The unit and neighborhood was clean and quiet. The bedroom and bathroom both clean and comfortable. The Kitchen had everything we needed and everything worked well. Just a few steps from the beach via the boardwalk. Since this is a first floor unit, the view of the beach from the porch is obstructed by the high dunes, shrubbery, trees etc. But we really enjoyed our daily walks and bike rides on the beach as well as the many bike paths on the Island. We brought our own bikes and there were plenty of bike racks available to store and lock our bikes. ##### Peter W. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diane E.

I have high standards (and expectations) of any accommodations, and this property did not disappoint. It’s a fabulous location for easy beach access. It’s very clean. It’s well appointed and decorated. It’s ideal for two people. Communication was excellent. We logged into our Netflix easily and there are countless other channels. The only thing to note is the shower. (Pull the knob straight out to turn on! ) We had to call the manager because we couldn’t figure it out. Overall, a lovely unit. We wouldn’t hesitate to return. ##### Diane E. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### angela a.
