Will be great after construction

Condo was great, construction on the building made parking an issue and elevator an issue. Other than that would stay here again. Condo was very nice, well kept, and clean.

Roaches

This unit has roaches. We saw one on the countertop by the stove and one on the wall and it went behind the picture on the wall by the TV in the livingroom. After that I bought roach spray and sprayed in the kitchen and livingroom. I informed Becky at the front desk. She was so nice! Some of the cooking utensils had dried food on them, which was nasty. But we just washed them really good and used them. Washer/dryer very small inside. will not stay in this room again.

Wonderful Stay!

My family and I had a great stay here! We enjoyed the fact we were right on the beach and also had a pool to enjoy after being on the beach all day. The unit was the perfect size for our family of 4 being it has a pull out couch. The beds were a little hard but it didn't bother us as we popped up to enjoy the beautiful view from the 17th floor. The only downside to a high floor are the elevator rides (stopping at multiple floors) to get to your room or lobby so keep that in mind. Overall, we had a great stay and have recommended it to friends and family and will book again!

Will be are yearly vacation spot

We spent 5 nights here and loved it. It’s really a great family place. We had one hiccup with part of the dryer being broken but the staff was quick to help. They gave us a credit so that it would offset using our money for the dryer that was on the floor. No big deal. Oh and the view from the 17th floor, icing on the cake!!!!

Great location!

The unit was clean, in a great location, and the entire stay was very relaxing! The only complaint so to speak was that we were informed there was salt, pepper, and cooking oil in the unit for us to use, so we didn\'t think to bring any. Unfortunately, there wasn\'t any. This was only a very minor issue, however. Aside from that, everything was perfect!

One calamity after the next

The first night there, a pipe burst 2 floors above us flooding our condo. My husband who is a plumber went up to that room to cut off the main saving the owners of the condos below even more damage. The next day was spent partially in a temp room until a different condo was available. The condo we stayed in was different from what I booked and had no view of the ocean from the bedroom. Considering the first whole day of our vacation was taken up with waiting for our new condo to be ready and we were unable to relax and because the condo we ended up in was not like what I booked. I asked if they would be able to refund us a night of our stay. The manager was unwilling to talk to me, so the desk staff told me she would be in touch. No one has been in touch. We also had the elevator stop working while we were inside and our new room was on the 17th floor making it take much longer going up and down during the day. I'm very disappointed in The Sundestin and Scenic Stays. Ive booked through VRBO many times and never have had an experience like this.
