Condo was exactly as advertized, clean well appointed and situated near the beach and grocery shopping. We would have no hesitation in staying there again or recommending to others.

Wonderful Stay!

The condo was fabulous. Immaculate and exactly as shown in photos. It was spacious, well equipped, and conveniently located. Check in and out was flawless as outlined in detailed instructions from the owner. The only complaint that we had was that the pool was not open - a disappointment since we had children with us who were expecting a pool. Otherwise I would highly recommend this condo. A great bargain!!

Owner response:Our exterior pool is open seasonally from May through September. I have changed my website descriptions to reflect this more clearly and hopefully avoid any additional surprises to my future guests. Thank you!

Place is clean and kitchen is well equpped. Very near boardwalk yet away from busy pedestrian and auto traffic, Nice to return to a quiet, private respite after a busy day at the resort area/beach. Great security with coded building and room entrance as well as double bolt door. Washer/dryer in the unit a nice plus so you don't have to go home with dirty laundry. Owner very helpful and professional. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Mark's apartment was just perfect and exactly how it was described. Excellent location, easy to find, and very homely having all the facilities you could want. The pool was an added bonus with a better environment than some of the hotel pools, many of which are on the main road. Mark was very professional in my dealings with him and I would thoroughly recommend his apartment to you.

Mark's condo was every bit as wonderful as advertised. It was very clean and inviting and had everything we needed for our stay. The beds were very comfortable and we loved having a washer and dryer in the MBR. The location was really amazing, too. The grocery store was steps away and the beach and boardwalk a very short walk. Mark was extremely professional and pleasant to work with. We highly recommend this property.

Awesome family vacation

We arrived to the condo after a long day of driving to be extremely pleased with the condo. The owner obliously enjoys this property himself...because everything we needed was there. The owner called to confirm we arrived and see if we were in nned of anything. I thought that was very nice. My family was thrilled to find a tv and dvd player in every bedroom and the living area. Free wifi which I know some of the other people who had rented did not have. Kitchen was well stocked with dished, good pots and pans and even the knives were sharp. The condo is located a short walk to the beach which made it nice to come back for lunch. It was quiet in the evening which I appreciate. There are all kinds of shops and resturants within walking distance. Thre is even a supermarket across the street. We enjoyed this vacation so much that we plan to come back next year!!

Beautiful, comfortable condo

Unit is well equipped with everything that we needed. Beach decor was tasteful, and unit was clean and comfortable. We were able to get an additional parking pass for sons that live in the area to visit. Walking distance to the beach and grocery store. This was our family's first vacation to Virginia Beach, and we would definitely rent this unit again!

Fantastic Time!

July 21, 2011 We stayed at Mark's condo for our first family vacation in Virginia Beach. My wife, myself, son and daughter ages 10 and 15 respectively had a fantastic time. We were very unsure of what to expect. The condo was perfect for us. Everything that Mark advertises is true. The pictures do it no justice, the place is very clean, very secure, beautifully appointed and plenty of room for 4 to move around in and feel at home. We were actually the first ones to walk on the new carpeting! Obviously it won't be changed every time, but I'm sure you could expect everything to be very well attended to. Mark was only a phone call away and anytime I had any questions he got back to me right away. Mark had made many great suggestions for places to eat and hang out at night. There's a great market open 24 hrs.,just one block away for everything you need in case you don't feel like going out. We went down the week of Memorial Day weekend, the beaches were clean and the water was refreshing and like a bath. I have to say for our first time in Virginia Beach we were thoroughly pleased. It truly was one of the best relaxing vacations we have had in a long time. I attribute a lot of that to how Mark represented and took care of his place. As many of you know a great experience at a vacation location largely depends on the place you stay at, how well all amenities work as well as a location that is close to everything you want to enjoy. If you are at all picky(like me) about where you stay, you need look no further than Mark's place. We're already planning our stay there for next year! Thanks Mark, see you soon! Anthony D.

Shamrock Marathon 2011

Date of Stay: 03/18/11 Review Submitted: 03/25/11

We rented this condo for the weekend of the Shamrock Marathon. It was a fantastic location! We walked 12 blocks to the starting line (Cavalier) and the race ends on the block of the condo! We left our cars parked pretty much the whole weekend because we could walk everywhere! The condo was very clean and the kitchen was pretty well stocked for cooking meals (pots, pans, utensils, etc) I would definitely stay there again.

We stayed in Mark's condo for an extended period of time while in between moves. It was comfortable and clean and everything we were looking for in a long-term temporary home!

Two weeks at virginia beach Review submitted: August 20, 2010 Date of arrival: August 7, 2010 We arrived after a 5 days visit to New York City to have a quiet two weeks at the beach. And we were not disappointed! The appartment is great for a family of five (parents plus teenagers). Very nearby the ocean and the fun part of beach street. We will certainly recommend this appartment to our friends! Recommended for: families with young children, families with teenagers, sight seeing, tourists without a car

We had an absolutely fabulous time in the condo this past week. The place is gorgeous and we loved the balcony. Great place to have coffee in the morning and watch all the planes. Our family had an awesome time and there were no comment cards left in the bedroom so I wanted to drop you a note.
