We really enjoyed our stay at By the Sea. It has everything - Bikes, board games, water cooler, in room kitchen and washer/dryer, all beach gear. And most importantly if is a minute away from the beach , walking distance from Shopping and dining options. Good for family stay
Pankaj, 5-night trip

A bit of difficulty checking in but after that the place was great. Good location at the beach, We had a three bedroom condo that was great. I would definitely recommend this more!

Book this for your stay in the area

It’s rare for me to give such a glowing review, but this property was so much fun to stay at. It’s really steps away from the beach in one direction and steps away from the start of all the shops and restaurants in the other. The room was clean and modern, there were a ton of amenities to check out and use, and I wish we could have stayed far longer than the two nights we did. Can’t remember if all the rooms had an ocean view, but that made it more inviting.
