Tidewater 3011

Four star rentals was fantastic! Very friendly, answered all questions, responded quickly, and made all instructions very clear. The condo was beautiful and well taken care of. We shared the condo with a second family for a total of 7 people. Plenty of room for all of us. The kids enjoyed all the pools and the beach. But, i can't give this all 5 stars because the elevator situation is out of control. Waiting over 30 min for an elevator almost anytime you needed it is ridiculous. We were there for our kids' dance competition. Running down 30 flights of stairs with all that gear several times that week wasn't feasible. We had to leave earlier every day to give time for an elevator wait. With 30 floors, I understand there will be some wait, but with 7 elevators I feel they could set something up a little differently.

The condo was clean, comfortable, plenty of space and everything we needed for a fabulous vacation. Elevators were a little slow at check in as to be expected with the volume of people and being on the 30th floor. Overall experience was excellent

We had a wonderful time. I won’t lie, this is not the easiest place to check into: between registering with the resort and registering with 4-Star, it’s quit a bit. The same information provided multiple times, etc. But we got all our paperwork done and got preregistered with the unit and registered with the resort....got our parking pass and checked out a luggage cart we could just enjoy our stay.

Our unit was spacious and well equipped. It came with a little bit of dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, one roll of paper towels, two rolls of TP for each bathroom, and hotel like bathroom shampoos, etc. so it reduced the supplies we needed to buy to facial tissue, trash bags, plastic wrap and foil.

Very little is asked of guests for checkout, so we didn’t have a huge checklist of tasks.

Living room furniture and beds are all comfortable. Tons of storage. Kitchen is well equipped. There are a few areas where things in the condo are showing wear, but all in all it was a great rental.

Resort itself has multiple pools, multiple hot tubs, etc. We always found a place to relax. The beach is wonderful, of course. We had no issues with spring break crowds or parties. I loved that we were far enough out that it was nice and quiet, but close enough we could walk to the Pier Shopping district with its stores, restaurants and bars. Construction on Front street made it a little hard to get around, but we survived.

TripAdvisor reviews complained endlessly about the elevators... we never had an issue at all. I think being on the top floor has an advantage...we never had an elevator come to pick us up that was too full.

I would tecommend this unit and this resort to anyone looking for a quiet beach vacation.

The view was amazing. We saw dolphins, turtles and stingrays from the balcony. We had such an amazing week and the condo was great. The dishwasher is kind of iffy sometimes but still worked. Overall we would absolutely stay in this condo again.

Such a nice sized condo with a stunning view! When we arrived the bedding in the master bedroom was stained/soiled so we had to wash the sheets and actually just went and bought a bedspread for our use. All of the linens in the condo seemed sparse, but fortunately our kids had brought some for the car ride. A lot of the silverware and dishes were put away with dried food still on, so we scrubbed them first then put them through the dishwasher before we used them. Be prepared for long elevator wait times! And no food or drinks in the theater?!? Who goes to see a movie without popcorn?!?

The room itself was exactly as described. There was plenty of floor space, the rooms and bathrooms were spacious enough for our group of 7. Downsides were the building itself. The view from the balcony is amazing BUT does not make up for the wait time on the elevators. We waited almost 40 mins one day to get on one and being on the 30th floor stairs were not an option. It is a minimum of 10 mins wait time for any elevator almost any time of day. The room was clean and smelled good when we arrived. AC struggled to keep below 72 but I feel like that’s expected at the beach. Check-in was super easy. Staff at motel are not friendly and poolside bar staff are blatantly rude. But this has zero to do with owners of suite. Location is convenient. I would not stay here again but would definitely select another property if the owners have one available.

Every thing was fabulous except the long elevator waits.

This is a great place to relax and everything you need
