So happy we made this family vacation. The view was so beautiful. Like paradise. The pool was heated. There was a jacuzzi too. We walked to the beach everyday. The kids had the best time playing in the waves. The place had everything you could need in a home. All you need to bring is your clothes. Safeway is 5 minutes away. There’s a shopping center that is walkable distance. My kids had so much fun. It was worth every penny. I have a family of 6 and there was plenty of room for all of us.

We love this condo. It is very clean which is much appreciated. We're able to sit under the covered patio and enjoy all our meals. It may not be a "full" ocean view, but the view you have is lovely and visible from the living area and bedroom. And its close enough to enjoy hearing the ocean waves. This was our 2nd time at this property, and we will be back.

So Easy & Nice
We have stayed at a dozen of the 2-unit Villas at Seascape & it's hard to top this one. Not the place if you are looking for ocean views, but it is the closest unit to the stairs down to the beach.We hate rentals with a lot of knick-knacks and clutter & this one gets it right. Clean, comfortable & stylish and turnkey -- you'll feel right at home in minutes. Having it's own private entrance is a plus.Would definitely stay here again. No-hassle property management company.

Ocean was visible from unit . But TV was a problem , no Roku for 7 0f the 9 days we had there . Finally a new Roku was installed, but a little too late . Shear curtain in West side bedroom came off the first day , no stop was installed on the track ! Shower stall was very slippery , had to buy a bath mat for stability . Over all a good Unit .
