Thank you so much for the kind review, Kristen! It truly means a lot to hear that this was the nicest place your family has stayed at on Oak Island. I’m really happy I could help make your stay smooth and enjoyable, it was a pleasure hosting you! I’d love to have you back anytime you’re in the area.
We had an amazing time at Mint 2 be! The house itself was IMMACULATE and was equipped with everything we needed and more! We enjoyed the pool during the day and in the evenings the hot tub was perfect! We were a short drive to Publix, coffee, restaurants and a very short walk to the beach. If I could give more than 5 stars I definitely would! We will be coming back!

Thank you so much for your amazing review, Rachel! I’m thrilled to hear you had such a great time at Mint 2 Be and that the home exceeded your expectations. It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed both the pool and hot tub, and that the location made everything so convenient.
Your kind words about the cleanliness and amenities mean a lot. I’d be absolutely delighted to host you again anytime!
This new beach home was a perfect 10 for a 3 night stay in February. The hot tub attached to the pool was excellent during this winter trip and you can see some ocean from the front door and windows. In the summer, you’ll have a *short* walk to the beach and we’re already considering coming back to enjoy an Oak Island summer trip. The home is spotless and we did not Want for anything. It’s all there! We would absolutely one back.
