Great views and beach. Misrepresented listing with multiple customer service issues
The property was adequate with a great balcony and lovely ocean view. Wonderful beach. The unit was outdated and had several issues that would have been over looked had not two specific issues tainted the stay. The two major issues were that the beach set up that is claimed to be included in the listing title and description, is not included. It is available for an additional fee or if you get lucky and get to the beach in time, you can snag a set up on a first come first serve basis. The other major issue was the noise disturbance detection and service. We were woken up every single night to texts claiming we had created a noise disturbance. The texts were constant and unfounded and very disruptive to our stay. I assume that the noise disturbance was set off by the very loud AC unit and the trash shot that’s right outside the door. After exhausting back and forth communication through several numbers regarding this, I was given no solution And the texts continued the entire stay. The unit had no ventilation and no fan in the bathroom and had a musty smell. It was very outdated, especially the bathroom. Beds were worn and uncomfortable with poor quality linens. Towels and paper products were also sparse and of low quality. The balcony was great with a beautiful view.

Ok
I thought the condo was kind of smelly. And the patio door was really hard to open and close. We got there really early and asked to be let in but no dice. Not even 15 minutes. It’s so expensive to stay anywhere anymore with all the fees. It’s beginning to seem like it’s not worth it. I don’t think I should have to strip the sheets if I’m paying a cleaning fee.

Great location
Condo located right on the beach was as advertised. Well laid out and quiet on the end of the building next to the stairs. The included 2 beach chairs and umbrella was a great addition to the week! The rentals were very expensive and glad they were included with the rental. Vacasa was also great to work with as their communication with us was top notch. If we go to this area again, we would definitely stay at Island Echos again!

Working remotely from the beach!
This property was the perfect place for my husband and I to get away. We were able to work remotely and enjoy the ocean views and the beach. The place was clean and as described. The only negative was the noise from the construction during the day but not and issue for us. Would totally stay here again!

needs a little cleaning
The ice dispenser on the frig was broken. The floors needed a good scrub. We had to wear socks to keep our feet clean. The baseboards were a little nasty, too. Great view, though.

The balcony is lovely. Many updates have been made to the unit. Having beach chairs and umbrella included was a big plus. The mattress was lacking. Had back pain every morning.

Awesome Stay
This was our first VRBO and condo vacation. It was a dream come true. The place had everything you could want and more. The view was outstanding and unlike our past vacations in hotels even our neighbors were quite. Wednesday night we got a message from Resort Quest App that said there was going to be fireworks at the boardwalk. No problem. We watched them just fine from our balcony. The only thing we didn't like was leaving. We already are planning our next stay.
