We needed to bring both of our smaller dogs with us on vacation as one has health issues. Jackie was wonderful to work with us. The fenced in yard is small but perfect for them to do their business. great areas to walk your dogs as well and within a few minute drive to Ft Fisher beach which is dog friendly year round. Jackie clearly states that there is no kitchen; however there is a small fridge, microwave, coffee pot. Our only issue was dealing with washing up dishes, etc. since you have to use a basin and the bathroom sink, etc. Again we knew this going in. If the closet off of the kitchen could be switched out for a very mini kitchenette it would be perfection!! She is still dealing with some repairs from Florence but nothing that was an issue for us. Thank you Jackie for working with us with Jackson and Kiah! We had a great week!! Steve, Ellen, Kiah and Jackson
My wife and I had a fantastic stay in kure Beach. When we arrived Jackie was there waiting to greet us, check us in, and give us the rundown of what’s around the location.
The hospitality we received was truly wonderful.
We look forward to another occasion to visit Kure Beach and receive such wonderful welcome.
Thank you Jackie, for a wonderful stay!
Had a good time since we could bring our Corgi along
Some of the exterior is still recovering from storm damage but it is still comfortable and nice inside. Staying here was like visiting a long known acquaintance. Ann, Lola (Corgi), and I look forward to staying again !
Open your condo door and let your beloved pet enjoy a large fenced area. The condo is clean and well appointed with all amenities provided. Jackie, the owner ,is readily available to help make your stay pleasant and worry free. Carol, Sammy our Yorkie, and l look forward to staying at Oceanside again.

Clean and friendly
Me and my wife recently visited this play and it was a great stay! Right across the road from a beach access point which was never too heavily populated. Jackie was very accommodating and friendly. She is a great person who will answer any questions honestly and is down to Earth! The place was clean and all any couple would need for a few days stay. We took our fur pup and he had a blast! The dog beach is a short 5 minute drive away and people really keep the area clean of dog waste. The main shopping and restaurant area is about a 10 minute drive away and it can get crowded if you try to go on a weekend night after 6 but all the food we ate was delicious! We plan on staying here again!

Great location extremely pet friendly, easy beach access
Jackie has a cozy spot for 1-2 people which was clean, quiet and well appointed and great for small pets. Easy communication, check in and check out, located close to Fort Fisher and downtown Kure Beach as well as very close to attractions of Carolina Beach. Highly recommended.

Wonderful trip to Kure Beach
We really enjoyed our stay at Oceanside Island Paradise. The room was clean and very nice. It was equipped with everything you need for a few days at the beach. Would definitely consider staying here again in the future.

Convenient to Beach
We were in Kure Beach for the first time. We had a pet with us and needed a place to sleep, which was the only reason we used VRBO. In terms of convenience to the beach and the ferry terminal, you can't go wrong. As others have stated the home is clean, and Owner goes out of her way to check on you and make sure things are perfect. She includes pet treats, water and a welcome bottle of wine and assistance with anything you might need regarding the area and attractions. If you have a pet, need a yard or want to be near the water - the home is fine and is easy to come and go from. (Be aware Kure Beach prohibits dogs on beach during summer months.) For us personally the value proposition wasn't there. When you factor in nightly rate, cleaning fee, pet fee, security deposit and fact you pay all them weeks before the visit, plus fact the overall area is mediocre and geared toward young people, I would have preferred to stay at a hotel in Southport, which we did for the last night. The accommodations are cramped, the bedroom is dark, the kitchenette consists of an old microwave and small fridge, and your only view from yard or bedroom is of the neighbor's balconies, who sit outside smoking all day and night. If you are renting unit to be at beach the accommodations are convenient, but given overall cost and restrictions, (for us) there are cleaner, nicer, "other" options better suited to our personal needs. Plus at a hotel you won't have to pay the 1k up front, nor wait to hopefully get a security deposit back, nor have check out instructions that include stripping beds nor pay inflated cleaning fees and you get flexibility to check out early. The cover image shows a beautiful home with welcoming patios. The actual accommodations are accessible via the back yard only, and consist of a tiny family and bedroom behind garage. If you wish to be at beach with flexibility to come and go, this home is an adequate and convenient option.

Puppy Paradise!
My husband and I decided to take a beach trip with our pups. Jackie really made it comfortable and enjoyable for all of us! She provided us with so much information to help make our stay fantastic and she was more than accommodating to all our needs. The "dog beach" was a short drive up the road and for my husband and I we could simply walk across the street from the house when we didn't have the dogs to visit Kure beach. Thanks so much Jackie and Sophie.

Fantastic home close to public beach access
Perfect weekend getaway. We felt like locals driving past the crowds then pulling into our private driveway only to be on the beach seconds later. Jackie was very welcoming and made the experience so much better. The backyard was a bonus especially if you have a pet. We enjoyed checking out the town, walking on the beach, surfing and quiet evenings reading some of the many books in the apartment.

What a Great Apartment-Location!!!
My wife and I had an excellent trip. One of the few places that allowed dogs. We couldn't have asked for a better location. Jackie, thank you for the great hospitality. I would definitely recommend this VRBO to friends and family.

Very neat and clean with everything you could possibly need for a stay at beach.
We had a wonderful vacation at Oceanside Island Paradise. The owner was very nice and provided everything you could want for a beach get-a-way. Our
pooch loved the pretty fenced-in pet area. It was nice and shady and relaxing.
We highly recommend this pet-friendly property and will definitely stay here again! The location is great.....just walk across the street and you are on the
Beautiful Kure beach.

Awesome Rental!!
Oceanside rental, Kure Beach, NC
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
I enjoyed my vacation staying at the Oceanside rental property in Kure Beach, NC! It was perfect for a romantic getaway: choose to the ferry, beach, pier and restaurants. It was clean, easy to access and the owner (Jackie) provided everything we could ask for (beach towels, linens, private entry, fenced in yard for dogs!).
We felt very welcome and had a great time, I would definitely return!

Lovely home--Wonderful Owner--Great Location!
We loved our trip to Kure Beach, NC, and it would not have been the same without our awesome "apartment" in Jackie and Sophie's home. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. It had a fenced in backyard which our dogs loved, and it was very convenient to let them out for a quick potty break before we went off to explore the area. The location was in walking distance of all the shops/restaurants in the area, and it was very close to a few spots that were FABULOUS for walking the dogs. Jackie and Sophie were very hospitable, friendly, and gave us an in-depth guide of where to go and what to see during our stay. Her suggestions turned out to be fabulous! I would highly recommend this property to anyone (especially dog lovers!) who want to be within a stones throw of all that Kure Beach has to offer.

Very relaxing!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Oceanside! Jackie and Sophie were perfect hosts and the apartment provided everything we needed. Just a few things at the local grocery store and we were all set. We highly recommend Oceanside to anyone looking to get away from it all for a few days!
