The house was in a great location on Ocean Isle! The view of the beach from the upstairs kitchen/ living area and the front decks of the ocean was beautiful. I loved how much light and view you could see inside with all the windows. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch drinking our coffee in the morning. We were one street back from the beach but it felt like we were right on it with the views and not really any houses in front of us. We liked how close we were to beach entrances as well. The house was clean- but some things on property were just scattered around when we arrived, like old shoes, beach items, and the back area where the pool was -it just felt a little unkept, but Iâm sure it was from the previous guests. Itâs also a little older of a home and in areas feels somewhat worn. On the whole we enjoyed our time with family and appreciated the house and space.
Location was excellent, little town is also really great for shops, restaurants, bars, park for kids etc. Very convenient. The beach house itself was a huge disappointment. It was very dirty and run down. We had to wash all the cutlery, cups and plates before we could use them. The dishwasher wouldnât drain, was in-operable. One of the bathtubâs would not drain. Backyard with pool was weed infested. Pool chairs were rusty and old, we did not want to sit on them. Cockroaches found in car port and dead one in kitchen. Ice maker did not work in one fridge. Carpet was sticky, floor was dirty. For the price, I would give the property a 3/10 and would not recommend!!! Location and view was amazing though. Family had a good time, just very disappointed.
Owner is extremely nice and very responsive to any concerns. The house is worn. The out door furniture needs to be updated or replaced. The elevator needed to be reset several times and not for user error. Some of the call buttons did not work. The view is gorgeous. We just wished that the house was as in good as shape as the photos.
There was plenty of room, beach view, but house itself Needs maintained unsafe railings, broken widow lots of painting inside and out for the price expected better
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful beach home! The house is spacious, clean, and perfectly set up for a relaxing getaway. The location is absolutely stunning with a truly unobstructed view of the ocean â we spent so much time just soaking it all in. Inside, the home had everything we needed to feel comfortable and cozy, just like being at home. From the fully stocked kitchen to the thoughtful touches throughout, every detail made our stay that much more enjoyable. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to unwind by the sea!
We had a great vacation. The view was amazing. It was so nice to enjoy a cup of coffee in the mornings sitting on the deck looking at the ocean. Actually we spent a lot of time on the deck just relaxing. It was just a short walk to the beach access. The pool was also nice to play in when we werenât on the beach. The elevator was so helpful. We took my 80 yo mom and aunt and it was easy access for them!! Will rent again!!
We stayed here for my parent's 55 anniversary. We had our entire family (4 families). We absolutely loved it here. It was clean and beautiful. Reservations and check in and check out were a breeze. The home decor was beautiful. There were some maintenance items that needed to be attended to, like some broken blinds, broken patio chairs and loose boards on the deck, but nothing substantial. The pool and pool area was the best - it felt like being in your own little oasis. We spent a LOT of time here throughout the week. The view of the ocean/island was spectacular! You have to walk down a few houses to get to the beach access, but it's not far at all. We had some issues with the elevator. It is tricky to operate. But, once you learn how to work it, it does a lot better, but still not 100% of the time (it gets stuck on the 2nd floor sometimes, and won't come when it's called to another floor - but never with people in it). This was bad for us, as our parents are elderly and there are LOTS of steps. But, the owner, James, was very responsive and very easy to work with. There is a spectacular view from the deck on the roof of the house, however, the railings are not very strong, so if you have kids I would be very wary of that. All in all, we loved it here and had an amazing time, and I really loved the home and liked the owner very much.
So many things go into attempting to select the best property to maximize your overall experience when going on vacation, this property checks alll the boxes! As soon as you enter the home relaxation begins. The design, flow and cleanliness are exceptional. But most importantly the views of the ocean are stunning. The front decks offer unobstructed scenery that quickly dissolves any stress you may have inadvertently brought along. The owner is more than accommodating, easily reachable and is very much invested in your experience. We will choose this home as often as we can to escape and rejuvenate!!
Our stay overall was great. Couple areas in the bathrooms needed a little more cleaning but mostly very well maintained. The top sundeck was off limits due to needed repairs and the pool had a leak somewhere per the maintenance, so we had to keep adding water but not really a big deal. They came and checked the pool a couple of times too. We really enjoyed the quiet environment. A great place to enjoy the beach if you like it quiet but plenty of things to do within driving distance as well.
This was a great home and clearly well maintained. There was some wear and tear to the patios as expected near the beach with high winds and salty air but the boards on the front porches look like they have just been replaced. The kitchen was well stocked, bed rooms were nice and we didnât see any bugs inside during our stay. Pool was clean and heated outdoor shower was a plus. Easy and quick access to uncrowded beaches and a wonderful view!!!
The property fit our needs perfectly. The location is excellent, just steps from the beach. The views of the ocean were exceptional. We spent many hours on the deck, talking, laughing, and enjoying the view.
There were a few negatives. The roof deck at the rear of the home is in dire need of repair. None of us used it at all, and it was definitely off limits for the children. The elevator was not working. This was quite disappointing for us as a retired couple, and we were fortunate to have our sons there to help bring our luggage up the stairs. One last concern is that the paved road ends and changes to gravel right in front of the home. People driving by are usually going too fast and hit the gravel at speeds too high which kicks up the gravel and causes loud noise.
Overall, it was a good stay. I would return if the necessary repairs are made.
Beautiful home at a beautiful location! The home was a perfect fit for our family. We enjoyed the beach in the morning came back and enjoyed the pool and then could enjoy the beach again from the big comfortable porches. We rocked our two year old to sleep almost every night on the porch listening and watching the surf!
House was very clean and great view. Nice front decks but the back decks needed replacing. Wrought iron railing is not safe. Some rotten boards in decking and the âcrows nestâ needs to be taken down. It is an accident waiting to happen. The pool was nice, however there was a leak somewhere so had to add water each day. Dining room table, chairs and bar stools needed to be replaced also.
But we enjoyed our stay with family but would not book again.
The location for this OIB property was great. Only a couple issues when we arrived. The pool had not been cleaned so it was a huge first impression misstep. All surrounding pools were a pretty blue and ours was an unsighlty green. It was however quickly addressed the next day. Second, we had one mattress with farily bad staining, a mattress topper would have solved this, again first impressions. A new set of bedding throughout would have been perfect. A couple other items with old furniture and general cleanliness but we've come accustom to these things renting for the last 20 years. Functionally, a great house! Tons of room and tons of sleeping flexibility. It was pretty windy and cool during our stay so we spent more time in the house than normal but we were comfortable with a gourp of 11. Another couch in the living room would have made it perfect. Unfortunately the road out front is gravel so you get a ton of noise but the view compensates for this. You have an unobstructed 120 degree view of the ocean, beautiful! The elevator was great for transporting luggage and our "older" guests! A few updates and this is the perfect OIB house!!
Prompt and informative communication with owner. Very spacious and clean house, love having 2 full size fridges and microwaves! Very well stocked kitchen, good towels and bed linens. Nice balcony area and pool. Very close to beach access but nice to be further down the street where the beach isn't quite as crowded. Comfy couch in main room, very nice washer and dryer, all appliances worked great. Only complaint was kitchen chairs need new padding. We would highly recommend this place and would stay here again.
This property was great. Just one row off the beach but a real short walk to access. Beautiful views of the ocean with no homes in the way. Property manager was great and accommodating with the little changes we needed.
The good:
Nice view. Great location. Plenty of rooms. Initially the owner was responsive- particularly when we got there and the internet password was not correct. She helped us get the correct one.
The bad:
- We called to have the pool heated the week before our trip and was told the heating wasnât working. When we got there, we found out the pool pump wasnât even working. So not only were we unable to heat the pool, we werenât even able to use it at all. The owner agreed she should take it off the rental listing, but when we asked the owner for a reimbursement (twice), she did not respond. We would not have rented the house had we known the pool was not available.
-The mattress covers were stained and dirty (one especially). It came clean when I washed it.
-There were railings broken on the porches- not safe with kids.
-Our bathroom hand towels and wash cloths were dingy and mismatched.
-Kitchen hand towel was mildewed.
-One sofa was very stained and needed cleaning or replacing.
-House needed many repairs.
-Living room and kitchen are not as spacious as the rental listing photos appear.
We have never given a home a poor review. The only reason we are giving this review is to save others from the same issues. I understand that it is hard and expensive to keep up a property. The house was just not up to the standards weâve seen in all our other rentals.
Accommodations were excellent. Manager very responsive and Communication was quick. All beds were comfortable! Wonderful location to beach. Kitchen well appointed but could use more measuring cups/spoons and unbreakable dishes for little ones. Kitchen sink lacking in hot water when hand washing dishes but could have been me not using the spigot correctly because otherwise no issues in baths etc. Overall LOVED our family vacation and would return!
My family and my friend and her family spent a week at this house in Ocean Isle. It has easy access to the beach (takes less than 5 minutes to walk, put your things down and be in the ocean!). The house is well maintained with plenty of room for every one to relax.
