You won't forget time spent on the balconies watching the sun rise over the ocean and set over the bay, surrounded by modern day conveniences! Our home features central A/C (although you may not want to use because we face both ocean AND bay, and the cross breezes - AND THE VIEWS! - are wonderfully fabulous!), fully equipped kitchen including dishwasher, electric stove, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, blender, coffee pot, lots of plates and glasses (we like to cook!), washer/dryer (in the unit!) and free internet access and cable.

Drapes are virtually black out so light and heat are controlled, if you desire!
Property is non-smoking. No pets please.
Floor plans in the Century are VERY UNIQUE! Nothing else like it in OC or the surrounding environs. Think of a 2-story townhouse within a tall apartment building. There are stairs in the unit.
We are up on the 16th and 17th floor. end unit END UNIT on northern end of building. Exit the elevator in the center of the building, turn north, and we are on the left. Enter the home, staircase to the right, downstairs bedroom with private bath (over sized vanity, tub/shower combo, toilet and wall to wall mirror), queen size bed, full size futon, small size smart TV and storage are straight ahead. Open shelves (making items easily accessible) and closet are built-in. One complete wall is all glass (floor to ceiling, wall to wall) and overlooks the bay, simply stunning and sweeping views! Hopefully no one in your party has issues with acrophobia....There is a small deck off the bedroom with limited seating should you want to pause and take in the views and coastal breezes overlooking the bay....
Go upstairs and you will see a similarly positioned bedroom, also featuring a queen size bed and a comparable window wall of glass with the same spectacular views of the bay. The private bath includes a large walk-in shower, another over sized vanity, toilet and even larger mirrors! Bedroom also features a nice wicker chair, end table, large dresser and mirror. Dresser hosts another smart flat screen TV and plenty of lighting.
Exit the bedroom and walk towards the ocean, pass the open u-shaped staircase and you will pass the washer/dryer on your right and the utility closet with the water heater, cleaning equipment, an apron and miscellaneous supplies.
Linens (sheets and towels) can be rented for an additional fee. We have blankets and bed pillows at the premises.
Continue towards the ocean, enter the open and spacious kitchen with table, chairs and stools, and all appliances. Granite counters, self closing drawers and cabinets, open shelving and lots of light - natural and otherwise.
The kitchen opens to the living area (with futon/sectional, ample seating, large smart wall mounted TV, home stereo, beach reading, secretarial desk, DVDs, beach reading books, cook books, tour books and so much more) and leads you to the balcony that overlooks the ocean and includes a wicker settee, two matching arm chairs, two more chairs and small table. Can you say...COCKTAILS??!!!
Building lobby was refurbished in 2015 and is very beachy and welcoming with PLENTY of cozy seating. A wonderful meeting place or a nice opportunity to sit and pause after a day at the beach. It also provides access to the LARGE deck in the dunes with tables and seating for many.
Don't forget we have exercise facilities on site and sauna - both overlooking the dunes and beach. Additionally, beyond the large deck, are outdoor showers and a private path that takes you directly to the beach.
And the indoor pool, when hoping to escape the sun or occupy children during a rainy day, is open from mid May to mid September. Big, lots of seating and right there!
Also on site is the state of the art exercise facilities, sauna and huge beach side deck which, again, also includes lots of seating and tables. On the way to the beach you will see the outdoor showers which are quite useful in removing sand from body and feet before heading upstairs.
Very walkable to restaurants, shopping, places of worship, additional parking and food markets.
Feel free to email us and request that we send you additional pictures and happy to make recommendations for whatever interests you - restaurants, miniature golf, candy coated popcorn, movies, natural parks, parasailing, information about the frequent shuttles to the boardwalk, you name it!

I just don’t believe this is exactly what I thought it was going to be based in the pictures. Be prepared to walk into the lower bedroom, first and climb a bunch of stairs to the second floor.I don’t think this is a place that I would return to based on the layout and some of the preamble before the actual check-in.I think that this host needs to be more open about all costs ahead of time prior to booking so that way we know in the actual ad that there are things required that we did not expect.Other than that the host was responsive to the needs of the stay.

We couldn’t ask for anything more than what this place had to offer. Clean condo, great location, close to everything we needed. We even enjoyed the boards and beach chairs that we found in the closet. A really sweet security guard immediately welcomed us when we came and gave us advice on where to go. There was also an outside restaurant/bar in the condo next to us, which we tried one night and it was fun and lively with live music. It seems on par with other places in the area, where you do have to provide your own sheets, towels, and paper products. It was also required that we purchase property damage protection, which was a separate fee. All in all, we would recommend the condo and really enjoyed being so close to the beach!

Great views and location — quiet building
Our family just finished our beach vacation and really enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean and comfortable and the views from the balconies were amazing! The living area felt a bit narrow but it was fine for our stay and the balcony made up for it. Our host was very friendly and responsive. With a family of 5, we might look at larger units next time so we wouldn’t need anyone to sleep on the living room sofa-bed, but again, the view made up for it.

Wendy was a great host and very responsive. The unit was in a great location and had an interesting layout. We loved the east walk to the beach and proximity to the best restaurants in OCMD. We had some minor issues and the condo is a bit worn, but overall, I think the value was there for the price. Thanks Wendy!

Great Vacation
This condo was very different for our family, our first time in a high rise. We loved it!!! The views, awesome sunrise and majestic sunsets, you experience both from this condo which is also clean updated and comfortable. Loved that the beach was such easy access and our family loved the beautiful pool which was never crowded. We even ordered our dinner on evening and ate on the large outdoor deck with ocean view.
Checking in was easy and fast. The building has a freight elevator just for check in and they supply plenty of carts to transport your belongings No problems here. I understand this is one of the older buildings in OC and reading some of the reviews I was a little apprehensive, but I thought it was just lovely and I’m a very fussy person. Clean, updated and super fast elevators. Never a wait.
Don’t know how the other condos are but we were well pleased with Wendy’s. And speaking of Wendy, she was amazing. Several times that I had to reach out to her on little issues she contacted me immediately.
Would definitely rent again. Thanks for everything Wendy. We had a great vacation and hated to leave.

Last minute vacation
We decided to go last minute a week before.. I was looking for 3 days for something and everything was gone. I wanted beach front and the only rentals available were so over priced. I came across this one, I believe someone must have just cancelled as I had not seen it in all the time I was looking but I snagged it! All I can say is it was perfect! The view was so beautiful right in the beach, not a far drive from anything. We drove to some places and took the bus other places. The condo was so beautiful! The sliding door was jammed when we got there it only opened halfway but as soon as I told Wendy she has someone there to fix it! The view from the 17th floor balcony.. breathtaking! Walk right out of lobby onto walkway to beach, also has a beautiful indoor pool. I have nothing negative to say.. I did not hear any noise from above or below our unit! Perfect for me my fiancé and my 2 teenage sons.. layout was so different there is a bedroom and bathroom on first floor and the 2nd floor was 2nd bedroom and everything else so my and my fiancé went to sleep and my boys were able to hang out and we didn’t hear a thing! Definitely will try to get this for next year! Loved it!

Unique Property for Wonderful Stay
I've been vacationing in Ocean City since I was a child, and I have stayed at many properties in the last several decades. This unit is quite different in layout than the typical 2 bedroom rental, but is among my favorites stays on OCMD. The location is great, the views beautiful, the unit comfortable and well maintained. It is obvious the owners take pride in their property. The only criticism I would have, and this is very subjective, is that the mattresses were a bit firmer than my preference. But that's an individual thing. My husband was perfectly comfortable. Highly recommend this unit.
