About this property

Feel the heartbeat of the ocean, the breath of the sea @ The Heart of the Sea!

If you have ever seen the TV show "Buying Alaska," you know one of their opening lines is...In Alaska, the real amenities are on the outside. The same applies to Kure Beach. When your trip brings you to Kure Beach to enjoy all those amenities, I invite you to make the most of your trip with a stay at The Heart of the Sea.

The Heart of the Sea is like no other at Kure Beach. Ground floor….corner unit….no stairs….with parking less than ten(10) feet from your front door! While not considered “handicap” approved, access to our unit with no stairs makes for the perfect vacation home! Step out your door and enjoy all that Kure Beach has to offer!!

The Heart of the Sea is as close as you can get to the ocean at Kure Beach......unless you are in it! The Heart is ten(10) steps from the beach access. The beautiful bedroom has a new, comfortable queen size bed, 2 night stands, chest, and wall mirror....double closet with plenty of storage space... and a 25 inch TV.

There are 2 bunks in the alcove with storage drawers for all those bathing suits and stuff the kids will want to bring! The living room furniture is so cozy and comfortable. You can sit in a favorite chair, on the sofa or in the recliner and still take in the amazing views without leaving the house! Charter Spectrum is both the internet and cable provider. You can enjoy the Spectrum Bronze package on the 42 inch smart TV.

One bath....with tub and shower combo, lots of counter space and a washer and dryer for your convenience .

Your fully equipped kitchen has a Mr. Coffee maker for your favorite cup of morning Joe. A built in microwave and counter top toaster oven are included for your convenience. Complete kitchen supplies are there for your use if you decide to eat in, possibly enjoying some of the locally fresh seafood.

You will have a 180 degree view of the 41.1 million square mile Atlantic Ocean! Can it get any better? Yes! It can and it does! Sit in the one of the two hammock chairs on the deck once and you will never want to leave this island paradise! A charcoal grill for your use is located in the sand yard. Watch the dolphins play as you enjoy a meal on the built in deck bar! Don’t miss a thing trying to peer over the railing.

When in the mood for sand and surf, bring your beach chairs and umbrella from home or utilize one of the local rental companies, that book you've been wanting to read.... and sit on the quiet beach that is literally seconds from your door! Let the magic happen!

So much to do in the area and still feel like you have your own private island!
The NC Aquarium is 1 mile away. The Civil War rich Fort Fisher is adjacent to our property. This property includes approximately 1/4 mile walkway where you can revisit the protection the fort provided the Port of Wilmington. Take time to visit the visitor's center and view an audio visual program telling the history of Fort Fisher. The ferry is app. 2 miles away! For $7, you and your vehicle can cross the Cape Fear River to the amazing little town of Southport.

We want your experience to reflect our appreciation of our guests and of all our blessings! Should you need us, we are a phone call or text away. We want your time at The Heart to be all you want and all you expect it to be!

There is NO place like Kure! There is NO place like The Heart of the Sea! We sincerely hope it's your place to be in 2023.

My review has to be WOW
First let me start by saying the pictures do not do this beautiful place any justice. The view is breath taking , truly the closet I’ve ever stayed ON the beach! The property was so clean and quiet. You have the entrance to the beach right beside your front door. The hammock swings are my favorite part of the whole place. We ended up ordering take out and enjoyed it on the swings with an amazing view. They have a closet FULL of sand toys you can use . I wish I could post the 1,000 pictures I took of the view in just the one night we stayed at your property! The pool looked nice and very clean. If you go to this property the aquarium is possibly 5 minutes away so I would suggest checking that out!! I have already recommended this place to so many people and hope every one of you get to enjoy this place at least once in your life time!!

Perfect clean getaway
This condo was exactly as pictured. It had everything we needed. It was so clean. This place is right on the ocean. Like steps away. We enjoyed watching the water and waves and the moon shining on the water at night. Beds were very comfortable. Restaurants are a close drive.

Everything we needed
We stayed 3 nights and it was amazing! Perfect place for a quick Mother/Daughter get away. Sunrise from the ocean front deck was stunning. Plenty of streaming apps already loaded to the tv (one of our days was a little rainy and this was great for us!). Clean and convenient property. Everything listed was in working order and as described in the listing. We felt very safe staying at this property. Great communication from property owner/manager.

About the host

Hosted by Steve Reedy

Host profile image
Our primary goal is sharing The Heart with our guests and providing you the opportunity to make memories for a lifetime. We want to make sure our unit is exactly what we advertise and your stay will be exactly as you anticipated. Our primary residence is the the lovely mountains of Southwest Virginia. Truly blessed to be able to say, "from the mountains to the sea!"

Why they chose this property

Kure is the perfect vacation for families and for those who need a get away from the "real" world! I have found no other place that offers the beauty and peacefulness that Pleasure Island offers. Our condo is located in the last condo community on the island. It's private, quiet and beautiful! We have walking trials all around and the sunset and sunrise are amazing! For us, it's like having a private island and who doesn't need that!?

What makes this property unique

Our property is within10 steps of the beach access. Designated parking is 10 feet from our front steps, no hassle. First floor with 180 degree view of the ocean! No other condo on the island can get you closer to the Atlantic. And that's why we love our Heart of the Sea.
