Our family really liked this unit, we stayed here in 2009 and again this year.With 3 teens, it could use 1 more TV. Furniture was dusty, nothing I couldn't handle. Master bathroom tub drain is very slow. Overall a very nice condo and hope to rent it again in 2011.
The North Beach Realty are extremely professional, the maintenance of Crescent Keyes building was a definite 5 star!
We have vacationed in Myrtle Beach the last 8 years and have stayed at Crescent Keyes about 1/2 of that time and feel this is the best condo in the area. The process with North Beach Realty was very smooth and the staff is very helpful. Look forward returning again real soon.
My family and I stayed in Unit 801 between May 28th and 31st. The room was clean. There were a few spots on the carpet, but other than that the room was very clean. The balcony was a great size and there was a pretty good view of the ocean. The room sleeps 7 people with a twin and full size bed in one bedroom, a king size bed in the other, and a pullout sofa in the living room. We were all very pleased with the room, and I would stay again.
When I go into a unit I clean and sanitize. The carpet needs cleaned!! Upon arrival we noticed lots of spills that prior tenants had not cleaned up. The the top of stove had not been cleaned with ceramic cleaner (it was a mess). I had to clean prior to use. I purchased cleaner and spent at least 1 hour removing as much of the mess as I could. TV's need upgraded (very outdated)and kitchen is not adequate for those cooking many meals. We purchased a couple of cereal bowls and left in the unit. Hopefully this info will help for future renters. We realize everyone does not treat the place they stay in like their own but we do!!!!
My only complaints are that the owner needs to replace the dishes, some are chipped and there isn't even a full service for four. The non-stick pots and pans also need to be replaced because they are all scratched. I would recommend not having non-stick ones at all because renters are not careful when using them. The coffee pot neds to be replaced because the base is rusted. Other than that the unit itself is lovely, well maintained and has a good view for an ocean view unit.
This is a very nice condo and very relaxing. We were a little disappointing that the 6th floor hot tubs and baby pool were out of order but the ocean side tubs still worked. I understand things break and the contractors were out on monday refinishing the area. The Condo is just steps away from the beach so you can make easy trips to your room if you need to refill the cooler. Overall we were happy and would stay their again. Also the "ocean view" was nice and it allowed us to see the sunrise.
Bring extra towles with you.
I enjoy cooking in. The unit could use a little more kitchen items,a few more dishes,pot holders and pans. Guests should really be careful of others peoples belongings. Overall a wonderful place and would stay there again.
We had a blast! The condo was great, the view was beautiful, the management was perfect, and our time there was priceless! Our two small boys (3yrs & 18 months)loved having their own space and I never want to vacation any other way! It was a bit of a drive to some of the more popular attractions, but at the price it could not have been better! Very Happy! Overall 5 stars!
Very relaxing week of vacation. Housekeeping was excellent which is a problem we have been encountering for the last few years with other big rental companies....friendly & helpful staff. Very pleased with condo. Could use a few additions to kitchen and consideration of a better mattress in the master bedroom but overall very pleased and we will be back!!
The overall condition of the condo is nice, we had to go out purchase items to cook with, there were no pot holders, and there were utensils missing. The carpet transfer piece had sharp edges sticking up, and the masterbedroom mattress could use an upgrade. Overall it was nice just needs a few things done to make it much better. I would rent it again.
The unit (801) was very nice. When I opened the door for the first time, I was very impressed with what I saw. My stay here was a good one. The only negative was that the ceiling fan in bedroom #2 did not work. I went to North Beach Realty and reported this and they said they would send someone to look at it. Well, that never happened. It got very hot in that room in the evening.
Bed in master had large indention on one side. Someone had taken the small light bulbs out of the master BR lamps to use in master bath, replaced these so we could see in bathroom. AT 3AM, smoke detector started chirping, because battery was dead/low. Coffee cups had chips.Couch was not comfortable, sagged.decorated nice, good pillows, sheets and towels. Nice location, very secure building
Also, the quality of the pull out sofa was very poor. The condo was nicely decorated though!! Probably would not stay here again!! But everyone at North Beach Realty was great!! Victoria was a sweetheart to work with!! Very helpful!!
