Very nice place to stay. Great beach access and walking distance to eating and night activities. The only complaint would be that the mattress was so hard we had to buy a foam topper just to be able to sleep on it. The pillows were useless and worn out. A few dollars spent there would make a big difference in the overall enjoyment. Otherwise-a great place.
We had a great time! We had everything we need for the weekend. Everything we needed for the weekend was provided for us. Just be aware there is no elevator and we were on the 3rd floor. Somehow I missed this when I booked. We stayed anyway and made it work!
This is our second time staying in this complex and love the location. The view was great but the refrigerator and freezer had a strong fish odor. It seems that someone must have caught a fish off the pier or beach and stored in the refrigerator. We could not get the odor to subside. Cleanliness of the unit was not great but not too bad. Very limited paper products and trash bags so had to buy out own on day two. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay.
This is the second time that we have stayed at Sea Pines. This unit was VERY clean! One of the cleanest properties that we have ever stayed in. A short walk to the beach. The property and pier were clean and well maintained. The unit is on the third floor which we knew beforehand and were prepared. The bathroom looks to be recently updated. The kitchen had everything that we needed. The unit was well stocked with soap, paper towels, etc. to get us started.
I gave the unit three stars because of the condition of the unit. My daughter and I had our allergies flare up and had take medication after the first day. It was extremely musty. It smelled like the air conditioning had been turned off for a while, and the unit had been simmering in the humidity. The couch, living room chair, the bunk bed mattresses, the pull out couch mattress, and the mattress on the bed were all musty and moldy smelling. The sheets and blankets were fresh and clean, but they were overpowered by the musty smell. We used Febreeze but it did not help since the smell was embedded. The refrigerator and the range hood were both rusty. The wallpaper was stained and smelled. The air coming out of the air conditioner smelled.
Since I live in the South and am used to the humidity, I know that you continually have to keep the moisture in check. This unit is too moist and needs to be better maintained. The unit that we stayed in last time was not this musty, so it is the unit not the building.
Place was exactly what we needed. It is close to restaurants. It is right on the beach. Even if feeling lazy, you can open the door to listen to the ocean.
Down side is the large parking lot between you and the beach. The amount of cigarette smoke, voices and car alarms being set takes away from the beach vibe, bigtime.
Kitchen lacks basics such as ability to store any food. No tupperware or plastic bags or condiments, just some basics would be fine? Just know if some peace and quiet is wanted this is NOT the place. Location is cool due to the beach but its a very very busy place.
