The location to the beach alone is worth it! Walkinh distance to a decent breakfast spot, and dinner if you're not looking to drive. Easy check in and out. No worries at all. Maybe this will be our annual vacation spot?!?!

Beach fun

We loved our stay, it wasn’t too big but not too small. The kids loved getting to sleep on a pull out couch it was a highlight! The beach was just a short walk away which we loved and appreciated .

Great Getaway!

We enjoyed our stay and would certainly consider a stay again. It’s at a great quiet location, steps to the sand and also has many amenities. The parking is under the units and a little tight for a large SUV, but maneuverable with finesse lol!

This place was perfect for a long weekend for a family of 4. It is extremely close to the beach, the neighborhood is clean and quiet and the location is well situated between Ocean City and Delaware for quick trips up or down the coast. Everything in the unit was good quality and well kept. Would highly recommend staying here, everything was perfect.

Perfect Beach getaway

This condo is the perfect spot for your beach getaway. The condo has everything you need from your own parking space to your own beach access - which made the beach free like your own personal beach. The location is perfect access to popular restaurants and grocery stores. Communication with Cathy and Eric was easy as well. I highly recommend staying here the next time you visit Ocean City, Md.

Property located very close to the beach, great location also has WaWa, liquor store, and food markets withing a 5 minute walk.. We were there for 4th of July, so overly loud with people coming and going from the beach at night and fireworks for 3 straight days - unsure if that is common all other weekends. Condo was perfect size for our family and for the most part very clean. However, looks like the cleaners have neglected the ceiling fans as they had a TON of dust built up on all fans. Would recommend a stay at this property. Would stay again. Owner was quick with responses and accomodated special request for children. This particular unit does not have private deck and faces a parking lot. Overall, very plesant stay. Recommended.

Honeymoon surprise

My wife and I stayed here one week for our honeymoon. The hosts were fantastic and thought of everything. We were greeted with a bottle of champagne and sweet note congratulating us on our marriage. The apartment itself was clean and appeared exactly as described. All of the appliances were new and ready to be used with helpful notes around the house for easy use. There was even a few types of phone chargers set out in case we had forgotten ours. I felt at home and as though all the little details were thought through. The hosts had even left a detailed binder with their contact information, information on check in/out, and local attractions and food places they enjoy. With the apartment being just a few steps from the beach it made for a lovely and convenient place to stay. If we’re ever in town, we would not hesitate to stay here again!
