The one bedroom condo was perfect for this trip. Bunk beds and extra bathroom was good for the kids. The condo was clean and the view of ocean great. Elevators had long wait times but usually around 10am and 4pm when beach chairs closed and for check-in/out.

The condo was spacious and well decorated. Beautiful views from the balcony. Sofa was not comfy. Elevators were horrible. Tidewater really should have some chairs near the elevators because the wait can be long. The water pressure in the master bath shower is very weak. Appliances were great. I would stay here again.

10/10

Loved the experience, great location right on the beach. Enjoyed the firework show at perfect view from our balcony. Only thing I would have to say was bad was the elevator wait at times but understand it’s 30+ floors and a lot of people in and out. Overall it was great and will return in the future

Great condo. It had everything we could need. Bed was much better than expected. Saw previous reviews complaining of the bed but it felt wonderful to me and my husband. We have stayed at this resort multiple times but the layout of this condo is my favorite!

The view was amazing! The fridge and stove are a little too close. We had a great time and was perfect for us to get away and relax. We will be back!

Vacasa is a wonderful source when planning a trip. They are professional and helpful! I give 3 stars, would actually give 1/2 if not for vacasa, due to the elevator wait. We stayed a few years ago, and we were told waiting was due to Father’s Day and sporting events. This trip wasn’t Father’s Day week, and I’m not certain about sporting events; I am sure this was our 2nd and last time staying at Tidewater. Vacasa, thumbs up; Tidewater, please improve flow of guests.

View from the condo was amazing. Condo was beautiful. Looked exactly like the pictures in listing. Staff were all very friendly & helpful. Only problems we had, we were not made aware that it was motorcycle week, so VERY NOISY & busy. Would not recommend going at that time. Also lots of road construction in front of building. Would have been nice to know these things and we would have booked for a different time.

Great view. Super cute unit. Could use a new mattress as I could feel springs in spots. Regular holiday inn bathrooms. Nice big fridge but couldn’t open the door all the way to get food/beverages in and out due to proximity to stove. Bird poop became a nuisance on the balcony but could be easily fixed if we had a broom. Thanksgiving dinner from the restaurant was really good.

We had an absolutely amazing time in our condo, everything worked as it should it was just like it's online the refrigerator was ice when I got there there have been times we went to condos and they said it took 24 hours for the refrigerator to get cold and this one has ice on the door and water which helped a lot because that's all we drink usually water . We had a great time in the condo has an amazing view, you will see several reviews on the tidewater talking about how crappy the elevator services we did not experience that a lot because we did not like to go out and eat supper we like to go eat lunch and then eat supper at the condo so the boy can swim and we can enjoy the pool and beach in the cool of the evening, there were times where we had to wait 5 mins or so but we know this at the time , there are busy times at condo, supper time and chen in and check out time , you just learned to jump on and ride it even if it's the wrong way lol, most everyone has the same problem so everybody just packs in that elevator like a can of sardines. But the unit has everything you could ever need and when I say it was clean it was immaculate. Everything was fantastic. We booked through VRBO and managing company was vacassa, we received an email the day before with the code to get in and all the property details, they called us about 2 hours before checking I told them we were going to be there about 6:30 they said no problem we check in with security &they had our packet ready

The condo itself wasn’t that bad however I feel the owner was intentionally deceitful. The main patio door in the living room is fixed to NOT open leaving the only access from the bedroom. I have an adult daughter that stayed with me who spent a lot of time out there, more if she had access from the living room. Once we were ready to go to sleep it cut her acess off. The bedroom should not be the only means to go out on the patio. My biggest complaint is with the building itself. The elevators are a joke and we wasted several hours ( yes hours) waiting on the elevator. The day we checked in only one elevator in the parking garage was working but by the time a luggage cart was finally available that one elevator went down leaving us to push the cart down multiple floors to get to the crosswalk. The elevators are not only slow but most of them don’t work properly. On this floor only one single button worked, the up button. When an elevator finally came we had to ride it all the way up then back down. This place has a huge amount of tourists so for this to be an issue is insane. They are clearly taking in a lot of money. Enough to fix this situation for sure. The best thing about our stay was waking up to see the ocean and the extremely comfortable bed. I would suggest checking other resorts and prices before staying here. Wished I had took the others reviews about the elevators seriously myself. Trust me, it will make you very angry after waiting for over 10 min each time you need to catch the elevator.

The room with buck beds and bathroom together.

Nice place to stay. Could have been cleaner. Could use a little updating with paint and door handles missing. We think the pay to parking is ridiculous. Because paying what we did to park in normal spot is not right. Need more blankets or thicker blankets on beds.

Clean, well maintained property. Only suggestion would be a pillow top mattress (or new mattress) for master bedroom, quite uncomfortable.

This condo was great, very clean. Had everything we needed. Great view of the water. Would definitely book again.

The communication between the property and myself was amazing! Very easy check in process. Access to the property, amenities, and beach was so easy with our wristbands and they even worked after getting wet in the ocean. It was my birthday and I was surprised at the birthday welcome I received…so personable! Would definitely stay again!!
