Nice condo in a great location
Overall the condo is nice. It could probably use a deep cleaning in the kitchen and bathroom, but in general it was clean. The living room was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The bed was also comfortable. The apartment is nice and bright, and has a beautiful balcony and direct view of the ocean. There was a minor issue checking in, but the owner was very responsive, and even gave me a little refund for the trouble. Mostly the apartment is just a crash pad however, you're there for the beach. The beach is right outside the building and it's a lovely beach. The complex also has a number of heated pools, and decks to sit on. Within a five minute walk are a number of restaurants and mini-golf, and the Bethany Beach boardwalk is less than half a mile away- you can walk there down the beach.

Communication was excellent. Property is conveniently located on the 6th floor. great view of the ocean with steps away from the beach. The beach is private which does help control the crowd. Elevator was very close and parking conveniently close as well. A clock in the unit would be nice. We felt some things could be updated as it is a little dated. Guest passes are needed at $55 per person. Yes, we would stay here again.

Great location and easy communication
The property was as advertised and even brighter than I imagined from the pictures. With a few small changes it could be great. The location was awesome, perfect placement in the condo buildings, and appreciated the parking and locker near parking. Updates to make it great: have hand soap at each sink, have trash cans in each bathroom, have towels for kitchen, have trash bags for kitchen, bolt in the dishwasher, have pods for the dishwasher, and purchase new chairs and boogie boards for the locker (some equipment was broken). Overall, we loved our week here and tried to make the most of all the activities offered with the amenities pass. Thank you for the great communication and easy check in process!

Be aware
Pros: The unit is conveniently located; there’s a great view. The owner responds quickly to texts. The kitchen is reasonably well equipped. We were offered a partial refund for a broken AC (3 days to replace a motor). Cons: The condo badly needs repair, a thorough cleaning/dusting and updating throughout. Overall the unit had an unwelcoming ambience and a sense of minimal upkeep for maximal profit. None of the other condos we saw this or last year were anything like this unit in cleanliness and upkeep. I’m surprised about the positive reviews and wonder about their origin. If you (like I was) are making a reservation late in the season be aware of there are lots of issues with cleanliness and upkeep: worn furniture, flimsy roller shades, uncomfortable bed with makeshift foam on top, dusty, bathroom that's old and worn with scratched porcelain, unclean tile grout and a partially working shower door, in addition to the AC a shade broke and the screen door dislodged.

Love Sea Colony
We had stayed at Sea Colony before, but not in the last 18 years. It’s still a great property! Better suited to families than couples. This unit is clean and well located with an amazing view. And the beach chairs, umbrellas etc that were included meant we didn’t have to pack them or pay a fortune for them in the beach! The host was very nice and helpful. Check in is a little confusing. More specific directions and procedures should be included in the materials.

The style of this property "Stylish Condo" was Early Run Down and I Don't Care". There was not a single part of the unit that didn't need to be updated. It is clear the owner is simply renting as many times as possible to make the most and spending the least. Toilet doesn't flush properly, shower broken and moldy, a barn floor w hay and straw would have been better than the bed. Appliances were dirty and greasy especially the coffee machine. We left 1.5 days early because we wouldn't stay another night. Building is 50 years old and it looks like the unit hasn't been upgraded, repaired or in some spots cleaned the whole time. Extremely disappointed. The Marriott would have been a far superior alternative for the same price.

Luxury condo review
The location of this condo is absolutely perfect. The assigned parking spot is basically right next to the entryway of the building- making loading and unloading extremely convenient and easy. Your ocean view from the balcony is spectacular! The condo is right off the elevator so again, very convenient! A few minor issues- the blinds didn’t work for the sliding doors. Most times you want them open to enjoy the view however it would be nice for privacy to have the option to pull them closer but they were broken. There was no toaster- again this is very minor but nice option for breakfast in the mornings. There is a washer/dryer combo in the kitchen. I decided to wash some towels halfway through our stay and discovered the dryer didn’t work. Sea colony doesn’t allow anything to be hung off the balconies so I was left with a load of wet towels to dry throughout the condo. Overall it’s a clean condo with normal wear and tear- a little maintenance needed. We still had an amazing time and the condo serves its purpose!

Unacceptable Condo Condition
My family has stayed in Sea Colony condos for multiple years and have always enjoyed the property and area. Unfortunately this experience was different... The location and larger facilities were great, but the condo was in unacceptable condition. Issues: Main door lock was inoperable (safety concern), the dryer was broken, the window blinds were broken (missing shades and pull string), the bedroom windows fell off the wall (I reinstalled), the closet door was broken and unsightly, and the overhead light was handing by a wire, The owner did not make any of these issue clear in the posting; when I brought it all to his attention, he informed me that he was aware of it all and that he was planning to fix in the off-season, which of course does not help my family's experience. We enjoyed our stay, but the property was certainly a disappointment and distraction to our experience.

Awesome view of the beach from the living room. Easy walk to the pools/beach as well as a short walk across a quiet road to mini golf, Walgreens, and several great food options, including gourmet donuts. Reserved parking is under cover of the building and barely a walk to the elevator.
