My review is on A17 through Vacation Rental Pros. 
The owner is not interested in maintaining this unit.
1 – The bathtub doesn’t work and shower head rusted
2 – The washing machine fills up with water when not in use
3 -  Microwave is rusted
4 – Patio table and legs are rusted
5 – The front screen door window is seized closed
6 – Reduced TV channels, only basic SD channels
7 – Furniture consist of used miss match pieces
8 – Only two cheap plastic patio chairs provided
9 – The décor is old and dated, clearly needs redecorating
10 – There is a hole in the wall around the fuse panel in the bedroom hallway
11 – Two windows missing screens
12 – A/C only working at half capacity
13 – Phone old and poor sound, full of static
14 – Carpet is torn at the corners
15 – The couch shags in the middle and appears to have a piece of wood hanging in one corner
Over priced, will not be staying here again

A17 - Old and outdated

Costal reality claims no responsibility on rentals.my unit was filthy: debris hanging off ceiling fans, blood on towels and stains on sheets. Lazy boy smelled like feces when sat on. Mold on walls of both showers. When I called the office at the condos they were rude and acted like they could care less. I sent to emails to Costal Reality with no response. When I returned home I called Costal Reality and was told Stephanie would call me back . No callback. I will take my business to a different rental reality moving forward.

Condo at Ocean Village Club

Stayed in building F, unit was very clean and well stocked. Super easy check-in and out. Beach chairs, towels and toys in the closet a plus. Easy access to an uncrowded beach. Will stay again but will try for building Q. Thanks Coastal Realty for handling a slight hiccup and made things even better.

Great Location and Very Comfortable

Thieves!!!   Disgusting.  Should be arrested!!! Charged us in full and cancelled our reservation without letting us know.  No vacation, no contact.  No nothing.  Do not book with these companies.  They should be put OUT OF BUSINESS!!!

Resort Rental Pros and Home to Go

Just spent at week at Ocean Village Club R36. The rental company made the check in process very easy. A lock box on the door and keys inside. This unit very clean, updated and was pet friendly. It had an elevator to the 3rd floor  which made it very convenient. The apartment was big enough for 3 adults and a small dog to have space. It is located very close to beach, just a short walk down a private boardwalk. The beach was perfect for morning and evening walks with the dog! My only complaint was with registering the dog, the person at the front desk was not very friendly. We were wearing face masks which are not mandated and she acted like she couldn’t understand us.

Great time at St Augustine Beach

We are staying in A35 for the month.  Ten months prior we had reserved a different unit but it was reassigned twice by the management.  We were told by management that our unit would be available at 9 a.m. on December 1st.  We arrived at 9:20 but there was no key as promised. We left a message but never got a return call. We were finally able to get in later in the afternoon.  I understand check in is after 4, but, again we were told “anytime after 9 a.m.” Other things that were discouraging are:  cracked plug on bedside clock radio, bathroom sink drains very slow, candy, ink pen, broken toy and tons of dust behind sofa, balcony light out, bathtub had soap scum buildup (I scrubbed before using it), smelly mildewed towel left in washer, toaster won’t stay down (sparks when trying to use).  There was one day where we had no water and was told it would take 15 minutes to fix.....  9 hours later:(.  I suppose I could call the office but it seems they are too busy to return calls. The cleaning service this company uses is questionable!

Christmas getaway 

Here is a list of events that have occurred in the last 3 days during my stay: 

August 3-
Condo has a nice pool view, but had an odor, no trash bags, and the kitchen as well as both bathrooms were not clean. I found cleaning supplies, and cleaned the condo myself. 

August 4- 
Went to the beach. Had a great time. Got back to my car, and I had a notice that I didn’t have my yellow parking ticket in my car. It was in fact, in my car and visible. Go down to the pool where music was playing. Loved it. Jumped in the pool and sat my drank off to the side. I was told by staff that I was not able to have my beverage in that particular spot, but I could call her and she could come over and get it for me, for me to drink (which I thought was super nice!) So, I didn’t say anything else and thanked her for being so kind. 

August 5- 
Go down to the pool again, clear about the rules after speaking to the staff the day prior. I had a guest with me. The staff comes to us (different woman) and states that we cannot have music (the day before it played all day,) and we could not have our handed drinks to us if we are in the pool. I mentioned to her what the staff told me the day before, and this particular staff personnel said “That’s fine.” Again, misinformed from the previous day. 

About ten minutes later the site manager came to the pool. She was very aggressive and assertive when coming over. Told us we could not have our music on or someone hand us our drinks at all. I proceeded to ask her for some clarification on things since I was apparently misinformed. She asked me why I wanted to argue. I told her I did not want to argue, rather talk about the rules so I would know, to be able to enjoy the rest of my stay. 

The site manager then proceeded to tell me the music rule is mainly due to “diversity in music.” So, I asked about the pool aerobics in the pool which I have watched every morning since my stay here. They had music, and I absolutely enjoyed the group of women empowering each other while listening to upbeat music. 

The manager told me that they make exceptions for the owners, not the renters, and I should just call to receive a refund.

Folks, I could care less about the music. It is the simple fact that I was misinformed, and myself as well as my guests were spoken to in a very unfriendly manner. I was embarrassed, and I have NEVER had someone speak to me in that tone while on vacation. 

Ps- NO ONE ELSE WAS IN THE POOL EXCEPT FOR MY PARTY during this time.

Positive points: near the sea with two swimming pools (including one heated all year and two tennis courts Negative points: prices too high when the units are not renovated (you pay the 2019 price for a 1986 condo) The unit we rented for two months had old mattresses, old sofas, old appliances, few kitchen utensils, no sunlight on the balcony and no sea view despite what was said in the ad.

Avoid this project because a lot of work is in progress

This condo is in an excellent location within the OVC and situated in a secure gated community directly off A1A. We recently stayed 4 nights and couldn't say enough good things about the staff and cleaniness of the unit. The owners just recently updated the kitchen with a stainless steel fridge and upgraded the living area with a new comfortable  sleeper sofa. R26 is located in on the second floor nearby the elevator in the newest building with a lovely ocean view. We felt home immediately when we entered the front door and are in the process of booking our next visit since this unit is in high demand due value pricing by the owner. A pleasant owner called us the second day we were there and asked about how our stay was going, the check in process and the condition of the unit. We will defiantly recommend this jewel to our friends and family.

Superb Clean Condo at an excellent price

We love the location of this property. It's further down the beach and a lot quieter than other areas, yet still walking distance to the local grocery stores and several restaurants. 
The unit we rented was adequate but needs some maintenance and updating. 
There was a dehumidifier in the bedroom that ran constantly and required daily emptying. THAT was annoying to deal with. 
The towels were very rough and scratchy and the bed linens well worn and also scratchy. I'll bring my own next time.
We were on the second level and the sliding doors to the balcony did not slide well. The tracks were very corroded. We couldn't even open the bedroom balcony door.
After paying the rate we did for a week here we were not pleased that we had to buy paper towels, toilet paper and soaps. They do provide a small hotel sized bar of soap and there was toilet paper in the BR but you need to bring or buy extra. They also leave you one dishwasher pod. So you need to buy those or buy dish soap and hand wash the dishes.
I didn't dare use the washer and dryer. I turned the dryer on once to dry some damp towels and it made so much noise I was worried it would break and I would be charged for the repair. 
The dining room chairs had visible dirt and grime on the upholstery. The kitchen cabinets and drawers were hard to open and very worn. I noticed that if I went barefooted in the unit my feet got dirty from the carpet. The doorframes and around the door knobs were grimy.
You need to bring your own beach chairs and stuff but you are not allowed to leave them under the stairs. We wound up keeping them in our car. 
It's a condo, there are a lot of rules.
Don't get me wrong, we enjoyed our stay but be aware that it's a crap-shoot. The units are all privately owned so you don't know exactly what you are getting and it's not the fault of Coastal Realty. They just manage the reservations. It's up to the owners to maintain their units and provide a quality accommodation.
