The property was clean. We rented a car from Sanford Orlando airport and found the place okay in the dark and rain. It came with most things to last you a day or two, but didn't have any extra trash bags, salt and pepper, Susan wrap or tin foil, toilet paper or paper towel. There is a dollar general market across the street so that was convenient.

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you found the property clean. Glad the nearby store was helpful. Thank you for staying with us.
It was a GREAT experience from when we booked the rental until we checked out. We did not have any issues the 2 weeks we were there. The place was very clean when we arrived and had all the amenities needed. We also had an awesome view of the ocean.

Great site, excellent condo.../
NSB is always great and this location was clean and had all the amenities we were looking for.
The only criticism I would put is the lack of WiFi throughout the complex in the common areas which was sorely lacking. Staff was great, grounds well maintained.

When booking this property I was skeptical about the review of the musky smell. I decided to book anyways. I want to add, during our stay we followed the, keeping the doors and windows closed, rule to keep the moist air from making the situation worse. The room was cute, location was great, however, we ended up having to get an air purifier due to the musky ness. My husband and son has allergies and it really set him off. After the purifier we enjoyed ourselves.

I rented this condo for myself and my two grandsons, one of which suffers from autistic spectrum disorder and has incontinence issues. I specifically rented this condo because the property claimed to have washer and dryers on each floor. This was very important to me as my special needs grand child needs daily laundry. There are in fact two laundry rooms on each floor but none of them have both a functioning washer and dryer and in many neither works. The maintenance people told me these have been broken for a very long time and are too old to get parts for and the board refuses to buy more. In one of the many laundry rooms in the building that had a functioning dryer was a note from a guest asking the person who stole all their towels from the dryer to return them. These rooms are often open despite the fact they are supposed to be locked. The washer and dryers each cost 2.50 I complained about losing money in broken machines and received no response. One machine that allegedly worked didn’t spin the towels etc and it took 3 hours to dry when I finally found a functional dryer on the second floor. Additionally we were told we could not dry beach towels on the balcony, there is no where in the unit to do this therefore the towels were constantly wet. Upon check out if you have more than 2 loads of wash you will be fined for additional loads. The only way this can be accomplished is by doing some laundry yourself before hand. When I complained about the facilities I repeatedly got the message there are 2 laundry rooms on each floor despite the fact none have functional equipment. I was also encouraged to take my laundry down the road to a laundromat, which was not practical without a car and with 2 children one of which has special needs. There was no dishwashing liquid and no scrubbing pads available upon arrival. The bathroom is dark and moldy. The leather chairs in the living room are discolored and tired. Behind the bed and bedside table are dusty and dirty. The location is great for pool and beach access. I could have accepted the deficiencies of the condo but the property management is horrible and they intentionally mislead potential renters into believing they will have laundry facilities readily available. I would never consider renting any property run by this management company.

Hi Karen,
Thank you for sharing this feedback with us. Sea Coast Gardens does have 2 laundry rooms on each floor, and these are maintained by the building manager and HOA. We will share this feedback with the owners so they can take this up with the building manager and HOA board. We are happy to reimburse you the $2.50 that was lost in one of the machines. Unfortunately, many buildings do not allow guests to hang towels on the balcony. We make our guests aware of this and the laundry check-out procedures in the terms and conditions that are sent and the guest portal. We hope you were able to overall enjoy your time in New Smyrna Beach.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback as this helps us understand what to improve for future guests. The owner has replaced the bedframe as it seems this was the issue. The bed also has a Tempur-pedic mattress. We're glad you loved the condo's location, and hope you had a wonderful time overall!

We arrived Monday afternoon and Unfortunately my husband spent the rest of the vacation in the NSB Hospital. We were unable to enjoy the beach, pools, etc. But I enjoyed the safety and comfort of the condo each nite after daily visits to the hospital. Vicki
The condo needs a dehumidifier to replace the damp rid bags they have hanging on nightstand and back of door. The smell lingered on my clothes and was frustrating. We stayed here and had our wedding on the beach I was so nervous that my dress was going to STINK! At first we thought it was normal since condo is on the beach. But we had friends that also stayed at same complex and their condo had no odor! We went and bought an air freshener but the smell still lingered:( The condo itself was cute but we couldn’t “love it “ because the odor was horrible.

Hi Patty,
We apologize if your stay did not meet your expectations. Due to the salt air environment, all beach properties are subject to this and can easily be fixed with damp-rid. In the future, please call us immediately and we will send a team member to quickly resolve the issue. We have also reached out to you to personally apologize for this affecting your stay. We're glad you loved the condo's décor and hope you enjoyed your overall time at the beach.

The property is great. The "construction on the roof" turned out to be quite noisy, beginning at 8 am, so this wasn't good. No other complaints.
