Everything was exactly as advertised and location was great. Hosts were very responsive when we had a question. We would stay here again.

Clean with a great location overlooking the ocean/nice beach within walking distance (0.5 miles) to restaurants. Very open living room/dining room area, however, a bit outdated with a small balcony and small second bathroom. Very easy check-in process and excellent communications with the property manager.

Location, location, location! Right on the beach, Rip Curl 2 is spacious, on the second floor so the view is spectacular with some privacy. The garage is a tight squeeze, not sure a really big car will fit, our BMW X3 just barely made it.

The location is excellent. You can walk to Belmont Park and quickly to the main drag for restaurants, bars and small shops. Steps from the ocean and boardwalk. The second level view was fantastic with the full front wall of windows. I have to give this property an overall rating of a three due to the cleanliness, or should I say "lack of" and lack of basic up keep. I am not on over the top clean freak but when dirt/ crud is visible, there is a problem. It appears that the cleaning agency changed sheets and towels and nothing more. Dishes, silverware and pot holders had food on them. Counter tops and dining table were visibly dirty. The paper towel/ Clorox wipes that I used to clean these surfaces confirmed how dirty they were. The kitchen cabinet doors were dirty. The family room rug had in-ground "food", and the dining table chairs, balcony cushions, bed spreads were "stained". The large front window had so many hand prints/smears that we had to wash them to see out. Part of the charm is that the building appeared to be from the 60/70s. A coat of paint, fixing cabinet doors that won't shut, replacing worn bath towels and a GOOD cleaning crew would do this property justice. Basic up keep is important. With a little help maybe it some day can be a 5 Star!
