Great Property

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a fabulous week at Archer. Although the interior is a bit older, it was clean and super functional. The king bed in the master was amazingly comfortable. The view from the top deck is spectacular and the overall location can't be beat.

This was a property that needs work. There was black mold in the master bedroom. The ac did not work upstairs- which wouldn’t have been an issue if we were informed. It was a real treat to walk out of the shower and there is a ac repair man in the main bedroom. Once again we were not informed. There were ants everywhere! And I mean everywhere. There were two roaches upstairs - alive. Unit has a good location but not much to offer other than that. Definitely not worth the money whatsoever.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay was interesting. The rental is in a great location; however, a big bush blocks most of the view of the ocean. The view from the master is great! It was clean; however, there are multiple maintenance issues...warped doors, torn vinyl flooring, lights that flicker, a stove element that caught fire (while cooking dinner), a towel rack that fell off the wall, air filter had not been changed in a LONG time, dryer filter needs cleaning (down in the opening),and a strip of veneer that fell off the bar. There was no grill (fine because there was no ground to place one. Grounds need clearing). Reported everything to the rental company. We made the best of it and had a good time. Love the check-in/check-out process! Love the parking availability.

Beautiful location on the beach!

Being on the beach was the best! The view from the top deck is wonderful. Bottom deck is a little blocked by shrubs. The location was perfect. I liked the furniture covers that housekeeping put on, it helped me feel at ease. My friend left a cable and Brian, in housekeeping, was very helpful: went over immediately, got the cable and mailed it only asking for shipping charges. Thanks, Brian. The blinds in master bedroom broke, but the maintenance person came right over and rigged them as best as he can, still a two foot stream of light came in. I'm sure the owner will order new ones. The beds were comfortable and there were ample pots and pans, blender and essentials. Carpets were recently cleaned. Old, but not stained or dirty. Suggest that the owner replace the first floor bathroom doors veneer is peeling apart-a cheap and easy fix. Also, the single plastic table on the patio is so unstable. A couple of cheap tables would really help also. Finally, fix the outdoor shower. A few boards nailed up would do the trick. Trying to be helpful with my suggestions, because it is a lovely place and location. These little fixes would make it perfect.

Great location - run down property

The location was great - fantastic views and right on the beach. The layout with two floors was also super lots of space for a family. But the property is run down. There are stains and holes in the ceilings, there is rust on the AC vents, the bathrooms have stains and mold. The doors have splintered and torn up wood and the shag pile carpet throughout looks dirty. The table on the lower deck has stains on it. The handrails were filthy. We have used VRBO for maybe 10 years now and this place was the most rundown we have ever encountered.. We did have an issue with the AC one night and IntraCoastal were great about sending a guy round right away and he fixed it. But overall I think this property needs to be renovated by the owner before it gets back on the rental market.

No freezer ice trays, all fridge door trays missing/unusable, 3 towel racks fell off, door panels peeling, broken blinds, glass table top unfastened, etc. Clearly milking it, nobody cares about this place.

The house dies not have its own beach access, but the public access is next to the house. The house itself needs updating. Some carpets are stained. Some living room furniture is broken. But this would be a great place for a family because it’s not too pristine. Love-worn is what my grandma would have called it. A nice place overall for the price.

Fantastic location and views

The location was amazing, the deck space was lovely. I loved enjoying the views from all around the house. The very dated furniture and bedding wasn't so bad, I get it, you're paying for location and views. However the busted up interior doors and shape of the bathrooms was hard to get past. It would be an easy fix to replace the damaged interior doors. The management company was great. They didn't send a door code in the email but when I called they were very helpful and maintence came over right away to help.

Urgent checks on the property needed

The property, its location close to the pier, and the three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and large living room are outstanding, nothing could have been better for our stay of 4 adults and 2 kids. However, given the weekly rate, customers assume that the property is in principle in good shape. Details as shown below may indicate that there is no regular check and maintenance on this property - in particular the lack of proper deck furniture was very disappointing. 1) Outdoor furniture is inadequate and urgently needs replacement. 4 metal chairs were broken/rusty and could not be used, and two more plastic chairs were broken. Our family of 4 adults and 2 kids could only use 3 chairs to dine and relax on the deck, two of them uncomfortable plastic chairs. 2) Table on the deck is shaky and some cheap plastic, it is not suitable for having meals on the deck. 3) Outdoor electric outlet is a big safety hazard, the outlet is broken and electric wires are exposed - we were worried about our kids touching it. 4) Kitchen faucet needs to be fixed. 5) Sinks in bathrooms are partially clogged. 6) Fridge door shelves were missing, one broken piece was in the waste, and another broken piece in a spare room - indicating that someone was aware of it but did not initiate replacements.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property is outdated but everything we needed was there. I was disappointed with the inability to open the blinds all the way in the upstairs master where the beautiful view is. Also, the tarp on the upstairs deck is very cumbersome and frankly somewhat of a liability, since it's easy to trip over it when going out on the upstairs deck.

Broken, very dirty, not maintained, tree blocks ocean view

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Archer has NOT been maintained and everything in it is either broken or on the verge of breaking. From the decor, it looks like it was last furnished in the 1970s. We had- splintered doors, filthy furniture and carpets, broken A/C, broken washing machine, broken kitchen faucet, moldy shower curtains, broken showerhead, broken bedroom blinds, non functioning electrical outlets, dishwasher with misaligned door that prevents its proper use, broken chair, ocean view blocked by tree. This unit was a huge disappointment and greatly spoiled our 2 weeks there. Intracoastal Realty should be ashamed to rent this place. We have used Intracoastal for about 10 years and expect them to only offer high level places. We are very disappointed.
Response from VrboOwner on 10 May 2022
Thank you for leaving me your feedback. I am sorry you experience issues during your stay. I personally spoke to you on the phone and every issue was address except the view blocked by the tree which is a Town of Wrightsville Beach protected area and cannot be trimmed or removed as it is on the ocean dunes. We did refund you a portion of your rental for the inconvenience of us having to address these issues while you were in the unit. I hope that you come back in the future and try us again.
