Loved our stay at this location! Everything was great. Rooms were clean, and the place was stocked well to make the stay smooth. Host was friendly and helpful. Appreciated the notice that the property was ready for check-in a little early. Kitchen is well stocked with utensils, silverware, appliances, etc for cooking. Would definitely stay at this location again!

Lovely condo

Beach Box was clean, comfortable and convenient. The deck was a lovely place to sit and enjoy the sounds of the ocean. The condo was well equipped and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owners were very responsive to our questions and quickly resolved any minor concerns (like what kind of coffee maker there is…it’s a Keurig!)We look forward to staying at the Beach Box again!

Relaxing Beach Vacation

Our family very much enjoyed our stay at the condo. The children immediately commented on how much it offered, and we agree, with the fun whimsical beach decor to the added amentities of games, seating, and beautiful view. The extras provided made it an entirely stress free stay and we appreciated not having to pack our entire home just to vacation. It was comfortable and thoughtful touches made it easy for the guest to enjoy the maximum relaxation of the ocean and beach. The location cannot be beat. We will definitely be back at the Beach Box.

LOVED IT!

Rarely are online descriptions truly accurate, but this one was. The condo is very nicely decorated and has everything you could possibly need. And the view? Oh my goodness. It couldn't get much better! The beach is right there - feet away. Communication with Tom was easy and fast. I do wish the elevator didn’t require a key, so you don’t have to walk up to the condo, get the key, and go back to the rest of your stuff, but that’s not the owner’s fault. I’m a stickler for cleanliness and the entire place was CLEAN! We did find long hairs in some places but, because the place was otherwise spotless, I’m assuming the hair was from the cleaning person and not sure that can really be helped. I’m hoping that the hubs and I can stay here on our way back from Hampton next month, after we take our youngest back to school. If you’re on the fence about this place, get off and book it!
