Sand & Sea (312) Coastal Range - Pet Friendly

Everyone was friendly and attentive. I appreciated the frequent check ins making sure we were enjoying our stay. They even checked in during the storm, ensuring we were prepared. The kitchen was well stocked and was a pleasure to cook and dine in. There were plenty of pillows and towels. I loved the balcony. It was a wonderful stay.

The site description (and photos) plus its ideal/gorgeous location hooked us... sadly the reality was less than advertised, First, we needed an elevator for one of us with limited mobility; we communicated this ahead of time. Of the two elevators, only one was operating when we arrived. And then that one stopped working two days before we checked out. The front desk staff are wonderfully helpful, but there wasn't much they could do since they were waiting for technicians to repair even the first one. It felt like sheer negligence. Thank goodness we could manage on floor 3 (with difficulty) going up/down the outdoor stairs; felt sorry for those on higher floors. DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE IF YOU NEED AN ELEVATOR or can't haul your stuff over many flights of stairs. We did like the kitchen. WiFi great. The other furnishings were OK; the Goodwill lamps added an unnecessary shabbiness. The open living, dining, kitchen lovely floor/celing large windows and terrace with beautiful views were cheapened by very old, dusty, shredded curtains. The balcony had only one outdoor end table and chair. We didn't want to lug the dining chairs so we rarely used that space. The primary bedroom's very worn window blinds weren't clean. The doors (off the entrance hall) had chipped/peeled/paint adding yet more to the shabby feel. We can only assume that the other units in the complex are similar. For such a beautiful location, the friendliness of service, and the high price we expected more.

We received many helpful communications before and during our stay. The property was exactly as expected, which we always appreciate. The only difference is in how pleasantly surprised we were at how spacious it is. Thanks for the great experience.

Super satisfied with the quality of this place for what we paid! Despite the south facing windows, we still had a lovely view of the ocean with the floor to ceiling wall of windows. The kitchen was great to cook in with the large island and high powered dish washer. Loved that they had extra blankets supplied. Would love to stay again next time we are in Seaside! Being right on the boardwalk and a block from the Main Street, location couldn’t be better.

This was our third visit and continue to enjoy our stay. Minor comment, there were no liners for waste basket. Fire place quit working; however, the maintenance person responded quickly and fixed the problem. Will be returning next year. Gary
