Very Pleasant Condo
The condo was well equipped and had everything we needed with the exception of a fitted sheet that fit the nice California king bed. Housekeeping tried 3 times to replace the sheets, but all were for regular king. We ended up putting 2 top sheets on the mattress. We were only staying for 3 nights so it became quite comical. During the tropical storm with heavy rain and blowing wind, water ran down the outside door and puddled inside in the hallway. We put towels inside at the base of the door so it was not a problem for us. Other than the short sheets, we would stay here again. Thanks for renting your condo to us, we had a great time.

First beach trip with our 2 year old
This is my third time staying at waters edge and first time bringing our 2 year old. Easy access to the beach and our 2 year old loved the beach. Easy check in/check out process. We loved it.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at this property. We had a few issues with the wifi and the main TV in the living area...but other than that, it was a very nice stay. The private beach was amazing, we also enjoyed the very large pool.

Perfect Beach Lover's Retreat!
I booked this unit based on all the great reviews and it was perfect for my solo, mini-vacation. The unit is spacious for one or two people and is on the corner, so it's extremely quiet. The property is very well maintained and the management company (Vacasa) regularly checked-in with me to ensure I was enjoying my stay. I loved the daily beach service that was included with my rental (two beach chairs and an umbrella). The location of this condo is perfect and is a short drive from a grocery store and restaurants. And of course, the beach is magnificent! I would definitely rent this unit again.

Fair however I will not stay here again
Overall it was ok for a short stay. Very poor cleanliness upon arrival evident by dirty bed linens and shower. Toaster nearly caused an electrical fire. Sandy floors drove me nuts the entire week!

Excellent Place
We absolutely loved staying at Waters Edge. Our condo was so clean when we arrived. The location is perfect and the walk to the beach was short. The pool was beautiful and clean. The only downfall was the pull out couch bed. My kids could feel every spring in the bed, so we put the mattress from the couch bed on the floor and they slept better that way. Everything else was great tho! The location of the condo felt very private and the view was beautiful! Would stay here again for sure!
