Check in was not good but the condo was very nice.
Pros:

The condo was very nice.

Cons:

The check in process was not good. The owner forgot to send me the check in link and my passcode to get into the condo. The front desk ladies had to call him. Also, there’s a charge for parking.

Great Area to stay
Pros:

Loved the view of the ocean

Cons:

Getting on and off the elevators was hectic at times, plus I had a van that I couldn't park in garage so I had to go down the road to another resort and pay them to park

Tidewater Unit 2814
Pros:

Absolutely nothing. It is on the 28th floor. The security and maintenance were both very rude when the smoke detectors started going off at 6:30 in the morning, waking everyone. The owner of this unit was no help either as we found out he called a maintenance man that morning and did not follow up. At 6:30 that evening, the maintenance man shows up and has to change 3 of the 4 smoke detectors as they were from 2006. The water from the refrigerator leaked there were dripping faucets in the bathroom and THIS PLACE WAS NASTY, FLITHY!! THE BATHROOMS WERE NOT CLEAN!! WE SWEEP HAIRBALLS OUT FROM UNDER ONE OF THE BEDS, THE FUNITURE IS DIRTY, THE WIFI AND TV ABSOLUTELY STINK!! THE BALCONY WAS NASTY AND NEEDS TO BE CLEANED. ABSOLUTELY PROBABLY THE WORSE PLACE THAT I HAVE STAYED IN PCB. THE UNIT, THE FACILITY, THE STAFF, THE SECURITY, THE WHOLE 9 YARDS.

It was relaxing at the beach
Pros:

The amenities were good

Cons:

The elevator was so slow and not enough handicap parking and having to give your license to get a cart for luggage need to come up with a better system

We had a great time in a great condo.
Pros:

The view, and the host did everything to accommodate our needs asap.

Cons:

Elevators were terrible. Had trouble with the wifi until I reset it. Air unit was working but they sent someone out to fix it. Aĺl in all it was a great place to stay.

Not what was promised.
Pros:

I usually love Tidewater, but this time, one elevator was broke the entire stay and the facilities were dirty and the pool was very nasty and it gave everyone in our party a rash from all the scum that was on the top.

Cons:

The furniture in the condo was stained, old, and uncomfortable, the living room furniturewas not what was pictured in the advertisement. The beds were horrible, felt like sleep on rocks, will take my body a week or more to recover from it. The bathrooms were not clean, dishes in the cabinets were dirty, and all the untesils were just randomly thrown in drawers.

Very good
Pros:

1. The overlook of the beach - saw a lot of stingrays, dolphins and birds. Saw the Blue Angels multiple times a day, kids loved all of that!
2. Insanely hot water (shower)
3. Friendly folks
4. Pretty family friendly (theater, 3 pools, arcade, food on property, quick access to beach)

Cons:

1. Elevator wait (all times, not just check-in)
2. Several elevators were down for maintenance
3. Lots of construction right in front of resort, made walking (or leaving/entering) difficult
4. Indoor pool was down for maintenance
5. Wifi kept going out
6. Lights were TOO dim for a bathroom

Need to be updated ASAP
Pros:

I like the wait for the elevator was short and easy to check check-in. The spa hot tub was nice.

Cons:

As soon as you walk in the trip on the tile needs to be fixed ASAP. The condo was hot called they sent someone he looked and left nothing was said didn't know he left till I heard the door close. Balcony furniture needed to be thrown in the ocean couldn't sit on it so wobbled rips cushions the two tables on their last leg full of rust. They had a stick in the sliding door I don't understand why. The kitchen trash can was nasty they left use body wash in the all the showers. The main furniture had spots on it trash under the couch. The whole condo was nasty, floors were dirty I had to clean it before we unpacked.
