Beachy Keen was a lovely place to stay. It was clean and had everything we needed to make our visit comfortable. The beach was beautiful and Wilmington is roughly a 30 minute drive away if you want to go out for a nice dinner or do some shopping.

The only issue we had was the key pad to the door would not work with the code on day 2 after coming up from the beach. I had my phone and was able to call and get it straightened out quickly. Just worrisome for a few minutes. Apparently I needed to pull back on the door and it may have been jammed? Never had that issue before, but it was a good lesson. Everything else was great. Clean, easy access to the beach.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for the positive comments about the cleanliness and easy beach access. I am sorry for the worry caused when the keypad code did not work on the second day. I regret that the door may have been jammed and that you had to troubleshoot it yourself. I will look into the keypad and door alignment to help prevent this kind of concern in the future.

Perfect location

We have been visiting CB annually for many years. We have stayed many places and this location was perfect - walking distance to the boardwalk and all the restaurants and shops. Not to mention right on the beach with private access! Would definitely stay here again! Rental company was communicative and so easy to work with!

Great Stay!

We really enjoyed our time at Beachy Keen the location was perfect with small kids easy to walk back and forth to the condo from the beach and the pool was a great size for them too. We were able to walk to the boardwalk area and it’s very convenient to lots of other shops and restaurants. The condo itself was clean and the space worked well for our family of 4.

Beautiful property, clean, well taken care of. Check in process and communications were top notch. Location to the beach was perfect. Cleanliness was evident and presentation was on point. Unit is a bit aged with decorations and the towels could use a refresh as they seemed to be a bit old. Also just a suggestion, not a knock, would be convenient if there were toiletries included with the stay (IE Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Wash, etc). Overall great experience and loved the stay. Would 100% stay here again.

No view. The advertisement claimed that there were excellent views of the ocean. In reality, you cannot even see the ocean unless you are standing up in the living room. The "view" is of the back of the high sand dunes.

Great oceanfront location!

My friends and I enjoyed this property with it's easy access to the beach and also short walk to the Boardwalk area. One suggestion we had is that more seating be added to the balcony area. There's only two chairs, which doesn't match the occupancy of the unit.
