We had a wonderful time! The condo was clean, comfortable, and fully stocked with everything we needed. The location was perfect—we loved being able to walk right out to the beach and relax on the patio while watching the waves. We would definitely stay here again!
We loved our stay here! We enjoyed our first visit in September so much that we returned to this same unit last week for 5 days. The location is ideal for beach access and the condo is clean, updated and stylishly decorated. Betsy is a wonderful host and is easy to communicate with. We will return again soon.
Great 1 bedroom condo with essentially walk out beach access. Possible second bed with a fold down Murphy bed. Short walk, less than one mile, from the pier and downtown. Has a gated patio. Will definitely be looking to come back.
The condo is beautiful and comfortable. My grandsons had fun playing on the grassy area while my daughter and I sipped coffee on the patio. The ocean view and very short walk to the beach were perfect! We will definitely book this one again!
Amazing condo steps from the beach. Downstairs unit with a back patio and grass. Lots of great upgrades. Only negative is some traffic noise on the weekends.

We loved our 4 days in D5! We’ve stayed in other units but we decided this was our favorite. It was so nice and clean and so close to everything!! We loved the beds and the towels! Thank you for having water for us upon arrival!! There was paper towels, toilet paper, soap and garbage bags. We appreciated everything! Can’t wait to come back

Thank you for the 5-STAR review! As owners taking over the management of the unit, we want to insure that D5 meets or exceeds our guest's expectations. Special touches such as water, luxury towels & sheets, etc. create the perfect place to make new memories. We value your feedback and look forward to seeing you in the future.
Without a doubt, this was one of the best vacations our family has ever had. My kids still keep saying, “This was the best vacation ever,” and I couldn’t agree more.The condo was spotless, beautifully maintained, and stocked with absolutely everything we could have needed and more. We had ordered some things for delivery and we didn’t even use the boogie board we bought because there were a few in the bin. We left it, a children’s puddle jumper and sand toys for other families to enjoy. The location is unbeatable. Being just steps from the beach was amazing. My husband would take our beach chairs out early every morning and we would have a spot saved out there all day. Being so close you can return to the cottage throughout the day to eat and cool down. My kids loved it, It’s honestly the perfect beach and location for kids!! The grounds at North Coast Village are absolutely gorgeous. The landscaping, pool, and overall atmosphere made it feel like a tropical oasis. Check-in and check-out were effortless, and communication with the hosts was excellent. We never even needed to reach out during our stay because everything was so thoughtfully prepared.I honestly don’t have a single negative thing to say. Every detail exceeded our expectations and made for an unforgettable family vacation. Thank you for creating such a wonderful place for families to make memories. We absolutely fell in love with it and will be returning year after year. We can’t wait to come back!

Thank you for the awesome 5 STAR review. We strive to create an experience that far exceeds your expectations! It warms my heart to know that we succeeded and that you were able to enjoy your visit and create lots of new memories! We'd love to host you again!
My husband and I grew up in the mid-west. After college we moved to the Phoenix area and fell in love. We raised a family, built our careers and plan to retire with a load of grandkids! We are avid divers, sun and ocean people. A-Shore Thing is our "surfer shack" but land locked...lol.
Why they chose this property
We had been visiting North Coast Village for many, many years before we had an opportunity to purchase. When the opportunity arose, it was a done deal! We have always enjoyed the ocean, sun and any activity that kept us close by.
What makes this property unique
A-Shore Thing is a 1 bedroom/1 bath south facing, lower level cottage approximately 20 steps to the beach & Strand.
