Winter Visit

My husband and I were visiting family who live in Carolina Shores and were happy to find this wonderful one bedroom condo on the beach in Ocean Isle. The Condo was very clean and just steps away from the ocean and 12 minutes to Carolina Shores and family. A great stay!

Perfect Getaway

Clean, cute, cozy, convenient...wish I could rate this ten stars. This is our third year spending Thanksgiving at OIB, first year staying at SIYP. The king bed was super comfy, whirlpool tub was very relaxing. I prepared our entire Thanksgiving meal in the well stocked kitchen while viewing the ocean. So peaceful and relaxing. We fell in love with this condo and have already booked for next year, can't wait to return.

The Perfect Beach Getaway

The location of this property can't be beat. Perfect beach and ocean view from the balcony and 10 steps to the pool. This is in the hotspot of activities like mini golf, arcades, ice cream, restaurants and more. My wife and I brought our 2 toddlers and the size of the unit was perfect. I will definitely stay here again.

Don’t hesitate…book this place!

We had an amazing time in OIB and this condo was the perfect location! Steps away from the beach and pool. The space was bigger than what I had thought from the pictures and the extra beach equipment in the storage really helped make this this best place we have stayed in on the east coast. Definitely will be returning!

About the host

Hosted by Francie Dunlap

I'm a former homeschool mom who just moved off the farm into a neighborhood with a pool in Charlotte. Former research biochemist, currently a website designer and food truck leasing business owner.

I also rent out a condo at Sugar Mountain, NC (vrbo.com/2060546)

I'm a neat, organized guest and host. Not a picky eater, love new experiences!

Why they chose this property

LOVE THE BEACH! I used to rent out a couple condos in Gulf Shores, Alabama that were in my family for 20+ years. I sold those and bought this one because it's closer to home.

What makes this property unique

The town of Ocean Isle Beach is the best little ocean town in the south! My condo is right next to everything I want to do, and the people are wonderful! You can be as active or relaxed as you want here.
I <3 OIB!
