Everything was great! It would’ve been great to have lights outside for evening returns. Also, a wagon to get beach stuff to the beach. Other than those 2 things it was fantastic!

Location, Location, Location-this condo is perfect for the beach (1 block) or pier. Within walking distance (5-6 blocks) for restaurants and ice cream. Such a short drive if necessary with easy paid parking. We loved the view from the balcony. We had coffee their every morning.It has every thing you need. Just don't skip over the no dishwasher part! The only thing I would change is the bed. Its a taco and super hard to get out of once you are in the dip. The couch could be improved on but who spends that much time there when ypu have the beach. Also, not a fan of the sheets buts that is a personal preference!

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re so glad you enjoyed the location, balcony views, and being able to walk to the beach, pier, restaurants, and ice cream. It sounds like the morning coffee on the balcony was a highlight! We also appreciate the candid feedback about the bed, sofa, and linens. We’re sorry those weren’t as comfortable as you would have liked. Interestingly, both the bed and sofa were purchased new in 2026, so we’ll certainly keep your comments in mind as we continue to evaluate the condo and make improvements. We know comfort is very personal, particularly when it comes to mattresses and linens, but your feedback is still helpful to us. Thank you again for staying with us and for the thoughtful review. We’re glad you enjoyed the location and your time at the beach, and we hope to welcome you back again.

We loved our stay! The location was perfect: you don't have to cross any streets to get to the beach allowing for a very short and safe walk. It is a solid 45 stairs to the top floor but we don't mind that, especially for the price and location. The condo was comfortable and clean. It had everything we needed from cook ware to towels and toiletries. The only reason for 4 stars was that the bed was REALLY sagging in the center. It was only my son and I so not a huge deal to us but significant enough to notice. We would still stay again for sure.

Thank you for the thoughtful review — we’re really glad you enjoyed the location, beach access, and found the condo clean and well equipped. We also appreciate you mentioning the bed. The mattress and box spring are less than a year old, so your feedback is especially helpful for us to take a closer look and make sure everything is still in good condition and supporting guests properly. We’re happy to hear you’d stay again, and we’d love to host you in the future.
