Recent Crystal Coast vacation rental reviews

Overall this unit has potential--walkable to the beach with private beach access, community amenities like tennis courts and a pool, and conveniently located on the island; however, the condo itself felt unfinished in ways and had an usual layout. There was painter's tape left around the inside of the door to the unit and at least one area where there was exposed/loose wires. The kitchen was...unusual...as the utensil drawer couldn't be opened without opening the oven door, and similarly the dishwasher was completely unable to be fully opened due to the position of the oven door (even if the oven door was opened). Moreover, bedroom outlets were often hidden behind furniture and unable to be accessed without moving things around. Based on the current state of the unit, I wouldn't be immediately compelled to book again; however, I think if some strategic improvements this unit could be really nice.

Location, fair pricing. Great setup for pets if managed properly.

Great location in a very comfortable condo. A repeat visit--we'll be back again.
