    Shower

    We have been going to Ocean City for over 20 years and have had mostly good experiences. This year we rented 5838 Central Ave 2nd floor owned by Sabbioso LLC and the place was filthy. It was obvious that the place was not cleaned prior to our arrival. 1.Hair and Sand in MBR bathroom 2.Outdoor shower unusable filled with sand a old dirty sponge and sandy soap on the floor with a lock on the door that was inoperable. 3.Dirty underwear under bed 4.Mosquito infested with ant traps all around. 5.Kitchen pots dirty with food left in them 6.Kitchen sink and garbage disposal leaking 7.Dirty cups in cabinet 8.Cobwebs and spiders in bunk beds along with screws to hold it together missing. 9.Floors dirty with sand and dirt still on them. 10.Oven Filthy never been cleaned 11. Furniture dirty and stained. 12. Tub in hallway bathroom clogged. 13.Light bulbs burned out and missing in multiple rooms You would think that Berger Reality would take some responsibility to oversee that the places they rent are clean since they receive a commission on the rentals. They just want to pass it off on the owner and wash their hands of it. The owner stated they had paid for deep cleaning as the previous renter had stayed there for 6 weeks. Obviously no one followed up to make sure it was clean. Neither the owner nor Berger. In calling Berger (Kevin Laskowski) he said he was sorry about the situation and offered to send someone out to clean but a number of the listed problems were not discovered immediately and with the family bringing everything in it would have been problematic to have cleaners working around everyone and their belongings. They did send someone to fix the leak which of course was to the benefit of the owner. I asked for a credit considering we had to clean everything and were inconvenienced in many ways. Berger initially said they could do nothing and that it was up to the owner. The sorry about that does not make up for the inconvenience we all experienced and left to deal with. We have not heard from the owner regarding any compensation. I would suggest not renting this property until they clean up their act. Some pictures of the place.

    Tractors, saws and construction workers with sailor mouths... great harmony for the family to wake up to

    Barbara Varacalli was a horrible agent who misrepresented our rental and when we called her on it she told us to "Call City Hall." Here were our issues... First, there was loud construction going on next door starting at 8:00 am ever day of our vacation. Does anyone think it's fair to wake up early every day to loud machinery and a cursing crew? You should have told us about this in advance and given us the option to choose another rental. Second, your online photos of 2731 Wesley Ave, Ocean City, NJ 08226 were taken in 1995 and it doesn't look the same today. Great views, but a tired old rental. As an example, all the pictures on the walls are faded, fans are dirty and dilapidated, there was little to no landscaping, lights would mysteriously go on or off, the pots on the balcony sported dead pulled weeds and the place was sterile with no personality... could go on but am sure you have the idea. Everything in this place is tired! Third, this unit was dirty and smelled. We spent half of the first day cleaning and the attached picture of the air conditioning intake shows why the place had such a horrible old musty odor. As much as we tried to spray Fabreze and open the windows, we all could smell the odor when we'd return from the beach. Barbara, you should really be ashamed of how you treat people because it's not right or fair. Karma will eventually catch you... maybe it's time to retire before it does!

    Looks good but think again! Bug infested!

    See all

    Our family reunion vacation week for our mother's 80th Birthday at Tom and Mary Ann's house was…read morenothing short of fantastic! The weather was great..even with the complimentary downpour day to let the skin come off sizzle mode..just perfect. We were a large family group... family coming in from NY, NM, Ca and Germany. We pushed the limits in space but with the backyard patio area, rooftop hot tub soaking deck (special accolades to that), the ocean so close and so many places you could walk, bike, paddle to we never at all came to in your face situations... which we all know with family is usually inevitable. We wanted to do something special for our Mom (Omi) for her birthday so we took Mary Ann and Tom's referral and hired the caterer that they suggested... we did a luau theme and they came to the house with the pig roast complete with Hawaiian veges and salads. I for one was amazed that we actually surprised her but I do believe we really pulled it off. We were initially hesitant to rent because of landowners sharing the same house..but we started our search late and there weren't many options to accommodate our large group so we took the chance. Couldn't have been any farther from the fears we had to reality. Always friendly and helpful.. never intrusive or controlling. By the time we left it felt like we were leaving old friends.... the hot donuts Mary Ann brought us from an old time LBI donut shop, the morning before we left sealed the deal! Our family grew up summers in LBI..staying with friends that owned and/or our family renting for weeks at a time. I think I can speak for our family in saying we came home that week. A wonderful magical place in our memories. Lucky me got to share it with my granddaughter while my Mom (Omi) is still with us and oh so big a center of our family. 4 generations of LBI addicts.... what better place to enjoy family!

    This stay is always exactly what I needed. Well organized, clean, everything is labeled for ease of…read moreuse and locating what I'm looking for, great living space to enjoy with friends and family, and the shortest walk to an incredible beach. Thanks for the great stay!
