Fantastic Location for An Amazing Beach View

The owner of the condo is great. She is very responsive to my inquiries and got back to me within the hour. Checkin was great. Location- If you want to be on the beach from your balcony, you can't get much closer. I could throw a rock and hit the water from this condo. It's very, very close to the beach. You're no more than a five-minute drive to the boardwalk, waterpark, and restaurants. You're in the middle of everywhere. Condo - It was very quiet. One bedroom. There are some things I addressed with the owner directly, they're looking to resolve in the near future. If they take care of those items, this would easily be a 5-star location condo. I'm confident these issues will be addressed.You're in a gated area. The Sand Fea restaurant is a 2-minute walk from the condo.

Although the condo is dated, everything worked and the furniture was comfortable. The view from the balcony makes you feel like you are on the beach but you don't need to haul all your things down there to enjoy it. We absolutely loved it and hope to rent this unit again in a couple years.

Property Owner Ghosted Us

I booked this property in February for our October stay. We live in Indiana, when we were 150 miles away I realized I did not have the access information for the condo and it was after the time we could check in. I sent a message to the property owner and heard nothing. I had to reach out to Vrbo and they said they would get us a refund and to try to book somewhere else. Imagine how stressful trying to find a place to stay last minute during fall break. Then add in the fact I had been in the car driving all day with a 5 year old, a 9 month old, and 2 dogs. Then the day AFTER we were to check in they sent us the instruction information. I replied back that we arrived the day prior and once again heard nothing. So don’t book with any of their multiple properties unless you want to take the chance of being stranded.

Amazing!!

10/10-we loved it! The chairs to rent on the beach were $40 a day & it’s first come first serve (blue & green umbrellas) make sure you get out there to get the spot you want. Okay first night we got there, unbelievable-we saw the blue angels fly over, we saw a couple get engaged, dolphins, and a freakin rainbow. It was unbelievable!!! We ate tomato sammies, chilled on the back porch and played games. Second day we brought all of our tents & chairs down to the beach (pro-tip: if you don’t want to rent chairs, leave your heavy stuff in your car, the stairs can be a pain). We had a BLAST - we ate at old steamers bay I think is the name? Ate crab legs that were amaze balls. We passed out at like 8:30 lollz-the next day we rented chairs & the umbrella-totally worth it!! We played & played all day long on the beach. We brought our lunch & named all the birds that wanted a snack (Gigi, Fifi, & Chi Chi) we went & ate at the back porch & bought a bucket mmmm so good. We ubered everywhere too-very easy!!! We just had the best time-it’s really all you need for 2 people. The price is right & the views really are amazing. The only thing that I would update for the trip details & the pictures is that the front door to the condo looks to be like the floor below it & that it looks like you don’t have to walk far to get to the beach. It is 3 flights of stairs plus a little walk around, but you are right there!! We weren’t expecting to be on the top. Thank you for the best time EVER!
