Jun 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Immaculate, Well-Equipped Home with Great Owner & Easy Beach Access We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful, new property! The home is spotless, modern, and extremely well-equipped for a relaxing beach getaway. Communication with the owner was excellent from start to finish—they were friendly, responsive, and made sure everything was perfect for our arrival.The location is ideal, with easy access to the beach just a short walk away. We especially appreciated all the thoughtful extras provided for beach days, including several comfortable chairs, a sturdy beach wagon, and a sun-blocking tent that was easy to set up. It is also a short drive (or bike ride) to downtown surf city shopping and restaurants. The private backyard was a real highlight for us. We loved unwinding in the hot tub and gathering around the awesome firepit in the evening. Inside, the house is spacious and bright, with a great room that features a modern kitchen stocked with everything you need—full-sized appliances (including a garbage disposal), plenty of cookware, and all the kitchen gadgets required to enjoy meals at home. Most of the bedrooms have direct porch access, which was such a nice touch, and the two master suites with full baths offered plenty of privacy and comfort for two sets of parents. Overall, this property exceeded our expectations. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, well-appointed beach retreat!One Tip: Go to Andrews Produce for fresh veggies, fruits, salsa and homemade bread. ##### Doug C.
