We%26#39;ve been to OC several times and have stayed in a lovely hotel (King Charles). Our children are getting older and would like to bring friends or at least have more room. Any suggesitons for a condo or suite on or near the boardwalk?
Recommended condo's or suites on or near boardwalkWe are planning our first trip to OC. Would you recommend staying on the Boardwalk or farther away?
Recommended condo's or suites on or near boardwalkBefore we might offer some advice you will have to provide some more information.
When do you plan to visit? Month??? Weekday or weekend???
How many in your group or family?
What ages?
What amount do you plan to pay per night for a room? Ballpark..
What activities do you enjoy???? Boardwalk? Beach? Noise? Quiet? Food? Entertainment? Nightlife?Tourist attractions?
Ocean City is a rather large area from which to decide where you want to stay the area runs from the inlet to 144th street (7-8 miles) with places to stay throughout the area. The Boardwalk runs from the inlet the southern most end to 26th street the southern end being the most active with the most noise. Also in some cases with the highest prices.
In general to stay on the Boardwalk will cost you more money. But that is something you have to weigh in your planning your trip.
Almost any area is a short trip to and from the Boardwalk depending on the time of your trip to OC.
Please provide us with a little more information and I am sure some might give you some advice.
We are coming at the end of August. There will be 8 in our party- 4 adults and 4 children. We will be driving a BIG van. We would like to stay where we can enjoy the beach and we want to visit the Boardwalk. I am concerned about parking if we don%26#39;t stay right in that area. Would it be a lot of trouble to stay in a condo and then drive to the Boardwalk area for the fun to be had there?
How far north does the boardwalk go? Are there any nice hotels just above the end?
The Boardwalk runs from the inlet ( The southern most end of OC) up along the oceanfront till 26th street.
You have several motels and hotels located at the northern end all depends on what you are looking for as far as accomodations.
You have the Dunes Manor on 28th probably the nicest place to stay in that area but the most costly.
You also have the Dunes Motel owned by the same group.
You have the Rodeway but it is reccomended you stay at the oceanfront building versus the building located off the beach.
There is a tram that runs the length of the Boardwalk and for a few dollars each way you could ride down to the southern end of the Boardwalk whcih is much busier then the northern end.
Another place you might look into is the Grand Hotel also located oceanfront towards the northern end of the Boardwalk.
When are you planning to travel?
How many in your group?

First trip to OC???
Have a safe and enjoyable trip.
I was going to post with basically the same question.
This will be the first time I am visiting OC. I will be travelling with my daughter and her friend (age 13), and my son and his friend (age 15).
I am also looking to stay in a condo with a least 2 bedrooms.
There are so many rental agencies, and condos available that I%26#39;m a little overwhelmed and need some direction.
Sorry, forgot one important detail--I plan on travelling in mid-July--high season.

This site lists many of the relators handling rentals in OC.
Coldwell Banker is one of the biggest if not the biggest and most well know.
You can search online for locations and prices on their site and others.
The southern portion of the area is most busy in the time you are planning to travel.
Down near the inlet at the southern end of the Boardwalk it will be busy all day and into the night with crowds and noise.
If you stay in midtown area it will quiet down a little but you will have to make a short trip to get down to the Boardwalk.
You could walk, take the tram whcih runs up and down the Boardwalk or visit the beach near where you are staying.
I would suggest you run a search through one or more of the listed sites for the time you wish to travel and check out the prices and availibility and then perhaps come back her and ask about location and accomodations perehaps someone has stayed where you are looking.
Good luck. In fact no matter where you stay the area is small enough to get around and perhaps you can plan where to stay on trip #2 by deciding what areas interest you and what attactions you would like to be near in the future.
This site might provide you with some information and ideas for your visit.
