About this apartment rental
Enjoy the new sleeper sofa and loveseat and the new adjustable queen bed in the MBR that will prop you up as you enjoy the view of the surf. Beachfront 3 bedroom with unblocked ocean view at Sea Colony, a premier resort with many free amenities. Same view as a dune top cottage. High enough for privacy but not eerie. Covered parking. On the second floor (#211) of Island House, the newest building on the beach at Sea Colony. Just one easy flight to the promenade/pools/beach level (elevators are available but stairs are closer). 1/2 mile of private beach, 34 tennis courts including some soft surface and 6 indoor courts (always one of the top rated tennis resorts in the world), 12 pools (2 indoor), 2 fitness centers, many new dedicated pickleball courts, splash park, new outdoor jacuzzi, walking trails, surf fishing, and in summer many planned camp-type activities for children, including games, contests, bonfires and marshmallow roasts, bingo, junior lifeguards, etc.
This is an owner direct rental through VRBO, so you pay only the VRBO fee and no additional rental agency fees. Always compare total cost and not just nightly rate.
A guest/amenities badge, for anyone age 4 and older, must be purchased upon check-in at Sea Colony. The fee is $20, $35 or $58 depending on the season and it cannot be collected by VRBO or the owner. Note to repeat guests: An exit cleaning fee is now collected separately from the rent as the new law, imposing a short-term rental tax, stipulates that cleaning fees are not subject to the tax.
Condo has granite kitchen countertops, undermount sink, high arch faucet with pullout, etc. New shower stall, new shower fixtures in both baths, new dishwasher, comfort height toilets, W/D and water heater in last 5 years. Has 4 flat panel TVs (one a 55"). Wired internet and WIFI available. Sleeping arrangement: queen in MBR, 2 twins in 2nd and 3rd BR, and queen sleeper sofa in LR. You must bring you own linens (sheets, pillow cases, towels) or rent from an agency. Parking is limited to 2 vehicles during the summer season (although more may be rented if available). Reserved parking space is covered which is a great benefit on hot or rainy days. Sorry, no smoking in entire building or pets allowed.

We had a lovely stay at Sea Colony — Richard made everything easy for us to come in and have a relaxing weekend. Slept so well with the sound of the waves outside.

We had a great time at Richard's condo in Sea Colony. Location in related to pool and beach could not be better, and the unit was clean and comfortable. Having to bring our own sheets and bath towels was a bit of a nuisance, but I see where it made sense for the owner. And the kitchen was well furnished with cooking utensils, pots and pans etc. without being overcrowded. I definitely would want to stay here if we return next year!

We had a great time during our week stay! Property was clean and had everything we needed. Communication with the host, Dick, was amazing. We will definitely be back!

The place was not an easy access to the pool. They have several pools but the outdoor pools are closed. The 2 indoor pools were not easy to access. They were several buildings away and across the hwy. So make sure you take clothes to change into afterwards because walking or driving several buildings away is not fun when wet. The pool is listed as heated but was only 85 degrees. I will say it was nice having a lifeguard. The hot tub was small but nice and hot. The place is listed as handicap accessible but IT IS NOT HADDICAPPED FRIENDLY. I’m in a wheelchair and the bathroom with the walk-in shower wouldn’t fit my chair so I had to hop into the bathroom. I had to have several pieces of furniture moved so I could get through the place to my bedroom. The bathtub had hair in it. Otherwise the place was very clean. The kitchen is small but well equipped. Overall it’s a nice place if you aren’t handicapped but if you are I wouldn’t recommend this place. The owner was very friendly but never checked in on us to see if everything was ok. The check in process was not fun. You have to drive across the street to a beach shop to do so. Also it’s listed as ocean front property but it’s more of a caddy corner view. I was very disappointed in that because I was looking forward to seeing the sun rise but it was just out of view.
