Room was clean and everything was in order and very nice. It had a great view of the beach. We had a great time and will be looking forward to our next stay.
This vacation was amazing. We stayed for 7 days in the most beautiful apartment. The view of the beach from the balcony was gorgeous! We loved the convenience of being steps from the beach, or going to one of the many pools when sick of the sand. The only part of our stay that wasn't great was the wait time for the elevators.
The property was clean and decorated so cute. The view from the balcony was amazing. We had a great time staying here.

Thank you for your review!
We’re thrilled to hear your family had a wonderful vacation and enjoyed the beautiful, clean condo and its great location. We would be delighted to welcome you back for another stay!
Beach view was amazing. The condo itself was fantastic. But there was a ridiculous wait at any of their elevators and other guests told me it is that way for years. Also the parking is a little tedious. The pools were freezing cold. And alot of kids in the hot tub. But seemed very family friendly.

Upon check in the employees were friendly and although it was a wait at the elevator, our room was a beautiful sight. My children loved their room and the balcony was awesome.

Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location
The condo was beautiful. We came down for our honeymoon. The bad, we had to sleep on opposite sides of the bed because there was two separate toppers for a king plus size bed. So, there is a dip in the center of the bed. Also, the shade in the center window needs to be replaced as there is nothing there. Welcome sunrise . For a penthouse price, was not a penthouse feel. Have stayed at tidewater many times. The non penthouse rooms were better IMO.
