Oceanfront Clean Comfortable and Stunning ~ Zen of the East End

The view from the patio was amazing! The place presented a calm and peaceful vacation

It was a lovely view and outside sitting area. We loved every minute of that. The downside is needed a thorough clean as we did see a roach in the place while there. While we do realize those things can happen, maybe put more money into a cleaning service. View phenomenal!

I loved watching the ocean from the couch! The room was clean and beautifully decorated and painted. The owners were quick to respond to my messages. I would return, for sure!

Great view and access to beach. Property management was quick to help address any need.

Quick response to any question we had regarding g the property.

Beautiful view

The beachfront view is outstanding and very peaceful setting. Great value.

It was a great experience

Obviously the beach is the main attraction but also where you lay your head matters as well and over all we found the Zen a good place to recharge. There were a few things we felt that could use some attention mainly for safety reasons listed here:1. Night lighting when going between vehicle and the physical entrance should be addressed. Understanding the situation where bright lights are not welcome for the beach, but the timer currently in place needs to be adjusted to at least a few minutes vice seconds. The other lighting issue is lack of one at the entrance to allow you even see to unlock the door. 2. There was no hot water at the kitchen sink (making the dishwasher not useable) which led us to the small leak under the sink. 3. The place needs some TLC as indicated in previous reviews such as the table and chairs, instructions for all the remotes, instructions for the thermostat, greasing the main entrance sliding door. All in all, it was still a good stay even though not our impression of a ZEN.

Explanation of how to open lockbox would be useful; lighting on bottom of stairs (not all the way up) only; unable to secure gate so that cinder blocks had to be used to keep it from banging in the wind at night; there were no window screens, so we couldn't open the windows; there were no closets; the vacuum cleaner did not work and no broom or dust pan was provided; access to beach went through adjoining tenants property.

The apartment was super cute with a fabulous view! The weather was horrible, but we made the most of it and really enjoyed the restaurants in the area. Also found a lot of shark teeth!

This waterfront property was perfect for a quiet, relaxing vacation with our dogs. The fencing area was divided into different sections which allowed private fenced area for our dogs which was amazing.

The view is hard to beat!

Great location beautiful beach fantastic view loved it !

Non contact, assigned parking spot, open floor plan with great ocean view and beach access

It’s a cute little spot with a great view. Clean and comfortable environment. Good full kitchen.

Here’s the carrot: beautiful location with amazing views and far from the craziness around Center St. Two cool decks and private access to the beach. The shower is awesome and the place came with amply supply of trash bags. Here’s the stick: This isn’t on the host, but the property management called the day prior in an attempt to up-sale me on an early arrival or late departure, while negotiating the price the caller then noticed that they can do neither; unprofessional and a waste of time.As for the unit, not as comfortable as advertised. NEEDS A NEW BED! Surface of the bed is like a lying on the edge of a black hole. When you lay down the pit in the middle sucks you in. I can’t believe nobody hasn’t commented about this. The bed totally wrecked my back. The toilet has a hard lean to the right. The 2 outside chairs are uncomfortable and flimsy, also only one chaise lounge on the 1st landing. Why not 2 to watch the sky at night? Lastly, not that it was advertised, there is nothing in the kitchen other than silverware, assorted dishes and pots/pans. No coffee, coffee filters, paper towels, salt & pepper, sweeteners or spices. Wished we had known this before having to make an extra trip to a grocery. To summarize, Zen has amazing views and great beach access but it’s overpriced considering the uncomfortable bed and lack of comfortable outdoor furniture and lack of towels/washcloths.

I take zero pleasure in wrtiting this, but the conditions of this propertyprice is absolutely unacceptable. I Have stayed here before, all previous reviews are correct-def needs upgrades. My opion now, this place needs to be gutted. No effort has been made to buckeled cheap flooring, the moldy cabinets throughout, the leaky outdated sinksweird lean of the gross toilet. But this time, no effort to even Clean! Mold in shower, grim on bathroom floor mold on dishware. Beach access is so skecky (bc you litally have to cross the others renters quarters for access) it was so uncomfortable. Zero instructions on how to use the tv/stream. Shared wifi was so spotty i could never enjoy anything on my laptop. I let a day early after paying an arm n a leg..after i saw roaches, i was out! So disappointed disturbed. Do not rent this property.

Beautiful spot. Just well a bit worn. No fan in the bathroom. Shower water was cold the whole stay after about 15 minutes but is is also shared with another unit so lesson learned that will be a future question for stays. . We talked to maintenance a couple times about how fast the water gets cold and well, it still did it so we just accepted it. You go up 3 flights of stairs to get to the condo which is fine it's a phenominal view but there is no lighting on the stairs . It looks like they have solar lights on them but none of them work. Internet kept going out and saying check network. Again great spot just needs some updating.

We had a wonderful stay at Zen of the Wast End. We enjoyed the decor and the views from the deck were beautiful. Comfortable and inviting, the place had everything we needed. We look forward to returning!

Heat did not work and toilet sometimes would keep running

Came here in February! Perfect for indoor beach watching and listening without getting too cold! Loved the parking spot and access to the beach!Would have like to have more secure internet connection for work purposes. Bed is soft.

Great weekend!

Everything was as advertised great place great location. We are already figuring out when we can return. The only issue we had was arriving late in the dark it was a little difficult to follow directions to get the key in the lock box.

Check in was difficult finding the key was hard and had to contact the manager, lighting is nonexistent going up the stairs and made it dangerous. There are two remotes to work the heating it took to the next day to turn on the heat very cold night.

This property is an apartment that is attached to a main house via a separate entrance. We stayed with our 2 year old and had just enough space. There is one bedroom and one bathroom with a private beach access deck. Private but shared with the attached house. Step off the deck though and you're on the beach! Can't get any closer! The kitchen was stocked well and the property was clean. It does show it's age and will probably need updates soon, but overall is a great property. The owner was responsive when needed. The views are great. I would definitely recommend this property if you're looking for a beach getaway! Especially if you are a solo traveler, couple or (maybe) have a small child.
