It was a perfect week at the beach. The condo was clean with everything we needed to be comfortable. Right on the beach, we were able to sit outside and watch the waves roll in morning to night if we wanted to.

Everything was wonderful, especially looking through the windows during high tide and seeing just ocean. It was like being on a cruise ship although without the rocking. Fantastic view of stars at night as well. Great location.

This VRBO was perfect for our family vacation. Right on the ocean and in a quiet family area. Loved the size of the balcony! The unit was clean and spacious and felt like home for the week we stayed. Check in and check out were both quick and easy! Only down side, we would have liked updated pictures of the balcony... We picked this place for the size of it so our 2 year old could roam around out there. Unfortunately the deck boards were very old and weathered and some rusted nails were just breaking off and we couldn’t let him roam around out there. We did get a couple splinters in our feet, but we just made sure to wear sandals out there. The pools and playground were also a bonus when booking for our little guy! Nice to have those extras when you have a 2 year old!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location. Great time. Had a problem with the exterminators busting in unexpected while my daughter was alone in the condo, and we were on the beach. She was very upset and scared. Honestly, this should be done in between rentals. It was an invasion of privacy, plus, no one likes being exposed to fresh bug spray. We are there for fresh beach air. We come yearly to Kure, but we will not be back to Ocean Dunes due to this invasion.

Let’s start with the pros. Beach is gorgeous. Town is cute. Close to a very nice aquarium. Cons. Showed up on day one to find a used diaper under one of the beds. It’s hard to relax and enjoy a home once you start off like that. Contacted the rental company, Bryant Real Estate. They told me they’d use this as a training moment for their staff. After spending almost $3k for a vacation, I don’t want to be someone’s training moment. The condo is old. There was rust in the air vents, broken furniture left on the deck and in the parking area, the teflon pans are scratched and unusable. Some of the kitchen supplies are ancient and not clean. We had to wash everything prior to use. The decor is dated and broken on the walls. The headboards in the spare bedroom are pieces of wooden lattice with cloth wrapped around them. Very strange. The headboard in the master was stained. It’s clear to me that the owners are depending on Bryant Real Estate to maintain their investment and that Bryant Real Estate could care less. I doubt the owners have been there recently and it shows. Another issue with the rental company- We booked this rental in March for a July stay. I signed a rental contract. We had a conflict arise, as they sometimes do. I was encouraged to see that the condo had 3 different weeks available that would work better for us. The rental company refused to switch us to another open week due to me signing the contract. It was their contract. They could have made an amendment if we both agreed on it. But instead they refused and wouldn’t even return calls. My husband left 2 messages for the property manager, Morgan. She did not have the decency to return his call. Instead, she emailed me and told me they would not change our dates. We had to leave 2 days early despite paying for the full week. We weren’t asking for our money back. In fact, I was fine with paying a new processing fee. We were just asking to switch to any of the other open weeks. It could have been a simple fix. Be aware if renting this condo, Bryant Real Estate has little interest in customer service. I would never rent another property managed by Bryant Real Estate again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: We absolutely loved staying at the Gardner @ Ocean Dunes in Kure Beach. The location is great, the views were magnificent, boardwalk access next to unit. Beach was empty, and we set up right in front of unit every day, all beach gear was safe to leave for hours, and visible from deck. Unit was quiet, we didn't really hear the neighbors. Parking is coverered, includes a hose to rinse sand off. We felt very safe leaving our beach items in the 'car port' along with the top off the Jeep for our entire stay. The rental was very clean, had everything we needed in the kitchen, most items were new, bathrooms are roomy with nice counter space. Livingroom was roomy with 2 side chairs, an oversized chair that converts to a twin sleeper and a very comfy sofa sleeper. We used an extra set of sheets and covered them to add a little more protection from a toddler. Deck is large (we did get some splinters from it though), and accessible from livingroom & master. There wasn't a screendoor for the master, so listening to the ocean while sleeping wasn't possible. The livingroom screendoor was broken and maintenance was quick to try and repair it, unfortunately it needed replacing, hopefully future guests will have new screendoors. Other than the screendoors, the only negative was the washer/dryer, very old and due to age, didn't clean clothes or towels very well. Used one pool and it was very clean. We would have liked to do a morning workout in the fitness room, but it doesn't open until 9am. We did not have time to use the indoor pool or hot tub. WE LOVED OUR STAY AND WILL BE BACK NEXT YEAR!!!
