The house was very clean and beautiful with great view and close beach access. Our stay was definitely with the money! The only thing I wish I knew, which is not the owners fault, was that you cannot bring “tents” on the beach. Anything with more than 3 points of entry is not allowed. It was hard for us all to have enough shade for us all with only a couple umbrellas when needed.
We had a wonderful family week at this beach house. Everything about it was as expected. House is 150 steps to beach access. Loved that. The outside supply closet had at least 12 beach chairs, a couple floating chairs for pool and 2 umbrellas that did not stay secure in the sand. We purchased a Shibumi and it was wonderful. Worth every penny. Elevator would have been a plus but couldn’t exactly trust that the door would open. So didn’t use. Wonderful memories made at OIB!
If you are planning to use this property, you will be pleased. It is a very short walk to the beach. Please make sure you check bed sizes for all linens that you will need to bring. You will also need to bring all paper products. (napkins, paper towels, toilet paper) We were not prepared, and they were not supplied, Thank goodness Publix is right around the corner, just over the causeway. Make sure you bring dish soap, laundry detergent if you plan on doing laundry, Hand soap as well.We had to make a couple of trips to Publix for these items. Check the pool before you enter as there was a large crab enjoying his time there. The pool net is ripped so I hope you don't have to scoop anything out. We did and it took some time but success was achieved. The beds are not the most comfortable and in my opinion the mattress have run there course and should be replaced, especially the one on the top floor(kitchen location). would consider staying there again now that I know what is needed. The welcome letter is vague.

Stephanie, thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the home’s location and proximity to the beach, but we’re disappointed that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations.
We do want to clarify for future guests that our pre-arrival communications explain what is and is not provided with the rental, including linens and household consumables. We encourage guests to review that information before arrival, and we are always available to answer questions.
We also wish you had contacted us during your stay regarding the pool net, the crab in the pool, or any other concern. We are very responsive to our guests and would have been happy to address those issues immediately rather than have you spend part of your vacation dealing with them yourself.
We appreciate your comments regarding the mattresses and will inspect them based on your feedback.
Beginning with our 2027 season, we are also introducing our Arrival Ready program, which will include linens, beds made before arrival, towels, and starter household and bathroom supplies. This is part of our ongoing effort to make arrival easier for our guests.
We’re pleased to hear that you would consider staying with us again, and we appreciate the feedback.
A great location and plenty of room for 6 adults & 6 kids

Becky, thanks for the review. We always strive for a 5 star review, and yours was the first time we've ever received anything less. I'm glad you enjoyed the spacious home, amenities, as well as the great location. We're always very responsive to guest feedback and would have loved to have known if there were any issues we could have helped to resolved while you were staying with us, but we never were given the opportunity.
Great location in a perfect beach cottage. Highly recommend!

Beautiful ocean-view property
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this stunning luxury home. Everything was extremely well appointed, the kitchen had absolutely everything that we needed, and you can't beat the views from the upper porches - or the beach, just steps away.

Beautiful OIB property for a relaxing, quiet week at the beach

Thanks so much for the great review! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to have you as our guests one again sometime soon!
Location was easy access to the beach! The kitchen had most things we needed! We loved using the griddle to make pancakes, or bacon, or eggs! The kids loved having the pool to come back to after the beach, or to start the day off while waiting for everyone to get ready! The beds were comfy, which was super important for us grandparents! The elevator was such a blessing to get food and luggage to the right floor! Not to mention the outside closet that had beach chairs, umbrellas and sand toys. We didn’t have to bring any of that, so we brought 2 bikes to ride instead! It was great!
This house was perfect for a mom's weekend away. We love the layout and the large kitchen and dining areas. The outdoor space was perfect for relaxing with coffee in the mornings. Quick walk to the beach. The owner was very responsive when we had to contact him briefly at checkin. We would definitely stay here again!

Thanks for the great review! It was a pleasure to have you as our guests! We look forward to welcoming you back to one of our properties sometime soon!
The house is wonderful, filled with everything we needed, with plenty of space for our family! The pool and decks were amazing! We ate almost every meal on the upper level deck; we even spotted dolphins jumping while we were out enjoying the deck! The walk to the beach was so quick and easy, and the beach equipment (chairs and umbrellas) was great!
Everyrhing is exactly as described! Our family had everything we needed, gates, bed rail, booster seat, pool and beach supples. The house was clean and very accommodating. Close to the beach. We enjoyed family time together.
Great location right across from the beach, this house was the perfect place for our family of 11 to spread out and enjoy. The kitchen was well stocked, the pool was perfect and the owners left beach supplies to make traveling super easy. As an out of state renter, not familiar with the island, renting towels and bed sheets for the property was a bit of a surprise, but the owner was super helpful navigating my confusion and providing check in details/helpful links day of. I highly recommend this property!

About the host
Hosted by Eric Janson
Vacation OIB is a family-run business built around a simple idea: create the kind of Ocean Isle Beach vacation experience we would want for our own family.
We’ve been welcoming families to Ocean Isle Beach for many years and have hosted thousands of satisfied guests. Through it all, our priority has remained the same: our guests come first. Your comfort, happiness, and overall vacation experience matter to us.
We take pride in our homes and stay personally involved in making sure they are well maintained, well equipped, and ready for your family to enjoy. Many of our guests return year after year, and there is no greater compliment than seeing families make Vacation OIB part of their own beach traditions.
With our Vacation OIB Arrival Ready program, we’re taking that commitment even further. Fresh linens, made beds, towels, starter essentials, coffee supplies, a digital guest guide, and local support help make arriving at the beach easier.
We want you to arrive, settle in, and start enjoying Ocean Isle Beach.
Why they chose this property
For us, location was everything.
Our homes are on 1st Street in Ocean Isle Beach, approximately 60 yards from beach access. You’re close enough to walk across the street and have your toes in the sand within minutes, while still enjoying the space, privacy, pool, and amenities of your own vacation home.
We also love the views. Look toward the ocean from the front decks or enjoy beautiful Ocean Isle Beach sunsets over the Intracoastal Waterway from the rear.
Ocean Isle Beach has the family beach atmosphere we were looking for, with restaurants, shops, activities, and attractions nearby. It’s also conveniently located between Wilmington and Myrtle Beach, with plenty of golf, dining, shopping, and entertainment within an easy drive.
It’s a location that lets you do as much or as little as you want. And that’s exactly how a beach vacation should feel.
What makes this property unique
Paradise Found was designed as a vacation home first, not simply a rental property.
The difference starts with the location: approximately 50 yards from beach access with ocean and Intracoastal Waterway views. Add a private pool, elevator, five bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, two family rooms, more than 1,250 square feet of outdoor decking, whole-home audio, Smart TVs, a well-equipped kitchen, and plenty of room for groups of up to 17.
We also provide beach chairs, umbrellas, a beach cart, and cooler, so there’s less bulky gear to bring from home.
What really sets us apart is Vacation OIB Arrival Ready. Your beds are made with fresh linens before you arrive, and bath towels, washcloths, starter bath and household essentials, Keurig coffee supplies, a digital guest guide, and local support are all part of the experience.
We own three neighboring Vacation OIB homes, creating a unique option for extended families and groups who want to vacation together while still having their own space.
Most importantly, this is our family business. We care about our homes, your comfort, and making your Ocean Isle Beach vacation one you’ll want to repeat.
