The property is across from Long Sands Beach in York, ME. We have stayed here before and love the location. The property is comfortable and has everything you need. We plan on coming back again to enjoy this property. It has kind of become our home in Maine.

Thank you so much for the wonderful 5-star review! We absolutely love hearing that Sea Rose has become your “home in Maine.” There truly is no better compliment. 💙
We’re thrilled that you continue to enjoy the comfort of the condo and, of course, that incredible location just across from beautiful Long Sands Beach. It means so much to us when guests return year after year and make a Salt & Shine property part of their Maine traditions.
We loved welcoming you back and look forward to seeing you again for another wonderful stay in York!

This property is perfect as we gathered for our annual family weekend. The house is spacious, clean and located in a perfect part of York. Contact with the rental agency made booking and staying very easy to navigate. We are already looking ahead to next year.

Great spot to be in the middle of it all!
The spot behind liquid dreams is ideal for anyone who wants to be at the heart of summer fun in York!
The location is great. Parking could be better. Too many throw pillows. It wasn't super clean when we arrived. The floors were very sandy and one of beds had sand in it which made me question if the linens were changed. I hesitated in writing a review because I didn't want to seem ungrateful. We love love love the location, However, if you guys are paying for a cleaning service, wouldn't you want to know if they're doing a good job? Over all, the location made us want to rent again next year. So we are :)

Hi Michelle,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback following your stay at Sea Rose. We truly appreciate your kind words about the location, your five-star rating, and, most importantly, that you enjoyed your time in York enough to plan another stay with us next year. We would absolutely love to welcome you back!
We also want to thank you for being candid about the cleanliness concerns you experienced upon arrival. Please never hesitate to bring something like this to our attention during your stay. You are not being ungrateful or difficult by letting us know when something does not feel right. In fact, we want to know so that we have the opportunity to address it for you right away.
Our housekeeping teams follow established CDC and StaySafe cleaning and sanitation guidelines, and fresh linens are provided and beds are remade as part of every turnover. We completely understand, however, how finding sand in a bed could make you question whether the linens had been changed, and we are very sorry that this was your first impression.
Being so close to the beach, sand certainly has a way of finding itself just about everywhere, but sandy floors and a bed that did not feel freshly prepared are not how we want a guest to arrive at one of our homes. Had we known during your stay, we would have immediately sent a member of our housekeeping team back to the property to inspect the areas of concern, re-clean the floors, and remake the bed with another fresh set of linens so that you could feel completely comfortable and confident in the home.
We never want a guest to spend their vacation wondering whether they should say something. Our team is here throughout your stay specifically so that if something was overlooked or simply needs additional attention, we have the opportunity to make it right while you are still here to enjoy the difference.
We will also be sharing your feedback directly with the housekeeping team responsible for the turnover so that we can review what may have happened and reinforce our quality-control expectations moving forward. Feedback like yours is genuinely valuable to us because it helps us hold ourselves and our service partners to the standard our guests and homeowners expect.
We have also made note of your comments regarding the parking and number of throw pillows, as those details are helpful for us and the homeowners to consider as we continually evaluate the guest experience at Sea Rose.
Thank you again, Michelle, for giving us the opportunity to hear your concerns and improve. We especially appreciate the thoughtful way you shared them. We are so happy that you loved the location and enjoyed your stay overall, and it means a great deal to know that you are already planning to return next year.
Next time, please know that if anything does not feel right when you arrive, big or small, reach out to us right away. We would much rather have the opportunity to fix something in the moment than learn afterward that you spent even a portion of your vacation feeling unsure.
We look forward to welcoming you back to Sea Rose and giving you an even better experience next time!
Warmly,
Hannah McLaughlin

Can’t beat the location
So close to the beach! Can’t beat it the location . Perfect for our family can’t wait to return next year again.
Spent a three day rainy cool weekend in York. Was happy to be so close to the beach to take advantage of walks between rain. The house was cozy and had space for us to play cards and relax when inside.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're so glad to hear you made the most of your weekend in York, even with the rainy weather. There's nothing like a peaceful beach walk between showers and cozy time inside with cards and good company. We hope to welcome you back for sunnier skies next time!
The condo is very nice. Nice and roomy for six adults. All the neighbors are awesome and very friendly! Nice and close to the beach!

Thank you for the great review! We're so glad to hear that the condo was roomy and comfortable for your group and that you enjoyed the friendly neighbors. It’s wonderful to know you appreciated the proximity to the beach as well. We hope you had a fantastic stay and look forward to hosting you again!
We had a wonderful time in the cottage. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The ocean was across the street, and it was close to many great restaurants. I highly recommend York 54 for pizza type food if you want quick and easy takeout. It was probably the best pizza and beet salad we've had.
Thank you for a great stay,

Hi Congdon Family,
You were such terrific guests and we are so glad that you had a wonderful time at Sea Rose Condo! We look forward to hosting you again so you can enjoy a delicious pizza on the beach again - come back any time!
We loved our stay at the Sea Rose condo. It was exactly as pictured and had everything we needed for our 10 days at the beach. Everything was clean and all that we needed was provided. We lucked out with the weather. Nearly every day was a beach day. Watching the surf school give lessons to young surfers was delightful. We will be back.

Location was perfect. Had several issues with toilet. Property says parking for 2 but only 2 if really small cars. House was very comfortable for my family and I. We enjoyed our vacation. Thank you
We enjoyed our long weekend staying at this condo. It was a block away from the beach. The place had all the amenities you would look for in a getaway rental.
Communication with the hosts was great.

The property manager charges an outrageous amount of fees.

Hi Michele,
We're pleased you liked the condo and we sure are glad your boyfriend is OK after his head broke the glass oven door!
To address the fees- those are fees Vrbo charges to travelers. We charge an admin fee and a cleaning fee (standard). All travelers must pay lodging tax and Vrbo charged you an extra fee of $285.00. We do not see any percentage of that number. If you were to book direct with an agency , you would immediately save $285.00! The non- refundable damage protection of $59.00 you purchased through Vrbo, sure did come in handy with your booking! The cost to replace the stove was $687.84.
Thanks for your feedback!
This condo was nothing fancy, but it had everything we needed and was clean. The location could not be better as it was a 5 minute walk to the beach. Overall this is a great place to stay.

Our Stay
Hannah and Danielle were very hospitable to my family and I. I had my elderly parents stay. Location was relevant, the condo was old in need of bathroom renovation, parking was a challenge at times as neighbors were not welcoming. However, the professional promptness of Danielle and Hannah helped to resolve things quickly. In all place was convenient to the beach with high marks for location.
