Needs some love.

The condo is in a great location but really needs a face lift. Condo wasn’t clean upon arrival as if it had sat for awhile. Sofa which is a pull out sinks in when sat on and unfortunately it’s the only place to relax at the end of day. Owner did respond to a disturbing bug situation but it pretty much set the tone of our stay. With tax and insurance this place was 325.00 per night and there are others much more inviting in area.

Amazing first trip to the Cape…

We had an amazing first trip to the Cape. Everything was as promised. And, such a quick walk to the beach. Fun was had by all, including our kids and fur baby.

Above and Beyond

Our trip was cut short because our new granddaughter decided to come a month early and we had to rush home. However, we loved the property which was beautiful and peaceful. The unit had everything we needed and was very clean. In the hurry to pack, I forgot my pillows. Devi immediately offered to send them to me as a “gift” to the grandparents! Such a kind gesture…wow! Would love to come back and spend a whole week! 😊

End of summer trip

Everything was just as it was displayed in the listing! The unit we rented was very well-kept up. It was a short walk to the beach from our unit and the beach was not at all busy like other places we have stayed in the past. The unit had all of the kitchen items that we needed, up-to-date TVs and streaming services, plenty of room for our family plus an additional teenage friend for my daughter. There was a beach supply closet that included chairs etc. which were a lovely thing to have access to as we do not own our own. The shower and hose underneath the condo were perfect for cleaning off before we went inside. There were plenty of linens available including some towels for our medium size dog that we brought with us. I would definitely consider renting this unit again!

Perfect for 6

What you see, is what you get and then some. Very nice and convenient for pool and beach. We brought an air mattress so we didn’t have to use the pull out couch. Worked great. Had small issue with oven and owners came asap and had us up and running. Very accommodating! Loved everything about our stay!

Very nice home with great proximity to the beach

We loved this property for many reasons. The home is beautiful and very spacious. It has every utensil in the kitchen you can think of as well as having regular coffee maker and kureg maker. The carport has nice beach chairs, beach cart, and beach toys which made is great. The master bedroom/bathroom is very comfortable and large. And I don't know if it's actually 150 steps to the beach, but its very close and takes about less than 2 minutes to the sand and waves. Wendy is very nice and very timely in her responses to any questions. The ONLY small complaint I may have is the wifi there CONSTANTLY cut out the whole week we were there and kept cutting off my YouTube vids. We will absolutely be staying at Cape Escape again though.
