The property boasts PRIVATE GAZEBO ACCESS to a beautiful, SECLUDED BEACH for the enjoyment of peaceful strolls, shelling, sunbathing, and sunset walks. There is also a coastal bike path for jogging, bike riding, or walking experiences. Originally the building was known as Captain's Bridge Motel built in the 1970s. Stay Vintage my friends!

Perfect for our needs.

We wanted a convenient, comfortable place to stay for an extended weekend at Atlantic Beach without breaking the bank. This unit fit our needs perfectly. We wanted to be close to the beach and the location is ideal. We hope to return again.

First stay in Atlantic Beach

We were very pleased with the location and beach access. Well appointed kitchenette. Could use a couple of suitcase stands. But would certainly rent again.

Perfect for Two

It's as advertised, there's not an abundance of space but it's fine for two people. I wouldn't want to have three adults in the room. This is a room in an older hotel that has been turned into a "condo." The small kitchen was added probably where a closet had been. Very glad there was a full size refrigerator, and it was great to have two beach chairs provided. The only lavatory is the kitchen "sink" and it was odd to brush teeth where coffee cups had just been washed. I would have liked a few hooks in the bathroom to hang clothing while showering. Would return.

Amazing location

You could stay at this condo and never wear shoes for a week. The proximity to the beach is perfect. It is a cozy space and beautifully decorated. The mattresses weren’t quite as comfortable as I’d hoped, but everything else was terrific. The owner is responsive and helpful, as we decided to extend our stay on the last day. I’ll definitely be back!!
