year old found a container of ZYN. The fridge was nasty, cabinets falling apart, dishes nasty, table dirty, floor dirty, shower had pubes in it! We also found mold in the bathroom, the visitor pass was nowhere to be found and when I reached out still never heard anything! We also found glass on the floor that my 8 year old stepped on and bled everywhere. The balcony posts had Walmart bags strung around the wood because it was broken and that’s how it was marked! I have a special needs child with numerous health issues, developmental issues, and much more , and these all made me so uneasy staying here. We ended up leaving a day early because I wasn’t comfortable there anymore for him. I also have a son with asthma and the MOLD was never made a priority!!! I sure hope to get a partial, if not full refund.

Not a bad little complex. This unit could use some updating. The stairs in the unit are especially dangerous and hard to use. Worked out just fine for our group.

Beautiful home

The condo wasn’t clean yo my liking. I contacted the owner and someone from the cleaning team contacted me the same day to see if we could get it resolved. I declined because we ended up cleaning it ourselves. Other than that beautiful neighborhood and short walk to the beach.

My stay

It was incredibly hard to get in touch with Vacasa through the whole trip. We were told 3 parking spots as it’s listed for there to only be 2 and then the representative saying “there is three, but oh wait it’s only 2.” We had to wait after driving all day due to the house/condo to not be fully prepared with people cleaning. Taking almost and hour and a half. The dryer was broken and they said they’d have it fixed but wasn’t fixed until almost the end of the trip. And to add the cherry on top the reps basically said “sorry good luck” when told all these things. Overall it’s not a bad property, however the management is absolutely horrendous and I would not ever recomend Vacasa ever again.
