Monika's apartment in Arverne-by-the-Sea was immaculately clean and stylishly decorated. We felt immediately at home. It was a short six-minute walk to the beach (surfing beach in one direction and swimming beach in another). It was also a short walk to the Stop & Shop grocery store, which was a pleasant surprise. We didn't have to get in our car the entire week of our stay! Monika was quick to respond anytime we reached out to her with a question, and she was generously accommodating to our needs. Just FYI, we traveled with our two young daughters, one of whom had signed up for the New York Surf School surfing camp. All in all, a great experience all around. Thank you!
