Quick getaway

We had a great stay at the condo, and it fit all our needs. Loved that the back porch faced the ocean and dunes, and the boardwalk was really close. We would definitely come back!

IR 102 is a great place to stay

Comfortable beds, clean throughout, nice patio, just a short walk to the beach. We loved it, and will be back! WiFi worked perfectly, as did the television with all the channels! Air worked great and so did the kitchen. I highly recommend this place.

Very comfortable ground floor condo.

We liked this place--especially that it had two bedrooms, each with a king-sized bed. Conveniently located--and on the ground floor. Nice that we didn't have to climb stairs with luggage and ice chests. A few issues which have been reported and hopefully will be corrected: Keurig quit working, ac had some problems, and the living room furniture needs to be reupholstered (looks tired and dirty). The condo was clean and well equipped. We would stay there again.

Ery Good Management company

There was actually a mechanical issue with the unit we had rented, but the management company moved us to an adjacent unit quickly that was similar to this property (a kitchen faucet needed replaced; maintenance likely could have replaced it while we were there, but due to the season they had ability and thus chose to move us and not interrupt our stay)

Island Retreat

We enjoyed our stay at the Island Retreat. The picture shows the beach view from this unit but we could not see the beach. The unit was clean when we got there. The shower/tub did not drain and we had about 2 inches of standing water in the tub while showering. The other shower needs a shower curtain or door to keep the floor from getting wet. It was a short walk to the beach down the boardwalk. Also, just a little suggesstion: Since the restaurants were so busy we ordered pizza but there was not a pizza cutter in the unit.

Great place

This condo was exactly as described and more. It was very very clean which we appreciated so much. It was in a perfect location close to the board walk to the beach and had a nice back porch. The neighbors were very friendly. We had an issue with the key code; however, it was quickly resolved by the property management (When they said they would have someone out to resolve the issue in 10-15 minutes, that is exactly what happened. We were honestly surprised!). Great place and we will go back again.
