The views from the beach balcony and the highway balcony were wonderful. The Carousel is a great place to stay and we have stayed there numerous times. The living area had updated floor and nice furniture. They should have replaced all the tile area in the condo. Honestly, it was disgusting. Some rooms badly need repainting - the entry hall, master bath, especially.

The mirrors were not clean in the living room. The front door was broke, which they fixed it quickly but not accurately. Their was a huge tv in the closet, in which they later took out. The closet doors in the master bedroom was broke. I understand things happen but they put the new ones in the other bedroom closet and they didn't have access to the closet. They removed them while we were their. No forks for 6 people, no pot holders either. I also understand people steal this stuff all the time. The building is old so we couldn;t run a toaster and a coffee machine at the same time for it tripped the breaker.

Carousel

When you first walk in appears clean. Upon walking on floors your feet turn black, my son woke up with a bed bug crawling on him in the room with twin beds so he moved to couch and qould not sleep in the bed again. Dont blame him at all. I was sitting on master toilet to pee and the door to the washer room fell on my toe. Black and blue toenail will probably fall off. When my husband looked here u dont have a pin in the bottom of the door just hanging on there. We teied to make toast and toaster didnt work either. Just overall was not pleased for the money. Wouldnt recommend. The facilities was great.

Fun weekend getaway

The pros: We really enjoyed the ocean view and sitting out on the balcony. My kids enjoyed the resort amenities. The beach was nice and clean. It was very afordable and worth the money. They gave us a started pack of 2 rolls of toilet paper, 1 roll of paper towels and extra trash back sponge and little dish soap to start. It all lasted the weekend. The cons: the condo needs a deep cleaning. Furniture needs shampooed. I had to sleep next to a fake tree with dust fur growth all over it. Many of the dishes were dirty and needed rewashed before use. Refrigerator shelves are broken and have cracks but it works good. Walls are dirty/ scuffed up and need new paint.beds are uncomfortable with pressure points and could use replacing. The first night I was chilly and grabbed a spare blanket from the master bedroom closet that when opened looked like it had unwashed red blood all over it. I was horrified and tossed that back in the closet and quickly washed my hands. I saw another older review that complained about the lack of spoons which is still a problem. Only 1 teaspoon in the kitchen. The other spoons were the larger size that people don't eat with. We were washing and taking turns with our 1 spoon lol. I was almost tempted to go buy some for the condo. Such a dumb cheap item not to have.

End of summer stay

The place was grungy, chairs broken, missing hinges, broken patio items, generally outdated furniture and accommodations. A good paint job would have helped. We could not make any adjustments to the AC making us use multiple circular fans to stay somewhat comfortable. Lights were flickering off and on. We bought shower curtains/liners and bathroom rugs because the ones onsite were filthy. The worst experience we have had at OC and with any VRBO or Vacasa vacation. Totally disappointed! Will not becoming back and now I question these vacation websites as to their quality requirements.

Great views and location!

The views are worth it! You have ocean views and bay views! The complex was great and lots to do with kids. The furniture in the living room could use a deep cleaning, but other than that it was good. Dryer had some issues. We would totally stay here again!

2 Stars for the view

This place was filthy! The furniture was old and stained, the carpet was stained and felt like it had years of dirt built in. There were exposed wires on the wall. The microwave was missing a piece. The pillows had yellow stains. There was an old q-tip under the dresser, the patio furniture was stained and had cigarette holes. This place was just gross. Vacasa sent a message when we arrived asking about cleanliness. I told them what we found and sent pictures. They said someone local would contact me. No one did. The view and the location were great but I would definitely not stay here again and will avoid Vacasa properties in the future.

Out of date condo with cleanliness issues. Great property though.

We booked this condo thinking it was in great shape but we were wrong. The condo is outdated and not at all well maintained. Twenty minutes prior to check in (after driving 5 hours) we get a call telling us we will have no linens for our stay due to a linen shortage. The beds are hard and my back hurt from just one night. We took pictures and went to the property company. We were promised a full refund but only received a partial refund. I honestly would not recommend this property until it has had the updates we as paying travelers deserve.

Great views. Cleanliness was terrible. Dust everywhere vents,ceilings, lamps, curtains. The lamp actually started smoking like it was about to catch on fire. Allergies were terrible inside this room. Very scarce on choices of cookware and utensils. Furniture dirty and stained. Beds hard as a rock.

Good location but little outdated property

Property requires renovation. All the things in the house are old and need to be updated. I had to go to property manager thrice during my stay as the keys stopped working or the doors getting jammed. The pros are the location, nice ocean view from the property, secluded beach and the play area inside the property.

Clean but needs updated

Other than needing updated, I liked the condo but I did not like the fact we were expected to supply light bulbs in case one blew out which one did on the last days and some of the lampshade no bulbs in and we did not supply. Those types of supplies should be on hand just like enough toilet paper and paper towels and silverware. Our condo was big enough for 8 to sleep but barely had enough silverware for the 4 of us and some of that was still dirty. I had to clean dishes also. There was no skillet to make eggs and the food turner was rusty. Luckily I am a very easy going person as is my husband, I have friends that would never had stayed 1 night unless it is perfect especially with the cost I paid and the description given to promote renting. I will continue to look to vrbo for beach rentals because I was extremely happy with my rental on Pawleys Island in July. I expected the same this time. Whoever owns this condo needs to invest in updating because the place is really nice and was clean.
