Excellent property

The property was great and the location was amazing! The only negative had zero to do with property and more to do with seaside… They high school teenagers are out of control drinking, fighting, stealing bikes and music blaring all night… Seaside did implement 7:00pm curfew last night but probably needs it both the week before and after Memorial Day… However, the property was amazing and the communication with property management was easy and fast! I highly recommend this house!

Nice place but not secure from other unit

This is a nicely decorated, well equipped and comfortable unit. It is also conveniently located to downtown Seaside and a beach access. However, it should be disclosed in the description that there is no door to secure the upstairs living area. The downstairs unit has a door with a deadbolt but the upstairs unit is more like a loft area that anyone in the house could access via the stairs. The bathroom also has openings to the stairwell that is only covered with free hanging blinds. Thankfully the people below us respected our area and there was no issue. This would work great for two groups that know one another well but should not be booked as two separate units.

Annual Fall Trip to Seaside

We had an amazing week in this amazing cottage. We usually stay in an oceanfront cottage but we booked late and they were all reserved. The property was perfectly appointed, plenty of space, very clean, and super cozy! The street noise from kids was a bit loud but it was fall break for many. We will return - thank you!!!

Great location and quick access to the beach. The condo was a dream. The only let down I would say were the the trees obstructing the view. If they were trimmed down a bit it, it would provide a larger view of the gulf. Nonetheless it was a great place !

Alot of work for a family place but was nice

Place was beautiful but was a few minor problems like sometimes the electric blinds would work sometimes not so when we finally got them down in certain areas of the house we would just leave them down. Alot of stairs between where you stay and the beach so if you got alot of stuff to carry back and forth you will get a work out in but other than that a nice place

This was our 10th year to Seaside. Location was absolutely perfect! And home was the right side for me and my husband. Only complaint was the refrigerator was quite loud, but it was a minor annoyance and was overruled by how great the property was generally.

Amazing location

This is a very clean unit, light, airy & comfortable. We loved how the space lived & that we could see the ocean. The location is amazing as advertised. The management company generously let us check in several hours early & we appreciated that. My husband & I rented the downstairs unit last year & after hearing the noise from the guests upstairs, decided to rent up this year hoping the noise factor would be decreased or diminished….but not so. We could hear the parents & young baby like they were down the hall, not of their own fault. We also felt like we had to tip toe around not to bother them. What guests need to know is you probably wont find a rental this nice beach-side in Seaside for this rate, the trade off is you share a building with potential other guests with only locked door at the stairs between you. The upstairs unit has access to the washer & dryer & a partial ocean view, the downstairs has an outdoor shower on the porch we truly missed this year. We will splurge next year on a single unit as the noise was not worth the rental savings to us. Im still giving this rental 5 stars because the listing does disclose that this property is actually 2 units. Other details that did not affect our stay much were ice maker was not functional upon arrival even tho I had addressed with mgmt co prior & was told it had been repaired. Ceiling fan is on same frequency as downstairs unit so fan would suddenly be on high & we never located a remote to adjust fan for ourselves.

Beautiful just like the photos, close to the beach, shopping and restaurants.

We had a great stay in your lovely condo. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. A few things that I would do differently for those who stay longer than 3-4 days, would be to provide additional towels. We weren’t allowed to wash them per the rules of the condo, so it felt unclean to use the same towel for a week. I did have my beach towels, but those were used daily at the beach. I’d also supply more than 2 rolls of toilet paper as we were 4 in the unit for a week, and thankfully I brought extra thinking that we would run out. I few FYIs, the coffee pot lid is melted and the refrigerator freezes on the top shelf. No big deal for us, though. All in all, we had a great time and the location was excellent!

Great property, Great location

My daughter and I loved the property and the location. My 2 things I disliked, they did not have an ice maker because the fridge is the size of what you put in a college dorm (needs a full size fridge for the cost of the property). We had to run across the street to the coffee place to get ice each day. Also, it came with a coffee maker, but no filters or coffee provided. That was a first for me. Overall - great place!

An amazing space. Enjoy, we definitely did!

We rented the Love Me Tender unit, on Nov.13-19, 2022, for our 29th anniversary. Even though the entrance and one parking space are on the 30A side you barely hear or notice the traffic. The Seaside Central Square location is only a short walk down or across the street for groceries, shopping, coffee/pastries, toy and gift shops, book store, steak, tacos, pizza, seafood, music, bars, art galleries, clothing boutiques, breakfast, lunch and dinner at sunset, even ice cream and fudge shops. This upstairs unit was recently redesigned and updated with high end designer accessories. From top to bottom the space has all new furniture, modern accessories, throws and pillows throughout. The unit is exceptionally clean; it has a huge fan in the living room (not the bedroom); one of our favorite spots is the amazing screened in porch on the beach side, great for relaxing drinks, napping or reading a good book. Although there is another unit between this one and the beach you can still enjoy, see and hear the beach sounds. Each evening we walked the near by private boardwalk (code) to watch the sunset on the beach — just gorgeous! The well stocked kitchen with mini fridge has everything a small family of four could possibly need. The bedroom has a comfy king size bed with a big selection of pillows, extra linens (winter), a large TV, sitting chair, closet(bring hangers) and dresser. The bathroom has a spacious 2 head walk in shower, vanity with new towels for all (bring Command hooks). Overall a very well designed space for two or more with a firm living room couch (pull out bed?) and two sitting chairs that hold endless pillows and throws. We were obviously the first guests to arrive after a major renovation so there were a few cliches that were quickly addressed by Exclusive 30A Guest Service maintenance crews. Lauren was very friendly, responsive and brought us the parking and pool passes, codes, wrist bands, etc. The informational cottage binder was being updated at the time. Should you have any concerns call before 5pm, otherwise there is no response until the next day. Take care as the steep stair entrance (requires shoes off) may need a baby gate for smaller children that can walk. Other than the minor concerns, we would definitely return to Love Me Tender in the future, it's just an amazing space in one of the best Seaside locations. It's a perfect vacation spot for a small family or couple celebrating their anniversary. Enjoy, we definitely did!

Seaside area fantastic! This location is mere steps to beach access as well as the shopping circle and airstream food vendors and other restaurants. Loved everything about it . Suggestion is it needs more washcloths and hand towels in bathroom, has plenty of bath towels. Needs a Keurig. Needs some beach chairs(I thought that was in listing but could be wrong). Top of kitchen light, ceiling fan, ceiling rafters need dusted and wiped down. Great location and enjoyed very much!
