I’d give this place and the overall experience a 3.5 out of 5.
My fiancé and I stood here for 4 nights and we typically stay at 4 star hotels. We stayed during the COVID-19 pandemic and knew there were restrictions prior to renting the apartment but it was not a major inconvenience. The owner stated that we needed to bring our own bedding set, kitchen utensils and cleaning products. We had a minor issue due to sand being on the table and inside the drawer but the owner quickly offered to resolve it.
Here are my honest pros and cons:
Pros:
-Great location, 2 minute walk to the beach
-Owner is very responsive and overall provided great customer service
-Kitchen including fridge is spacious, although we did not cook
-Reasonably sized bedroom closet with provided hangers
-Clean bathroom, a little small but enough room for the essentials
-Pool access, although we didn’t use it
-Parking pass is a plus, is limited to Wildwood Crest town
-Mattress is ok, we only slept in the double bed and are used to sleeping on a memory foam bed so a little spoiled in this area
Cons:
-Most dresser drawers are broken and were sandy, we cleaned it
-Furniture seems outdated
-Toilet paper holder is missing
-Futon mattress is too thin
-Kitchen table retains sand
-Shower head is a little loose
I provided the pros and cons to the owner and he stated that he will look into making improvements for next season. Overall I would recommend staying here, especially after the improvements are made.
