South Seas Tower 3 #606

We arrived at South Seas Tower 3 at the beginning of the Coronavirus shutdown. No trouble getting there and after entering #606 and seeing the view, we knew we had made the right decision to go on with our vacation. Mornings spent on the veranda, afternoons at the ocean beach, and wonderful meals from Marco Island restaurants made for the perfect week. Yes, it was a trek out to the beach, but that was the only exercise we got! Renting a condo rather than going to a resort turned out to be a great decision. With the large beach and the suite in Tower 3, we had minimal contact with others and were able to stay our entire week before going home to the shelter in place edicts. My favorite part of the stay was mornings and evenings spent on the veranda with the beautiful views.

Our condo was excellent. We were sent directions for the keys and sign-in process the week before our vacation. The ocean only steps away. Great restaurants just a short drive. We will be back next year.

Nice upgraded kitchen, beds were comfortable, condo was clean on arrival, accommodations were perfect for 4 adults. Easy walking distance to several nice restaurants and stores, and a short (1/2 mile) walk to the beach. Some of our activities included walking, fishing and shelling on the beach. The farmers market has great fresh produce, and the Knights of Columbus sponsors several musical shows during the year. South Seas Towers is well maintained, and all staff were helpful and friendly. We had a few minor issues that Harborview Reality took care of in a timely manor. We found WiFI to be spotty at times, especially in the bedrooms at night, Overall we all enjoyed and stay, and will be back again next year.

Had a great time! This was our 2nd time staying at South Seas Towers. Condo was freshly renovated and everything was beautiful! Location is fantastic!

The condo was as advertised. Decent amenities, size, and furnishings. The balcony had a great view of the ocean. The location of the condo is great and very convenient, near everything on the island. It was a quick walk to the beach, which is nice even though it takes a while to get from sand to the water. The only real issue we had was the constant and prevalent construction. The large building was getting windows replaced for many of its units. This work occurred 5 days a week from 7:30 AM to 5 PM. We had lifts located on each side of our corner condo and it sounded like a war zone most of the time, inside and out. The beach was also getting re-graded by the city, so a massive section was roped off with bulldozers and other equipment working 6 days a week. This greatly decreased the ambience of the entire experience. I know this is not the fault of the rental company or owner. However, some greater transparency on this issue would have been nice so we would at least have known to expect this and choose elsewhere if this would not work for us. Additionally, I think the price could have been lowered somewhat in light of these constant disturbances. I would recommend calling the property directly to get the construction schedule prior to booking the next time. Other than that, it was an all and all beautiful location and experience.

tHE CARPETING NEEDED CLEANING -- MANY SPOTS.MATTRESS IN MASTER BEDROOM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.OTHERWISE UNIT WAS FINE.

This building is a location we have stayed at before. We were not disappointed. The condo has a wonderful view of the gulf. With two teenage boys, the accommodations were perfect. Ample room to play games, eat, cook, or just sit around and relax.

My family spent a wonderful week in this condo, we loved it! The view of the gulf is beautiful, condo has everything and more. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

My family and I had a wonderful stay at South Seas Tower 3. Our unit was very nice and had a great view. The location was close to everything. We would definitely stay there again.

This is the 5th. time in the past 9 years we have stayed in this unit. The owner continues to make improvements in a unit that is in good shape! I convinced a friend from Denver to stay a couple of years ago. he was also impressed. Boy this is small!!! I would recommend a purchase of a set of sharp knives along with some new teflon fry pans. Small items compared to the major improvements they continue to make on major items!!!

Overall we really liked the condo. The floor plan is great, the view spectacular. The condo unit was extremely clean and you can tell a big effort is made. The overall building is old and musty. It is a very far walk from the beach so you need to make sure that you are prepared when you go. No such thing as running back to the room to get something. Also, the property definitely caters to retired people over young families. Many rules that scream"we don't like kids" eg. can only have pool toys in the pool during two 1 hours slots during the day. If you are at the beach, then it really isn't an issue.

We enjoyed our vacation and our room at 3 #606 very much. This condo has everything that you could ask for. We have only one suggestion. One of the single lounge chairs in the TV area could be replaced. It has lost some of its comfortable support.

The condo was very clean and attractive. I would stay there again.

I've used Harborview for probably 15 years and stayed in one of two codos during that time. We have used unit #606 for the past 4 or 5 visits. Great unit! Te owners have great discipline remodeling all items on a regular basis. We will continue to return!
