You can see the ocean from all the windows/doors on the back of the unit. The only issue was that the elevator did not stop on the second floor and older visitors would have difficulty walking up the stairs, especially with luggage or groceries. ##### Jan S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kayla S.

My only suggestion might be to get a bigger water heater. We take really quick showers and always ran out of hot water.

However, no basic cable service and only one TV which was located in the living room. The large bedroom didn’t even have a TV. Disappointing considering the amount charged. ##### Tamara K. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Heather G. Jul 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Overall Great Vacation This is our third visit to Oak Island. We love the area and the slow pace. This condo was a great location near The Point, very clean, nicely updated, kitchen had all the supplies, loved the balcony/tall chairs with a view, and an outdoor closet stocked with six beach chairs, an umbrella, and wagon. The beds were comfortable, too. We would have loved it more if there were televisions in the bedrooms for multi family use. We would have liked to have control of the thermostat. It was a digital Google type with remote access and I woke two nights to being overly hot to find the thermostat turned up. There are labels everywhere, some helpful, but many feeling like micro-managing. They have it posted asking it to stay set above 72 and that didn't fit with hot flashing, a four month old, and a daughter with migraines. Having to ask for approval for an additional fur baby, due to a sitter canceling last minute, our pet fee was doubled and we had already paid a damage fee into our bill in addition to pet fees. All total this was the most expensive rental we have had in 20 years of traveling.We left with no damage, all checklist items complete, and I swept multiple times through the week to lessen cleaning needs. ##### Heather G.
