Rated a 4star because all in all, if I wasnt in need of a placewith great View and some room to breathe, I would stay here again.
Firstly, Here's the bad...
Definitely a tight stay. Rooms appear larger in pics. Master bedroom was large and roomy & other room was Pretty tight, as well as the kitchen and dining area. Once you fold out sofa bed, that room became unusable except for sleeping. The balcony looked directly at trees and all it had were few seats to look at nothing but trees you can barely see though. It provided ok shade but a table to eat crabs or some sort of group hang out would have been better. It's not like the seating equipped the View so an outdoor eating/gathering space would've been better. Washing machine wasn't easy to use and there were storage etc everywhere that you couldn't access things to use. I guess owner kept their stuff there. Just took up space in an already cramped area. Definitely bring your own toilet paper, ice, dishwasher, garbage bags etc. Absolutely nothing provided except $1 tp that lasted a day. The worst was parking. We came Sat-Tues and not many cars but was so difficult to get in and out because underneath parking was so tight! I drive a 4runner so small cars wools be better here.
The good, it's a short distance 4min walk from beach and quiet area. Across the street from 5guys & indoor/outdoor put golf and games. 15min drive to boardwalk on a good day. Very clean and furnishings pretty nice condition. I typically stay around 54th st or 121st and
I would stay here again 131 st but not as a first choice. Especially with older teens or adult group. Just not enough to do there within walking distance. Unless u don't mind walking a mile or more to a bar or restaurant. That was disappointing. Reviews said lots to do. Maybe if you have never been to OC before it's ok. If you're a frequent visitor, you may be bored.
