Tourist Information
The following information is provided for our summer vacationers
in Sea Isle City. The details we provide generally pertain to the rental
of apartments, condos and homes. For information on hotels, motels,
or B&B's, click on accommodations.
Rate Information
Rates are determined by three criteria: (1) Distance from the beach or
Bay, (2) time selected - July & August peak season or June & September
off season, (3) size, type and quality of the rental unit. Many of our rental
units are now assigned a rating to assist you in the selection process.
Deposits, Leases, etc.
Typically, summer rentals are for a period of one week or longer.
A written lease is required and a one-third deposit is given when
the tenant signs the lease. In addition, most property owners require
a security deposit of $200-300 and most agents charge a lease processing
fee of $20-25. In the event you must cancel your rental, your deposit
is held until the unit has been re-rented and is typically subject to a
cancellation fee of 10% after 72 hours. Credit cards are not accepted.
What's Included
Rental units are usually complete with the exception of linens and
towels. A daily maid service and/or departure cleaning is not included
in the rental, but is available as an option for a reasonable charge.
Properties are expected to be left reasonably clean at the end of your
stay, with reasonable wear and tear excepted. Pets are usually not
allowed. Check our "Pet Friendly" rental section for units that allow
pets with a minor additional charge.
Beach Tags
Beach tags are required for all persons over the age of 12 and are not
normally included in your rental. The cost of beach tags is $20 for a
seasonal tag, $10 for a weekly tag, and $5 for a daily tag. Beach tags
are not required on Wednesdays. Tags can be purchased on the beach
from an inspector or at the beach tag office at 125 JFK Blvd.
Parking and Transportation
Parking is at a premium. The City has two public parking lots located
at 48th St and Park Road and on 42nd Street at the Bay. Access to downtown
is now available by a public trolley system that operates from June until
Labor Day from 2:00pm until 10:00pm with a late nite trolley on weekends
from 10:00pm until 3:00am. Complimentary fares are available from many
downtown businesses and the trolley routes cover most of the island and
the public parking lots.
Miscellaneous
Appliance and air conditioning breakdowns sometimes occur. Under
normal conditions, repairs are made within 24 hours. Refunds are not
given for breakdowns. It is important to specify the exact number of
persons you need to accommodate when making your reservation. The
maximum number of persons is listed on your lease and filed with the
City. Do not rent a property if you expect to exceed the allowed number
of occupants. Check-in time is 2:00pm on Saturday and check-out time
is 11:00am. Be sure to return the keys to the agent's office so that you
are not charged for a new set. The unit should be clean when you take
occupancy. If it is not, advise the agent immediately. Please clean up the
unit prior to departure.
