Watercrest is in a great location for us. It is a little slower paced and not as crowded on the east end of PCB. The facility is great for us and the grandkids.
Response from VrboOwner on 28 September 2026
Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re glad Watercrest was such a great fit for you and your family. The quieter pace on the east end of PCB can be such a nice change of scenery, especially when you’re traveling with the grandkids. It sounds like you found a spot where everyone could relax, enjoy the beach, and make some great family memories.
We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us, and we’d love to have you and the family back for another getaway! ️

The property was just steps to the beach. The condo had everything we needed for our stay including beach toys, chairs, floats, etc. The property was in close proximity to reataurants, groceries, activities and more.

Thank you for the lovely review! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed the convenient beach access and that the condo was well-stocked with everything you needed. It's great that the location made it easy to enjoy nearby restaurants and activities too. We'd love to welcome you back for another stay!
This was our second year in a row staying in this unit for spring break. We love the condo amenities & the unit itself is fantastic for families. We slept very comfortably & LOVE the fact that the unit was our home away from home for a week. With a full kitchen, we were able to cook all week. The living space is large enough to accommodate the entire family inside & out! The oversized balcony is perfect for kids to give them enough space to enjoy outside without being crammed or it feeling unsafe. Super glad we chose to stay here again!

Parking
Enjoyed the property. Was a snafu on the parking which was quickly resolved. Feel that the exorbitant fee for parking (2 vehicles) should have been disclosed prior to booking.

Wow!!! I can’t say enough great things about our condo at Watercrest! It wax absolutely stunning. There were so many little details that they made special. It was decorated absolutely gorgeous! A fully stocked kitchen. Some condos leave you 4 utensils, but they didn’t skimp on anything in this condo! The balcony was a big a room. I just can’t say enough great things about this condo. We’ve stayed in several and this was by far the best!!! Will definitely be getting this one again next Summer.

Thank you for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear you love The Crescent and enjoyed the beautifully decorated, comfortable condo with easy beach access. We appreciate your thoughtful suggestion about adding umbrellas for the lounge chairs and will certainly pass that along. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon!
This condo was perfect for our family of 5. It was clean and we'll maintained. The kitchen is huge and well stocked making preparing meals very easy. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of towels for everyone. I also loved that this area of PCB isn't as loud and busy as some other areas. We'll be staying in this condo again.
