Reviews

Vacation Rental Guest, Amy

"Cliff was a great host! He was helpful with questions and recommendations from golf cart rentals to fine dining restaurants! Anything we asked he provided great answers!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Allison

"We had a wonderful stay! With 6 adults and 5 kids ranging from 2-7, there was plenty of room for everyone. The condo was exactly as described. We used the community pool every day and it was easy to go back and forth from the beach and pool. The Tiki Bar food and drinks at the pool were good too. With all the kids & things we did drive to the pool instead of walking, but it is walkable. We used the tennis courts and basketball nets too. We enjoyed having the back deck to hang out on and to watch the ducks & turtles. We ended up having great weather, but we did spend a morning inside at the Coastal Carolina Museum which the kids liked a lot. Plenty of good restaurants, donuts, bagels, ice cream a short distance away. Kids also had fun at the Towne Centre Park/playground & mini golf close by too. Highly recommend this stay!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Jacob

"This was our sixth year staying at Dune our Thing and using Cottage Vacations. It was also our sixth straight issue free year. Next year will be our seventh! Always a great week!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Hannah

"We really enjoyed our stay at this condo! It felt new, clean, and bright, had a good amount of living space and bedrooms, plus a great balcony overlooking a nice water feature with a glimpse of the ocean. The tennis courts and pool were nice amenities, and the beach is just a short walk away. Will definitely stay here again!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Madison

"We loved our stay. The condo met all of our needs and Cliff provided helpful instructions prior to our stay."

Vacation Rental Guest, Maria

"We were fortunate enough to book such a wonderful place for a last minute weekend trip. Everything about the condo was great- from the location, to the space inside, to the beautiful decor, to the fully stocked kitchen, to the breeze on the back deck at night! The tiki restaurant and pool were still open too which was a huge plus! Thanks for hosting us Cliff!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Susan

"The unit was beautifully appointed and true to the depiction on the listing. it was a very comfortable unit for my family. My grandchildren especially loved the lagoon with the turtles. Cliff was very responsive to questions before we arrived and during our stay. We had some difficulty with the front door not opening with the keypad and Cliff was quick to respond and assist in trouble shooting. We would definitely stay again!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Kelly

"We really enjoyed our time in this wonderful condo, with plenty of space for all 8 of us. It’s only a short walk to the beach, and we also brought our pickle ball rackets for the nearby courts. The condo itself has recently been updated and is well stocked with basic necessities. We’re thankful to have been able to come here and relax. ☺️"

Vacation Rental Guest, Viviana

"Loved the place!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Kelly

"We enjoyed our stay even though it was cut short by the coming hurricane. Cliff was great to communicate with. We had plenty of space for our four kids and my in-laws and it was within walking distance of the beach. We enjoyed the back porch, especially watching the sunset one night. We plan to come back and stay again. :)"

Vacation Rental Guest, Jacob

"This was our fourth year in a row at Dune our Thing and using Cottage Vacations to do so. I can't say enough good things about how smoothly our vacation has gone each and every year. We have already begun booking year 5! "

Vacation Rental Guest, Candie

"We really enjoyed our stay! Cliff was a great communicator and the condo was just as described!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Lizzie

"Large enough property for our family of 12 that no one was tripping over anyone. Great outside deck for evening and afternoon lunches. Two blocks to the beach and 3 blocks to the pool."

Vacation Rental Guest, Megan

"What a great condo! We loved having so much room to spread out, there was a table out on the patio we ate dinner at almost every night so we could watch the turtles down in the pond and watch the sunsets. There were a ton of beach toys and beach chairs. We loved how close to the beach we were! We booked the trip last minute but next time we come out to the island we will definitely rent a golf cart! Although the walk to the beach wasn’t bad at all! It was nice to have the pool and restaurant right on the beach, so when the kids got tired of the beach they could go to the pool and play there for a while. Just an all around great place and great vacation spot!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Shantell

"Hands down my favorite stay so far. The house layout was perfect. In ways that it provided us with plenty of individual privacy yet we were all right there together. There was plenty of games and entertainment in the home. Lots of beach toys! Perfect area the basketball court won the boys over. This place was really clean and beautiful. The pictures just don’t do it justice."

Vacation Rental Guest, Sergey

"Great host and place! Loved the location."

Vacation Rental Guest, Stephanie

"Perfect beach house for our group of two families with young kids. Everything was clean and fresh. Kitchen was fully stocked. The kids loved watching the turtles from the deck. We loved being able to use the pool at the beach club and then just head out to the beach. One thing we weren’t aware of about ocean isle is that we aren’t allowed to use our canopy on the beach, so we were grateful the rental had chairs and umbrellas for us to borrow, as well as other beach toys for the kids which was super nice. Cliff was so responsive and helpful. Would definitely recommend!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Jacob

"Low traffic location just off of the main road. Easy beach access and of course the access to the private pool/club. This was our third year in a row and we are planning our fourth. Just a perfect, affordable vacation rental!"

Vacation Rental Guest, John

"Thank you Cliff for a wonderful stay. Everything was as pictured. Clean house when we arrived. Great communication. We will be staying at one of your properties in the future! "

Vacation Rental Guest, Tamara

"Our villa was beautiful. It was very clean and had plenty of room for everyone. It had everything we needed for cooking, towels, beach supplies ect. We loved the back deck over looking the pond. We saw tons of turtles everyday. It was just a short golf cart ride to the pool and ocean. Will definitely be staying here again!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Karen

"We really enjoyed staying in this condo. Everything was very clean and well equipped. Kitchen had nice pots and pans etc. Loved the light bulbs outside and enjoyed the turtles so much. Fed them apples and strawberries. If I had to say anything negative it would be the couch. Maybe time for a new one.. Otherwise it was an awesome place to stay for 2 months to get out of Ohio’s cold weather!"

{Owner Response: "This sofa has been replaced with a new one."}

Vacation Rental Guest, Duane

"Great location and very nice place. Nice to sit out on the patio and watch the turtles. The host was very proactive in communication, responsive to my questions, and had great follow-up."

Vacation Rental Guest, Janie

"What a great place to stay!!! Cliff was so helpful, answered questions quickly and accurately. We loved having the beach gear, linens and beach towels provided with the unit. Great vacation spot. Definitely going back again."

Vacation Rental Guest, Lori

"Wonderful week at the villa! Unit is beautiful and so nice to have a bathroom for every bedroom! The unit was well stocked with everything we needed! We really enjoyed the Oceanside pool and beach access! We rented a golf cart which made it easy to get to the pool and beach! It was a great week for us all from ages 4 months to 81! Everyone had an awesome time! Highly recommend this property! Cliff is a great host and responded quickly to all our questions! Thanks Cliff for a great week!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Jacob

"A perfect vacation for the second straight year, soon to be three years as we have already begun the booking process for 2023. Cliff does a fantastic job making sure everything goes smoothly and Ocean Isle is a fantastic destination."

Vacation Rental Guest, Danielle

"Property was clean and very well stocked. We had everything we needed and more. Very close to the beach, we drove each day and it was perfect. Lot of beach toys for the little ones too. Would highly recommend and would stay again!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Rena

"Really liked the bright and well furnished unit. Very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed. Only one complaint. We couldn't see all of the tv as it was too big to be inside the cabinet and we did watch a lot of TV in Feb, in the evenings, sports etc. We would recommend this unit and would rent again. "

{Owner response: "This tv has been replaced with a larger more visible one."}

Vacation Rental Guest, Dorothy

"What a great vacation we had. The condo was very clean, great location and exactly as described. The beach chairs, umbrellas and beach cart where very useful and in great condition. Cliff was a wonderful host who was quick to respond and helpful with some island tips. We will be back."

Vacation Rental Guest, Kim

"Beautifully decorated and well stocked. Was nice to have bed linens and towels supplied for the stay. Spent a lot of time on the deck watching the turtles swim. Beach access was close by and the ocean front pool was a plus. We are making plans to come back next year."

Vacation Rental Guest, Jessica

"Everything was perfect! Highly recommend."

Vacation Rental Guest, Larry

"Would definitely stay at this condo again!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Abbey

"This condo was just perfect! Gorgeous updates and furnishing! Well stocked kitchen. Love the deck overlooking the pond. It worked perfectly for my in-laws who use a walker because the elevator goes from parking level to the entry and all the living space is one floor. It was clean, beautiful and darn near perfect. Very easy walk to the beach also. I loved that there was a bathroom for every bedroom also. If you are looking for a condo on the west end of the island this one is excellent. Loved everything about our stay and I would 100% stay again. The management was quick to communicate with and very helpful. We return to Ocean Isle at least twice a year and this is a property I would love to stay in again!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Anne

"Lovely accommodations. Would stay here again. Clean, bright and spacious."

Vacation Rental Guest, Chris

"Great location."

Vacation Rental Guest, McGee

"Everything you need and more. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. House is beautiful. Great for family gatherings. Close to everything. Bonus was elevator."

Vacation Rental Guest, Denell

"This home is very nice with amenities. It was perfect for our family vacation. The owner was quick in communication."

Vacation Rental Guest, Bri

"This house is everything the listing shows. It was so nice that each bedroom had its own bathroom. The walk to the beach was short and easy! The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed. Cliff, the host was fantastic and very helpful. This house would be ideal for a longer stay than just 2 nights. They do not provide any basic items such as garbage bags, toilet paper, soaps, dishwasher pods or basic cleaning supplies. Since we travelled here from Texas, that was a bit harder for us. There were quite a few tasks on the checkout process, so be sure to plan accordingly!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Brian

"The house and the location was great. We really enjoyed it."

Vacation Rental Guest, Lisa

"We had a great stay at “Dune our Thing”! The condo was exactly as advertised and everything seemed to have been thought of. The chairs, umbrellas and beach cart were crucial and saved us tons of packing space - same for the pack’n’play and high chair! This was the perfect spot for our family vacation!!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Jacob

"Thank you for sharing your home with us. We had a wonderful time sharing in our grandkids first family vacation. You thought of everything. Everytime we wished we had brought something we found it in your wonderful home. Discovering the sign in the master bedroom made it feel even more like home!"

Vacation Rental Guest, April

"Thank you for opening your home. My parents and my younger brother and his family came to visit. We only had a couple of days to make memories here but we did! All the touches that you put into your home are wonderful! Thank you again for the opportunity, the memories made will be cherished for years to come. We all know that this will probably be our last trip with my parents but we were thrilled with our choice of your home!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Sarah

"This was a great stay! We had two couples, two individuals, and a 15 month old so there was plenty of space for us spread out and having 4 bathrooms was great. We did need to bring our own sheets, some paper products, and some kitchen items but there are several grocery stores nearby. We loved all the beach items available (chairs, wagon, sand toys, etc.) and walked to both the beach and the beach club during our stay. It was also great having access to a pack n play and high chair during our stay, as well as a washer and dryer with our 15 month old. Cliff provided lots of excellent local tips, communicated regularly, and was very accommodating. We would love to return someday!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Jacob

"Great stay, and with a very responsive host. The walk to the beach wasn't bad at all, and the area around the condo was not busy with cars. Overall a great experience!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Lori

"Thank you so much for opening your beach home to our families! We have enjoyed our stay in your beautiful home. The weather was unseasonably chilly for a bit but we made the best of it with a little whiffle ball on the tennis courts! Our families have vacationed together at Memorial Day for 15 years and we have always enjoyed Ocean Isle Beach. Thanks for allowing us to stay and continue making memories! "

Vacation Rental Guest, Indiya

"Thank you so much for letting us enjoy your beautiful beach house. This was our first family vacation with most of our family being here! The children really liked watching the turtles in the pond out back. We made a lot of memories on this vacation! Thanks again."

Vacation Rental Guest, Sue

"Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and allowing us to enjoy a post Covid vacation with our children and grand children. We all enjoyed our stay!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Glenda

"Beautiful Condo. Thank you for sharing your beach home! Wonderful trip!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Jayne

"Thank you for the starter kit and having us here!"

Vacation Rental Guest

"Thank you for everything- the house was beautiful!"

Vacation Rental Guest, April

"We had such an enjoyable time. The little touches were great, towels were plentiful and it was a wonderful experience for us all."

Vacation Rental Guest, Justen

"Cliff was absolutely wonderful. He responded so quickly when we texted with any questions or concerns. I would very much recommend using his services. The description was very accurate and the amenities were very nice. The lodging was clean and safe for children. Once again I would recommend using Cliff’s properties."

Vacation Rental Guest, Susan

"Lovely house in a great location within walking distance to the beach. The house was very well equipped with all necessary kitchen accessories, bath towels, linens, beach towels, etc. Even came with a beach wagon, beach chairs and two umbrellas which were essential for the beach. We enjoyed having an en suite bathroom for every bedroom, which made showering at end of the beach day faster and more comfortable for everyone. Communication with the host was always fast and he responded immediately to any questions/concerns. Highly recommend, and would absolutely stay here again if we are in the area."

Vacation Rental Guest, Indiya

"Great host great communication beautiful home in a wonderful area great experience!!!"
