It could use a few things to fix it up. I would have liked to see a few more amenities like dish towels,pot holders, pizza cutter. There was only one role of toilet paper in each bathroom for our family of 9 and one roll of paper towels. Would have been nice for an extra trash bag and an extra roll of TP. Again not a big things just a few little. Overall this place was very good!! I would recommend

The host was accessible throughout stay. Condo was very close to the beach and had a wonderful view. The condo was somewhat outdated and needs updating and painting. The hot water heater was not large enough and we ran out each night with cold showers. The kitchen needs potholders and more forks and a Pyrex baking dish.

Loved the access to beach and great pool. Only wish the outdoor furniture was better quality and more comfortable because sitting on balconies was very important to our family. It needs to be upgraded and replaced. Comfortable beds and kitchen was well equipped. Definitely would consider staying here again.

Kicking off the Summer with the Family

We really enjoyed our stay in Santa Rosa. The location was fabulous!! Right on the beach and close walking distance to shops and Restaurants. This unit met our family needs perfectly! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the balconies had lovely furniture with plenty of comfortable seating.

5 stars for convenience!

Seahaunts 1A is excellent for convenience. It's oceanfront view, pool access, and easy walk to restaurants and shopping make it perfect for families with kids. Very easy to get around. The unit is good size and worked well with our group. The cleanliness could be better. The sheets were mediocre. Some minor maintenance issues, like the peeling paint on the banister and the condensation on the air vents that dripped onto the floor. Although there were some issues, I would rent there again because like I said, the convenience is perfect.
