Exactly as described! Ideal location and size for family with 3 non-driving teens looking to be a block from public beach access and a few walkable blocks to the boardwalk. Super convenient. Plenty of extra blankets for when weather got chilly. Thanks!

Location was the highlight - walked to everything except Publix. Four adults and 3 toddlers felt a little tight but condo was comfortable and well equipped. Hot water - nice showers. We had a check-in problem with door code and the host was very responsive. Great communications throughout the process. Parking situation was excellent. Could do better with beach accessories in a garage storage box. Hard to tell if there was anything useful among lots of tangled junk.

Check in was seamless. Host was a great communicator. Location was prime. It was one house back from the beach and a quick walk to the boardwalk and the closest public beach acess was super close! The place was cleaned well. The grill outside was really dirty, but thats probably more on the person before us. The only reason I didnt leave 5 stars was due to the quality of the essentials for our taste. The beds were not comfortable to us. I actuality ended up sleeping in one of the non master bedrooms because the king in the master had me waking up in discomfort the next morning. I also tend to go for higher quality linens than those on the beds. Its a rental, so I get not wanting to spend a ton on them, but it does leaving you wanting more. I'm sure if you paid more for a place nightly then one could get those finer things. For the price, you really cant beat this place.
