Our Beach Vacation
This is a beautifully decorated condo unit with a killer view in a great location. The bathrooms are pretty small but that was not a surprise given it's a condo. Two people can not use either of the bathrooms at the same time so we each took one and that worked fine. The balcony was also a bit small but we only used it for morning coffee, breakfast and sunsets so it was able to work for the two of us ok. We did a load of laundry on our last night and found the washer stunk from the black mold all around the rubber gasket. That was the only thing we found wanting in the condition of the unit. The management company did not give us a beach code for our late afternoon arrival and gave us the wrong one when we called them. That was corrected the next morning

Everything that we expected!
Our first time staying at Beachcrest and it was a perfect location for us! We love 30A, and this was our first time staying in Seagrove. The location of the condo was great and we were able to walk to several of our favorite restaurants in the area; specifically Cafe Thirty-A and Angelina’s. My teens easily biked to Seaside. It was close to Publix and a gas station. The beach was private to guests of Beachcrest- not over-crowded like some areas. The complementary chair set-up was a bonus. We made sure to get to the beach early to get front row. The unit was as described and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. The furniture was comfortable. We were appreciative of the luggage carts provided for arrival and departure. We never had a long wait for the elevator, even during high season. The view from the 5th floor was perfect and we enjoyed morning coffee and evening drinks on the balcony. Absolutely no complaints! Wouldn’t hesitate to book again for next year.

We had a great week and loved the condo! It was clean and cozy. The kitchen was nice and well equipped! Beach chair/umbrella service was wonderful! We were afraid the pool would be chilly, but it was super warm and the kids were thrilled to have that as an option. The view is just beautiful and the balcony was big enough for the 4 of us to lounge on. We would definitely stay in this unit again.

Great location; nice propertyas
Although we have stayed in many properties in Seagrove for decades, this was our first time at Beachcrest, a 10 story condominium property. We enjoyed its good size, heated pool on the beach side of the property. There is private beach access by the pool area. Check in was easy - the owner is an excellent communicator. There were plentiful bellman carts available for guest use to get our belongings up to our unit. Parking was plentiful. The beach chairs and beach towels provided by the owner were a thoughtful appointment. The kitchen had everything we needed for meal preparation and serving. Appliances had been recently upgraded. The mattresses and bedding were less than hoped for. I addressed this privately with the owner, and I am hopeful some modifications will be forthcoming. We would definitely book this property again.

New Bed
The master "King" bed wasn't good. Older mattress and had a what seemed to be a Plastic Cover under the bottom sheet. Terribly annoying. Pillows impossible to use as they are incredibly thick. Had to buy new pillows to use. Very small 80s style bathrooms. Comfortable condo otherwise with good location

The condo was great. Very clean. Owner responded quickly to our issue with the door. One thing to note is the beach service is first come first serve and they do allow you to reserve your chairs/umbrella. The location of the condo made it easy to ride bikes to Goatfeathers Seafood Market and other restaurants in the area. We had a wonderful and relaxing time and enjoyed our stay.

Beautifully appointed condo
Beachcrest 505 is an exceptionally beautifully decorated condo with nice finishes. The kitchen is the most well equipped I've ever experienced in a rental. The provided beach chair and umbrella service was a great benefit and much appreciated. The one mechanical issue we experienced was promptly handled and communication with Debi from Big Thunder Mngmnt was excellent. Traffic, both vehicle and pedestrian, on 30A can at times be heavy and frustrating to move through.

I just wanted you to know what a great experience we had last week at your property. The Condo was as advertised and looked exactly like the pictures (many time that is not the case). The condo was clean and we felt very comfortable with the efforts made to make sure we felt safe in this crazy covid world. The on-site staff was helpful but not intrusive. The amenities were well kept and the walkway to the beach was in great repair which I assure you is rarely the case. All in all we were very pleased with the experience and how easy you made the process. We would definitely rent this condo again! We have been coming to the area every year since 2000 and this is one of the best experiences we have ever had. Thank you.
