Great place for the family!

Condo had everything thing we needed to feel comfortable. If you forgot something, Walmart is a quick 5 min drive. The beach is super easy to access, and the pool allowed the kids to burn off that last min energy. Looking forward to coming back!

2week getaway

We enjoyed our stay at this property, I would recommend it to others! Really enjoyed the heated pool! Everyone was very friendly and kind. Staff was helpful. Looking to possibly book another stay next year. The only thing is maybe this condo could use a little up dating of a new king mattress. But we would definitely rent this condo again.

Spring Break 2021

Very nice condo right across from the beach. Living room and kitchen were very nice and clean. And the view! 💕 Both bathroom’s were surface clean, but need some love. Both sinks and tub surrounds need replaced in my opinion. But other than that, very nice and safe area. Surrounded by plenty of things to do and food options. Nice place!

Excellent location

We truly enjoyed our stay. The condo is equipped with everything you need to enjoy your stay. We had a beautiful view of the beach. The beds were very comfortable and left us rested. The location is close to restaurants and fun as well. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We will definitely be back. We only had one issue at the location which was not the condo owners fault. The elevator was not working properly and I got stuck the last day. The HOA needs to address this issue ASAP as I was not the only person to get stuck over our stay.

Overall experience was great! Out of everything there was only one issue and it was the bedroom sheets. They weren't clean. They had some dirt and hairs. But we just removed them and washed them ourselves:) Other than that the condo had everything we needed!

Beach view was great. Waters were warm, however, we had quite a bit of June grass(algae) in the water while we were there. The pool was excellent. Our room was fairly clean. It’s an older unit. There was lots of dirt and food under the couch and kitchen table. Our kitchen was well equipped with pans, utensils, etc. several plates had chips out of them, but still usable. This was a two bedroom unit. The screen was cracked on one tv. The other bedroom had dingy, stained sheets. The ceiling fan/light kept turning off and on automatically during the night waking us up. Overall we had a good trip, just with a few inconveniences.

Excellent location

The location was great, close to stores(Walmart/Whole Foods/Walgreens) if needed, with tons of activities in the surrounding couple of miles. The beach was gorgeous, and overall was a very family friendly experience. Not “Spring break” at all- families with kids- this is a great place. The condo was perfect, amenities were so helpful and yes located by the elevator but I’m a light sleeper and used a sound machine- didn’t hear a thing. Grounds were well maintained. I may have missed this on the description so not putting fault on them but families with littles- the pool with the fountain/walk in area is NOT HEATED. There is a small pool by the ocean that is and everyone goes there this time of year/gets crowded. For people like me who know next to nothing about this part of Florida- it is not warm enough this time of year to even think about the pool that isn’t heated :) Washer and dryer was a life saver. Would come again!!

Everything is far as the condo was great but we went in March so the beach was ice cold the large pool was way too cold for my children to get into and heated pool was broken the entire week we were there. So we were quite disappointed

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, Renae! We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful layout of the home, though we are disappointed that we were unable to provide you with a relaxing stay. We do feel that it is important to note that the shared facilities on site are managed by the HOA, however, our guest experience team is available to assist during all hours of the day if any amenities fall short. We hope to have the chance to impress you in the future!

Great location

Sterling Shores was the perfect location for our vacation. The property is stunning with two pools, one smaller and one large. Access to the beach is just a walk across the street. I personally loved the high tops tables that overlooked the beach on the property. The condo itself was really nice and homey. There was a large soaking wet area on the carpet when we arrived and the property management team kept saying they’d fix it but it was just as wet when we left as when we got there. Not sure why it was so soaked. We sent two messages over Vrbo website to the listing agent over the course of a couple months but never heard back so I finally had to track down someone at the property itself. Once I was able to do so, they got back to me right away and we’re very helpful. I highly recommend Sterling Shores and would stay here again!
