This condo was very clean and our stay was great! We traveled for my other half's birthday and he had a wonderful time. It was freezing cold outside but the condo was very well insulated. The view of the ocean was great! We got to wake up and see the ocean even if it was too cold to be out on the patio for long. It was close to the boardwalk and plenty of restaurants. I would definitely recommend staying here!

We’re also glad the location worked well for you, with easy access to the boardwalk and nearby restaurants. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would love to welcome you back again for another stay!
