Much needed getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our time in Kure Beach was just what we needed after a busy spring! The place was perfect and the proximity to the beach couldn't be better. You can almost feel the spray on your face at high tide. The facilities were awesome and having the largest indoor pool on the island came in handy for the when it was rainy.

The beach

We enjoyed our condo except for the flies. It was hard to enjoy the patio with all the flies. Also the rocks on the beach are nice to look at but for my teenagers who wanted to boogie board it was dangerous. Had to walk a bit down the beach to not have rocks.

Incredible location, very nice accommodations

Balcony over the beach. You can see the surf from the bed in the master bedroom. Pools right across the street. Quiet Kure beach is beautiful. Enjoy a sunrise walk to Fort Fisher Recreation Area. The room was very clean upon arrival. The only rub is the master bath does not have a functioning towel rack. Be sure to bring sharp knives if you cook. Definitely considering a return.

Great beachfront condo!

We enjoyed staying here for the weekend. The condo is large and had everything we needed. Furnishings are old but that wasn’t a concern. Some of the electric outlets didn’t seem to work and the drain in the primary bathroom was slow. There was also an odor coming from the garbage disposal that we couldn’t figure out how to work. Despite this, the large balcony directly on the beach was perfect. We also walked across the street to use the pool in the rec center and it was also nice.

Molly, thank you for the review! We are glad you enjoyed your stay and will look into the outlets and the drain! A lot of our properties have some interesting wiring that makes it hard to determine what switches control what outlets and lights, but we will take a deeper look to confirm! Thanks again, and we hope to see you back soon!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed this property. Having pool access was great! Loved being right on the beach. Having dinner watching the ocean was so peaceful. Water pressure was great. Not the most updated... but I didn't feel like I needed to stress about things with my kids either. Water pressure was amazing. I do wish they had plastic plates, but they had plenty of dishes for our needs. We would stay there again.

Great vacay

This condo is very close to the water. It was wonderful to leave the sliding door open and listen to the waves. It overlooks mossy rocks. Note that it is in a complex so one thing you don’t get is seclusion. But it was still a very peaceful place. It’s very close to Fort Fisher, so hopping on the ferry to Southport is easy. The overall property needs upgrading. Elevator was dirty and run down looking. There’s a cart available to help you unload, which proved very helpful.

But: stove light out, twin bedroom some electric outlets dead, not enough covers for twin beds, wires cut/torn on tv/dvd input. Apt needs a general run through of inexpensive updates.

LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION

I could not have been happier with the location of this condo. You seriously cannot get any closer to the ocean or to the town shops and restaurants. So for that reason, I would highly recommend this condo. Unfortunately, the condo itself needs a lot of TLC. It is extremely outdated and the beds were not comfortable to sleep on. Especially the queen bed, not only was it uncomfortable, but it also makes this awful squeaking sound, so I was waking up several times a night just by rolling over. I would likely stay here again because of the location, but I really hope the owners make some updates soon.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I am afraid that I can't say this was a great experience. It seemed that the office was too busy to attend to our needs in a timely manner. From issues with the door lock to Wifi info to air conditioning problem, their response was really delayed. I just kept being notified that they were really busy.
Response from VrboOwner on 31 May 2022
Hi Connie- We apologize for any inconveniences you experienced during your visit. The internet modem had just recently been replaced and unfortunately, affected the keyless door lock... we are happy our on-staff maintenance tech was able to correct. We have also looked into the a/c issue mentioned, it does appear there was a small problem with it the last afternoon of your stay, which was repaired shortly after reporting. We are disappointed that your experience wasnt as anticipated and hope it did not affect your overall experience at the property.

Our favorite Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed at this condo several times and have always enjoyed it. This last visit, I noticed several issues that need addressing. 1)Hand towel rack in master bath has come away from the wall and needs replaced more securely. 2)The lavatory drain in the master bath needs a plunge; water is slow to go down. 3)I mentioned after a previous visit that the overhead light fixture in the kitchen is out and needs new bulbs, yet they have not been replaced. The condo is showing some wear and tear, needs a fresh coat of paint, but all in all, it's still our favorite getaway.
Response from VrboOwner on 28 June 2022
Thanks Jean, we appreciate and value your feedback. It is wonderful to hear that you enjoy coming back to visit this condo, and I hope you will let us know of any issues that arise when you are next in town as we stand ready to address any issues every day of the week. We have replaced the ballast in that kitchen fixture, as the bulbs were continually failing. We'll address the towel bar and slow drain as well, and we'll surely make the painting suggestion for an off-season spruce up. Please do make your plans to come back and visit soon!

Will never stay at this property or one managed by Bryant

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were told upon check in that the washing machine was broken and would be repaired in 3 days. The washer was so old that their were no parts, so no washer for the week. The dishwasher was broken spewing soap and water everywhere. The blanket had large blood stains in several spots and the tv after a storm would only get one channel. Discussed these things with Chris was never offered any refunds. Worst vacation EVER!!! The beach had large boulders taking up half of the beach front as well as into the water so everyone was segregated to small areas of the beach.
Response from VrboOwner on 17 August 2021
Jennie - We wish you could have looked past the broken washer machine and enjoyed your vacation at this beautiful ocean front condo. I do see that we have credited your account for the broken washer, glad we could accommodate you with that. Thank you for alerting us of these cleaning issues after your checked out. So you know, our Hospitality Department is avaible to all guests upon request. We wish that we had the opportunity to fix these issues you state you found.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Nice unit but by not taking care of the little things not a great unit.The master bath had a missing towel rack which we noticed every day for two weeks. Toilet seat broken but usable. Many electrical outlets not working. In the kitchen microwave electrical outlet and/or cord faulty resulting in microwave losing power if microwave was bumped. Kitchen did not have a can opener. Shower in second bathroom had a faulty on/off button. Main door misaligned resulting in a hard to close door.Good items include nice furniture in living room, dining area and deck. Not much beach in front of unit but very close to ocean which was cool.If little things were corrected we would use this unit again.Interaction with Bryant was positive.
