The condo was beautifully situated on the beach. Great views from the living room and deck. A few minor issues that we brought to their attention early on weren't resolved. Master bathroom shower door did not shut properly; stain on couch, stain on curtain, and buckling floor in the living room--were all unfortunate. Repairman was supposed to come to fix the shower door but didn't. All are minor issues, but if addressed would definitely improve the overall stay experience.

Weeklong getaway at Kure Beach

We had a great experience at Kure Beach and it was directly tied to the condo we rented. Steps from the beach with two little kids made this location ideal for our family. The condo provided everything we needed. We will definitely be back and would recommend this property.

Beautiful oceanfront view

Our family had a wonderful time at Kure Beach! The closeness of the beach was amazing! The property was very nice! This was our first time at Kure beach and we loved our experience! The only thing I would say is the beach is a little difficult for young kids to play in because of a drop off but the water is not nearly as rough as beaches up north so we could hold our youngest in the waves. The coquina outcrop rocks are different as well but are really amazing to explore in low tide, our family had the best time catching ocean creatures and we even found a megalodon tooth! Thanks for the memories! It was a great experience!

A wonderful stay

We absolutely loved this property. It was very clean and updated. The view was amazing. We could hear the waves from the master bedroom while we slept. We saw dolphins multiple times. It was out first time to Kure Beach and we’ll definitely be back. The beach and pools were not crowded at all. My only recommendation would be to see if the property is available to rent through Sea Coast rentals. I think we could have saved money if we booked directly through them. That is why there are limited reviews on VRBO. I’d give this place a 10 out of 10. It is for sale so hopefully the new owners won’t change anything.

The most relaxing vacation EVER!

Absolutely, positively the BEST vacation on the beach we've ever spent--and we've spent many! This location is the ultimate if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle--you truly feel like you're on a private beach. Access is literally 10 steps away. Waking up to the sound of the ocean and the ocean sunrise was amazing. The place itself was immaculate. Decorated beautifully, upgraded appliances, everything you need in the kitchen...beds were comfortable, showers were really nice. We plan to come back in mid-September. Worth every penny and then some. Also, added bonus is there are dolphins that you can see swimming in the mornings! Highly, highly recommended.

Amazing oceanfront vacation!!!

We had SUCH an amazing time! As soon as we walked in and saw the view, the kids just screamed. We were literally right on the water with the waves crashing -- such a soothing sound. Everything was very clean and in order. Management was very responsive --We did have a curtain rod come out of the wall in the bedroom while we were there, but one text message and someone showed up to re-install it! Very easy access with code entry. Really convenient to have stacking laundry in the kitchen closet -- it made it so easy to keep everything clean on our stay with all the sunblock and humidity. We really couldn't ask for better! Thanks for a great vacation!
