We have stayed in the Seacrest area for 11 years and this condo was by far the best place we have ever stayed. Big, spacious, clean and walking right out to the resort pool was the best!
Pool proximity along with the beach tram make it an easy pool/beach vacation for families with young kids. Condo was clean and exactly as described. Felt a little bigger than the pictures let on, look forward to staying again!
This condo was very clean and was a fantastic location. It’s close to all the shops and restaurants plus you walk right out to the beautiful pool. The condo was well stocked with everything we needed. It’s one of the best rentals I have stayed at in the complex.
The condo was very spacious, super clean, and all communication with property mgmt was quick and friendly! You open the back door and are right at the pool, open the front door and are a two minute walk to the beach! Highly recommend staying here! We hope to be back soon!
Lovely property, close to pool and beach. A perfect vacation spot for our family of 4. Only suggestion that we would have is different mattresses in the bedrooms. The beds were uncomfortable.
I rarely post reviews and I am very hard to please. This place exceeded my expectations for everything but particularly cleanliness. I love visiting somewhere where I don’t have to worry about anything and this was the place for sure. Would definitely stay at this property again.
We had a fantastic stay at the Villas of Seacrest! The condo was on first floor, steps away from the lagoon pool. There were beach chairs, umbrella and beach toys there in unit for our use. The kitchen had all the supplies needed. The condo, pool and grounds were exceptionally clean and well maintained. We love the Seacrest/ Rosemary areas. Very relaxing vacation!!
The property was perfect for our family. We have a 2 year old and 4 year old and the proximity to the pool was unmatched. We had plenty of space and it was a great location to everything (quick walk down to Starbs). This was the week of the hurricane and the communication leading up to our stay was phenomenal. Really appreciate the responsiveness and communication! Totally recommend this spot!! We’ll be back!
Great great location!! Steps from pool, close to beach, shopping and food. Condo was clean, had a lot of helpful extras and if we had a question they were quick to respond and help. Loved our stay and our vacation!
Great property, well maintained and ideal location!

Great property!
Great place to get away! The condo is spacious and well appointed - and right in front of the enormous pool. And the tram service to the beach is a great feature. Would definitely recommend!.
Everything was good, except at booking time we were not told the deeded beach access was closed because of maintenance?? At check in we were told to use a beach access 1.5 miles away from the property. They need to be honest and transparent on this issue.
This was our family’s second time to stay in this condo. Our family loves the closeness to the pool and the beach. The location is perfect and the condo is very clean. We will be back summer after summer.
Very comfortable accommodations. Our only frustration is the beach situation.It ridiculous to expect all these people vacationing to cram into a small space ant the beach and enjoy their vacation.
This was are 4th year in a row staying here at Seacrest Beach! Second time in this unit! We love everything about the pool, the beach, the condo, the tram, and the overall experience for our family. We have 5 young kids (9,7,5,4,1) and they always seem to enjoy it here. We will be back next year!
