Maybe you could go ahead & arrive on Friday as originally planned and just stay one night at a motel near the beach. There's a Comfort Suites on Beckrich Rd. just north of the Edgewater Shoppes or the Holiday Inn Sunspree that's on the beach. If you have a AAA card, you might get a reasonable rate. That way, you're already there & can hang out on the beach or at Schooners or Pier Park until your condo is ready.
