Southern Coast Vacation Rentals — Attraction in Upper Grand Lagoon

We were told there might be occasional noise . 4 out of 7 days we were awoken at 8AM lasting for atleast 3 hours to a hammer drill in concrete. There are very few noises louder on a construction site. 50 men and 7-10 trucks was a mess. Sometimes we had to park across the street and walk our groceries back across 98 while the workers made themselves at home all over the property. Id have canceled my trip had I know it would be like this! All we asked for in compensation was beach chairs to no avail. Mold and failing sheetrock on the ceilings from the units above leaking in the bathroom and kitchen. When you took a hot shower you could smell the mold pouring of of the sheetrock. Can't imagine the black mold behind the sheetrock. You can see where they paint over the new mold every week. A brown nugget of material on the vanity, a pubic hair in the bed and hand wiped plates in the cupboard. Our feet turned black walking around the unit. We have stayed at Seachase atleast 6 times prior but this place has gone downhill. We nicknamed this area as "Meth"ama City. It is dirty rundown and doesn't feel safe. If I were bringing daughters I would keep a close eye on them due to the heavy concentration of day laborers working on this job not to mention the rif raf passing through on foot daily! All we wanted were some chairs on the beach to compensate us and all we were offered were the same coupons they already offered us that they get for free to get people in local attractions. Piss poor management piss poor place made for a piss poor vacation! Thanks Seachase ! Not planning to revisit this corner of Meth"ama City again! Good Riddance!

The company has posted below my review and it's total lies I have pictures. I also have the emails and I threatened noone. Hammer drill 8 AM 4 days in a row. Yeah Im just a mean old customer upset about beach chairs. The condition of the place was unacceptable and I guess that's why it's going to take 2 years to complete the repairs. I can post the pictures or send them to this rental company. My review is 100% factual. It's funny they didn't deny the mold issue which had everyone in our unit coughing the entire time. Back in Atlanta no cough or breathing issues. Maybe the PCB health department should come analyze the mold problem. Im a general contractor and know well about mold inside the walls. In a place as hot and humid as Panama City there are legions of mold growing inside the walls of this unit. I have been here 6 times so I chose this place many times it's not the same. Maybe in 2 years when they complete the project it will be nice again I don't know but the area is lousy and run down. If you look at the review before mine for unit 504w you will see those people felt the same way. It's SCVR not I that is the problem. Must suck having to call people liars on Google every day because your place is dilapidated! Came out one day to stucco all over the hallway. One day the elevator stopped with the cleaners onboard and they didn't think we would get it going again. It was a mess every day somewhere. Definitely don't walk around barefooted. Glass, splinters and stucco around the property. Pool gates are in disrepair. Watched one of these wonderful craftsmen that work there drop a glass light cover and shattered infront of the elevator and saw various glass shards in front of the elevator. They want to call me a liar I can go on and on. The black mold is definitely a health issue that's the biggie! They offered the same tickets the offered on email as working with guests to resolve a problem that's a joke right? How about offering a mold remediation company a sheetrock crew a new refrigerator or just some beach chairs instead of the free ticket vouchers you recieve from local business for free. You did nothing but deny the situation and poo poo my complaints! I didn't threaten nor was I irate. I'm a real man and handled the situation with my 2 girls. Now I'm irate and you did your best to get me here! The rusty chairs on the porch and the broken deadbolt...

Ok.. first off I hated to give this a 2 star.. even considered a 1 start.. here is why.. we paid good money to stay here basically 1 week. Well the place has changed Owners and the first call was a very confusing call that was heavy on the "we're gonna honor the old owners price" .. okay.. great, but we didn't call for that.. we called to speak to the old owner as we had yet to discover the place had been sold and were only callingto confirm. We knew the old owner was thinking about selling as we are returning customers and had a nice relationship with the old owner.. anyways. We weren't calling to negotiate price when we got ahold of the new owners, but rather confirm our booking that we had made with the old owner John... all was good.. again.. acted like they were gonna honor a deal that was already in place.. then here is the kicker. We get to our room .. by the way.. check in was smooth sailing... but we get to our room and my goodness. What a mess.. sure it looked clean.. it smelled clean, but this unit was so dirty and so not worth the 1500+ dollars we spent on our room.. The pictures I have will show the mold, chipped paint, holes in ceilings.. yes ceilings.. chipped paint, cracked tiles everywhere, patio furniture looked like it was found in the trash, refrigerator door about to fall off, washer was a special monster, the master bedroom shower curtain rod was literally pushing through the wall.. etc. etc. this was terrible.. the shower/bath had next to zero water pressure the blinds in the master bedroom were broken to the point that they would not open etc. etc.... keep in mind, this is part of their sales pitch and that there is beautiful views offered throughout the bedrooms. May seem petty, but very disappointing to say the least. Just look at the pictures and with so much competition up and down Front Beach Road 🤔.. We were saddened by our stay at a place we loved to return to year after year. We paid our bill.. we didn't dispute the charges, but we sure wish the room would have met the same standards as our...

We are staying in E803, which we rented through VRBO and the unit was immaculate when we arrived. There's a binder with instructions for everything. Washer and dryer, stainless kitchen appliances, refrigerator with water/ice maker, dish washer, blender, toaster, keurig coffee maker, a regular coffee pot, a Starbucks espresso coffee maker, pots/pans, skillets, utensils, some plastic storage containers for leftovers, WiFi, cable tv in living room and bedrooms, open concept living area, stereo, DVD players in the bedrooms and a large Bluetooth speaker. The master bath has a walk-in closet, lots of storage, two sinks with one in the separate shower and toilet area. The master bath shower has 2 shower heads, a rainfall shower head in the ceiling and 4 body rinse heads on the right side. Bedroom #2 has 2 beds, celing fan, cable tv, DVD player, walk-in closet and a full bath. Master bedroom has a queen size 4 post bed, a love seat that pulls out a small bed with an ottoman, nice size dresser and a desk for your laptop. Perfect views of the gulf from every room, with glass that runs top to bottom the full length of the condo. The entire condo is tiled, nice trim and crown moulding throughout. We are here in June, so we only used the AC and it worked great. If your going to have the doors open to the balcony, you should have the AC turned off. Included 2 beach chairs with umbrella service is as easy as calling the number on the sign down by the chairs and there's plenty of room down there to bring your own chairs, umbrellas or sun shade canopy. The pool isn't so big, but when you have the gulf to swim in, who needs a pool. There's a small hose and shower at the bottom of the steps to the beach as well as up top by the pool. All in all, at 1400 sq ft, it's a great unit, clean, spacious and accommodating. We are very happy with the unit we chose and we would like to come back and stay in...
