We absolutely loved this cozy little space. It was perfect for the two of us celebrating our anniversary for the weekend. Location was amazing and it was super clean! My husband told me to mark it as a *favorite* so we can come back again soon!

Beautiful Clean Studio
This studio is perfect! It is spacious, clean and so very comfortable!! The bed was comfortable too so that was a major plus. A short distance to the beach and stores and restaurants. We’re so glad we found this place and highly recommend. We had a wonderful time!
The property was everything it promised and more. I had a few extra requests and the owner was very accommodating.
If you want a quiet, clean, beautiful place to stay in Oak Island, I recommend this property highly .
Great spot to stay. The short walk to the beach was .5 mile. That needs to be listed online. The only other issue was no hot water in kitchen sink. Bathroom was fine. We loved the coziness and cleanliness. A very quiet area and convenient to many of things on the island.
It was overall really nice. The place is cute, the bathroom especially was clean. The contact person was good about communicating. It just had a weird scent that came home with us. I would not even call it bad. Just...odd. I am really sensitive to that so maybe it would not be as strong or bothersome for other people. Honestly, even despite the odd scent I might stay again.
We had a lovely time! The place was perfect for our anniversary trip. Unfortunately, Hurricane Helene was hitting and our area had tornado warnings. It would have been nice to have had a safe place indicated and evacuation routes. We did not receive any contact from a manager to ensure that we were ok. Also, no light was on for the home and no house number for us to see when we arrived in the dark. Other than those things, the home was awesome.
