Beautiful condo and excellent location!
The condo is in a great location with super easy access to the beach and pool area. No huge complaints and overall a great experience! Our two issues were the stove and parking……The stove was not great. The back left large burner wasn’t useable because the tray the burner sits in wasn’t the right one and the coils wouldn’t lay flat so therefore pans wouldn’t lay flat. The right side front and back burners also seemed to have some electrical issues as they worked intermittently and sometimes opposite of which burner was turned on. And the parking app, OMG, it was a nightmare. The instructions were specific that you needed to put in arrival and departure dates but we didn’t see an option for that. Then the app said that parking was good for up to 21 days - so we thought we’d be ok. WRONG - we got a parking violation ticket on day two for both vehicles we’d paid for (57.45 per car for a week if you’re wondering since the description doesn’t mention paid parking). The condo attendant was SUPER helpful and provided us with paper parking permits to use the rest of our stay. I don’t remember his name (started with a O) but he was really great and said this was a common issue since switching to a new method.

Summer July 4 vacation
Family came to stay June 30 thru the 5 of July area was nice beach less crowded than down by pineapple Willy’s fireworks were awesome both nights ! The 3 and 4 th. The bathroom in the master had no door except the entry door to the room and we could not get that door to lock so using bathroom in private was non existent . The description of the big front porch left me thinking the view from the balcony was all ocean front you could see a portion of it overlooking the hot tub . The view from the master bedroom was the condos to the other complex . Other that that we enjoyed the pool and the beach . The staff was great and friendly and the host was amazing each time we communicated it was nice having the chairs and umbrella each day ! Would recommend watercrest if you want a more laid back family oriented experience.

Beautiful condo on the beach
The unit is nicely decorated and spacious enough for our family of 4. The guest room has 2 double beds and there are 2 sinks in the guest bath - these features were greatly appreciated by our teens. One weird thing- there's no door to the master bathroom, it's somewhat open to the bedroom. Otherwise, we were very comfortable.
The beach is amazing. The pool and hot tub are nice. There's a cute snack bar that sells burgers and fries and tropical drinks.
Overall, this unit was fantastic!

The condo listing was spot on. We loved being on the 3rd floor so we could take the stairs if we didn't want to wait on the elevator. The included chairs and umbrella were also great. Our family of 6 fit comfortably in the 2 bedrooms. We would definitely stay here again.

Short getaway
This property was very nice. The first thing we noticed when we came in was a broken tile that needs to be fixed. Couldn't get the TV to work in Master BR so leaving instructions would be great. The other thing we noticed right away that both soap dispensers in the kitchen and master bath had hairline cracks in them that made the soap ooze out and slippery if picked up. Those were just minor things. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay there again!

the property was good except the unit was cold when the wind blew from the west, which it did frequently. Sofas were not comfortable. A recliner would have been good for us older persons. Mainly the weather was just too cold for us to be paying to stay in the cold.

Beautiful location
The place was amazing, clean and comfortable. The rooms were super spacious, the beds were comfortable and clean, the showers spacious and the kitchen was well supplied. No trouble at all with checking, The only one issue we had was the dryer, after using it it did give an add 'odor' but that was the only issue. The view was amazing, and our balcony stretch from our master all around the living room.
I would definitely stay there over and over again, we are planning on taking our kids next summer and we hope to be able to get the same room.

Quick week getaway
Overall a good experience, location is great for less populated beach areas and traffic.
Honestly, the only negative thing we could say is based on description... says "The master bedroom suite has a king size bed with a TV and a spectacular view of the ocean for your enjoyment as soon as you open your eyes in the morning. "
This is a false statement as you can not see the ocean from the master bedroom.(neither bedroom for that matter) :-)
So, if that,s the only bad thing about an experience for a week long stay= again, its an overall great location/property!!
We would stay again

Ladies trip 2021
We were very pleased with the location and appearance of Watercrest condos and also the convenience of parking and our unit being on the 3 rd floor. The unit was well stocked in the kitchen and comfortable beds and linens. The beach and nice pool access was very close to the unit. I was very pleased with the peace and quite, access to elevators or stairs. I would definitely come back and recommend to family and friends. The owners were very prompt , friendly with response to any questions. The unit is everything a family or ladies group could ask for and more.
