This property was PERFECT for our week away RIGHT ON THE BEACH! Good space for 4 adults 1 toddler and 2 dogs. STEPS away from beach access right outside the living room or Queen master bedroom. Pictures are accurate. Plenty of dishes for cooking. Walking distance to Surf City, food and shopping. 10/10

Great beach getaway

If you’re looking for a nice and clean beachfront property in a nice little town this is a great option. The property was just as advertised. The decks offered great views and put you right on the beach. My wife and our dog had a great time!

Great Vacation

The house was exactly as advertised and right on the beach, which is what we wanted. Lance was an excellent host and answered our questions very quickly. Everything else that you could want was not very far away from groceries to restaurants to souvenir stores. Would definitely go back to Sea Escape for another week of vacation.

Great getaway

We had a group of 6 adults and 1 toddler. This house has plenty of room, nice decor and very clean. We all enjoyed being able to walk straight out to the beach, as well as being within a mile or two of almost everything we wanted to go do. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend staying here, to anyone looking for a great vacation. The only downfall is if you have trouble with a lot of steps, you may find it hard to get around throughout the house.

Fall on the Beach

Annual family gathering. Condo was the right size and clean. Lance (owner) was very responsive to an entry issue and another minor issue. Location was about a mile North of main commerce area…not bad. Parking was tricky…hard to navigate under the edifice with a large SUV. We prefer an individual beach home…some ocean views were guarded by building next door, but overall a good place to stay.

Family Vacation in Surf City

This was our first time in Surf City. We had so much fun and loved our location. We loved the small town feel right on the beach. The property owner, Lance, was wonderful. Not knowing how traffic would be we set out early to Surf City. Check In was at 3pm but we arrived about 1:30pm. We were well aware of our checkin time and knew we were early so Lance gave us some recommendations where to get a good lunch before we checked in. We ended up going to all the restaurants he suggested throughout our week stay! The property was wonderful. I picked this rental because i wanted to be right on the beach. Step out the door, off the deck and feel my toes in the sand. This place did the trick! It did have some upgrading done to it lately which were really nice. Not everything has been upgraded but I’m sure it’s a work in progress. It was spacious for a family of 5 + friends. Everything worked well and we couldn’t have asked for a better vacation!

Perfect spot right on the beachfront! House was clean, fit our family of 9 comfortably, and made for a stress-free and relaxing vacation. Host was responsive and provided clear directions, house expectations and information for our stay.Parking was a bit difficult for our SUV and truck, but we had great tenants next door at the time and we worked it out between us.We would come back each year and stay - it was excellent!!

Not What We Had Hoped For

This condo has some wonderful advantages, chief among them its convenient location in Surf City and its close proximity to the ocean—just steps away. The interior of the condo was clean and included a well-equipped kitchen. However, we can’t say this property was comparable to other 5-star rated rentals that we have enjoyed in the past. It adequately accommodated the five of us who stayed there, but it would have been much too cramped to handle 12 guests. As it was, we found it very crowded to have the five of us seated at the kitchen table at the same time. The living room furniture was tired and uncomfortable. Outdoor seating was available with plenty of seating. That feature was something we expected to enjoy. Unfortunately, the pigeons decided to take up residence on the top deck. Their droppings had completely covered a table in the corner; we carefully cleaned it off, but that was only a temporary solution as it was soon covered again. The protected steps leading into the condo were also quite dirty from the pigeon droppings.

Don’t hesitate - it’s perfect - so close to the beach!

This was by far one of the nicest rentals I’ve stayed in. Pictures and description are spot on! (There are actually 2 couches so our group of 9 had plenty of room to sit and 4th bedroom actually had a double and twin so all 3 kids fit in there). This house is literally steps to the beach and so easy to get to everything (if you even want to leave). Other reviews mentioned the parking and it is awkward…but we just backed the van and truck in and had no problem at all Lance is a great host and replied to my questions/concerns quickly. If your hesitant to book this rental-don’t be. Just do it-you won’t be disappointed. Thanks again Lance for renting your home!
