Perfect condo for our little family

Very clean, well supplied condo with great views of the ocean. The beach is just steps from the condo with several places to access the sand and each had an outdoor shower. Having a private parking place with an area to store our beach chairs was so convenient. TThis wad

Great Time at Ocean Dunes 1603

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ocean Dunes 1603 was perfect for the two of us. Ocean front view was great. Exactly as pictured, very clean and well stocked. We had three issues that A1 promptly took care of. Toilet tank quit filling, repaired that day. A/C quit cooling, repaired that same day. Ice maker in fridge wasn’t working. David( property manager?) offered to bring bags of ice when it was determined ice maker couldn’t be repaired. We came back later in the day to find a counter top ice maker was brought in!! Now that’s customer service! Kudos to Kayla in the office, David and a few others for their professionalism. Everyone at A1 was very friendly, professional and focused on our satisfaction. Ocean Dunes 1603 is a beautiful unit with the upstairs loft with 2nd bathroom. The spiral stairs can be a little scary but we had no issues going up or down. We will rent again from A1 Property Management! And have decided to rent 1603 again this year if possible. We love how quiet it was at this particular building. Great job A1! We will recommend you guys and can’t wait to come back!!
