Stayed Dec 12, 2025Enjoyable stay. Unit was very clean, nicely decorated and in a convenient location (as promised) close to the beach and downtown. The kitchen had all needed items and large enough to easily allow meal preparation. Host was highly responsive to questions.Only survey question that was hard to respond to since it was not part of our stay was the “winery experience” - gave a “3” rating when a N/A would be more appropriate!

Stayed Nov 26, 2025Condo complex is dated and needs some tlc, but it’s gated, pretty quiet, and close to the boardwalk. Seemed like a safe location. Inside is nicely updated. Kitchen is pretty well equipped with the exception of knives—really bad and difficult to use. We had a few issues, but property management responded quickly and did what they could to mitigate issues. Overall I would recommend.

Stayed Oct 9, 2025Everything was wonderful. I just somehow didn’t get all the info I needed to get in. When I called, I got it and I figured it out, but it wasn’t completely smooth. The place was very cute and the location was perfect. A small detail was that I think the people who installed the mirrors was a little on the short side. We have a pretty comical photo of my husband and son in the mirror looking at their chests. ( they are both around 6’4”)

Stayed Jul 14, 2024My family and I loved our stay! The apartment was clean, comfortable, and is a pleasant walk to the boardwalk and coffee shops (The Buttery was delicious). I made a mistake when booking and the hosts were so understanding and communicated effectively with me the whole time. I would definitely stay here again!
