Easter 2024

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was beautiful, clean and perfect for our needs except the fridge was broken. This made it very inconvenient for the Easter gathering we had planned. We had a lot of food that needed to be kept cold for the weekend. We packed the fridge with ice until maintenance was able to bring us more coolers and dorm fridges. It was really not ideal but acceptable. Overall our stay was great. The location was great, the view was good. The entrance to the beach was close by. I just wish there was easier communication. Only way to ask questions was through email.

Awesome Rental

We had such a great time. The rental is so so nice, with high ceilings on all floors (i think 9’?), beautiful modern finishes and appliances, super comfortable (and newer) furniture, and gorgeous décor throughout. It was super clean, very open and airy, but also comfortable and cozy at the same time. Location is great, super convenient to the beach, to fort fisher, to the ferry to Southport, to the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, and even to downtown Wilmington for the battleship. Everyone loved it, old to young, and the kids particularly liked the bunk beds. I highly recommend this property, except for the weeks that we want to use it next year, because we will be back!!

Arrival was smooth and everything in the home was clean and well stocked. Our family of 6 (4 adults and 2 kids) had plenty of space to spread out and find comfortable sleeping arrangements; however, the lower level bedroom can hear the water rushing through the pipes when anyone else in the home flushes toilets or showers. Knowing that. The were mindful of that at night so The only snag we had was the condition of the communal pool when we arrived but it was remedied in 24 hours from when I notified our host. Our location was convenient to both the boardwalk in CB as well as the Kure Beach Pier and its surrounding attractions. The walk from the townhome to the beach was very easy and the crosswalk provided peace of mind as my kids crossed the street. All in all it was a wonderful stay and we would definitely book another stay here in the future!

Not as nice as it use to be

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our third stay at this property (2023, 2024, and again in July 2026), which is why it's disappointing to write this review. We've always enjoyed this home, but this year's stay was noticeably different.When we arrived, the property was not as clean or well-maintained as it had been during our previous visits. The windows were dirty, the TV screen had fingerprints all over it, there was an old grape under the TV stand, there was black mold on the ceiling in the powder room, and the living room couches had several noticeable stains. Overall, the home just didn't have the clean, fresh feel that we had come to expect.We also discovered that the dishwasher was leaking after we ran it for the first time, leaving water on the kitchen floor. We contacted the property management company, and they did offer to send someone out to repair it. We appreciated their willingness to address the issue, but since we were on vacation, we didn't want to spend part of our trip waiting for a repair technician.We still love the location and have many great memories at this property, which is why we've returned three times. We hope the owners and property management company will pay closer attention to the cleanliness and maintenance of the home so that future guests—and returning families like ours—can enjoy the same high standard we experienced during our previous stays.
