We love seeing this review. Our Casa Sea Esta place in Oak Island is truly a peaceful destination. The tranquil canal right on the backside and the beach within a short walk distance makes it all worth it.
The house is beautiful, directly on the Davis Canal. You walk up to the right of the enterance to gain access. You walk into the kitchen, there are two rooms on the right with a small shower bath combo and one to the left with a nice shower. Of note there is no tv in the kids bedroom with bunk beds. The house needs a good scrub, from what we noticed (probably just lots of bookings), however it is well appointed. Also, we noticed a lot of lightbulbs that needed to be replaced. Overall, we had a great time and appreciate the host and home.

Thanks for your review. We’re pleased you like our house. We asked our crew team to check for light bulbs and minor issues to be addressed. Apologies for minor details you encountered. It will be all sorted soon.

We have vacationed at Oak Island since 2006, and of the houses that we have rented, this was my favorite. The house was very clean, and nicely decorated without feeling cluttered. Kitchen had lots of storage space for groceries, and the basics for meal prep. Beds were comfortable.We loved the dock and spent a good bit of time fishing. The yard area has a fire pit that we didn't get to use, but they have plenty of chairs for seating around it. There is also a picnic table and swing under the house. The location worked well for us. It is a short drive to the beach, and most days I walked to the beach over the scenic walkway on 31st. The views from the walkway at sunrise and sunset are worth it. It is close to Publix, and an easy drive to other grocery stores, restaurants, etc. The hosts were very responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend for your next OKI vacation!

Thanks for this wonderful review Nicole. We love reading your feedback, and we are looking forward to hosting your family again in the near future.
So glad you like the house and Oak Island.
All the best, David and Darla B.
The location was excellent and the home was very nice and updated. We enjoyed the dock and the screened in porch. We would definitely stay there again!
This was a very lovely and comfortable house, perfect for our family. It was right on a canal and my son enjoyed fishing. We walked to the beach and we enjoyed the neighborhood.

Wonderful house, good communication and just really lovely location to relax, fish or launch from. Last house on the street with a private dock right on the canal. Firepit with hardwood that we grilled dinner over.

Our stay was amazing. The weather cooperated with the most beautiful accommodations. The listing was spot on. Short drive to the beach and a private dock out your back door. We would definitely recommend. We would like to stay again next year.
