This area was hit by Hurricane Helene, so I contacted them 2 weeks after the hurricane to see if our reservation was still good. I was assured everything was fine. This was 2 months PRIOR to our check-in date.
Fast forward to the day of check-in. At 4:15PM -15 minutes after check-in started - I received a call from the property manager. We were unable to stay at the property because it had been damaged by the hurricane! They had another property available to us on the same street that we could use instead.
At this point, we were 9 hours into a 10 hour drive. We had not other options but to take the other property. Had they been honest when I emailed them 2 months ago, we would have had time to find another beachfront property, or at least been given a choice. But they chose to be dishonest because they didn't want to lose the sale.
The townhouse we stayed in was fine, but I wouldn't have ever rented it, if given a choice. Our reservation was a cottage ON THE BEACH with beachview balconies! They put us in a townhouse on the corner of 2 streets without a balcony and we couldn't see the ocean. The whole point was to be ON the ocean.
They are still renting out this cottage -- even though it's closed for renovations. I find this to be dishonest and misleading.
Sadly, this experience has made us go back to staying in hotels because they seem more reliable at this point. Please do not rent this property.

Hi Barbra, thank you for sharing your feedback about your stay. After reviewing your comments, the homeowner wanted to provide some clarification:
- The original property you booked was impacted by the hurricane, and while initial repairs had begun, the renovations were not completed by the time of your check-in.
- To ensure your stay wasn't disrupted, we offered an alternative—a four-bedroom townhouse just two houses down from the beach. This townhouse had a balcony and additional parking space, which you indicated was suitable for your group.
Thank you for your feedback, as it helps us improve the guest experience.
Perfect location, just steps from the beach and Mandalay Ave with all the shops and restaurants you'd need. JR, the owner, was very responsive. We will definitely be back!

This place was the perfect location for staying on the beach, and had a great beach vibe. The check in process was seamless, and communicated well in advance, giving peace of mind that everything would be smooth and it was!

Both my fiance and I enjoyed our stay at the Sea Turtle Suite Condo! Very quiet location and within walking distance of the busy Clearwater Beach. This one bedroom- one bath was the perfect space for us. The bathroom was a little small, but everything else was perfect for two people! We will definitely be back for another stay!
