My family stayed here June 5-11, 2021, and thoroughly enjoyed our time together. The four bedrooms on the third floor each have their own bathroom. The balconies on the second and third floor are awesome, and my family ate most of our meals and spent most of our time on the second-floor balcony. The third-floor balcony has the best views and is off the master bedroom. However, that balcony does not have any shade and it gets hot during the mornings and day.
The beach is steps away and there are plenty of chairs, some boogie boards, and 12 beach passes provided. Bring your own beach towels! There were no beach towels, or linens (bed sheets, blankets, towels, or pillows) while we were there (because of COVID) so we rented those items from Coastal Linen Supply – great customer service! They deliver the linens to the house and then pick up when you leave.
The elevator came in handy when entering the first floor and getting our luggage up to the third floor. My 90-year-old mother was so happy that she could navigate the house using the elevator.
The owner, Brian, is very responsive and we talked or sent a text to him almost every day. We were in contact with him because of issues we encountered. He quickly sent out repairmen. The one item that was not repaired was the dishwasher. It is so old that the control panel is unreadable. We finally figured out which button to push to wash our dishes. By the way, the dishes and coffee mugs are very old, and their design is worn and faded. There also were some pots and pans that had Teflon flaking off. There were other “little” items that were disappointing, and I sent those suggestions to Brian. He is a really nice guy.
My partner and I golfed at the Brigantine Golf Links and I would not recommend it. It’s undergoing needed renovations. And a guy mowed one of our golf balls in half on a green! We did explore Atlantic City’s boardwalk and saw how the 40% poverty rate has made the city a rough place. Won’t go back there again but will go back to Ocean City, NJ. It has a really fun, clean, and family friendly boardwalk.
I wish I could have given this property 5 stars. But the hassle of repairs, having to fill the propane tank for the grill ourselves, and wishing for decent pots and pans brought my rating down. Overall, we loved the house and do recommend it!
