Tyler was attentive. The first walked for unit assessment went great as planned and Tyler would give me an overall assessment. Next step was Richard (head of maintenance team) who made another visit for details assessment and proceed with recommended things to do for the unit prior to marketing it. Richard also kept me in the loop as how the process went. The whole team from Tyler, to Richard, to Allison work hand in hand that made me feel I have been in good hands all along . Even before the unit is ready to hit the market, Tyler once again reached out to me for any final last thought before he made it public. I am really impressive with this team. Not only each individual who shows the professional courtesy and the urgency of the matter but also the whole team as it works hand in hand between one person (Tyler) to the next (Richard) and then back to Tyler (Marketing) etc. I highly recommended this team

He went completely ghost and did not put in the contract with the sellers that they could take the pots in my front porch. They were there the day before for the walk-through. Cameron mentioned the sellers would be taking some plants,(he should have put that in the contract if the sellers wanted to keep) come to my surprise the day I get the keys. The two front plants are completely gone! Completely unacceptable also during the inspection as well many things were missed, and Cameron and his team recommended this person.. This is from my personal experience

Review - 120 31st Street…read more ONCE IN A LIFETIME- Absolutely perfect beach getaway! We had an incredible stay at this beautiful beach house! Here's how I can break it down: LOCATION: 10/10 The location was absolutely perfect--just steps from the beach(halfway between tacos & sand... ) **Literally ran in foot to Pavilions & back in 8 minutes flat round trip** CLEANLINESS: 10/10 Spotless, immaculate, towels were perfection, tidy (not cluttered!) COMFORT: Bedrooms & beds were cozy, comfy & CLIMATE controlled(A/C!) PRO Insider tips: * Don't stand too still in the shower, you'll end up wet in the dark, like I did with the Motion sensor automatic lights... * Brought beach towels for everyone; bring twice as many as you think you'll need. The entire experience exceeded our expectations, from the gorgeous location to the wonderful accommodations and excellent communication. I don't ever want to leave! We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this beach house to anyone looking for the perfect coastal vacation. Ten/10 stars all around!

You can walk straight out and be on the beach in seconds, which made the entire experience feel relaxing and effortless. The house itself was just as impressive. Having three garage parking spots was a huge bonus, especially for traveling and storing bikes. It made everything so convenient and stress-free. The location couldn't have been better--just far enough from the main pier to enjoy quieter, less crowded beaches, but still close enough to easily bike or walk over when you want to be in the middle of everything. There's even a volleyball net right outside the house, which was such a fun added touch. Overall, this place checked every box for us. Peaceful, perfectly located, and incredibly convenient. We will definitely be returning!

Disappointing experience due to a lack of professionalism, communication, and transparency…read more Our primary contacts throughout the leasing process were Daniel Morgan and Raquel. After we initially declined the lease because the rent was outside our budget, the homeowner personally reached out and invited me back to the property to meet his family and neighbors, answer questions about the home and neighborhood, and discuss the rental terms. Following that meeting, we reached an agreement on a revised rental price, and Daniel and Raquel sent us an updated lease reflecting those terms. We took the time to carefully review the lease and ask questions before signing, as anyone should when entering into a legal agreement. During that process, we felt pressured to sign the lease quickly, despite simply trying to understand the terms of the agreement. We ultimately signed the updated lease and promptly submitted the requested security deposit in good faith. Based on our understanding that we were moving forward with this property, we declined other rental opportunities, which were no longer available when we unexpectedly had to resume our search. What followed was, in our view, the most concerning part of the entire experience. After signing the lease and submitting our security deposit, we received no communication whatsoever from the leasing company regarding next steps, confirmation that our documents had been received, or when we could expect a countersigned lease. We found this unusual and reached out ourselves the following day. Only because we initiated that conversation were we informed that the property had continued to be shown after we had already signed the lease and submitted our deposit. During that conversation, we were told that another applicant had offered the original asking rent and that the owner had decided to move forward with that applicant instead--just 10 days before our scheduled move-in date. While our security deposit was ultimately returned, the handling of this transaction fell well below the level of professionalism, communication, and transparency we expected. We invested significant time and effort into this process, including meeting with the homeowner and his family, negotiating revised lease terms, carefully reviewing the lease, signing the agreement, submitting a substantial security deposit, and making housing decisions in reliance on the understanding that we were moving forward. Our real estate agent, who has more than 20 years of industry experience, told us she had never encountered a situation like this. Regardless of the legal status of the lease before it was fully executed, prospective tenants deserve timely, transparent communication--especially after signing a lease and submitting a security deposit. In our case, we received no proactive communication and only learned that the property was no longer available because we contacted the leasing company ourselves. Based on our experience, we cannot recommend this company. We encourage prospective tenants to obtain written confirmation regarding when a property will be removed from the market and when their tenancy is considered secure before signing documents, submitting funds, or declining other housing opportunities.

I don't think I could come up with something negative if you held a gun to my head! The roof deck was the crown jewel, but there were 3 different outdoor areas to relax, lounge, etc each with a view, or privacy, and in some cases both. The inside was exactly as pictured and described. Spacious, well-appointed, and complete. Bathrooms, bedrooms, and kitchen were all spotlessly clean and free of sand--which is saying something because we were 1 block from the beach! The view, the proximity to the beach, the walkability to restaurants and shops, I can't imagine ever even looking for something better! We were able to accommodate 3 1/2 couples! Finally, the host was on call and responded immediately on even the most minor of questions. Plus, they proactively reached out a couple times to make sure all was well!

Unfortunately, our experience with Beachview Rentals was extremely disappointing. We booked this…read morehome expecting a relaxing vacation, but instead dealt with multiple issues that significantly affected our stay. The biggest issue was the construction happening directly next to the property. We were woken up at approximately 7:00 a.m. every day by loud construction, including jackhammers and large equipment. This was incredibly disruptive and absolutely should have been disclosed before our stay. Had we known the extent of the construction, we would not have chosen this property. The house was also extremely hot with poor ventilation and inadequate A/C. The bedroom windows did not have appropriate coverings that allowed us to comfortably leave them open, and there were no additional fans available in the house. The property was also poorly stocked for a reservation of eight people. We arrived to find only three rolls of toilet paper and two laundry pods for eight guests. The kitchen was minimally stocked as well. Even something as basic as pepper was missing, requiring us to leave in the middle of preparing dinner to purchase basic supplies. The outdoor grill was dirty and several of the burners/flames did not ignite properly. It clearly needed cleaning and maintenance. The port where the barbecue was was swarming with flies. This also could've been caused by the big dumpster around the corner from us due to the construction. The linens and towels were also very cheap and uncomfortable, which was disappointing considering the cost of the rental. What makes this experience even more frustrating is that I had previously contacted the company about rescheduling our stay. Had the construction situation been disclosed at that time, much of this could have been avoided. Vacations are expensive, and guests deserve to know about significant construction and other conditions that may affect their stay before they arrive. We came here specifically to relax and instead were woken up every morning and spent the week dealing with issues that should not occur at a professionally managed vacation rental. Given the circumstances, I believe a partial refund would be appropriate and was denied. I would strongly encourage anyone considering a Beachview Rentals property to ask specifically about nearby construction, A/C and ventilation, and what supplies are actually provided before booking.

Updating my review to after my move-out process has been completed. DO NOT RENT FROM THIS MGMT…read moreCOMPANY!!!!!! They provide extremely poor service towards the end of my lease and during/after the move-out process. Towards the end of my lease, they did not complete several repairs. I ended up having to leave multiple broken items in the unit, even though I submitted repair requests MONTHS before my move-out date. They mishandled my security deposit refund and kept OVER $2,000!!!! I emailed for months after moving out to dispute the refund amount and they kept pushing me off. They continued to say they would follow-up with me shortly. However, I ended up sending about 5-10 email follow ups only to keep hearing that they would 'handle it shortly'. It never got resolved which shows how full of sh** they are, how they provide empty promises and how little they care about people after they are no longer benefitting from them. G.P.M. and the unit owner wrongfully charged me for several repairs without proper back-up documentation. In the middle of my 12 month lease, I submitted all of the proper paperwork to add an assistance animal to my lease. I continued to ask when my lease would be updated to include the animals, they never EVER got around to doing it during the remaining 6 months of my lease. Doing this is a FAILURE to provide reasonable accommodation to people with disabilities under the Federal Fair Housing Act. (I've reported them and an investigation is underway)
