Could use more electrical outlets in the bedroom or provide a power strip and the mattress slopes in the middle making it hard to get a good nights sleep.

Working remotely from the beach!

This property was the perfect place for my husband and I to get away. We were able to work remotely and enjoy the ocean views and the beach. The place was clean and as described. The only negative was the noise from the construction during the day but not and issue for us. Would totally stay here again!

The condo was comfortable, nicely appointed and easy to navigate. Our only complaint is the mattress. The mattress needs to be replaced. When laying on it you roll to the middle. This should be a priority!

Great location

Condo located right on the beach was as advertised. Well laid out and quiet on the end of the building next to the stairs. The included 2 beach chairs and umbrella was a great addition to the week! The rentals were very expensive and glad they were included with the rental. Vacasa was also great to work with as their communication with us was top notch. If we go to this area again, we would definitely stay at Island Echos again!

The balcony is lovely. Many updates have been made to the unit. Having beach chairs and umbrella included was a big plus. The mattress was lacking. Had back pain every morning.

Awesome Stay

This was our first VRBO and condo vacation. It was a dream come true. The place had everything you could want and more. The view was outstanding and unlike our past vacations in hotels even our neighbors were quite. Wednesday night we got a message from Resort Quest App that said there was going to be fireworks at the boardwalk. No problem. We watched them just fine from our balcony. The only thing we didn't like was leaving. We already are planning our next stay.

Nice condo and property. But the bed should be removed NOW. It is ridiculously soft and actually difficult to move around on. There is a dip horizontally in the middle that you sink into, then your get end up higher than your head. It feels like there is no support!!!! My husband is an average man but I rolled down toward him. He also got a back ache daily from sleeping on this bed. The bath could use an update but was clean.
