We usually stay in second-row beach houses, so staying right on the beach was an upgrade in itself. But the house made it even better — several sitting areas with comfortable furniture and several unexpected little extras. The mattresses were firm and comfortable, and the kitchen was well appointed. And the view from the back porch facing the ocean — that was spectacular!
Beautiful home with an abundance of available amenities from a well stocked kitchen to excellent seating on two large decks! Amazing views from sunrise to sunset. It was a wonderful stay!
We had the best time! We took our boat and was able to rent a boat slip across the road so we had the best of both worlds! We also were able to take our dogs which was a plus for me! Very dog friendly family oriented vacation and was one for the record books! Thank you for sharing your home with us! We had great communication with the host as well.
We don’t have enough great things to say about our stay at Belle Esprit! It truly exceeded our expectations — spotless, cozy, and stocked with every cooking gadget we could possibly need. The beach and views were absolutely spectacular!Our only small complaint was that we couldn’t watch our hometown team, the Cleveland Guardians, for one of the games since there were no local TV channels available. Otherwise, a perfect stay —already booked for next year, we can’t wait to come back!
Oak Island is the perfect place to enjoy a family vacation
The house location is perfect. Access and convenience to the beach could not have been better. The surf was rough at times but the weather couldn't have been more perfect. The house is beautiful, well appointed and decorated and perfect for families to enjoy each other's company at the beach. Oak Island reminds me of North Carolina beaches from years ago. I know changeover day is hectic for the cleaning folks but I was a little disappointed that the house had not been cleaned more thoroughly. The kitchen was very well stocked with cooking utensils, pots and pans and was perfect for family dinners. The upper deck was a great space to enjoy the beach in the evenings. Overall, the property was excellent and I would not hesitate to return in future years.
We throughly enjoyed our stay. The beds are very comfortable, the house is gorgeous, and had everything we needed. One of the best rental homes I’ve stayed at on Oak Island!
Belle Esprit offered amazing views of sunrises, sunsets and the beautiful Atlantic! The house was well equipped and the property managers were responsive!
We loved our stay at the beach. The house was clean and there was plenty of room for 7 people. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals. There was great shelling right outside on the beach. Our communication with the rental company was easy. We all had a great time and we were very comfortable. The only thing I would say is that there are a lot of stairs outside and a spiral staircase inside. If anyone in your party has trouble with stairs be aware that could potentially be an issue.

Belle Esprit is a Dream Stay on Oak Island
We had an amazing stay at Belle Esprit on Oak Island! The property was absolutely lovely — clean, beautifully decorated in a nautical farmhouse style, and perfectly set up for our girls’ trip with 10 ladies. Being oceanfront made the experience even more special — waking up to the sound of the waves and sipping coffee with that view was unforgettable.
We loved gathering in the spacious living area to watch a movie, and the large dining table made it easy for all of us to enjoy meals together. We also took full advantage of the grill for a fun cookout night. A thoughtful touch was the delicious granola left for us as a welcome gift — such a sweet surprise!
Overall, I highly recommend Belle Esprit. It’s the perfect blend of comfort, style, and unbeatable location. We’re already talking about coming back!
The location is wonderful. The bedrooms in the front of the house on the middle floor could use some updating and window cleaning. Perhaps a check on hand soap in the bathrooms. And an additional paper towels. Generally, check in is 3 and check out is 11. I thought a check in at 4, and check out at 10 is a bit late and early. Maybe if you could have 1 at the standard check in/out time but not both. Overall we really enjoyed the house and it was great to a nice home that was dog friendly. Thank you for a great stay. When we come backTo Oak Island we would consider this property again!
