Absolutely in love with this place. Be prepared for the stairs but so extremely worth it.
Location phenomenal! Hosts are quick to respond and very nice. The front door lock sticks a bit. Hopefully that will be fixed soon.

We had a great stay! The condo was extremely roomy and clean, and an easy walk to the beach. We could walk to the boardwalk and restaurants, but were far enough away to be out of the busiest area.

Homey and comfortable, we would stay again!
Access was easy and convenient. The location, view, and pool are wonderful. Perfect arrangement for our family with a teenager. More bath and kitchen towels would be helpful and an updated TV in the main room would be nice. We had to rewash the dishes before use, but that is a temporary issue.

Great views and great room.
We were texted the code to get in and that was great. The only thing I would suggest is that in the text message add the information on where to pick up the parking pass. The room was great with a great view. We reserved our stay with 3 guest and we received only 2 wash clothes and I didn't realize that once the roll of toliet paper was gone we would have to supply the next roll.
