Reviews
Friends getaway
4/5 My friend and I loved our weekend here. The kitchen was well stocked and the condo was clean with extra comfy beds! The taco stand next door was rather loud but we managed to sleep with provided fans and sound machines:) The condo units are definitely old and in need of outdoor updating, but once inside that's forgotten! The property manager was the best - easy to contact, kind, and very accommodating!

From the owner: "Thanks, Ashley! The outsides of the condo buildings have been damaged over this past year by storms and repairs are in the making. New deck railings are up and the outside of all buildings are due to be repaired and painted. Glad you enjoyed your visit!"
beach retreat
4/5 We enjoyed our stay at this location. The retreat was nice and clean and had everything we needed for our stay. After going up and down the stairs a few times we could have used some elevators, hard to carry everything making several trips to the room. But that was the only thing we didn't like.
Manager's Response:
From the owner: "Thanks, Reva! We too would love an elevator. Typically, the only places that have elevators are some of the private homes and large hotels, but almost all condos have steps. We are glad you enjoyed your stay!"
Great location
4/5 Highly recommend. Great locale and beautiful view. Not sure it should be advertised as sleep 6. An air bed should not qualify as a bed...recommend a sleeper sofa instead. Kitchen was small, difficult to accommodate more than 2. Overall the property contact was super sweet, clean Great place and great view. Would stay again.

More than we bargained for!
3/5 After climbing six flights of stairs we were happy to find a clean condo. The dishwasher was not empty. This was a requirement on the long list of things to do left by owner even when you are required to pay cleaning fee. The ocean view from the spacious balcony was the best. I didn't realize we had a street between us and the ocean when booking, but it worked out. We had mice getting into our cars parked under the building. The owner said she never had complaints of this. Didn't make us feel too comfortable leaving anything in the vehicle's! We never used the very small pool. Was great to walk to restaurants and shops.

Hi there, we want all of our guests to rest easy when they stay with us, and we're sorry that you experienced some issues during your trip. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
- I'm so glad you enjoyed the ocean view.
- There are 3 flights of steps to get to the unit; the unit's location at this level is what gives guests the ocean view.
- No one in the complex has ever noticed an issue with mice in the parking area.
- The checkout list for guests is composed of standard requests throughout the vacation rental industry. The cleaning fee includes the linen laundering fee.
- We encourage guests to reach out with any concerns while in residence so we can make things right.
We do all we can to make it the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.Not worth the price-and beware of LOTS of stairs!
3/5 The unit had a great view and easy access to boardwalk and beach. However the building was in disrepair and there are a lot of steep stairs to climb to the fourth floor. The unit itself was clean but old and very outdated. Next time I would stay at the Marriott or Hampton as for me this unit was not worth the cost and fees.

- While the building was built in the '80s, the unit is clean and updated with new paint, an updated kitchen, flat-screen TV's, and modern appliances.
