Had to park blocks away since they donât provide parking. Shower knob is locked so you canât make it hot just barely warm and the shower head isnât well adjusted I had to hold it the whole time.
The condo was perfect for our long weekend stay! Down the street from the beach and plenty of restaurants within a walkable distance. Quiet neighborhood as well! Perfect for couples!
Close to the beach, short walk down the street. The place is also a short walk from a deli/grocery, pizza, and ice cream. Nice stay! Only downside would be that parking is very limited.
The condo was perfect for our brief stay in OCNJ. Great location with a quick walk to the beach. Condo came equipped with everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable. We would highly recommend this property and definitely be back next season.
Small, well-kept apartment with pleasant covered deck; good for a couple. Excellent location around the corner from the Island Grill and a 5-minute walk from the end of the boardwalk.
We had a great stay! It's an excellent location and perfect size for a couple. The porch is also great. Check in/out was easy and we had no issues- we would definitely stay again. Thank you!
The house was clean and neat, the bed and futon were super comfortable, the location and neighborhood perfect and the owner, super nice. All in all a great stay!!
Great location! So close to the beach and boardwalk in a quiet neighborhood!
We will definitely go back and go more prepared next time with toilet paper, hand soap, kitchen and bath towels, spices and wine glasses!
Well kept and convenient. Only item to highlight is the size of the bathroom sink, which is too small. Water spills onto the floor every time it is used. Otherwise, I had a relaxing time.

I didn't quite realize how very small this place was. It was fine for just me, but it would be tight with two people.
My only complaint is an odor in the living room and on the futon. It think it might be from cleaning spray, but I am sensitive to fragrances and was bothered by the smell.
NOT GOOD! Dirty, dusty! Floor sandy and dirty. Baseboards & walls dirty. Just not clean! And NO vacuum cleaner! No cold water in kitchen sink and at times the toilet would continue to run. Unfortunately, with an OC weekend event another unit was unavailable. We purchased cleaning supplies to clean floor, toilet, etc. This was the 1st experience renting through VRBO. This is our last. Will go through a local real estate/rental company for our next OC visit.
Disappointed with rental compared to picture. Needs overall cleaning. Bed was uncomfortable, air conditioner in bedroom was loud. A chair was needed to turn on the air conditioner in living room. Remote did not work. Sofa was hard to sit in and soiled. Shower leaked. No storm door on front door, just curtain. Paint chipped on railing of outside stairs. Very easy to get splinter when hold on to railing. Sink in bathroom was very small. When using, water splashed on floor. No closet in bedroom, only hall closed which was filled with cleaning tools. Not much room to hang clothing.
Beautiful city and neighborhood. The apartment is a 4-minute walk from the sea. The beach is located completely north of the Boardwalk, which we really appreciated because the space was larger and there were fewer vacationers. The apartment is old and small but the value for money is really excellent. The kitchen is well equipped. Aleays was very clean. We also have access to a laundry room (at a lower cost) which was very practical when we found our beach towels too dirty. We would come back without any hesitation.
We had a very nice time staying here for my birthday. The parking can be an issue especially on weekends. We knew it was street parking only but there was literally no parking. The neighbors downstairs were kind enough to let us park in the driveway for a couple hours. We were able to find a spot eventually but it was on a different street. We walked everywhere so once we found a spot everything was good. The location is great
I have nothing but wonderful things to say about 821 St. James. It was clean, close to the beach, awesome neighborhood and a great value Perfect in every way.
I, Christina, have been going to Ocean City for vacations for over 20 years now. I introduced my husband Louis to my favorite spot in all of New Jersey and told him all about my childhood dream to have a little Ocean City getaway some day. He was very enthusiastic about fulfilling that dream for me, and now we're sharing it with you!
We wanted a small place at the beach that felt like home. Most 1 bedroom properties felt like a motel. This cozy condo felt like 'ours' as soon as we saw it.
