The Colonnades #603 | Corner Condo, Grand Balcony!

This condo was excellent for our family vacation. It is large enough to accommodate the 8 adults and one toddler. The ocean view is unbeatable from the spacious balcony. The beach is well maintained and easily accessible. The pool area is also great for swimming and relaxing. I highly recommend this unit and the host. They responded quickly to any questions and are very pleasant. I am sure we will be back.

100% recommend staying here! Cant wait to come back. The condo was beautiful and fit our families perfectly. The balcony view was our favorite!

The door code did not work when we arrived...called the number given and got an x-rated recording...found another number that a live person answered and thankfully he was able to change the code. Not enough seating in the living room area...The cost was more than we usually pay, so would not book that one again.

The condo has a really great layout and gorgeous views from balcony. I loved the ceiling to floor windows that went from balcony to dining area. Kitchen was well stocked and beds were comfortable. Loved not having to check in and going right in with a code. Upon arrival, none of the beds had the decorative comforter or pillow shams as photos showed. They only had the blanket that goes over sheets, however they were clean. We later discovered the decorative covers and shams stored under the beds. One of the toilets had a leak and water was puddled in the floor and we had to to use the towels to soak it up. After contacting Southern Vacation Rentals through text, as they instructed, it took more than 24 hours for someone to come fix it. It looked like this was a problem they already knew about and had not fixed since there was already a new O-ring there and the caulking had already been removed from the bottom of toilet and left unsealed. The refrigerator needs to be replaced because after purchasing groceries and unloading them, we noticed the freezer got down to 22 degrees and fridge was 47 degrees. There’s a sticker on it saying it could take 24 hours for it to get to the correct temps after continued opening. It was only open long enough to put groceries in. The next morning, it was still not at temps it needed to be and we had to pour out the melted ice cream and baby formula. I texted Southern but never received a response at all. We just had to use our cooler to keep any other food purchased, but by the following day the temps on refrigerator did go back to normal. When we used the dryer for just a couple beach towels, it had high pitch squeal that you could hear all over the condo. It did work but do not use when you go to bed. It’s really a shame that such an extremely nice condo doesn’t maintain some very basic and essential items that any renter would expect to have when paying these kinds of high prices. We always rent through VRBO (By Owner, not Rental management company) and normally have a direct contact if there are issues. Having said all that, our family had a great time and the beach location is one of the best I’ve been to in the more than 15 years I’ve been going.
