Rockaway Shores

We had a blast for the weekend, and my kids didn't want to leave. It was relaxing and quiet, felt more like home than a hotel, and the beach is right down the sidewalk with ocean views from the condo. Everything we needed was there: a full kitchen, board games, beach gear, a Wii, and a PlayStation. We'll definitely be back many times over the years.

We booked the condo at the last minute for a weekend with my girls, my daughters, and were so impressed. The owner was gracious and quick to respond. Our place was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy the weekend. It was peaceful and quiet, with a very short walk to the beach. Thanks for making our weekend special.

You can walk to the beach, and it was quiet, but there wasn’t a view or any amenities like a pool or hot tub. The decor was nice enough. Most units seem to be owner occupied, and we happened to get one of the few rentals. It had serious ventilation problems, with Glade plug-ins in the halls trying to cover up the mold and mildew smell.

We booked through Expedia on October 12 for two nights starting that same day, but never received the information we needed to get into the property. We tried the owners by email and called the numbers provided several times. No one responded, so we had to find somewhere else to stay. We never heard from them afterward, and they kept our money. To me, failing to provide the service after taking payment is fraud. Expedia let the property be booked on the day of arrival, even though its instructions said there was no front desk, guests needed to contact the property at least 48 hours ahead to arrange check-in, and access details and a code would be emailed 48 hours before arrival. It also said the unit had a private entrance.
