I figured I would get these reviews updated to 2024 since the other reviews are very old. I own a property (8 surf crest village) that Sunshine Realty manages for me. I have had my place since 2019 and have always used Sunshine. As a property owner I am very happy with their services. Any time there is an issue with my place (from broken tv, missing lightbulbs or feedback about cleanliness) they are always VERY responsive. They know I have choices in who I use to manage my place and take care of any issues immediately. I especially find David Marks to be quick, honest and responsive. When you rent from Sunshine you rent from me and any issues aren't tolerated. read more

Stayed in a rental unit called Bird of Paradise from June 26 to July 3, 2010. It was OK. Problems were dishwasher did not work and EVERY dish in the place was dirty (mostly with grit and dust). All the towels were in the washroom downstairs - clean - half still in the dryer. Took THREE days to get the dishwsher fixed (Sat pm, Sunday, to Monday pm at 5:30 pm) Teflon fry pans BADLY scratched. Three lamps had no bulbs, one table lamp showered me with sparks when I screwed a light bulb in it! Smoke detector missing from one bedroom. VERY poor arrangement in living room for people to gather and talk. Location is next to public walkway but OK. Parking area where laundry area is is dirty, Garages are dins of dirt. GOOD sounds of the beach and breeze. Deck is in shade of house in evenings- great! One really good master bedroom. Several screens missing. read more

My family had a graduation/reunion celebration and some of our family members stayed in Bermuda Run Unit 7 rented by Sunshine Realty in St. Augustine and it was DEPLORABLE!!! And that is being kind. Immediately upon the rental office opening on a Monday, my sister personally visited Sunshine Realty and they didn't even have the courtesy of visiting the unit after being told about NUMEROUS issues with the condo. My sister actually strongly suggested that they come see it for themselves but it was obvious they didn't need to because they knew it was in such bad condition. the best they could do was give $500 in refund for a $2,400/weekly rental. The unit rented for a few hundred dollars more than the unit I stayed in and my unit was terrific. However, I rented my unit from Resorts Rentals and Paul was fantastic to deal with. Both my sister and I asked the same questions about our unit conditions and received the same answers; however, sunshine's unit was not what was described. It contained furniture that looked like it came from a landfill, hair and dirt in every drawer, no hangers, broken cabinets, an outlet sparked in one of the bedrooms and the remaining outlets didn't work, filthy patio, cockroach in the food cabinet, mold all over the tile in the bathroom etc etc. It made such an uncomfortable stay but nothing else was available. I would NEVER rent from Sunshine again - do yourself a favor and use Paul at Resort Rentals! read more

Property was the all American beach house..DO NOT RENT!!!!! Has rats! Both alive and dead sitting in traps...Walls are molded and rotting or were once infested with termites. Nothing was sanitary stairs were outside to get to lower level of house and not covered so you get soaked when raining.the floors were so uneven everywhere it made you dizzy walking on them.the master bedroom extierior door didnt lock and all the windows/doors were so fogged and grimy you couldnt see through them.the pool wasn't green surprisingly but is the size of a hot tub the picture is very misleading....all of them were!!!!! read more

We had a horrible experience with Sunshine Realty. Our unit was very run down and had not been maintained. Our "outside shower" advertised consisted of a water house without a handle (however, they did have a pair of plyers there for us to use). There was no internet, telphone or DVD as advertised either. (We complained and they delivered the DVD player, buyt no internet) Prior guests left moldy sour baby bottle in the couch and a dirty diaper under the bed. There were leaks in the windows and bathrooms with stains on the ceiling from upstairs leaks. The "fabulous view" was far from fabulous. I had a balcony with rotton wood over looking a backyard of weeds. You could see the ocean back there somewhere.... Far from what was described!' The 24 hr emergency number...useless..they never called back. My unit was unsafe, the upstairs AC didn't work, it was hot and I would highly encourage anyone looking to rent from Sunshine Realty to reconsider. There are many other realty companies in the area and VRBO listings. Do your homework and look at the property. It's no wonder sunshine wants you to prepay 100% two weeks before you arrive!! We complained and they apologized and gave us a $200 credit, which was enough to cover the night we checked out early! If you are looking for a rental, look elsewhere. I would never do any kind of business with them. Also consider checking out the google reviews and you will see consistently poor ratings! read more
