We enjoyed the house and the decks provide a great view. The location of this home on the beach is wonderful. Wide beautiful beach just outside the door.
The house was at a great location. When we arrived it was clean and check in was very easy. Dealing with Connie was so easy. We had several little things but once Connie was contacted they were taken care of quickly and efficiently. The outdoor furniture could use a little updating but honestly being tight on the beach I feel like the wear and tear on it is probably a lot. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.
We could not have asked for a better experience! The house was clean and had exactly what we needed. The views from either deck were outstanding. Ocean Isle is one of the cleanest beaches we have ever visited. The hosts are very communicative, flexible and welcoming. Looking forward to visiting again!

Thank you for your kind words. We try hard to please our guests. We would love to have you back.
This was a great stay. We chose this property for the accessibility to the beach and it worked out wonderfully. The house was clean and had everything we needed, the bed was comfortable and the owners were great communicators and very flexible. Would stay again for sure
Very nice beach house, well stocked. Incredible view from the master bed - you just want to lay there all day! Plus there's plenty of outdoor seating on the various decks to enjoy the ocean while having some privacy from other guests, or switch decks from AM to PM depending if you want to follow the sun or hide from it. Beach itself is very clean and plenty of sand now. Beds and linens are all nice. You can see both sunrise (a bit obstructed by the house next to it) and sunset (unobstructed) over the ocean, as the house faces south. It's maybe 4 miles away from "town" near the end of the island, which makes it quiet but not convenient to shopping/food.
This is an amazing location and a great house. Definitely hoping to stay again in the future! Down away from all the noise and the part of beach was much less crowded. They have tons of chairs and beach stuff available. Lotssss of parking. And everything else you need for a great stay. Nice hosts and easy to communicate with.
We have stayed here before but feel like the place was even better the second time. The beach has been significantly expanded in front of the house

Thank you for your gracious review. We have a wide, wonderful sandy white beach thanks to the Town of Ocean Isle. We have also made many improvements inside and outside the house. Glad you had a great stay and hope to see you again.
Thank you for choosing us for your stay at OIB and for leaving our house so clean. You are welcome back anytime.

Perfect Spring Break
House, beach, and town were perfect combo. We could relax or do activities and switch modes easily. The owners have taken great care in the accommodations & guest experience. They were a joy to rent from and the house and location were fantastic.

Thank you for your kind words. We try very hard to make your stay relaxed and enjoyable. Thanks for booking our home.
This is a great house and works well for all ages. The gate on the porch helps keep the toddlers in (😄) and the view is stunning for the adults! This end of the island is truly a treasure, our favorite by far.
We loved everything about this house. Plenty of space for 12 people without feeling cramped or on top of one another. Great location, loads of outdoor space, very equipped kitchen, awesome views. Would def recommend!!
Property was clean upon arrival and exactly as described. Location to beach is unbeatable- so convenient with little kids and frequent trips back and forth from the beach. Great outdoor space on decks to enjoy and still feel “on the beach”while babies napping and perfect for morning coffee and evening dinners. We will definitely be back!

Wow......what wonderful things to say. Thank you so very much. We look forward to having you back.
This was our family’s first time visiting OIB and we loved this rental property! The location next to the public access was incredibly convenient, and having porch options on either side of the house worked well to always have a shady, breezy spot no matter what time of day it was. The home is well-stocked and had plenty of supplies and amenities.

Our family of 11 had a wonderful time staying at “What a Gift”. Perfect accommodations and location.
Convenient beach access and the little park was nice. Connie was very easy to work with and went above and beyond to answer any question. She even mailed our left behind bed pillows to us. Highly recommend this property!! We loved it!

Thank you for staying with us and your positive remarks. We try to make each guest happy and satisfied.
We used to bring our kids who are all adults now to Ocean Isle Beach when they were younger. We have never stayed on this end of Ocean Isle Beach but absolutely love it! The home is well-kept and well appropriated and offers ample deck space for meals outside in the sun or shade! The beds were comfy and kitchen well stocked! Having linens included was a plus!
Next to an entrance to the beach. Plenty of beds. Kitchen well stocked
Only complaint: 4 rolls of toilet paper is not enough for 10 of us, for 6 days.
