The condo is in a great location. It was clean and quiet and had everything that we needed. Our party included an older set of parents (60s) and 24-year-old daughter and we had plenty of room. The elevator was much appreciated and loved the short walk to the beach.

We were delighted with the location-walking to beach, lovely pool, well mannered dogs welcome. The property managers responded promptly when we let them know we didn't have enough coffee mugs and the lock on deck door was broken (both issues resolved within a couple hours). Listing is accurate in terms of space (no ocean view from room). It met our needs and the property managers exceeded our expectations.

One of the best located places I’ve stayed. Right on the ocean. Two small items that need to be addressed-sheets and mattress pad need to be thrown and replaced with new. Second-the toaster is toast. The family tried to cook a grilled cheese in it and that doesn’t work. Also-use real escapes-easy to work with and always friendly

Generally satisfied. The condo building and grounds are well maintained and very dog friendly, which is important to us. Cleaning and maintenance staff were professional, friendly and courteous. The unit we rented (205) needs significant work. The heat pump makes "death rattle" noises when it runs - very distracting and needs fixing. The sliding door from the living room to the balcony was missing the catch mechanism so this door cannot be locked. The blinds in the front bedroom are broken. The primary microwave over the range is broken - a small counter unit was there but takes up too much space in an already small kitchen and is also very small. Plate is missing from the front door latch on the inside, with springs visible - just looks tacky and poorly maintained. Two light fixtures on dimmer switches had non-dimmable LED bulbs installed, so they flickered constantly. These were promptly changed by your maintenance man, who was very nice. The entire unit needs a deep cleaning - every corner was dark with dirt that had been there a long time. Swivel Chair shaft was so worn it was unstable.

Great location on the beach. Unfortunately location can't make up for a lack of care. On our first day we had to have the living room sofa, chairs and dining rooms chairs professionally cleaned and they were still stained and smelled like dog. After two visits from the bug exterminator we were still seeing cockroaches. There was no frying pan or broom but Real Escapes brought those over within an hour of our requesting them. I had to purchase additional small plates and bowls - the unit only had 4 of each. The walls are dirty, dingy and in need of a new paint scheme. And there is no sound proofing - we heard every footstep and toilet flush of the people above us. I could go on but suffice it to say we were hugely disappointed in Shipwatch 205. A little investment by the owner would go a long way to improving this condo.

The rental was comfortable; the closeness to beach ideal. The skillets and pans were very dirty, unusable; otherwise all was clean. The place is dog friendly, which was great. The people above us were so noisy that I have to think the building lacks sufficient insulation. Also they brought a grill and cooked outside on their porch. Is that allowed? It would have been very easy for coals to fall through the slated porch floor down to our porch. It felt like a fire hazard.

Moderately updated unit on second floor with no view. The unit looked clean at first glance but it had dirt build up along the baseboards and the outside deck area and furniture are filthy, the furniture is rusted. The location is great with beach access and the pool. Also with that many guests the pool should be cleaned more often. It was cloudy at times.

Apt. Was clean and serviceable. There is no view. The drains run very slowly. And the dvd, surround sound, etc., don't work. No HD cable service. This was our last year of staying there. Real Escapes folks were, as always, professional, helpful, and accommodating. We plan to work through them first to find a more upscale apartment.

We had a wonderful,restful week and look forward to
return visits to Shipwatch.
Unit 205 is very comfortable and well cared for with the exception of the vent in the front bathroom which is noisy. In particular, the king size mattress in the master bedroom is excellent.
We admired the remodel of the kitchen area, but discovered that there's not much storage space for groceries. Also, for some reason there was only one knife left in the flatware?

The condo is in a great location and easy access to the beach. The only problem with this unit is the owner really needs to upgrade the mattress in the master. It is either old or just low grade.

The condo was very attractive. It has been totally updated and a lot of thought went into the redesign. My only disappointment is that it has no view except of the building next door. It only gets morning sun. We would have preferred more sunlight.

Other than a few problems with the telephone and furnace, it was fine. The rental agency could not have known about these things, but took care of them in a very timely manner. The reservation procedure was the best I have experienced in over 20 years of "snowbirding"
