Property was perfect for our family- the kids lived in the pool and hot tub, despite the cool weather! The kitchen was well appointed and we had everything we needed. Penny checked in on us via text to make sure everything was ok. Would stay again!
Penny was fantastic ! We had one small issue and it was resolved in a couple hours !! House was very clean , rooms were great and pool was amazing !! Also great location !!

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a kind review. You were a pleasure to work with; we hope you come back to visit soon. Have a great rest of your Summer!

Property was great. All together the whole extended family had 4 houses on Oak Island, even with the other 3 houses being giants in another tax bracket the little Resting Beach Face became the go to hang out in the afternoons. Pool was great, house was clean, and AC system not only kept cool but did a great job keeping beach humidity to a zero. Only thing we would change is not brining to much of our stuff to the beach, no need for extra grill, corn hole, and chairs, they are already downstairs in the storage room for you.Owners were great, look forward to staying again in the future.

Very nice beach house on the second rowPool was clean and had nice loungers and umbrellas Owner was easy to communicate with and gave me access to her personal phone during our stayThe beach access was close on both sides but we found out the access to the left was much nicer. And had a blue mat that was easier to roll our carts down each dayAdequate towels and beach towels were great Owner had added comfy fluffy throw blankets to each room and we were thrilled to have them to usePlenty of beach chairs and beach equipment was a big bonusFront porch has an ocean view and several nice rocking chairsWe would stay here again in the future

Of course the hot tub and heated saltwater pool were great, but the things that put this property at five stars for us were having lots and lots of beach gear and a wagon, and the host was just super responsive and accommodating.

The host was very responsive and helpful. The location is great. Easy access to the beach and a great restaurant within walking distance. The house is just as described. The hot tub and heated pool were perfect.

Nicole, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We hope to have you back on the island soon!
Penny
This was an incredible stay everything in the home was well thought out for a family and the communication with the host was top notch. TVs with Roku in every room and a few baby items like toilet seat high chair etc. Bath and beach towel in each room plus a cozy blanket for the bed. Everything was thought of !! It is very conveniently located to walk across the street to the beach and the pool, hot tub and outdoor shower were highlights. Grocery stores near by and the kitchen is fully equipped so we never even ate out. Absolutely will be back

Eddie, thank you for taking the time to leave such a kind review. OKI is calling, we would love to have you back on the island soon. Enjoy your Summer!
Penny
This house was phenomenal! The location is great and just a few houses down from a easy access beach ramp (there are only a handful of the ramps on the island) so this was a huge perk for rolling wagons and coolers! The host is an absolute delight, super communicative and very accommodating! Rooms were fantastic and had towels and linens for each. Each room has its own AC unit so everyone was comfortable the whole trip. The front porch was a great spot to sip coffee and hang out in the mornings or late evenings. The pool was a huge perk, super easy to set up the space for a day of splashing and fun. The hot tub was an awesome addition as well in the evenings or first thing in the morning. Lots of open space to hang out both inside and outside. Plenty of cookware and utensils in the kitchen. Large table to eat together at as well. Large sectional was nice to pile up on and watch movies on the rainy days. Location is super close to the Publix and most of the other places the island has to offer. Also a short distance from one of the piers as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the space. My family has been vacationing in Oak Island since I was a teen and this by far has been the best stay yet and was a great place to introduce my kiddo to Oak Island and continue the tradition. We will most definitely be returning in the future because this place has everything you could ask for in a vacation spot! Cannot rave about this spot enough! A true gem on Oak Island!
It was a nice place to enjoy the Beach with Family
Great experience we loved the pool!

Christy, thank you for the kind review. It was a pleasure working with you. We hope to see you again at Resting Beach Face of OKI. Enjoy the rest of your Summer!
Love the location! Easy and quick to get around. We probably stayed in the heated pool most of the weekend and took in the sun. Communications were prompt. Recommend Kia joes taco stand and Salt 64! Easy access to beach, we enjoyed a long walk.
