Family vacation

It was an excellent location, we could walk to the beach, and then drive to eat or shop in 5 minutes. The pool we were able to swim at was great really fun for my grandkids with the slide. The beds were good and having five bathrooms was incredible. Definitely will stay here again!!

We had a great time and the kids loved the pool! It is right on the street so we got tons of road noise. I messaged the host about a week before we left asking if they had any beach items at the place we could use and he never responded. We did figure out how to rent beach chair and covering, but any information from the host about this would have been helpful. Also, the access to watch tv was very difficult. We could not sign in to any of our streaming devices and the tvs in the king bedrooms didn’t work. Place was very clean and had easy checkout!

Will stay again!

Our stay at the condo was absolutely delightful! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the cleanliness and cozy ambiance. The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The highlight for our family was definitely the fantastic pool with its exhilarating slide – the kids had an absolute blast! The location was perfect, offering beautiful views and easy access to the beach. We couldn't have asked for a better place to relax and enjoy our vacation. Highly recommended for families looking for a memorable beach getaway!"

Awesome pool & close to the beach!

We loved EVERYTHING about this property and our stay. We had 5 adults, 2 pre-teens and a 3yr old and had plenty of space. We never felt like we were on top of each other. This location is really close to the beach. If you absolutely needed to you could walk to and from the beach. The pool was awesome but we only wished it was bigger due to the amount of people always swimming. We would definitely stay here again!

July 4th Family Trip

Satisfied with the Condo and the cleaness of it all, would rent again. The only 2 things I could say to improve on is the parking. Not enough slots to park per room. Also the code I was given to the pool never worked and I had to keep waiting for someone to open the door for us to go in.

Family Fun in PA

Really enjoyed our time in PA. Condo was well laid out and worked really well for our family. Pool gets really crowded in the evenings so we opted for pool time earlier in the day and enjoyed the beach late afternoon and evening. This unit is right next to 11th street so expect some traffic noise when sitting out on the balconies. Heard zero traffic noise when inside. We were able to park two golf carts in the gravel area when not running around town.

Place is perfect if you don’t mind the stairs. Lots of space to all hang out and then room for everyone to spread out. All the supplies needed in the kitchen- DILs weren’t anticipating a drip coffee pot so weren’t prepared - but they figured it out. TVs took me a few days to figure out but I’m sure that’s just my age showing. Overall great location and very nice accommodations. Pool was fantastic - between 10-12 everyday we had it to ourselves. Beds!!! Awesome- they were super comfortable compared to other places we have stayed.
