Great Place!

This is our 2nd year staying at this property. While we enjoyed it last year there were some issues, but not enough to prevent us from returning this year. Everything was resolved, and we could not have been happier with our stay. Location is excellent (2 doors down from a fabulous restaurant: Island Way, that's totally affordable w great food), it's clean and well taken care of, and we noted too, that the appliances had been improved (silverware, cookware, etc). We're excited and planning on returning for our 3rd visit in the fall of '25.

Our home away from home.

We booked our next stay the day after we left. That should say it all. Photos on web are true representation. Well stocked kitchen if cooking on vacation is your thing. Love the Keurig. Great location with the best restaurant on the island right next door. Rocking chairs on the covered porch and just steps from the ocean make this property a gem of a stay.

Very nice location. Needs updating.

The home has a great location. Updating is needed (furniture, paint ceiling vents, sliding doors extremely hard to open, deck needs care) Overall stay was nice location great! Loved Oak Island! Felt a little expensive for home rental w/ what needed updating. Entry door needing screened door. Cannot beat the location!

Not as pictured!

The location was great but the pictures do not reveal that the house is not totally remodeled. While I was thankful for a roof over our head it was not what we thought it to be from the pictures. I would recommend more (a lot more) updates be done to house. It’s what what you’d expect.

Bad neighbors

We like to stay on in ocean front on the beach so we can open the door and hear the ocean and smell the salt air. However, our neighbors were smoking pot. So all we could smell that first day was their stinky weed. Also, we were instructed to call the office for possible early entry but the office was closed. We were fortunate to catch the cleaning lady who allowed us to entry after confirming our reservation. She was so kind. Also, we were shocked that there was no toilet paper or paper towels. We have never in 40 years gone into a rental property at the beach and not had such basics on hand. We were told later that it was because it was "off-season." Probably won't stay here again or use this rental agency.

Conflicted Assessment

Pls know that we loved our vacation at Oak Island. This location is two doors away from a fabulous restaurant that we enjoyed twice during our stay; the first night, and our last night. The issue that my wife and I have with our stay lies w the fact that there was no sliding screen for the porch door. Bc of this, we could not enjoy the sea breeze in our apt. That may seem a small thing to you, and we certainly felt that way by the management company when we called to let them know. Their attitude solely focused on THEIR problem of having the wrong door shipped to them and having to wait until the RIGHT door came in -- while that is completely understandable, their conveyed attitude was nothing short of, "Tough luck, buddy, we've done our best, you just have to accept it." $1400 total cost for us, reasonable and fair with EVERYTHING working, or at least being treated with respect. Had I been notified of this issue AHEAD of time, I would've asked to be moved to another location along the beach; even been willing to pay a few more dollars if necessary-- The company could've very easily acknowledged, and VALIDATED our disappointment and offered to compensate us with a $$ reimbursement, or, "Here's a gift certificate at a nice restaurant --like Island Way-- to THANK you for working with us." NOTHING. So, we're conflicted: We enjoyed our stay; Service left a bad taste in our mouth.

We enjoyed the direct access to the beach, beautiful sunsets and live music from the restaurant at night. We were impressed with how the unit supplied many things we have not seen at other places we have rented Supplying an extra cabinet for dry goods, a whole bin filled with food storage containers, a closet full of games and a room under the deck filled with beach chairs, fishing poles, yard games, etc. It appeared to us that the owner goes the extra mile to make his guests stay more comfortable.

Great Location

Could not beat the location and view. To say this property is recently renovated is a huge stretch - the furniture is old, the microwave handle was duck taped, and the floor was spongy in places. We had to unload the dishwasher when we got there, and it smelled moldy (I'm aware it's summertime in the south). There needs to be sound deadening between the units - we could hear a lot of conversations next door. With just a little love, this property could be spectacular. Loved Island Way restaurant and visiting Southport.

Home Away From Home

This property has everything you need for that perfect beach stay. Despite the fact that it’s a duplex, there is plenty of privacy on the porch with the barrier wall and inside, good sound proofing. Superior cleanliness, and what appeared to be high quality new mattresses. Hardwood floors for easy care and ample amount of quality cookware. Island Way is right next door for eat in or carry out. We will definitely stay here again.

The property is well kept and very clean. It is also in an amazing location 20 minutes from all needs and wants. Priceless to be able to send your kids up to the house to use the bathroom grab a snack etc and be able to watch them to and from the house to the beach.
