It was a great place to stay, it was clean and right on the beach. The only negative I have is the master suite bed was very uncomfortable. Other than that it was wonderful.

dated property with comfy beds. Dishwasher leaked. Guest sink clogged. Plates, glasses, cookware VERY dated. Cookware almost unusable. Stove iffy to use. Sofas and beds were nice and comfortable, however. Great location if you want to be off the beaten track and close to Fort Fisher, but you cannot really walk to any restaurants, etc.

Great Oceanfront Location

It is a very nice condo, clean, well-maintained, property location feels safe and is about as close to ocean as you can get.The rental property office is a little hard to find, signage could be clearer.

From Vegas to the beaches of NC

Great location on the beach! Property is decent, has most things you need to enjoy the beach. We had 5 days on the beach and could walk 1 minute to the condo for lunch. We didn’t find a grill nearby and the master bedroom sliding door is rusted and not usable. Otherwise, this place is great if beach access is a priority.

Disliked: Communication
Very disappointing experience.The management company knew before we arrived that the Wi-Fi was out. We actually received a voicemail before our arrival informing us of the problem. If they had contacted Spectrum then, this could potentially have been resolved before we ever got there. Instead, we arrived with the issue still unresolved.The Wi-Fi was unavailable for roughly half of our stay. Since all of the TVs in the condo are smart TVs that depend on Wi-Fi, those were also unusable during that time.What really ruined the experience for us was how little effort seemed to be made to actually resolve the problem. The handyman eventually contacted Spectrum, and I spent three hours of my vacation sitting at the condo waiting for the Spectrum technician while everyone else was supposed to be enjoying the beach. That’s roughly 25% of the beach time we had available during our trip.The internet was finally restored, and I was hoping that would be the end of it. The following morning, management contacted us asking for all of the router/internet information so they could forward it to the HOA. This was after I had already spent three hours dealing with the problem and getting it fixed. That was incredibly frustrating because it made it clear that, had I not pushed the issue and gotten Spectrum out there, we were apparently looking at another day of the same problem.

Needs work

We used the keypad and entered the property easily. Instant sewer smell from the sink. Management didn't address the issue. Porch had boards sticking up-no beach chairs. The rest of the place was fine, but they really should throw on a coat of paint and offer unbroken beach chairs. I typically don't complain, but come on!

Thank you for your review and your feedback. After looking through our records, it looks like we sent maintenance out to try and address the sewer smell. We apologize for these issues. This home does not advertise having beach chairs so we are not sure what is being referred to regarding this matter. We will pass the paint suggestion on to the owner. We truly appreciate your feedback as we are always looking to improve our guest experience. Thanks!

Perfect quiet Beach getaway

First of all, Carolina realty was awesome, the girl at the office when I picked up my stuff was very sweet and friendly. The house and the bedding and everything was super clean. I can tell that the management company does a very good job. The property is in an unbelievably gorgeous location and it's very nice the only downside is there was a lot of rust on the patio and the wood is getting pretty old but I understand the beach and water really does a lot of damage to the outside surfaces. The house was pretty much as described. Some of the white furniture was painted to look new and fresh but it was actually just old wood furniture. Other than that it was absolutely great. I would definitely stay here again. Most definitely use Carolina realty and like I said the location is just unbelievably. Amazing if you want a quiet gorgeous retreat

Thank you for your great, 5-star review! We are always thrilled to hear great things about our team and our properties. Unfortunately, oceanfront homes exteriors do see a lot of damage but we hope this didn't detract from your stay! Ocean Dunes is always a great choice for a quiet, relaxing stay! We look forward to hosting you again in the near future!

Decent but overpriced? Maybe this is Kure?

Pros: - Great communication from the property manager. Really liked the texting - The "Guest Portal" was super helpful - This unit comes with access to large recreational facility across the street (perfect for kids in rainy weather) - Nice location overlooking the beach - Seemed to be a quiet section of beach that's right out the door - The King Bed was comfortable - The kitchen had everything we needed - The TV and couch setup was comfortable - Pretty close to restaurants Cons: - No soap or shampoo provided - Wood on the deck was pealing up - Screws inside the unit were sticking up on the floor entering the bathroom - The paint on the outer wall of the unit is orange from rust lines - The decking needs to be replaced (or at least repainted and resealed) - No updates. It felt old. Overall, the space was what we needed and it was great being on the beach. It feels very expensive for the amount of updates it needs. We've stayed a lot of places through VRBO and have never written a negative review. It might just be that Kure Beach isn't for us.

Can't get closer to the water!

If you are looking to hear the waves from your bedroom/living room, this is the place for you! Checkin was a breeze with their automated system, except you had to stop at the office for your parking pass. During your stay you can expect the automated system to ask you for a review on the 2nd day and then text you daily to offer deals to stay longer or tell you to strip beds and bring out garbage. The place was clean on the surface and dirty in detailed areas (I left this in the survey and they chose not to follow up). Drawers, dishes in cupboards and dressers all needed a wipe down before using. The place is likely going to be condemned for proximatey to the water which is likely the reason for all the disrepair. We spent 1 hour cleaning old bird poop (not new, it was hard) off the rails, chairs and deck. The deck boards are not really meant for bare feet. Kids had to put shoes on to avoid splinters. The couch sat really rough when we watched a movie. It sagged so bad they put plywood under the cushions. Having 2 bathrooms were great for a family. Both were clean. Both toilet seats were broke. Tried to tighten seat bolts, but they were stripped. Cabinets were missing multiple hardware/handles. We could not adjust the fridge temp. Upside, really cold beer. Downside, it froze all our vegetables for the week and we had to toss them. We stay in 6-8 VRBOs a year. Felt like this place was owned by a couple REALLY cheap attorneys!!
