Great location and beautiful condo. Because we are seniors the stairs were difficult with luggage, etc.

Pleasant Stay

Great view, convenient to the Marina Restaurant. Rental decor was nice, my suggestion would be kitchen towels used to many paper towels. Gift bag was helpful provided necessities to start the vacation off without running to the store. I recommend this rental and would rent again.

Nice Location

Peaceful marina location with the nice views. Good walking, close to golf and grocery shopping. Short drives to Southport and Oak Island. Needs a thorough cleaning; cleaning service not adequate.

Beautiful Condo

Had a wonderful stay here in St. James. The condo was updated and had the most beautiful view of the marina. We felt safe in the neighborhood and didn’t feel the need to go out and explore much considering our place we stayed was so nice. Beach was very close and any times we had questions it was extremely easy to send a quick text to get an answer. Would love to stay here again in the future.

Beautiful space, perfect location

I had my 80 year old parents with me and the stairs were much steeper than I realized. 30 steps to get to the 3rd floor and while I loved the lay out and decor of the condo, the stairs were taxing to say the least. Everything else was great, great view and perfect location. Just keep the steps in mind if you are traveling with older people.

Your kind words mean a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable stay anytime!

Stay Away, False Advertising

This was an extreamly disappointing stay. From the start, communication from the host was poor. Golf and the indoor pool were supposed to be included but it wasnt. The beach club and outdoor pool were supposed to be included but they weren't. To top off the stay, we were watching tv in the living room one evening and the largest cocaroach we have ever seen ran across the floor. The host did nothing to accomodate us. False adverising and unclean. They provided 1 roll of toilet paper per person for 8 days, 1 roll of paper towel, 1 dish detergent pod and 2 laundry pods. They provided 1 hotel sized shampoo and 1 hotel sized conditioner in total and 1 towel per person. Save your money and book somewhere else. This host should not be in business because hospitality is not their calling.

The good and bad

The property itself was great and worked very well for our family. The location was excellent, the accommodations were comfortable, and we enjoyed our stay overall. The only significant issue we encountered was with cockroaches during our visit. Management responded promptly, arranged for treatment, and provided compensation, which we appreciated. Unfortunately, we continued to see roaches afterward, so the issue did impact our experience. If the pest issue is fully resolved, this would be a fantastic property and one we could easily recommend. We appreciated the responsiveness and professionalism of the management team throughout our stay.

Please know we are taking additional measures to ensure this problem is fully resolved for future guests. We appreciate your kind words about our team’s responsiveness and professionalism and hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.
