Girls trip

We loved all the extras for the beach and the fully stocked kitchen. The toaster oven and the keurig were not working and some of the bedroom plugs did not. There was plenty of seating. The beach attendant was very nice and helpful. The beds were very comfortable. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend.

Beautiful location but needs updates

The unit was clean but needs updating. The pictures were accurate but taken many years ago. Electrical outlets on wall between living room and master did not work therefore neither tv worked either! Cookware and utensils were very limited. Overall stay was good but is in serious need of some TLC.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Surf Dweller is a great building with wonderful balcony views right on the ocean. We have stayed at multiple rooms in this building. This particular unit does need some updating. There is no closet in the master bedroom as listed in the unit description ...a bit odd! The kitchen is fairly well stocked however it needs some sharp knives and large skillets!! Having beach service is a plus and Devan is absolutely wonderful!

Surf Dweller 402 March of 2023

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay in 402. It was clean and nicely set up. The whole complex was well kept and quiet. One thing we appreciated over other condos we have stayed at was the quiet. We did not hear any noise from outside our unit. The only complaint I have is the cleaning people came at 8:30 am. Checkout time said 10 am but they were early. We were not ready to go so they waited outside the door until we left.
