Nice family beach house

We really enjoyed our stay. The home was very open and spacious. Perfect for our family with the master bedroom and huge bathroom on one end and two nice spacious bedrooms at the other end. Well stocked kitchen. Our fur baby loves the large yard. Nice little neighborhood.Only a quick drive over the bridge to get to the beach.

Wedding Weekend

We had a lovely stay. Rooms were spacious, comfortable and clean. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking and plenty of dishware available. Setting was quiet and private. We were able to rest and prep for family wedding without care. Oh yes, and the 2 fur pups loved the outdoors. We would stay again.

Sanddollar in Ocean Isle Beach

We booked this location to attend my daughter's wedding at Brick Landing Plantation, the property was very clean and WAY more spacious than the pictures depict - a great space for sure. Communication with the property manager was fantastic, they were very attentive to my questions and getting me the contracts and details in a very timely manner. To add, the neighborhood is very quiet with the HOA president and his wife directly across the street - very nice folks!! If it is an event or simply a beach get away this is a good choice.

Family wedding

The property was the perfect location to attend a family wedding at Sunset Beach Park and the wedding reception at the Isles in Ocean Isle Beach. The kitchen was equipped with many amenities which made preparing meals effortlessly. Check-in was simple and the house was clean and cozy. My only suggestion would be to have extra blankets available in each bedroom.

We had a terrific stay! The house is spacious, clean, and well-appointed, and the host was incredibly accommodating and responsive. The private yard and high-quality TVs were highlights, though mounting the living room TV lower closer to the fireplace mantel would improve the viewing angle. The master bed was great with soft sheets, but the furniture in the living and dining areas, along with the second bedroom mattress (you hear the springs popping through the night), are all quite worn and lack any support. Especially the couch - it really is past useful life so a new firmer L-shaped sofa with some support, would really level up the comfort. We also suggest warmer softer light bulbs in the kitchen and dining chandelier (harsh lights to look at). Lastly, replacement would be nice for the broken items in the garage - the bikes, beach chairs & umbrella. A newer cleaner grill may have made us feel we could use it. Despite these details, the house is wonderful and you won’t find a better host. I would definitely stay here again!

The check-in was easy. The house itself is roomy and clean. This is the first VRBO that we have been to that the beds/linens were clean. The neighborhood is nice. Work needs to be done on the floor between the washroom, bathroom, and back bedrooms. There is a huge dip. We placed a basket as a marker so as not to step in that spot for fear of injury to us and/or more damage to the floor. The dishwasher’s detergent dispenser is broken. The stove does not work well. There are instructions on how to turn it on. However, the burners will not warm up. The plumbing needs work. The toilets clog very easy and the tub in the master bath gurgles when the dishwasher is running. Sounds like water is backed up. Our daughter sent a message over the app about the dishwasher and the owner was very kind and replied in a reasonable amount of time. These sound like major problems, but we were able to work around it and still enjoyed our stay. The owners are kind and whoever cleans the house should teach other VRBO cleaners what to do. It was nice to be able to lay in a clean bed after traveling for 16 hours. The instructions for check-out are also very simple. It was nice to rent a VRBO with plenty of towels/wash cloths provided. They even provide hangers.
