Wonderful condo!
I stayed at this condo this past weekend with my Mom to celebrate her 70th birthday. It was a wonderful place to stay. Clean, comfortable, and a great location. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach. We also enjoyed the thoughtful details in this condo - it had everything we needed!

Updated condo in great location
We enjoyed our stay. The condo accommodated our family of four well. We enjoyed the tennis courts and playground. It’s convenient to biking trails and the beach. The large kitchen island open to the living room was a nice design.

Deposit fee takes forever to be refunded
Place is awesome and super nice and clean. However, dishwasher did not work and the fact that there was a tab already in tells me that it was not working before. Main issue for only 2 stars overall is the fact that I had to wait almost 2 weeks to get my deposit back. This is way too long for such a large amount.

Close to the ocean, disappointing about BBQ being mentioned, outdoor cast iron grill not maintained. Issues with appliances some were a bit beyond their useful life.

Superb Location
The location of this property is ideal, at the entrance to Forest Ridge, a short walk to a nice section of quiet beach and within beach walking distance of Slider’s and the action at Seaside. Located mid-island, everything worth seeing and doing on Amelia is easily accessible from here. Forest Ridge itself is a quiet condo community of residents and renters, and at least in the off-season it’s peaceful and friendly. We found the unit itself to be comfortable and reasonably equipped. Appliances are modern, including a very nice washer and dryer, plenty of storage space in the kitchen and master bedroom. The rental agent was accessible and very accommodating, promptly addressing two issues we had upon arrival: The tub/shower drain was clogged – a plumber was quickly dispatched and made a short-term fix but the problem was recurring by the end of our 3-week stay – and the deck was moldy and dirty – the agent sent someone to scrub off the mold. The unit could use a good housecleaning; it wasn’t dirty, but it was minimally clean.

Cute little condo- family fun!
This was a cute little family condo that accommodated 5 of us for five nights just fine. Beach access 24 is being worked on, so we drove to access 25 or some other beaches. Everything is 30 minutes or less in proximity!! Great vacation! Thanks for a great stay in a great place.
