Beautiful White Sands at Emerald Surf 305

Nice place. Easy check in. Host very kind and responds immediately. Thank you.

The view and location of this unit is unmatched! We loved the easy and accessible location to the beach and pool! The pool is also such a win with little kiddos. Everything is safe and the utilization of gates makes a mama feel really good. The pool is also heated! The communication with the VRBO host was easy and they quickly responded, which was super helpful! It is a quick drive to some lovely places to eat and the beach is less crowded and busy, even during spring break! Other than a wine bottle opener, the kitchen had everything we needed. A few things to note include that some of things provided by other units were not available at this unit on the property. For example; beach towels, beach chairs, and sand toys. You will have to bring your own. That is hard for families of five with younger kids that are flying. Also, the cabinets were a bit grubby upon arrival and I needed to wipe them down. Lastly, we bought a wine bottle opener and donated it to the unit as one was not available, along with some pool noodles. Some updates or amenities could be included that would make this a five star experience. New towels for the bathrooms, new pillows for the king bedroom, and providing a few items to make the trip more manageable would be lovely for the beach, like sand toys, beach towels, a mini cooler, and some foldable chairs. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and provided our family some quality time together. We would rebook in the future and plan ahead for amenities.

The view was awesome.

We stayed April 1st-7th to prepare for our wedding. First walk through, it was not cleaned good. The floors needed to be mopped and the master bathroom shower doors had black hairs on them. The view was nice and plenty of outdoor seating. The kitchen faucet needs to be fixed along with the large burner on the stove. Sink only works on sprayer setting instead of running normally without holding down the button. The stove, you cannot use the large burner on high setting. It would not work. Couldnt get water to boil in large pot. All the towels in the unit smelled sour. We had to go out and purchase our own even after washing what was there 5 times and using downy odor refresh. It was so bad but eventually, we got them half way better. Used our own the remaining time of our stay. We cleaned the entire unit with exceptions of the bedding before we left better than what it was when we checked in. The building itself is old and dated. The elevator took forever. We ended up taking the stairs a few times. The pictures posted doesnt show the entire building, so dont expect it to be much. Wasnt what we expected on arriving. We won't be staying again.
