November Break

Property was lovely, great location, kitchen well stocked. We had a great time. The only small issue we had was that we had to clean off all the outside furniture before we used it as it was very dirty. Other than that, property was perfect.

But, no one told us about the maintenance work on the exterior starting at 7am including ladder taps around our window. How about a heads up!! 🙁

Beach side

Nice property Close to the oceanfront and Mercers Pier. We enjoyed our family time there. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils and dishes etc to cook with. Outside lights did not work that weekend which was not great but it may have been because of a storm that passed through the week before. We shared with the real estate company that listed the house

Long weekend

Loved our quick long weekend. The beach is very busy, the weather and water were perfect! The pictures are very accurate! Loved having the 2 car garage! Big plus! Definitely bring beach chairs. Easy walk to the beach. The porch was very enjoyable. Our family was very comfortable. Working with Wrightsville Sands Realty staff, was great, they are very professional and wanted to make sure we had everything for our trip.

Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit is located very centrally. East walk to pier, grocery, beach and restaurants. It does need a deep clean however. The master shower was quite moldy. The kitchen is well stocked but most cookware needs to be replaced. I would stay here again if those areas were addressed.

Ok, so the location couldn't have been any better. The property was just steps from the beach, walkable to restaurants and main streets. Parking was great, right on the property. The property itself was nice, good size rooms and bathrooms. Nice size kitchen and well equipped. Pretty clean. There are some things that the owner or property manager need to fix though, like the lock to the entry door. From the outside, you couldn't lock the door unless you leave the key in the lock. That was very concerning. We had to leave the door unlocked every time we went out. There were no outside lights going up the stairs to the entry door or at the entry door. Pitch dark at night. And the bathroom had black mold in the shower. LOTS! If the owner/property manager would take care of these things, I would easily give this property 5 stars. It's really nice.

Beautiful home, great location, too many extra expenses.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful home but not enough for the price. If you want towel and sheets you need to pay an extra price and you need to make up your beds and tear them down after you're finished. We did not like this and how we didn't have any extra like... soaps, q-tips etc. things you always get. We come on vaca to get away from the work of everyday life. Paying extra for towels and sheets is absolutely ridiculous. We would love to stay here again but these things would need to change.

Girls’ Weekend

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The bedroom options were perfect for our foursome. The home was roomy enough to enjoy our time together. Some problems existed with the electric in the home, giving us trouble charging phones and using kitchen appliances. The bathrooms and bedrooms were not clean. Sheets and towels were supplied and left for us in plastic casing, so you know they were fresh—but it would have been nice to have a blanket in addition to the comforters. And we had to make the beds at the beginning and strip them in the end.

Great location, property needs some work.

This is a review for the second floor unit. Pros: Great location with easy walk to the beach. Unit was generally clean and spacious. Check in/out process was easy, with good instructions. Parking also a plus and the exterior of the property is very nice. Cons: The property needs maintenance. There was significant mold in the main bathroom shower ceiling and grout. Mold was also noted in the 1/2 bathroom. The door knobs/locks on the doors are worn and difficult to maneuver. The fan control in one bedroom is clearly broken. Patio furniture very worn and not maintained (didn’t use due to this). Kitchen materials (pot/pans, etc.) also rather worn. Bedroom pillows need replacing. We have stayed in several 4 to 5 star vrbos previously and this was unfortunately not that. Some of these concerns I noticed were also mentioned in previous reports. I hope they are rectified for future renters.
