Great location half a block from the boardwalk, over a liquor store. Very basic, minimally furnished. The apartment is on the second floor but there are people above, and you can hear footsteps overhead. Mostly our stay was pleasant. One night there were people yelling in the parking lot for several hours until about 2 AM, but that is what you get so close to the boardwalk and bars. Very slow customer service. Asked about extra blankets and got a response four days later, after we had checked out.
Un-necessary closure of the swimming pool(s) ruined the fun for our family kids (and adults)
The reason given for the pool closure was B.S. (use your imagination for what "B.S." stands for).
My daughter & her children live in a very fine Apartment Complex near Durham (N.C.). The complex has an incredibly fine Olympic-size swimming-pool; 2 large ' curving slides' ; multiple dressing rooms' showers and an up-scale 'snack-bar for sandwiches & beverages. The Complex Management allowed complete swimming rights for all residents; with each family signing-up for two hours each--all day--with an hour in-between each 2 hour swim to 'sanitize and clean the bathrooms / tables / chairs & slides...with No Expense to the myriad of families using the pool, PERIOD !!!,,,,and there you sit down on your ass declaring "your two small swimming pools are "closed" ...just AFTER we "checked-In"....NEWS-FLASH!!!...You could have had each of the two swimming pools; chairs & tables; and ladies / men's rooms sanitized on a 'scheduled basis' during the day for a very small amount of money...
Obviously, you are 'penny-wise' and 'pound-foolish' ; and 'minor-league' management...PS: Yes...I'm the individual that has come to Point-Emerald Villas every summer since 1989... Hopefully, You'll "get your act together" before I return in September...

This place is great. It is just off the boardwalk and walking distance to several food places and shops. It had a washing and dryer which is great with kids. It is quiet location too and didnât hear the neighbors. Also had guaranteed parking which is great as well.
The inside looked exactly as it was in the pictures. Clean and very bright. All new appliances
The building itself is old. Itâs not central heating and cooling . When some appliances are used at the same time, electrical power keeps tripping. The portable ac in the living room was âclogged â with water backing up as per maintenance and we woke up one morning with puddles of water all over the floor. Vantage will not guarantee housekeeping arrival and instead offered midweek cleaning to be paid by us as extra. We had to use our towels to avoid slipping. The dishwasher smelled when we first arrived and found pool of dirty water in the bottom. It was also clogged and fixed right away. Other than that, the unit was perfect. Location was perfect . Very accessible and close to the beach.
