"Very nice place!
Perfect place with great ocean and beach views. Convenient location. Very pleased with the cleanliness of the place. My only complaint was the elevator was out of order when we got there on Saturday so we had to lug all our stuff up the steps. It was fixed on Monday. Unpacking when we got there and taking them down when we were leaving would have been the only time we used the elevator. Checking in and out was a breeze. "

"Great View
The condo is located in a great area and has amazing views of the ocean. Also, it is only a short walk to the beach. The surroundings are very quite and we had a great stay. The only con is that the Condo needs some work. There is a note on the refrigerator "make sure Door is closed". The refrigerator doesn't close properly and it does not cool items in the refrigerator. It needs to be replaced. For the amount of money we spent the appliances should work. Also, the latch on the screen door is broken and needs to ne replaced. Overall, the condo is nice but needs some upkeep and maintenance. "

"Great location, not so clean
Working with was a very good experience. This specific condo had some major cleaning issues. The bathtubs/showers were disgusting. We had to remove one of the shower curtains because it was covered in black mold stains, the drains were filled with hair so the water backed up to to tops of our feet ( had to clean it out then worked fine ) and the floor of the tub was stained reddish brown from not being maintained. There was a musty smell in the condo and upon looking for the reason found that the AC vents in the living and dining areas had black mold growing inside. For that reason we contacted and they had someone come out to take care of the issue. From there on it was okay. The furniture in the living room was not very comfortable, needs to be replaced. The sliding glass door in the living room going out to the balcony was cloudy so you couldn't enjoy the view as much ( needs to be replaced ) The beds were comfortable. It was a great location on a quiet beach and definitely will return, but to a different condo. If I was the owner, I would be embarrassed to rent it in the current condition. Location would be 5 starts, cleanliness 1 star. service 5 stars."

Pros: Great location, amazing access to beach, beautiful pools and quiet neighbors
Cons: Dated unit, small Queen in master, temp in master runs hot in summer, bulbs burned out in fan, no overhead fans or lighting in bedrooms, bathroom fan didn’t work. Food and garbage left from previous tenant."

"Over-priced vacation rental
The condo was great for the two of us and situated in a great location. It met our needs for a quiet and peaceful vacation. However, the quoted price per night became more than double amounting to over $400/night. Therefore this is the first and last time we will use . We will definitely recommend the property but not . "

This trip was on my bucket list for years. The property was amazing and a great location for enjoying the beach and sunset views."

"Have had much better past properties
The place was dirty: floor, furniture, bath rugs, floor boards. Also microwave was rusted and unusable. The toaster oven only worked on broil. The AC filter was filthy. We couldn't open the sliding glass doors. Rental office responded on filter and glass doors but awaiting decision about housekeeping reimbursement. "

"Stay at C-23 Breakers
The condo was beautiful and the views breathtaking. Had a little glitch when we first got there, as the floors of the condo do not make sense and we went to the wrong floor. Called realtor and emergency person got back to me in less than 30 minutes. Only minor glitches were the patio door in the living room stuck and did not open or close properly and the ice machine on the fridge did not work. The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated. Had a very nice stay. "

"A beautiful oceanside vacation
C-23 Breakers is a perfect vacation home for a small family. The location is great, we had a quiet private beach experience. amazing ocean view from living room and the main bedroom. we spotted swimming dolphins from our balcony everyday. House is super clean and tastefully decorated. Vickie from Cannon and Gruber management has been very nice and helpful in getting to us about any thing we needed. Overall we had a great stay. "

"Nice condo on the beach!
The apartment is on the 2nd floor with great views of the beach and has reasonable amenities. The kitchen is fully equipped and has new appliances. Overall the unit is well maintained inside. The balcony needs some renovation/maintenance though (e.g. rust, torn screens, rusty chairs, hard to open sliding doors, etc.). The condo complex is located next to a 10-story hotel, so the beach may get too crowded during the summer season. The response time from the property managers was slow. The check-in and check-out times were not convenient/flexible, we would have preferred 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out. No soap, shampoo, detergents, or paper products are provided, so you have to bring our own, that was surprising given the daily rate. Pillows were not comfortable, luckily we had brought our own. Despite charging cleaning and service fees, the tenants are expected to put away all dishes, collect all the linen, pillow cases, and towels, empty out all the trash bins, and empty out the ice bin i.e. too much work given the fees charged and the early check-out time of 10:00 AM. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and the apartment was nice and comfortable."

"Nice getaway at the beach
The unit was ocean front and provided easy access to the beach. The interior of the Unit was Awesome. It was nicely decorated, kitchen was well stocked and provided essentials needed to cook a nice meal. The View from this ocean front condo Could have been perfect as far as potential ocean front views; however; the outside of the condo was in DESPERATE need of attention. The screen on the beach front porch was ripped and torn and terribly dirty which totally ruined the nice view. Luckily there was also an open small deck as well where the view was better, although the screened door for access was in bad repair. A suggestion to have a couple high sitting viewing chairs to see over the rail would be nice...there was also siding missing from the wall of outside the unit itself. Overall Our visit was nice but we would not consider a revisit until the outside issues were repaired on these units."

"Weekend Beach Trip
Originally when we were looking for a place the rental fee said around $200 per night. But as we were preparing to finalize the agreement there were many more fees added on. Over another $200 for the actual owner and several other fees and taxes. I find this very misleading and have never had another situation like this with which we have rented from numerous times all over the country."

"Nice OF unit. Great view. Exterior in need of major work.
The unit is OF, which is great, but could use some upgrades. Balcony screens are torn and old/rusty. Exterior of this and all units need paint badly. Hardiplank on balcony is damaged. Bathtubs are a bit creaky and showing their age. Good overall iside. "

Too many equipment failures, toaster, blender, doors, elevators. Condo was moldy."

"Very Clean and Great Location
The condo was very clean and well furnished. The patios were a great place to enjoy the beautiful ocean view. Having the elevator was a very helpful feature. I would highly recommend this condo. It was central to both ends of the island. It was extremely close to the aquarium. "

"Nice vacation experience but some blemishes
Booking through was seamless but I was perturbed by the fee structure. The unit was advertised at $185/night, but with added fees for things like linens (!), cleaning, "reservation fee" (in addition to 's fee), and "damage insurance", the REAL cost was more like $260/night! I think this is deceptive advertising, and suggest that "Linens" be included in the rental cost for stays of 3 nights or longer. I almost cancelled the reservation but didn't have time to find another booking.
The unit itself was very pleasant, with great views of the ocean, but when we checked in there were dirty linens on the laundry room floor in front of the dryer. So much for that pricey linen fee service! We just threw them in the wash, folded them, and left them on the shelf.
Otherwise, a nice experience. The property managers at Gruber were very pleasant and helpful folks, their fees notwithstanding."

"Winter beach trip
We loved the location! It was as close to the ocean as we've stayed. The porches need some attention though. Kitchen was well stocked. "

"Nice Location
We enjoyed the location of the condo. It was private but yet close to restaurants and shopping. The condo was nicely decorated and the kitchen was stocked for cooking. The master bed needs a new mattress. At some point it will need to not rented some repairs from the hurricane can be made."

"SELFISH GUEST
I don't want to write a review as my comments will make BREAKERS C-23 too attractive to others and it will be more difficult to find open dates to reserve it."

We had a great time. Huge place with two decks (one screened, one open). Great kitchen, comfortable beds, and right on the beach. We would love to return! Very clean. The property management company was great to work with, as well. "

"Back to the Beach
We used to come to The Breakers every summer when the kids were little and had such great times with family and friends. It had been 20 years since we'd last stayed here and I was pleasantly surprised that the location was still beautiful and well maintained. Canon & Gruber provided great service and were prompt in responding to anything we needed, esplecially when we temporarily lost a key. We found our unit, C-23, to be beautifully decorated and thoughtfully furnished. It had been remodeled recently and we found it to be even prettier than the online photographs. We especially enjoyed eating our meals on the screened porch with a gorgeous oceanfront view. It was great to be here again after all the years away and we hope to be back next year to continue more wonderful memories of the beach.
One suggestion for improvement: The mattresses were way too soft for us and we didn't sleep well. This was compounded by mattress pads that were very "plastic" and "crinkly". Any movement created a lot of noise, frequently keeping us awake. I feel that this is an issue that can easily be remedied should the owner so decide. "

"Beacons Reach Vacation
We have mixed reviews about our rental. AC was not cooling. Tech that responded admitted unit was to to be replaced but waiting for it to quit? Realtor had it fixed next day thankfully. Mattress in master bedroom needs replacing, wife slept on bed and i on couch. Pull out couch needs replacing also. We left 2days early due to mattress. Overall this has the potential to be a great place to stay if owner and realtors would be proactive on maintenance and furnishings rather than reactive. May stay at Beacons Reach again but do better research on property condition!"

"Better than Pictures
We had a wonderful time. Check in was very easy. The staff was very informative and helpful. The condo was better than the pictures. The only suggestion I would make is to replace the mattress in the master bedroom. It is starting to show its age. "

"Finally a condo worth renting!!
I have stayed a variety of condos in Atlantic Beach over the last 20 years. FINALLY, we found one worthy of renting for a week. It was better than the photos. It was very clean, the design was fresh. A few suggestions - the sheets (provided by an outside company) were scratchy and uncomfortable. It is nice that they were included and the beds were made. There were plenty of towels for the week. The unit has a musty odor. I believe it is more the building’s problem and location but maybe if there was a humidifier or something it could reduce the odor."

"Embarrassing 41rst Anniversary Getaway.
I surprised my wife with this trip. She was initially impressed with the condo. The AC went out the first night and was out until late afternoon the following day, while the service person repaired it. The rooms were clean and the amenities were satisfactory. We discovered dried blood on the bottom of the comforter the next day and then on the top sheet. We were informed by the Realtor that the linen charge would be reversed. I really thought there should have been some remuneration on the condo price for the broken AC, but it was not offered at check out. I realize things happen out of our control, but it was a real damper on our anniversary getaway."

"Perfect Vacation
In a word WONDERFUL!! Breakers C-23 is perfect in every way. Ocean front, very clean and up to date. Elevator is great because we have folks in our family who can't do steps. I can't say enough about Kimberly @ . She's just the best. Most helpful in every way."

"Perfect
We stayed here with our teenage daughter. It was spotless, directly on the beach, and had laminate hardwood-look floors in the main rooms and baths. The carpet in the bedrooms was spotless. We plan to stay here again. It rained and was cold during our stay, but we visited the aquarium which was very close by. We also hung out in nearby Beaufort, which was quaint and fun. We recommend the ghost tour there. We were totally pleased with everything. There is even an elevator to get to your room. We stayed on the second floor. It had a very private screened porch and also an open porch, one off the main room and one off the master bedroom. The beach is very private, with lots of shells."

"Great month at the Beach
We have been to this location two times and would not care to go any where else. The location is wonderful. The views of the ocean could not be better. The owners keep their property clean and neat. It is well furnished. We enjoyed the staff at cannon and gruber."

"Breakers C23 Experience
We have stayed in the Beacons Reach condos frequently for over 25 years and in this unit several times. We love the location and beach privacy. This particular unit is getting "long in the tooth" inside and the exterior maintenance (doors for example) need to be replaced. Some minor convenience items were not available (measuring cups for example). On line photos are dated. We will ask more detailed questions about the rental units next time. Trust you will have that information. Parking limitations when you can get 3 cars in the space is annoying. C&G Staff were very attentive to our needs. We will continue of use C&G in the future. -- Would not use Willis for seafood. Like Amos Mosquitoes and Island Cafe (?). Crab Shack fried food oily, but other offerings good. "

"Great Location - Mildew Smell is a Distractor
The updates to the C-23 unit are obviously nice: new floors, counter tops, large appliances. Thoughtful decor.
The overwhelming mildew odor from the master bedroom dresser was simply horrible. Would not put my clothes in there and lived out of suitcase for a week. Felt like summer camp. For the $$ rent, new pillows are needed - these were like sleeping on folded up tissue paper. For the $$ rent, the coffee maker, while sufficient, is undersized and really seems like something from thrift store. Don't mean to be ugly, but without feedback, others will likely find the same conditions and reach same conclusions. Mildew is the biggest thing."

"Lovely Home
My husband and I enjoyed a lovely time at this condo. Both the living area and master have perfect beach views. The room colors and furnishings are cheerful and welcoming. The only detraction was the loud whine/grind from an air conditioner that needs servicing a few doors away. Made sitting on the balcony less pleasurable than it would have been. otherwise. "
Feb 18, 2016 - , Cedar Grove, NC
"Great View
Very quiet relaxing place to spend a few days. Excellent view of the ocean. The rooms for the most part were clean and comfortable. Some new paint and update the living furniture would be a big plus. Nice kitchen and appliances. Washer and dryer is a plus, no laundry to do when you return home. Check in was fast and the staff was very friendly. We were pleased with our stay and would stay again just wish they were more places to eat nearby. "

"not a good vacation
when we tried to get into the condo it took a while the door locks did not open it was a struggle.even when a man came to fix something in the condo he said it was hard to get in also as I watched him struggle with the keys in the locks it got to a point the dead bolt was falling out and I couldn't use it. the the bathroom floor was dirty I mean dirty. the same bathromm when taking a shower the tub was filling up with water the drain was slow the toilet was the same not flushing. the condo was outdated
the sliding doors were so difficult to open and close
the screened porch was a mess 2 screens pushed out there was napkins and spoons in the corner the furniture was dirty. but the kicker was the white plastic furniture. it was so dirty you could not sit on it at all. I would love to see one of you go to the condo and sit in the white chair!!! when we called they sent people over to fix things but this is not what I want to see and interrupt my days 4 times what should have been taken care of before I rented it
I own several properties myself and I would never rent anything that looked like this. I do understand you are at the beach and things happen but this should have all been taken care of before we stepped into the condo. we go to the beach 2 times a year for over 38 years and I never seen anything like this. I shouldn't have people working on the place as im there this should have been done before I rented doesn't anyone walk thru to see if it is ok or not in sure the napkins and spoons are still on the screened porch
what a disgrace.
as we looked thru the book from peoples comments and they said the tv in the main bedroom was old and the volume doesn't turn down I would thing the 1970's tv would be replaced,
this just ruined my time at the beach and would never rent anything from you again"

"Perfect!!
This condo was was absolutely perfect!! The unit is tastefully decorated with a light and fun beach theme. The kitchen is very well stocked, with both cooking utensils and dishes.
The view from the balcony is amazing. All linens are provided, and they give you enough, including kitchen towels.
The area is centrally located and is just minutes from restaurants, things to do and shops.
We could not be more pleased with everything we found here!!
