Great Location & very spacious!

The condo is in a great location and it is gorgeous inside! The host was very responsive. All the instructions were clear. Check-out process was simple with minimal clean up required from us. The listing is 100% accurate. Make sure to bring your beach towels, toys, and all toiletries, including hand soap.We would totally stay here again!

Fun weekend getaway

The location was awesome, walking distance to lots of restaurants and the Boardwalk (though it was a little noisy at night, most things settled by around midnight). Easy access to the beach. Each bedroom has an en suite bathroom, which was great. The beds were made for one pillow per person (not a deal breaker, but if you need more than that to be comfortable, bring your own). Well supplied kitchen and working W/D. Each floor has a balcony that faces the ocean (with a top walkup with the best view). The unit was pretty clean, though the carpets on the 2nd & 3rd floor had stains and the top floor needed another pass through with a vaccum. There are a lot of stairs, so would not suggest this for anyone with mobility issues. We had a great time and would stay here again.

Clean, "just right" townhouse 1blk from the beach

Great location. Walking distance to stores, restaurants, boardwalk, beach, amusement park. You can hear music every night but it ends at a reasonable time and we did not find that it interfered with sleeping. Townhouse was clean and comfortable. Slight view of beach. Note there are many stairs in this unit in case that is an issue. Property manager was very responsive when we had questions.

Cute place

Rental management company easy to do business with good customer experience! Good location for teens and tweens as easily accessible and walk to stores, eateries. Very busy location on beach, if quiet and space on beach is a must on holiday weekend look elsewhere.

Great vacation

The condo is very nice, clean and well maintained. It's in a perfect location. The rental agent was great to work with. The one thing to mention is it's a lot of stairs between each floor in the condo.

Things you should know

The house is beautiful. We had 6 adults and 2 teenagers in the property. There are a lot of stairs so be ready. The house is well furnished and has everything you need. On the downside. There is only 2 parking places for the building and you have to pay 8.00 a day for for each additional car. We had a problem with a out side rug fraying when we ran a sweeper on it, so it looks like we have lost our deposit on the house. I would advise you to photo the place when you leave. I have booked a lot of vacations and never had a problem with the cleaning of the place till this time. I was told the place was left dirty, not sure what they are talking about since it has been over 2 weeks and I cant get an answer on it. So make sure you photo when you leave since it is hard to fight now especially since I am 10 hours away.
