This house was perfect for our spring break getaway. It is sooo close to the beach! The view from the deck and the dining table is incredible. Great spot for us and we loved being able to bring our dog.

Great location. Mattresses and pillows need upgrading. The seating area for the TV needs a better arrangement for comfortable TV viewing by more than two people.
The garbage bins are confusing. The bin that is marked "trash only" was not emptied by the collection truck. Perhaps that is why an overflowing bin remained against the house when we arrived: it was filled with trash, but appeared to be labeled recycling. In short, neither the trash nor the recycling was collected.

We have rented the house a couple of times now due to its accommodating, cozy atmosphere for family. Very well equipped with almost everything you need and who can beat The View!! Mariah was absolutely amazing through our stay and very helpful keeping in good communications with us through our trip we can't wait to come back next year! Thank you!

The house was in a great location and accommodated our group perfectly. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Furniture and beds were comfortable. Best part was the great view out of the dining room window. House is in need of a few repairs but overall was a wonderful stay.

My favorite time was spending mornings on the deck, listening to the waves, and watching the pelicans fly overhead. Beautiful.

Comfortable oceanfront home for a family of 6. Good location for an active family that enjoys biking , paddle boarding and beach walks daily. There were minor issues with the home that the property manager quickly got resolved for us.

Amazing location, great customer service
The house is clean and comfortable. It's showing bits of wear and tear here and there, but it's easy to overlook those minor things when you have an amazing location with stunning views.
We weren't expecting to sign a separate rental contract or be required to purchase insurance or put up a refundable deposit; we haven't experienced that with any of our other several Vrbo rentals. Not a major deal, just unexpected.
Besides the location and views, what made this a 5-star experience was Mariah, the on-island property manager. When the TV didn't work, she and Michael immediately showed up and they actually set us up with Roku for the duration of the stay. That exceeded our expectations. Mariah and Carissa ensured that our stay went well.

Wonderful beach-front property in close proximity to stores and restaurants. The home was so clean and cozy, and communication with property manager, Mariah, was a breeze! Our favorite moments were enjoying morning coffee on the porch to watch the sunrise. We enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again soon.

Serendipity is a great home for a family vacation on the beach. The large window by the dining room table is the perfect vantage point to enjoy the view of the ocean and beach. The house was very clean and comfortable, although one of the queen beds upstairs seemed to sag in the middle. The king bed downstairs was quite comfortable and the house has a great layout. It was nice to be able to walk to a close convenience store and to enjoy not only the beach, but a lovely walk up 9th street to a foot bridge leading across the marsh. We all had a great time in Serendipity and I would recommend it to others.

We had an excellent vacation. The house was perfect and well stocked with everything we needed. The sunrise and sunsets on the beach were picturesque. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood, just steps from the beach. This is the best beach for walking during low tide since it is very flat and wide. The Oak Island local businesses were always friendly and accommodating. Thank you for a much needed restful end of summer vacation

We had an amazing vacation! The house was so comfortable and accommodating. There was plenty of room for our family of 7. The owners provided everything that we needed for the house and a booklet of great info for stuff to do around the island. The access to the beach was right behind the house. We had an amazing vacation, and would absolutely love staying at this house again!! Thank you 😊

Great location for our family. Enjoyed our stay. The room size/ kitchen items were as detailed in rent summary. The house needs updates to kitchen , paint, and more seating in living room. The three bedroom is great for family stay. The dining room table provides outstanding view of beach/ocean. Difficulty in beach access especially for mobility issues. Very respectful owners! Oak Island has become our second home! Hopefully we can rent again soon.

The house was centrally located. Nice views. Could use some updates. We had lots of trouble with our lock on the front door but overall a very nice place. If you are with a traveling partner that has mobility issues the huge sand dune in front of most of the properties could be an issue ,however the walkway is close to this property . We loved having a gas grill at our disposal
As well

This house is all about location! It was perfectly set up on the beach and we couldn’t of asked for more with that! Maybe in the details it needs to state have to walk over the dunes at 8 months pregnant wish there was a rope/steps or something to hold on too while packing our beach stuff! There also should be more toiletries “toilet paper” available for if you run out as we did! Thanks for the stay!

Wonderful!
From check in to check out, it was a wonderful experience! The house was clean and comfortable. I’ve been to many rentals that “provide basics” such as TP, paper towels, etc. I’ve NEVER rented a place that provided such quality products! I always bring a roll of each with me and was please to be able to leave my quality products for the next guest as the owner had provided such good stuff for us! For me, it was the little touches that really made this place special. From the laundry hampers, the clothes hangers in the closets, couch blanket, hand soap, etc it truly felt like we had moved to the beach for a week instead of renting a place! This was our first trip as a young couple and it was everything and more we could have wanted! We really enjoyed our meals at the dining room table over looking the ocean through the huge window with no obstructions. Most of our indoor time was spent at that table! We saw a dolphin swim by not once but twice during our week visit!!! Our dogs throughly enjoyed the long walks on the beach and Oak Island is the epitome of dog friendly!! If you’re looking for a more laid back, not overly crowded, beach trip I highly recommend this house and Oak Island!!
