Family of 4 (kids 5 and under) had a blast in this house and the core offerings of beach access and community pool. Basically walked to the beach every morning and did the pool in the afternoon until the kids were just spent! Jill even notified us on our arrival day when the rental was available BEFORE the 3pm check-in time. Much appreciated! The townhome has a very functional layout, modern aesthetic, and two good outdoor decks to relax on (although not much privacy on those decks). Great times despite the pandemic.
Walk to the beach is basically 3.5 full blocks, but not too bad. The bike with wagon hitch attached was very useful as I would ride all of our beach stuff the few blocks down to the beach and the kids could walk at their own pace (leisurely).
Being an easy 10 minute walk from the main drag of Bethany restaurants/shops was nice, but we usually drove as we picked up food to-go.
Townhome backs directly up to Coastal Highway which, occasionally brought about loud trucking noises; but after the 1st night, the whirring began to sound like a white noise machine imitating the ocean, which is fairly common and calming in our house. Long way of saying--not really an issue.
Ping Pong Table, Scooter, Bikes - not really utilized by us, but could be really nice perks for those with older kids.
Thanks again Jill!
