Very nice house and stay

We really enjoyed the house and enjoyed our 33rd year on Oak Island. Only drawback is there was not bathroom upstairs and the outside shower could have used a lttile TLC. Other than that it was a great stay. We're renting again next May 2026. Can't wait!!!!

Lovely home on the beach

Lovely home for 2 empty-nesters, 2 adult "kids," and one elderly mom. The location is amazing, right on the beach. The weather was sunny but super windy (30 mph gusts) when we visited, so our time on the beach was a bit limited to the mornings before the wind picked up. We were still able to enjoy the view from the two big patio doors in the living area. Everything we could possibly need in kitchen equipment was provided. Nice selection of beach chairs and toys as well. The owners were very quick to respond to any questions. Be aware if anyone in your group has limited mobility that there are 13 steps up either the front or the back entries. The deck appears new and is very sturdy, but it was tough for Mom. The deck includes a nice rattan seating area as well as a built-in bar with two tall chairs, some adirondack chairs, and two rockers. The two upstairs rooms would be perfect for kids, but be aware of the open-backed stairs there, too. All in all a beautiful space for family time at the beach.

Beautiful, perfect location

The property is well maintained, and overall the descriptions are just right. Opted for the linen service and that was helpful. Enjoyed coffee on the deck overlooking the water. Loved being able to just walk up and over the private path of the dune to the water. Only drawback, I did not realize nor did it say anywhere that the front doors facing the ocean are locked and not able to be opened. To be fair, they are on sliders like any other glass door. Other than that, the space is perfectly comfortable for six adults and two kids. All sorts of wonderful toys and beach items as well. Highly recommend. Fantastic communication with the management company.

Shire is Beautiful earns the name

This is a second visit to the property and we love the location and the view. Just a few suggestions-- the sliders need some work-they stick and one did not have screens-so we could not enjoy the ocean sounds. We appreciate the linen service very much.

If only the A/C hadn’t stopped working…

This house was in the perfect location and was working well for our group, but unfortunately the A/C stopped working around noon the day before we were due to check out. We contacted the host, who contacted HVAC services but they were unable to get there until 8p that night. It got up to 86 degrees downstairs in the house, hotter upstairs (where our little kids would be sleeping) when we decided to drive home that night around 6p, as it was not possible to sleep in those conditions and we were concerned the issue may not be resolved that night. When we asked the host to refund the night we were unable to stay, they stopped responding to my messages. If the A/C incident followed by being ignored by the hosts hadn’t occurred, I would have recommended this house.

Beach house

The stay was great. The house was not maintained well and I had to contact VRBO immediately to help me get in. I cleaning out the bathroom drain myself because the person bringing batteries for the door lock that did not work when I got there did not know how to do that. There was no offer to get a plumber. The stay was great after that.
