We have stayed at this complex several times (our daughter even got married there in 2018). Always have a positive experience while staying there.

This was our 10 year anniversary of getting away together. We are from Illinois and decided the beach would be a great anniversary present!

The view was perfect

10/10

We were very pleased with our stay at Island Echos 6BC. The condo was clean and welcoming. We had everything we needed for a wonderful, relaxing stay. There was a great amount of space for everyone to watch a movie or eat together in the living/dining room area, as well as, plenty of individual space in the bedrooms & adjoining bathrooms. We are definitely looking forward to next year....if we can wait that long! 😀

Super clean, incredible kitchen setup. Everything supplied, at least to get started. Gorgeous views. Easy access to beach and pool. I would have given it a 5 except we had both TV reception problems and early on, unpredictable Internet. Vacasa was very responsive and we had the cable guy out three times. The internet got fixed but the living room TV continued to be annoying. The bedroom TVs worked much better for some reason. All in all it is a beautiful place and we will be back.

After checking in and getting our door code, we went to the beach. The code didn't work, but it was after 5pm, it took an hour and a half to get someone to get a new code. That is not good. There needs to be a better way to reach a staff worker.

The photos look great, however, upon arrival you'll find that the unit is quite dated and a little dirty. The doors and light switches are covered in grime to the point we purchased cleaning supplies upon arrival to sanitize the unit. The ceiling above one of the bathtubs was leaking and causing drywall to fall into the tub. However, the view was great and beach access was perfect. My only other complaint was that even though our condo slept 8 people, you were only provided with two chairs and one umbrella for free. You could purchase additional chairs for $50 per day which is a bit steep... the spacing of the chairs are also not 6 feet apart but we were able to ask to be moved and the beach attendant graciously obliged.

The unit was beautifully furnished and perfectly furnished for a group of our size, 7. The location on the beach with use of a beach umbrella and chair was awesome!! However, something so small, but that was ignored by Vacasa put a damper on our vacation. When we entered, we were met by a weird smell right by the door. We didn’t notice it further into the unit. In one of the rooms the smell of sewage was very strong. We came to discover that the rug in the bedroom was completely soaked. No one had used a shower or anything at this point. It smelled like a toilet had overflowed into the room before our arrival and the rug was left soaking wet in the room for us to potentially put our stuff on. I immediately reached out to the Guest Services text message asking for someone to mop the floor or at least provide us with cleaning materials after we, ourselves, moved the rug out onto the balcony. I was ignored on more than one occasion, the text saying let me reach out to local staff with no response after. This was such a small thing but the guest service that was provided in response was pretty infuriating. I wouldn’t mind going to this location again because it was beautiful but I’m a little wary going through Vacasa again.

We enjoy this location. The beach is great and area isn't busy. We did have a couple issues and concerns: Upon arrival the dishwasher did not work. I reported it and a maintenance guy came out the next day and said it didn't work. Never heard anything else about it until our last night and another guy came out and said it didn't work. We really didn't want to hand wash dishes all week, but it was all we could do. The toaster is broken on the left side and doesn't pop-up. The kitchen is very small. Two people fill it up when your trying to cook. Also, one of the bath/showers is so high that it's not safe to step over without fear of slipping and falling. It is the only bath option in the condo. Also, some of the AC vents were molding and needs to be clean. They are doing construction and have both outside stairwells blocked. One day they started making noise at 7am. The stairs being closed are a safety concern too. We had a fire alarm while we were there and this condo is at the very end next to the closed stairwell. We had to walk to the center to the stairs which would be an issue if the fire was between this condo and the center stairs. This room come with 2 chairs and an umbrella. We had rain off and on during our week. There were a couple days that our chairs weren't put out or only for a couple hours, but the neighboring condos had theirs out. So, people staying here had to use towels or not sit. They do ask that you keep your air on 72 which is warm for us.

The condo was spacious enough to hold our entrie family from other condos. We enjoyed the condo.

6/10

We got there at 3:54 and had to wait until 4:00 exactly before the code would work. When we walked in it was fairly clean. It was a quite place but the lady that worked there was constantly harassing people at the pool about their drinks and the pool was never cleaned the 6 days we were there. There’s very few chairs and if you tried to move a chair she was telling you that wasn’t allowed! She was the only one that would say anything and when she did it was very rude! The beach access and umbrella setup was easy and just like any other condo. The balcony was very spacious and nice. The condo itself was great but I don’t know that we would stay here again bc of the experience.

Island Echos has always been amazing stay for my family. This unit is no exception. Plenty of room, plenty of amenities, amazing view, etc. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

This condo offers tons of space, comfortable beds, and a great location. We will definitely be back!

6/10

We were disappointed with this property due to the problems from aging and overuse. The living room furniture was stained. We had to hold the handle down to flush the master toilet. The sliding door in the master was so hard to open we rarely used it. The dryer took numerous cycles to dry even small loads. These were just some of the major issues we encountered. Overall we were extremely disappointed since the condition of this unit does not justify the cost of this unit. We take one major vacation once a year and this was it, and if I could get a refund I would feel justified in doing so.

This is our favorite room we spent Christmas 2021 and Easter 2022 here. This unit exceeded our expectations the very first time and we plan to try to book this unit more in the future, 4th of July, Labor Day and any holiday in between!

This place was just as promised. Very clean, easy to check in and out. Everything you could think of needing was there. Kitchen was very well stocked. Bonus was finding sand toys in the closet , as we forgot ours! We all felt very safe here, girls even went out and used the tennis courts at 9:30pm, and this momma didn’t need to worry about them!! Neighborhood was very quiet, which was very pleasant surprise. Touristy but not busy touristy!! I would definitely use Vacasa to plan another week away!!

Our stay in unit 6bc was due to having to be swapped to this unit from another horrible unit. 6bc was much better than the first unit. However, it is a little outdated. We had enough bedrooms for everyone. We were in the area for a family wedding and it was close to the wedding venue. After the wedding we returned to 6bc and could not get in. The keyless entry gave us a problem the whole time were there. We had a disabled person staying with us and we all had to wait on the balcony for 30-45 minutes. Once I called one of the ladies that helped me get changed to this unit, she helped us get in right away. I stayed at Island Echo in October 2018 and was very satisfied with everything. This trip in 2021 was not as satisfactory. I do not think I will stay at Island Echo again. I can only say that "Ms. Phyllis" was our only saving grace during our stay at Island Echo.

This unit was a real surprise! 3 bedrooms AND 3 bathrooms??!! A family dream come true..... Well-appointed, with a lovely, LARGE family space. The balcony area had ample seating for everyone to gather for the sunset. I would definitely rent this unit again!
