Excellent views and easy beach access

Walk to the beach as often as you like because of the easy and quick beach access. The views from the decks and the master bedroom were fantastic. Connie was very responsive when we asked questions regarding restaurant suggestions and amenities.

What a great place!

We had a great family vacation here. House, furnishings, beach access, sand toys, beach chairs, grill - games - you name it! We will return! We had to adjust the schedule a little but Connie was a pleasure to make it right.

Amazing week at Ocean Isle

Property was exactly as described and in remarkable condition despite a recent hurricane affecting the area. Just some lingering sand which is to be expected. Fabulous ocean views, comfortable and relaxing home, and plenty of beach chairs/toys for kids. We will definitely consider returning.

Amazing home, wonderful owners!

Absolutely LOVED staying at this beach house. The owners are WONDERFUL and extremely easy to work with. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests and their experience. The house in person looks just like the photos. Personally I don’t think the pictures do it justice. It’s in a very quiet and peaceful area of the island. This is easily one of my favorite beach houses we’ve ever stayed at. It’s a great home for families to stay, big or small. You can’t beat the views either! I truly believe you won’t regret staying here and will make a bunch of memories just like we did. We can’t wait to come back!!

First Cold Front of the Season

I just want to that Connie for allowing us to stay at her wonderful home. My family and I had such a great time. Even though a big chill came through during our stay we still had a great time. It was so nice to have toiletries and cleaners already at the home for us. It making packing so much easier. The kids loved swinging on the porch swings below the house. I loved being so close to the beach. The kids could just run back and forth. Since, it was chilly we headed to Wilmington to see the Fort Fisher Aquarium-the kids had a great time. And we also took them to Planet Fun-great place for the kids-Google it-it was a great way to keep the kids busy. We can't wait to go back again next year!

Just another day in paradise…

My family and I decided a few days at the beach were needed, sort of on a whim, and I starting searching. We’re tired of the hustle and bustle of the busy beaches so we rolled the dice and our Ocean Isle search landed us on “Whata Gift” and I can’t think of a better name for this little slice of heaven. The location is absolutely perfect and the views from inside and on the decks are stunning! The crow’s nest has a gorgeous view of the beach and the backside of the island. The house was immaculate is very well maintained. The beach accessories the hosts provide are a lifesaver when car space is limited. There was enough space for everyone to not be on top of one another and there were plenty of towels and wash cloths. The beds were comfy and the HVAC was nice and cool. The kitchen came fully stocked with everything you need to make full meals is up to date. The bathrooms are also renovated nicely. The space is utilized well and the entire space felt cozy and inviting. We are already looking to book again and we think we’ve found our new favorite beach spot. I’d recommend this place (and already have) to all of my friends looking for a relaxing getaway.

family vacation to the ocean

We had a vacation filled with so many wonderful memories. The location of the home was wonderful. We could see the ocean from our bed. We saw Dolphins playing one day. The house was perfect for us. The grandchildren were in the large bedroom upstairs and our three married children had rooms to themselves and we stayed in the master bedroom. Most of our time was spent on the beach. The grocery store was only 10 minutes away. We made many meals at the house and found everything we needed to do that. We were only an hour away from Myrtle Beach and Wilmington. There was a nice grill that we used and lots of beach toys that the children really enjoyed. There was a good set up for washing the sand off our feet and cleaning of the toys and the many shells the grandkids collected. We hired a photographer that was amazing and he suggested one hour before sunset. The sunrises and sunsets were almost unbelievable not to mention the starry nights. We enjoyed sitting on the decks in the morning with coffee and at night with wine. We almost felt as if it was our own private beach as we had it to ourselves so many times because of its location. We had told the kids it was a once in a lifetime vacation on us, but very early on they informed us that they would like us to rethink that Thank you Connie and Dylan for allowing us to visit. I will send you a family photo when we get them so you can see the smiles on our faces.

We love OIB. It is our favorite beach. This was our first trip this far down to this end of the island. it is a great location. Wide beach with less crowds and noise. not much traffic. Great view and right on the beach. Nice they had linens included and provided beach accessories. Owners were responsive and nice to work with. The house was clean, but it needs some repairs. The front door is severly warped from moisture and one morning we could not open it. It was had to shut and required extra force to get it to shut. There were several areas throghout the house, especially right in front of the doors off the kitchen, the bedroom off the kitchen and the deck off the bedroom above the kitchen that showed signs of some rotting in the subflooring / decking as there were soft spots in the floor where it would buckle when you stepped in the spot. There was also some visible water damage throughout the house and roof above the deck off the kitchen showed very visible signs of sagging and water damage. Overall nice place and great location. If they were to address these maintenance issues, it would be worth the price we paid.

Wonderful home on the beach

We used to bring our kids who are all adults now to Ocean Isle Beach when they were younger. We have never stayed on this end of Ocean Isle Beach but absolutely love it! The home is well-kept and well appropriated and offers ample deck space for meals outside in the sun or shade! The beds were comfy and kitchen well stocked! Having linens included was a plus!

Great location and house for multi family trip!

This was our family’s first time visiting OIB and we loved this rental property! The location next to the public access was incredibly convenient, and having porch options on either side of the house worked well to always have a shady, breezy spot no matter what time of day it was. The home is well-stocked and had plenty of supplies and amenities.
