I stayed in corner unit 501 with 3 friends. The condo was beautiful and so spacious! The unit was clean, well equipped, and we never came across something we needed and didn't have. Beds were comfy, towels provided were great, and the complex as a whole was well taken care of. And of course, the view was amazing! The lounger on the balcony is broken, but still somehow amazingly comfortable! Great location, easy walk to John's Pass!
This was THE perfect location. We will totally stay here again. The view was amazing, the unit was very clean and had lots of extra items (beach toys, beach chairs, a cooler, ice machine, beach towels) we loved it. It's also great that you can walk down to Cabby's on the beach and play fun games, listen to great music, get food, drinks and walk home). The pool and hot tub were nice and the grounds were well maintained. Parking is by permit only but there were plenty of spaces.
See Breeze 603: Paid a premium to stay beach front with no communication from the host that the beach was full of dead fish due to red tide. I’ll never forget that smell!! Tractors were patrolling the beach to scoop up all of the dead fish, it was disgusting. The pool was small and very overcrowded because no one was at the beach. The elevator only works sometimes. No beach towels in unit. Master shower didn’t work. Guest toilet didn’t flush. Guest bedroom light didn’t work. Patio door didn’t close well. Blinds were broken so couldn’t open them to see the ocean/sunset. Kitchen lacked certain basics. Needed to be in unit 2 out of 4 days for maintenance and plumber. At MINIMUM the host could have notified us about red tide so we could plan activities off-beach. Lack of communication and basic necessities made for a miserable vacation. (NOTE: even tried to reach Sandcastle Realty about this review prior to posting it and got no response.)…
I’m not someone who expects perfection when I travel but I’ve stayed in 100 year old cabins in northern Minnesota that were cleaner than this condo. Our first ever vacation to Florida, many years ago, was in Madeira Beach and we love it to this day. We stayed in Sea Breeze many times. Sadly over the years we saw the condition/cleanliness decline and stopped going about 15 years ago after booking through TRS and having a negative experience. Hoping that time had changed things we just came back from a four day stay at the Sea Breeze, booked again through TRS, and will not stay there or rent from TRS ever again. We chose the “no contact” arrival, because we were not getting in until 9pm and wanted to just be able to pick up our keys from the lock box. After we got our packet from the lock box and driving to the condo we discovered our parking passes were not in the envelope. Tired from traveling, we had to drive back down the street to their 24 hour office, at another condo building, and pick up a parking pass. So much for the quick “no contact” arrival. The location of Sea Breeze is perfect. Walking distance to everything. The view of the beach from the balcony is breathtaking and the units are perfect for a beach vacation. That said, the unit was filthy. They stress how important cleanliness is because of COVID, but those are merely words on the TRS website. The tile floor in the condo was so dirty that our feet were black not long after showering. Sand on the floor would be one thing…you are on the beach. I would not be alarmed to find some sand still on the floor, but sand wouldn’t turn my feet black. The floors were obviously filthy. The comforter on the bed in the second bedroom was dirty. When we went to make coffee the first morning, the front of the coffee maker was so dirty and grimy that the buttons were sticky. We had to wipe down the coffee maker. The control panel on the dishwasher was also filthy. The patio furniture on the balcony was filthy. I sent two emails, with photos, to someone in the office that I had corresponded with previously. They did not reply to me until the day we checked out. They said they were not back in the office until the day they replied. That may or may not be true. And yes, I could have called the office that first day to complain, however during our stay we spoke to several other guests (almost every time we got on the elevator) who said they did call to complain but either got no response from management or spoke to rude office staff. Everyone else we talked to also had issues with their unit being dirty. Some said they had mold in their unit. Thankfully we did not find mold in ours. By the time I would have called the office and had someone out to clean it would have been too late. We had already wiped down the things that were dirty and I didn’t want someone coming in while we were down on the beach. The point is it should have been clean to start with. These things are not someone forgetting to wipe off a coffee maker. It is obvious the bare minimum is done to clean between guests. Dirty bedding and filthy appliances and furniture is just unacceptable. It is truly a shame. I realize someone owns that unit and TRS manages it. I just hope the owners realize the filth their guests are staying in. TRS is ruining the Sea Breeze building and I will never rent in any building managed by them again.…
Absolutely beautiful place. Our condo was so nice, all updated. The view is unbelievable from the balcony. I recommend an end unit cause they have side windows all the way thru the condo. Elevator is slow as hell. I also noticed our beach went all the way to the pool where all the others had to walk thru grassy dunes to get to the beach. I cant wait to go back.
We had friends who stayed in one unit and it was clean and very nice. Our unit was dated and filthy. Reserved through TRS and we emailed them but they still haven’t replied 3 days later. Extremely dirty floors, food stuck to the stove and utensils, visibly dirty light switches, door handles, thermostat controls. The worst was the stained, unwashed sheets. When we stripped them off the bed, there were food and chips under the sheet! Really pretty gross and night and day from the other unit we saw. We spent the first day cleaning and sanitizing ourselves and made the best of our vacay with family and friends but it was a big disappointment.
Beautifully laid out apartments with a perfect view of the beach. Spacious, well maintained and equipped, comfortable and situated in the heart of most happening part of the City of Madeira Beach. Walk right into the beach anytime of the day or just sit back in the balcony to enjoy the ocean view.
We have stayed in several units at Sea Breeze but this was the first One Bedroom One Bath. It was perfect for hubby and I. The owners have thought of everything. The kitchen had everything you could ever need! The bathroom had a hair dryer and a hand held mirror which was such a nice touch. There were all sorts of beach chairs, beach toys, books, games, movies. The bed is very comfortable. Furniture on the balcony was very nice and much appreciated as we spend a lot of time out there. Sea Breeze is walking distance to John’s Pass and Candy Kitchen. A 7Eleven just across the street. The owners are so easy to work with and we have already booked for next year. If I had to list a negative it would be that the bedroom is near the elevator but it didn’t create a noise issue as we were there during slow season. …
absolutely gorgeous we were in 704 hoping same unit will be available for us cannot wait to return may have to come twice a year my friends and my family nearby loved it and we had a great time ***** 5 stars
Nice but nothing special not at all equipped for short stay guests. For a short 3 day stay we had to purchase toilet paper, bath soap, dishwasher soap, beach towels. Had to go shopping for essentials as soon as we arrived. Have never been to a place that didn’t even had at least 1 bar soap sample or 1 dishwasher tablet! Living-room furniture dingy and very used. Condo offered great ocean view and good security. Only close place to shop is 7-11 across the street. Closest restaurants 3/4 mile away in both directions. Nice pool, hot tub and beach access.
