267 Seaside Villa - Steps to the beach!

Peaceful, quiet and laid back with a spectacular sunrise view. Could not navigate the bedroom tv menu but I’m sure I was doing something wrong. Living room tv was fine. Loved watching the rabbits and dolphins right off the balcony. Bring a good pair of binoculars to see dolphins better.

Great view. We would consider this property in the future.

We have stayed here three times, including through tropical storm Helene, and absolutely love it. This truly is one of the best views on the beach. From watching the wildlife, both people and animals, to watching the sunrise and waves. It's all memorable. And quite comfortable.

I would like to start this review by saying that reviews are tough because they are subjective. What may be perfect for somebody may be less-than-ideal for others, so it’s best to read each person’s experience and take it with a grain of salt. If you read my review and think, “those things wouldn’t bother me,” then this place would be a 5/5. The location is wonderful, the deck view is worth a million bucks, and you’re close to a lot of amenities. With that said, there are some things I have come to expect in VRBOs due to previous experiences, and these things just weren’t great for us, which is why I docked stars off my review. 1. Cleanliness was lacking in some areas. The shower floor was covered in pink and black mold and had someone else’s hair in the drain. When we inspected the sheets on the bed, someone else’s hair (multiple strands) was on the pillow cases. We stayed up later than usual to wash our sheets because there wasn’t a spare set to put on the bed. The pillows were so old and disgusting that we had to run to Belk to buy new ones. While at Belk, we also purchased new sheets and shower shoes so we could feel comfortable bathing and sleeping. It felt like the cleaning crew did a quick once-over of the entire place in between guests and didn’t really do a thorough job at all. In a time of COVID, monkey pox, and general hyper-awareness to hygeine, I was personally freaked out. 3. We didn’t have any basic necessities in our unit. When we have stayed at other places, there are generally things like dish soap, toilet paper, paper towels, etc, but this unit did not come with any of that. Other reviews had stated that the unit did come with that stuff, so we didn’t pack much. Imagine my surprise when we finally enter the unit after 12 hours on the road to find there isn’t any toilet paper. I don’t know about you, but after that long in the car, step 1 of vacation is going to the bathroom. There are also only two knives in the utensils drawer. I understand that some things shouldn’t be expected, but a roll of toilet paper definitely should be. So renters-come prepared with all of that stuff. Some quirks to note for future guests: -The smoke detector would go off every single time we opened the oven door while cooking. -the box spring is incredibly squeaky!! Overall it’s a good place and would fit two comfortably for a wonderful vacation.
