Excellent rental! Only complaint was that we could not find a broom or a blender but everything else was fantastic! We will definitely consider renting this unit again next year for the annual trip

Fantastic beach stay!
This place had everything we needed for our stay! The beach being so close allowed us to come and go, which was awesome. The house was like a home away from home. We felt safe and comfortable for the whole trip. It would have been nice to have some beach supplies as some rentals offer, and it was a bummer that the beach showers were off during our whole stay. I highly recommend this place, and we’d definitely come back.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We're so glad to hear the home had everything you needed and that the close beach access made your trip extra convenient. It’s wonderful to know you felt safe and comfortable—just like a home away from home! We appreciate your feedback about beach supplies and the beach showers. While the shower issue was unfortunately out of our control, we’ll definitely take your suggestion into consideration for future improvements. Thank you again for the recommendation—we’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Seaside Retreat
Very comfortable for our family. Living room seating for 8 and still has plenty of space to separate when someone needs some alone time. 4 comfy chairs on the patio. Fast response when we had some water leaking under the kitchen sink. Very close to the boardwalk to the beach. Great proximity to everything in town also. Definitely would recommend and we can't wait to go back again!

Very enjoyable place for a family
Our condo was very nice, plenty of space and decorated nicely. It is very close to the beach. You can’t see the beach because of the dunes but it sounds great on the back porch. It is a short stroll to the boardwalk and down to the beach. Our kids loved the pool and we wish we had brought our tennis rackets. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed several meals. There isn’t a table per say, but the bar is nice and there is plenty of space for all to eat comfortably. We do recommend.

Just as pictured
We had a great stay in this unit. Very tastefully decorated and clean. The only items that would have improved our stay would have been a washer and dryer and access to a gas grill. The complex does have charcoal grills and they were located near our unit so that wasn't a big problem. A gas grill would have been more convenient. Coin operated washers and dryers were available and nearby but one washer was out of order and all of it was expensive.
We'd stay here again. Felt very safe and the boardwalk was a pleasant and easy stroll to the beach.

Perfect space
We were there with the kids for a week at the beach. This place was just the right size and gave everyone their own space. The facilities were well kept and clean. The only downside would be having to use the washing machines on site. They were 2.25 per load and only took quarters. Bring a roll of quarters when you come, most gas stations won't give you any due to the coin shortage. I would stay here again.

Nice Rental
Unit must have been updated recently. Nice appliances and adequate utensils. Beds were.comfortable. Living room was spacious. Parking was easy and convenient. Very quite at least on our stay.
1. First floor provides easy access,especially if you are bringing food. Only downside is you do not have a view of water dune that blocks visibility.
2. Kitchen has adequate utensils.
3. Make sure you bring the seasonings and oil you will need or you will have to buy. None are provided.
4. This unit is about a 5 minute easy walk to beach. We took a small cart and a few coolers and it was real drive on beach.
5. Unit is town. You could walk but we drove. A bit far .
