Great loc & view, needs fixes
You can’t get closer to the beach. It’s not a very big stretch of beach (maybe 30-50 ft from balcony to surf during hi/low tide), but sand is smooth and water pretty clear. There’s no exit off the balcony so you do need to walk down one flight of stairs and over to walkway about 40ft away. Very close. Overall the condo is okay. Bringing all the linens and paper products is standard for me, so that was no issue. But the huge list of checkout instructions was a bit much. Not sure why we paid a cleaning service fee b/c we left it cleaner than we found it. The shower heads in full bath need replaced. Just not strong enough jet. The fan over master bed was very wobbly so we didn’t use it. The patio doors need replaced immediately. We didn’t call maintenance b/c it requires actual new doors. The entire set is rusted and hard to slide, and glass door actually lifts out of track on bottom. It was usable but a real pain in butt. My kids weren’t able to open/shut door so we had to do it. When I called before check in to say we might be late, lady said our keys would be out front of office in a box. When I asked for code to unlock that box, she said there was no lock. I do not think condo keys along with my check-in and personal info should be in an unsecured box! Luckily we got there right at closing time so it wasn’t an issue. And when we left, the keys get dropped into a slot that slides inside office, like a bank or library overnight slot, so they’re secure. There aren’t a ton of restaurant choices but check out the tiny Island Delights. Very good sandwiches. If you go boating in the ICW, rent from Topsail. Then go about a quarter mile to Sailfish for dinner. Stop there because there isn’t anything else for many miles. There are other marinas but not with food beyond chips and candy. Traffic absolutely sucks because it is such a tiny spot, so make sure you get to the Walmart first and don’t go back past the bridge again. It takes forever. Worse than Bethany Beach or OB.
