Good value!

We had an enjoyable stay. Super easy access to the beach! The included umbrella and beach chairs were a huge added value. The room was clean and exactly what we were expecting. This is not a luxury suite but it is ideal for a quick getaway for two on a budget! We had a small issue with the dishwasher during the stay but the owner was super quick in responding and had our issue fixed within an hour!

Amazing Place!

Pictures do not do it justice. Check in and communication were super super smooth and easy. Condo is absolutely beautiful and has everything you need. We will definitely be back to this particular unit and property. Huge bonus to have beach chairs provided. Great pool. Walk out access to the beach. Awesome location close to everything to do.

Great stay!

The condo was beautiful and I really enjoyed the free beach chairs. The walk to the beach was short and easily accessible. Everything was great! However, the pull out bed was very uncomfortable. It was so thin you could feel the springs! That was the only concern. The owner was very nice and responsive!

Very updated and comfortable room!

We enjoyed our stay as the room was very updated and comfortable. Had everything we needed and Pamela was so nice to work with. She always responded quickly during booking and checked in with us after we arrived to make sure everything was okay and then again right before we left to make sure we didn't need anything. Our only hesitation is that the building is a bit on the older side so it could use a little updating, but once you were in the condo unit it felt newer and clean. We had two adults and two children and had plenty of room!

Above Expectations

The condo was the perfect unit for a small group. The pictures didn’t do it justice. Very clean! Well stocked with anything you need. Loved the personal touches like hand soap and nice quality bath towels. Pamela was very responsive to any questions we had. We are very frequent PCB visitors and this was one the best condos we’ve stayed in. We would definitely stay again! Thank you, Pamela for sharing your piece of paradise.

Ms. Joyner was an absolute angel to work with!

The property was perfect. I’ve stayed in many condos at PCB, but usually I need a 2-bedroom. This time it was just my mom, myself and my 2 kids, so this was perfect! I was amazed that this condo was better stocked than most 2-bedrooms we had stayed in. There was not an item we needed that wasn’t there other than groceries. The bed was super comfortable, and the place was immaculate. We were so cozy and I can’t wait to return next summer. My kids loved the big swimming pool, and the walk to the beach was not bad at all....again much closer than most I’d stayed in. Please don’t hesitate!! Great experience. The owner answered all of questions right away no matter how small they may have been . Also, she refunded my security deposit the same day we checked out. She’s just awesome!!

Best Condo Unit in PCB

This Condo Unit far exceeds everywhere I have stayed at in PCB for the past 14 years! Owner: Amazing and Checks in with you via text to ensure everything is going smoothly! Amazing Host! Cleanliness: Amazingly Clean! Everything in unit is wiped down, including floors! No sand in unit at all on the floors! Everything looks brand new for furnishings and upgraded decor, backsplash, paint, kitchen & bathroom fixtures. Bed: Super Comfortable! Sheets are top notch! Mattress is not firm but not soft-just right! I normally sleep on a sleep number bed at my home due to back and knee pain. This bed actually allowed me to sleep without tossing and turning—unlike other beds I have slept on in other condos at PCB! Slept like a King! Wife slept like a rock as well and concurs with all I’m saying! Shower: Great Pressure for being on 7th floor. My wife always complains about shower pressure when we stay in high rise condo units. This unit was perfect with pressure and hot water! TV: Roku TV. Has all the channels you need including apps on tv that you can input your info into (Netflix, Prime, ESPN, etc.). We watched a basketball NBA game on ESPN. Entered in my info/code from my Dish network and the game was on for us. Just make sure you exit out your info so no one uses your stuff when you’re gone. Other: loved the multiple charging ports for phones and electronics. No need to bring charging blocks. Was able to plug everything I had to charge while there.
