This was a nice location! It was fully furnished and well-stocked and so close to the beach! My daughter and I loved walking to the beach every morning to watch the sun rise.

Communication was great before and during stay. Everything we needed in the condo was available. One thing that didn't work was the grills ignitions didn't work so we had to buy a bic lighter. Also pool was closed because emergency phone didn't work.

Great place close to the beach!

Everything was really nice, clean and comfortable. There was even a partial view of the ocean. The only thing I would change was the plates and bowls were non microwave safe. It made things difficult to heat up. Everything eles was great!

The apartment is bright and spacious, which was a positive aspect of our stay. The beds and pillows were comfortable, and sleeping there was pleasant.However, cleanliness was an issue. There was a noticeable buildup of dirt under the furniture, suggesting it had not been cleaned thoroughly for a long time.The equipment was very basic: plastic dishes only, no toaster, and no electric kettle. The towels were old, and the bed sheets felt rough and had lint on them.Overall, the apartment has good potential, but improvements in cleanliness, linens, and basic amenities are needed to provide a better experience.

Oars Away was great for our off-season vacation in April. We had 5 adults, and it fit everyone well. It was nice to sleep so many adults without someone sleeping on a bunk bed, futon, or twin. The location was amazing because it was a 3-5 min walk to the beach, which could be accessed via the road/sidewalk or boardwalk. The view from the balcony was beautiful being so close to the beach! It was a 3 min drive to a Stripes gas station for beach passes or quick groceries, and a 5-10 min drive to other restaurants and larger grocery store. It was a clean unit with no sand lingering anywhere inside that we noticed. The property had a nice pool and pleasant outdoor eating/grilling section. Seagulls and grackles liked to bathe in the shallower parts of the pool; we found it entertaining, but it might wig some people out. Kitchen was pretty stocked with utensils, pots, pans, etc. Even a blender! There's a Keurig and standard coffee machine with its filters, but pods/grounds will need to be bought as of this review. All the plates/bowls were plastic and many of the cups. As of this review, you will need to buy bottled water and ice because there wasn't filtered water nor was the freezer producing ice. Dish soap, a sponge, dishwasher detergent, and laundry detergent were provided. Bathrooms were clean with plenty of places to hang towels. Ample bath towels, washcloths, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash provided. There was even a closet with beach towels and some beach toys!
