A great duplex on the beach. We stayed for a week in June and the beach was not overcrowded at all. Incredible ocean views from the deck. Donna was very responsive and we enjoyed it very much. Kitchen was amply supplied with everything you need but the food. The hot tub was a hit. Would definitely rent again.

Phenomenal stay for families with young kids

We absolutely loved our stay at Beachcomber! Surf City has become a favorite for our family. The home had everything we needed from beach toys to toddler dishes to high chairs and a pack n play. Being able to run back and forth to the beach cut way down on the typical chaos of leaving the house with young children. We could keep an eye on our 4 year old while he ran back to the house with his "treasures". The warm outdoor shower helped keep sandy mess to a minimum. We would be happy to stay here again - in fact we are already looking to book our next trip!

What a perfect stay and beautiful beach. We loved the sunrises, all the wildlife, including diving pelicans and a pod of dolphins! This was the best stocked kitchen of any vacation home we’ve ever stayed in. Everything was labeled and organized so well. Beds were very comfy! And the town was very cute too :).

Lovely accommodations and a great view of the beach. Beach access was easy and the porch was inviting. We watched the surf while we drank coffee in the morning and wine in the evening! Restful and restorative. While we needed little, Donna was very responsive when we reached out. As forewarned in the listing, the stairs, both inside and out, are steep so we factored that into our stay.
