I wish I could speak to the owner
I was traveling with my disabled parents. I checked on two separate occasions to make sure there was a working elevator and when we showed up, the elevator was not working. There was a major storm that was tracking directly towards Carolina Beach and I reached out to the management company to inquire about the severity of the storm. They told me it was nothing to worry about as it was just a little rain. That was not accurate at all if anyone had bothered to check the weather as I had. we waited for about 30 minutes to see if the elevator was going to be fixed prior to being transferred to another unit. The other unit did not have a clubhouse or workout facility and this was very important to me. Both my parents were looking forward to a hot tub and a sauna. I do understand that things happen Under the best of circumstances. I asked for the manager to contact me and she never did. I requested this on Sunday when we checked in and then I requested it again on Monday and was told to come to the office Tuesday around nine or 930. I did go to the office and it was very evident that they had a lot of water damage to deal with at their office. Out of all of my travels, I have never been given just one roll of toilet paper. When I asked for additional rolls, I was told to go buy some. Since I am paying a little more than $1000 for three nights, kindness should be expected.the only towels in the unit were small white bath towels. We were not given any pool towels or towels for the

We really enjoyed our stay. Condo offered plenty of space for our family of 5. Location is wonderful, beach isn’t overly crowded at all. Condo could use an update tho, just a bunch of small things like plumbing fixtures, shower curtains, pots and pans were on their last legs. But overall, a very nice place to stay. We would recommend

First time to Kure Beach
Awesome beachfront view . Beach a little narrow and the coquina rocks made swimming right in front tough. Condo was adequate size for 4 adults , a teen and a toddler . Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to prepare a few meals . Tile floor needed to be mopped better . Parking underneath the units allowed two cars but were very , very narrow for anything larger than a sedan . It was hard to load / unload or even park .

Location Jackpot
We loved the condo location. You could not asked to be any closer to the beach. The biggest plus is the beach is private to the condos so never crowded. The condo could use a few updates but overall it really was a wonderful spot. We would stay again.

1st stay in Kure
Pleasure Island is one of our favorite places but this was the 1st time staying in Kure Beach. We loved the location and the view and beach access was outstanding. The size of the unit was more than we needed but it was nice to have the extra wiggle room. Amenities were fine, it had most everything you needed. The lights, switches etc. were a little weird and sometimes didn’t work. The most disappointing thing was the cleanliness. The unit was not clean. Counters were sticky and bathrooms, especially the 2nd bathroom was not up to par. We usually clean a little when we arrive. We had to clean a lot. The sliding doors had not been cleaned, which was disappointing because that is the 1st impression of the view. We didn’t take advantage of the extra stuff that Ocean Dunes has to offer, but there are good options. We arrived the day after Ian came through so there was debris scattered around the parking lot and in other areas. That did not get picked up while we were there. Overall a nice place just needs a little more TLC.

Not a good place
Roaches, toilet seat in master was mismatched, mattress in master was disgusting, lamps didn’t work properly, master bedroom door locked on us and we couldn’t open...had to go through sliding glass door on deck and bugs prevented us from cooking in the unit at all: had to eat out🤮!

Great weekend trip
This was my first booking with VRBO and this property and it went very well. The condo was exactly as pictured, right on the ocean. The views were beautiful and peaceful. The condo was clean and well stocked with the essentials needed. We had a slight issue with parking when we arrived - someone from another unit had parked in such a way that getting to our space was difficult. The property manager had the other owner move their vehicle and all was fine. Quickly resolved! We had a great time and would definitely go back.
