Getaway
The location was definitely nice right next to the beach. Keep in mind you are no where close to the boardwalk. I may not have noticed in the picture that the one queen sized bed was up against a wall. I had to crawl into bed as my spouse was already asleep on the side that you can get in and out easily. Also had to crawl out when I had to get up at night which is not ideal. The living room was great. Love the big couch. TV stations were weird and I couldn’t for the life of me find a volume control. We had to strain at times to hear the TV. Overall for a weekend stay it was nice. Not thrilled about the 10:00 check out after a late 4pm check in just be aware.

Should have better instructions
There should be some written instructions for the property. I had to search between email and texts to try and figure things out. We didn't need the laundry room, but if we did no idea where it was or how to get in. Most places have a nice written book on rules and how to find things

Great location!!
Very happy with our stay! Super close to the beach access. Great to be able to bring the fur babies with us. The cleaning crew must have had the door open before we arrived because there were flies everywhere in the condo. Had to go purchase fly swatters right away to get rid of them. Also the super long door code was a bummer every time we had to open the door. Try a shorter one since it gets changed with every rental! Enjoyed ourselves greatly.

strong ammonia smell
When you walk in the door there is dark green carpeting and also in the bedroom. There is a strong ammonia smell when you walk in. The carpet I'm assuming is saturated with urine since it is a pet friendly property. The back patio also has carpeting and is stained and has cigarrette butts scattered. We are not smokers. Also if you have allergies this is not the palce for you due to smell and carpeting. This is our first poor VRBO expereince. The smell was nauseating. I actually sat with my shirt over my nose when we were inside. I wanted to go home! We were very disappointed. I reached out to property manger however there was no one available to clean though this would not have solved the problem. Pet friendly and beach area should not have carpeting for these issues.

Yikes!
Floor was filthy. The first thing husband did was sweep the food off the kitchen floor. Could not walk around barefoot. Yuck! Sand under and in sofa. Don't even want to tell you about bathroom floor that opens up into the kitchen. I can say the location was good being the end unit with beach access across the street. Oh, and cigarette butts greeted us on the balcony.

Cute and close to beach
We enjoyed our stay. Easy access to the beach from the back porch was great. The bedrooms were a bit tight and there really wasn't a place to sit down and eat, which might be a problem for a family on a longer stay. There are 2 stools in the kitchen where our kids sat, and we stood while eating. Overall, I'd recommend this property for a stay of a few days.

Would stay again
Was a great quiet pet friendly location. Wish back door was labeled. Was a little confused getting keys from lock box. Bedrooms were difficult to keep warm. But overall a great location for a quick get away.

Not a true 2 bedroom
It said it was a 2 bedroom that could sleep 6. I have no idea where 6 people would sleep there. There was a trundle that pulled out from under the bunkbed but it would hit the wall if you pulled it out and people in the bunk would step on the people on the floor if it was pulled out. The room was extremely narrow. The wall between the two bedrooms had 2 sliding closets doors that could be opened at any time. To get to the bathroom from the master, you had to walk through the other bedroom. It was extremely cold in the unit even with the heat on 70. I thought it was pricey for OC in Feb. The overall location was good. No inside table either.
