We have been coming to Kure Beach for about 15 years and have stayed in several different condos over that time. This condo is the cleanest, most comfortable and homey condo we have ever stayed in!! Views are remarkable!! Hope to stay here again next year!!

Beautiful location

The condo was situated in an ideal area for our family vacation. It felt wonderfully secluded, with the natural area adjacent, but was so close to fun excursions and activities. We truly appreciated having a clean, comfortable “home base” with everything we needed provided!

AAA..Awesome as always

Our fourth stay was great as usual. It has a very well stocked kitchen. Everything is well stocked. Couldn’t be any closer to the beach just as the listings say. We will be back again next year for sure.

Pleasure Island Paradise was phenomenal! The location is unmatched...ocean front, beautiful beach, beautiful scenery, and a short drive from the pier, resturants, and shopping! The pool was clean and well kept. Check in was flawless, the keypad with our own code was so easy to use and no fumbling to remember the code. The condo was well stocked with toiletries, towels, and kids stuff! We vacationed with a 1 yr old and a 6 year old, both had a great, safe time. The wildlife was wonderful. We spent every morning and every evening on the balcony. Our 6yo loved the high tide clock in the living room and was always telling us if it was high or low tide and when we needed to go look for shells and crabs. We highly recommend this spot to other beach goers! So much to do and see, we hope to come back next summer.

Paradise in Kure Beach

This is the best rental we have ever had! It is spotless, has luxury amenities, the most perfect beach decor, and the location is on the beach. I was able to nurse a leg injury while sitting on the deck to watch the waves. Colleen is a responsive hostess who has thought of every detail. We even weathered the storm in comfort! We have found our new favorite spot!!

Oceanfront

We were looking somewhere to celebrate our 31st anniversary that was easily accessible to the beach…we found it! You never needed to leave the deck to enjoy the beach, it was that close. The condo was very well equipped with everything you would ever need and more. Colleen was very responsive to a couple of issues that arose that were beyond her control. She drove 2 hours to replace a TV that wasn’t working. I couldn’t ask for more in her responsiveness! She is great!!

Unbelievably close to ocean

So just wow.... I have never stayed at a property that was so very well stocked with anything you could possibly need. The owners have made sure you should not need for anything. The property itself is unlike anything I have ever seen. A few times at high tide, I got splashed while sitting on the balcony. Walk out the door and take 10 steps and you are on the beach. It was just amazing. We had a few aggravations that we had were nothing the owners could do anything about. We had work happening above our bedroom that started at 730 each morning. And given the location, there wasnt much privacy on the balcony. Bit what an amazing week that was had by our family. Just amazing. Thank you so much for sharing thos beautiful home with us! We hope to be back

Family friendly

As a big family we truely felt at home away from home. It was the small details for me. Not having to pack our chairs or tent or beach toys on top of our other things was a major plus for me. The view was BEAUTIFUL we loved watching the sunrise and being near fort fisher to go take a walk. The coquina rocks were also a beauty. Thank you for everything Alex & Colleen!!

My kids and I had an amazing stay. Everything was perfect. The hosts truly make it feel just like home. I especially appreciated the little “extras” they had (like sugar, k-cups, and qtips) so nice to not have to run back to the store when we forgot something. Thank you so much to our gracious hosts! We will be back!

A perfect spot…

Honestly, even without the host’s thoughtful touches, this condo would’ve been amazing. The attention to detail is just a great bonus. You could not be closer to the ocean without being in the water. It’s a beautiful, quiet area perfect for taking a walk to enjoy nature.

The best place to stay in Kure Beach

My husband and I stayed here 11 years ago and it was great. The updates the owners have done are fabulous, they make sure to have everything you need to make your stay as comfortable as possible. They were very nice and timely with any questions i had. Will definitely be back. Hopefully just not so long this ti.e.

Relaxing

We needed a few days to just stop & recharge. Seeing the ocean and hearing the waves for a few days fit the bill. You really can’t get any closer to the water. The condo was just as described including all of the amenities and supplies. Pack your clothes and toothbrush and go!

Perfect getaway!

We loved staying here! The house itself is nicely decorated, updated kitchen and appliances. Perfect size for our family of two kids and a baby! Absolutely loved the location of this unit in particular, easy beach access and loved sitting on the porch watching the sunrise. Will never be this close to oceanfront again! Note that during high tide the beach directly in frontof the unit is not useable, but wider beach is very very short walk. The pool was also great too. This was stocked with everything we needed and it was so convenient having the chairs, boogie boards, and even sand toys there for our use. It was very quiet, couldn't hear neighbors. We barely left the unit and loved every second. Wish we could keep it our own little secret but it's too good not to share! Thank you for letting us stay and make memories.
