Stayed July 2024
"Fantastic! - It does have a limited ocean view from the balcony and two of the rooms, which was lovely. The beach access was also fantastic...right across the street and down the flight of stairs. The kitchen was appointed with the basics, and we used the grill in the common area, although one of the grills was not working. The pool was right next to this unit so pool access was also excellent. We loved the area and had a fantastic stay. We would definitely rent this unit again!"

"Everything was great except for the WiFi- minimal service in the condo except for the kitchen."

Dustin, Thank you for the 5-star review. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay overall. We apologize for the issues with the WiFi coverage in the condo and we will discuss improvement portions with the owner for their consideration. We hope you'll join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

"Great place, lovely location and very spacious and comfortable. Really enjoyed our stay here, the place has everything you need.
A few improvement points or maybe some pointers to future stayers, on arrival the apartment barely has a “starter kit”, no simple amenities like salt/pepper olive oil or similar( including toiletries) it comes completely bare which is strange considering the higher price of these units. Salt and pepper/olive oil barely costs $5 and very simple to include.
Also expected to ensure the place is “clean upon leaving( trash etc. out) though a hefty cleaning fee is included but understand this is also an Airbnb issue.
Overall really great stay and would highly recommend"

Cameron, Thank you for the 5-star review. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay and found the location, space, and comfort of the apartment to your liking. You should have gotten an email prior to your stay letting you know that we provide starters of kitchen and bathroom essentials so you should plan to bring these items from home or purchase them once you get here. This is for safety reasons. We appreciate your recommendation and hope you'll join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

"My stay at Waterhouse was amazing. Great beach views and a fantastic management company.
RealJoy Vacations handled my questions quickly and thoroughly and went above and beyond.
They reached out a day after my check-in to see how my stay was. It was nice to see they cared.
The condo was extremely clean, stocked, and well-maintained. One of the cleanest places I’ve stayed in on 30A.

"My stay at Waterhouse has been amazing. Great beach views and a fantastic management company. RealJoy Vacations handled my questions quickly and thoroughly and went above and beyond to help make my family comfortable during our Spring Break visit from Austin.
When I arrived, there was a great basket of treats! And they reached out a day after my check-in to see how my stay was- they definitely take customer service seriously! The condo was extremely clean, well stocked, and well-maintained- in top notch condition, much better than other rentals we've had over the years. We'll probably come back here next year."

"Great Week at Waterhouse - This was our 2nd stay at Waterhouse, first time renting through Real Joy. The unit was great! Perfect layout for our family of 5. Clean, well stocked, and easy access to the beach. Check in was easy. Great view of the ocean. Large house under construction right across the street - will be gorgeous when it’s completed. Grills were out of order, so hopefully they will be repaired soon. (Although that is out of the control of Real Joy). Overall, great trip! We did a Wed-Wed rental, which greatly helped with traffic (driving from Illinois) and allowed us to enjoy a calm, less-busy changeover day on Saturday. Highly recommend!"
Stayed June 2021
"We had a wonderful experience and would stay in this condo again. It was clean and very comfortable. It felt more like a home than a beach condo. The location is perfect and central to most things in the area. Beach access is easy and it was nice having the available beach service with chairs and umbrellas."

"The location and walk to the private beach is perfect along this stretch of 30A. We were able to easily get to rosemary/seacrest on one side and SeaGrove on the other. The pool was a nice relief from the beach and the views were perfect. Not sure how that will be impacted once the construction of the house (which is mentioned in your check in info) will impact the view but opening the balcony to the sounds of the ocean was just what we needed! The only thing I would add (Or bring with) would be a couple blankets."

"Great Condo! Great Location! - We had a wonderful time. It was clean and well maintained. The large balcony is nice and it’s right across the street from the beach. But heads up, there are a LOT of stairs to walk down to get to the beach so be prepared for that. The amenities at the complex were very nice too. If you like to cook, please note that all of the words and numbers on the stove and oven are rubbed off so it’s very difficult to cook anything without guessing. Also, if you like to have extra blankets and comforters, bring your own. There are no additional linens/blankets than the very thin ones on the beds. And I was freezing because my guests liked to keep it cool in the condo. There was plenty of room in the common space for all 6 of us to hang out at the same time. The twin beds in the 3rd bedroom are very squeaky so if you’re a light sleeper, grab one of the other rooms. Check in and check out were easy and streamlined. All in all it was a fantastic experience!"

"Absolutely loved our stay in Seacrest Beach, Florida - The 3 bedroom Waterhouse Condominium was exactly as advertised,
Beautiful view to the gulf and top notch accommodations in the unit. Would highly recommend this unit for any family looking for a place to sleep 8 comfortably - all rooms are well furnished and have a large size TV imperative for the kids, that will be with you on your stay.
4th floor provides easy access to the pool, hot tub and owners lounge; the beach is a short walk across 30A - the view from the deck is unobstructed and has a clear view to the Emerald Isles waters of the gulf.
In summary, trust me when I tell you that you can’t go wrong with this rental unit,

The balcony is large with comfortable lounging chairs and a nice table for enjoying meals outside. The kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed. Also the rooftop pool and hot tub area was awesome with beautiful views. Very clean, well kept electric grills are available on the rooftop also."

"A perfect, relaxing week! - I was taking my teenage girls on spring break by myself, and was worried about running in different directions all week. This property was the reason we had a perfect, relaxing week! The unit is gorgeous, nicely decorated, and well-appointed. I love to cook, and the kitchen is stocked with every utensil and pan you might need, even a waffle maker which was a nice surprise! I was able to sit on the balcony and enjoy every sunrise while my girls slept, and many sunsets while my girls rode bikes. The unit is well designed so that everyone had their own spacious retreat but we also could come together in the living room and enjoy the balcony views. The fantastic, heated pool is right next door, so I could supervise them and still cook dinner or entertain friends. Many evenings were spent jumping from the hot tub to the pool given a slight spring chill, and many selfies were taken with the best sunset view on 30a! We rode bikes to Seaside and Rosemary (which were crowded and crazy), enjoyed the Hub in Watersound, and walked miles on the beaches, which were so quiet given the crowds just a few miles away. I loved having use of the beach chairs and umbrellas, which kept me from lugging a cart back and forth and was much appreciated. I would love to come back every year; I wouldn't change a thing! Easy and fabulous! Thank you for sharing this special place."
