Great family stay

Had a great family vacation. Property was in a great location and check-in was very easy. The year round neighbors that abut the property were also very nice to our 2 year old son, they even gave him a little toy! Would definitely stay again!

View of ocean incredible- Inside doesn't match outside

The property in general was OK. Mainly felt like the view was what we paid for. House Is OK, Kitchen nice. But definitely needs new carpet on steps as well as bathroom remodeling. Shower in downstairs bedroom was gross. Had to wear sandals. The outside deck was wonderful but extremely unsafe for our 2 year old grandson. Steps inside house also very unsafe for small children. To our Family it was not worth the price we paid.

Response from VrboOwner on 31 Mar 2020
Hi Brian, I'm sorry to hear that you weren't completely thrilled with your experience. We take pride in the cleanliness & condition of our home. We have used the same housekeeper for years and we usually perform a personal walkthrough each week before a new guest arrives. If the shower was not cleaned to your standards, we sincerely apologize and wish you had contacted us right away so we could have rectified the situation. We have never had a guest complaint about cleanliness and we take these comments very seriously. We are performing regular maintenance & upgrade projects and will take your feedback about the carpeted stairs & bathroom remodeling into consideration. Regarding safety, our own children have spent a great amount of time at this beach house over the years -- my 6 month-old & 24 month-old lived there for 2 months straight -- so we realize that while it is constructed 'to code', no home is completely child-proof. We hope our photos show the layout & details so parents can choose carefully when selecting a vacation home. Again, thank you for your feedback and we wish you the best in your future travels!

Perfect view, perfect location

This townhouse is in a great location with the most amazing, large back deck that overlooks the ocean. You can sunbathe on the deck while watching young children play on the beach. There are tons of restaurants, grocery stores, and fun activities nearby. It’s a win-win for all. I’ve already emailed the owner about rebooking for next year.

Great Place

We just came back from renting this property and it was wonderful. Just enough space, (we had 6 adults and 1 child) and the front deck is amazing. It is the best equipped rental that I have ever had, (coffeemaker, Keurig, lots of dishes and pots and pans, crock pot, etc). The neighbors next door were great, and lots of fun. I recommend this highly.

Wonderful Townhouse on Beach = Great Vacation!

We really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful townhouse. We comfortably fit mixed families with young children and teenagers in this home -- with plenty of privacy for everyone. We had no issue finding a parking spot either for 3 cars (1 is included). The location can't be beat, and makes for lugging things to the beach very simple. The property is super clean and very well maintained. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you so much for a memorable vacation! The owner was very attentive to any questions we had, which was much appreciated. I highly recommend this property.

Relaxing vacation!

We enjoyed our stay at this fabulous location. It was centrally located in Ocean City and within walking distance to several restaurants. The owners were very hospitable and the neighbors were friendly. Of course, our favorite aspect was the proximity to the beach! The unit was clean and the beds were comfortable. We would definitely choose to stay here again! Thank you for this opportunity.

I highly recommend this property for rental. First, the owners are extremely helpful and accomodating which makes the process very easy! The condo is conveniently located to everything, is exceptionally clean and has all the conveniences of home. The newly remodeled kitchen is beautiful. My only recommendation would be replacement of the mattress in the bedroom facing bayside.....it causes you to roll into the middle which makes it hard to get a good nights sleep. This will the place we rent year after year for our Sept family get-away.

I can't thank Melanie enough for giving me the opportunity of giving my family one of the greatest vacations ever. The townhouse was so homey, clean and everything we wanted and needed. The location of the property is perfect for adults and quiet time and teens to hop on the bus and off to the boardwalk. There was plenty of room for everyone. We miss your home and Ocean City already!

About the host

Hosted by Christine Guagliano

Host profile image

This home was owned by Donna Cole from Ellicott City, MD. Donna's parents bought this house in 1969, and her family has enjoyed it for over 50 years. When Donna passed, she left the house in the capable hands of her three children, who continue to enjoy this special home at the beach in her honor.

Why they chose this property

This is a rare gem - a quiet oceanfront home in a row of privately owned homes, most of which are owned by families that have been friends and acquaintances for decades! We are surrounded by single-family homes & low-rise condominiums, so our little section of town has no crowds and our beach is never crowded!

What makes this property unique

Private oceanfront home - walk down your own stairs and you are on the beach!
