Condo was beautiful and clean, bed was extremely comfortable! Distance to the beach and boardwalk was great. Host was very communicative. Definitely planning to stay here again!
This was the perfect stay for a weekend getaway with kids! The location was perfect; walking distance to the boardwalk and downtown shopping. Jody was such an amazing host. She even accommodated an early check-in due to bad weather. She was so attentive and communicative. Highly recommend!
Outstanding location. Near everything. Parking spots very tight. The unit was clean but it smelled. One room smelled like industrial cleaner. The bedroom smelled like smoke. They do not provide and sheets or towels which is very odd and unlike any VRBO we’ve been to. AC in the main room doesn’t work. Bedroom AC works well. Small but it meets the needs of a couple who wants to enjoy OC.
Great apartment to rent. The host accommodates me with a pack and play crib which was very helpful. The parking spot was clutch and the walk to the beach is easy

Thanks so much for your stay! We lopok fwd to hosting you again soon
Great Location for a quick trip to the Boardwalk for a long weekend! Loved the location, which was easy walking distance to the boardwalk and shops and local places to eat. Clean unit! Heat and A/c available. Very quiet location! The elevator and laundry room was closed for maintenance which posed a minor inconvenience when carry luggage up floor flights of stairs. Covered parking was nice!

Thanks so much for your stay and review. We apologize for the repair state of the elevator . Unfortunately that part is out of our hands as its a condominium building . It will be repaired Monday. Thanks again
Comfortable and accommodating lodging. Host was cordial and responsive. Location and free onsite parking were ideal. We needed to bring our own pillows and blankets since these are not furnished, and we took advantage of a local linen service for bed and bath linens. Check-in was a bit bumpy since, with all the other information we received about the property ahead of our stay, we totally missed seeing the instruction to look specifically on the wall for our keybox right in front of our assigned parking space.(Instead we were distracted by a line of lock boxes on the door to the elevator and stairs.) It would really help to have a printed set of instructions inside the lodging that details how to work the TV. (We had no idea what Roku meant or how it works and, in the end, we gave up.)Guests who only know traditional cable or over-the-air television or who have not been exposed to alternative video technology will appreciate this—especially if they are older. We are also VRBO hosts, and in our guest house we have a permanent binder that details how everything in the house works: stove, oven, HVAC, security system, circuit breakers, internet/WiFi, who to call at 3am if something goes awfully wrong (which actually never has). This fully duplicates information that is also available in the VRBO app, but is easier for our guests to use than to scroll through a small screen. We assume nothing is obvious to anyone and our guests love our attention these details.
Thank you for choosing a JiLLy's Property for your stay in OCNJ and for the kind review. We loved hosting you and welcome the chance to host you and your family during your next stay.
The location is wonderful, close to boards and downtown. Very walkable location. The host was wonderful, there was great communication and host was quick to resolve any issues.
The location was excellent, and the accommodations were exactly as advertised. We felt very comfortable throughout our stay and really appreciated the thoughtful welcome gift basket. Whenever we had questions, the host responded promptly and helpfully through the VRBO messaging app. We would definitely stay here again!

Thanks so much for your stay and awesome review! We look fwd to hosting you again soon !
We enjoyed our stay! The apartment was very clean and fit our family perfectly. The proximity to the boardwalk made for easy quick fun for kiddos and easy access to the beach. The host was very communicative and check-in and out process was very easy and simple. The kids loved the goodies they provided when we arrived too. Would stay again, highly recommend.
Our stay here was everything we hoped it would be. Room was clean and had everything we needed. Location is great, just blocks from the boardwalk and restaurants. The only downside is that I now have to buy a new mattress because my wife slept better there than at home.

Thanks so much for your stay and fantastic review! PS- The Mattress is from Bobs's Furniture! Hope to see you again soon !
This is our second year booking with Jillys and we couldn’t be happier! The check-in process is a breeze, the room was clean and all of the information we needed was readily available for us. It made renting a place on vacation stress free and we can’t wait to stay with them again.
Property was exactly what we needed! Close to the beach and boardwalk; clean and secure. Provided a specific parking spot for convenience. Highly recommend. Thanks for a great few days with the family!

Thank you for choosing a JiLLy's Property for your OCNJ stay and for the lovely review. We enjoyed hosting you and welcome the chance to host you and your family again.
This was both my partner and I first vacation as “adults” without our immediate families. We found the booking process to be clean and trustworthy along with the professionalism to be top tier. I love the location and to be able to walk to the boardwalk within 2 minutes. We enjoyed the hotel like feel but a homey touch. Will definitely be staying again and will absolutely be recommending to friends and family for future vacations!!
