My family and I loved our stay! The apartment was clean, comfortable, and is a pleasant walk to the boardwalk and coffee shops (The Buttery was delicious). I made a mistake when booking and the hosts were so understanding and communicated effectively with me the whole time. I would definitely stay here again!

Everything was very clean and just as pictured. No A/C, but turns out it wasn’t needed due to cool ocean air. We could walk to the beach and boardwalk easy enough, even though there was a lot of construction in the area. We stayed in to cook some of the time, and everything needed was there. My only complaint is I would have preferred to communicate via text instead of email. Otherwise it was a great place and we would go back!
