Great condo
Condo was perfect for our family. We had one small issue with the dish washer and the management company responded right away. Check in was easy. I purposefully booked this one because of the prior reviews of the slow elevators. And we always used the stairs for that reason. All in all great experience

Beautiful condo with a beautiful view
The condo is just as it looks in the pictures. I spent many hours out on the balcony just enjoying the view. It's convenient to everything-food, shopping, entertainment. Or, with their own little restaurant on site, you can get there and not leave until your trip is over. Vacasa was very welcoming and informative. I received several email and phone calls before and during my stay to make sure any questions or concerns I had were addressed. I went in October and the waits at the elevator weren't too bad. I'm sure they would be as bad as other commenter said during busy times of year. I would definitely go back. Did I say the view was awesome?

Room 509 Tidewater
Logistically the room was awesome, 5th floor to utilize the stairs, Tidewater is known to have the worst elevator system, the room is tucked back away from the main walkway for privacy. Downsides of the room, in our 7 years of coming to Tidewater, this room was the only one to have carpet, which is usually a no brainer at the beach, the room always smelled horrible, like a wet dog. The room was filthy throughout with dust, appeared to never have been dusted. The couches were dirty, as well as all the bedding were very thin. I will say Vacasa is very professional and does communicate well, they checked on us a few times. We just wanted to do a fair, honest and transparent review, this room has the potential to be one of the best rooms at Tidewater. I recommend ripping out the carpet, having the housekeepers be more detailed, this room could rent for more afterwards.

Good, but not great
My husband and I along with two teens stayed Thursday thru Sunday. My daughter and her husband came down Friday. They were going to sleep on the pull out sofa bed. It was not usable. Worst pull out sofa ever. I know they are never top quality mattresses, but this one was super thin and you could feel All the metal springs. Otherwise good unit. Had all the necessities and was pretty clean. I liked that the walk to the beach seemed shorter that at some condos. Also, from around 4:30 till around 6, it is almost impossible to catch an elevator.

Elevators
The unit was fine, and the beach was nice. The elevators at this property are completely unacceptable. They actually give out a flyer that says elevator wait times could be up to 30 minutes.

Great Condo!
The location of this unit is perfect-5th floor makes for short elevator rides, but it’s high enough to be able to see the gorgeous view. It was very clean and had everything we needed for the week. Our stay was so relaxing, and we can’t wait to come back again!

Great stay.
Loved the decor and style.When we arrived they said room wasn't ready yet,but I think they just go up and spot check because they texted us it was ready on 15 min.Point being,we dusted and vaccumed.New cushions for balcony are needed,but other than that great place.Elevators are an issue at peak times.We enjoyed it.

Loved everything!!!
The condo was decorated cute it was clean and my family really enjoyed themselves! The elevators do get a little busy but being on the fifth floor he would use the stairs at busy times so it was never a problem... I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to other families!
