This was a little slice of heaven. The screened in porch in the back was wonderful. The house was very clean and comfortable. The location was right near every place we wanted to go. We also appreciated the quick response to our few questions. It was a great place, thank you!

Serenity by the Sea: A Beach House Haven
The beach house was beautifully decorated and impeccably maintained. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the living spaces were perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun.

Took my wife for her 50th birthday. This was a great place to stay. Place was clean and in a quiet neighborhood. Bed was very comfortable. I recommend this rental to anyone wanting to go to Oak Island for vacation.

Nice Home
This is a very nice home with a quiet neighborhood. If you don’t mind the distance from the beach, then I recommend this home.
This adorable house was a wonderful place to stay for our vacation. It was very clean and had all the needed items to prepare meals. Check in and check out processes were very easy and clearly defined. Will definitely plan to return in the future.

Great Location
The home is in a great location—tucked away in a quiet neighborhood and just a short 5-minute drive to beach access, which we really enjoyed. Communication with Guest Services was responsive and appreciated. That said, there were a few details around cleanliness and amenities that didn’t quite meet the standard we’ve experienced with other stays. With a little more attention in those areas, this could be a truly great rental.

Beautiful and very comfortable home. Close to beach, stores and restaurants. Loved the quietness of the west end of Oak Island. Very comfy bed and furniture. Loved the screened in back porch. Well stocked kitchen with everything needed for home cooked meals.
We’ll definitely stay here again if available. It was one of our favorites.
