The property itself was clean, conveniently located and a quaint little hideaway. As senior citizens the platform bed was uncomfortable for us to get in and out of. That discomfort was exacerbated by the thin foam mattress on plywood and the bed being against a wall making getting in and out the bed uncomfortable. This issue may have been avoided by more detailed info. about the bedding. In fairness this review is not a complaint per se but rather a critique. The cottage absolutely serves younger people and young families quite well. The staff was easily accessible, polite and professional in resolving a problem we had with the cable TV. We greatly appreciated how proactive your staff waa in resolving the issue vs. saying, " We called Spectrum it's out of our hands ". The staff taking a personal interest in resolving our TV problem made a big difference in how we viewed our time in the cottage as well as our time as Surf City❣️👍
Unbelievably Fantastic Customer Service & Location
This little studio is super cute and perfect for two. Just across the street from the beach and right behind the Trailer Bar (with live music !). I can't say enough about how friendly and helpful the management team was as we had to extend our stay several times. What at wonderful place for a beach vacation!!
Quant little spot for a couple's getaway - a block from the beach and short driving distance to shops and restaurants. Will definitely visit this area in the future. Thanks!
