This pet friendly property was great for our family. We loved the location being that it was within walking distance to the pier and beach and a short driving distance to restaurants. We loved the backyard overlooking the marsh. The only suggestion I would offer would be to replace the key lock with a keypad/code entry. This would allow guests to drive directly to the property. We also had a hard time figuring out how to get the key to unlock the door which was probably due to salt air, over time. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

We absolutely loved our stay! The house is comfortable, welcoming, and well stocked. The location was great with amazing views from all of the rooms. We enjoyed fishing and kayaking right off the back of the property. The house was just a short walk to a beautiful section of the beach. Being able to bring our dog was an added bonus.

Pros: Dog Friendly including bowls. The house was spacious and roomy and the location was excellent. It was an easy 8 or so minute walk to a beach access and easily less than a 3 minute walk to the scenic walk over. The view from the back deck overlooking the marsh was nice, and we especially enjoyed spending time on the covered front porch.The outdoor shower was roomy, and the space underneath the house was nice, especially the swing.The house isn't new, but is in good shape, we didn't notice any major issues. Cons: The house in general could use a good deep cleaning, but I am sure that's hard during peak season. Also, whoever was in charge of cleaning before our arrival seemed to have been rushed. There was a pile of fluffy dog hair piled behind one of the bedroom doors, tiny black dog hairs on the mattess covers, and dog hair in the carpet. Again, in a pet friendly rental, I am sure that's hard to avoid. One other issue was either there were several light bulbs out, not working, or we just never figured out the right switches. A suggestion to lable the light switches would be helpful for future renters.Overall we enjoyed our stay at Aloha, our "cons" are just minor inconveniences. John was easy to work with and quick to reply to questions. I would definitely rent again and recommend to others. And easy 4/5

Quick Get Away

Excellent location. All required amenities were available in the house and the decks were great for watching the sunrise. Was a little surprised there was no paper towels, trash bags, or even an extra roll of TP available so make sure you bring your own. Overall a great place to stay!

Barbara, Thank you for your review. Yes, unfortunately guests need to bring essentials including toilet paper and paper towels. We periodically stock the unit, but we don't have a weekly service to replenish these items. There should be hand-soap and dishwasher liquid, but we suggest guests bring a dish towel, a dish cloth, a dishwasher pod, a clothes washer pod, tp, paper towels, shampoo, conditioner, bath soap, and a few trash bags.

Perfect place to stay on Oak Island!

Overlooking the intercoastal waterway, only 2 blocks from the beach! The neighborhood was quiet and dog friendly. Coffee table big enough for our puzzles. Porches to watch sunrises and sunsets. Who could ask for anything more?
