Great ocean view! We had a great time and loved being able to walk on the boardwalk right onto the beach. We would definitely rent this condo again!

The condo was beautiful and matched the description and photos perfectly. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well appointed. You can tell that someone put a lot of thought into the decor. There were plenty of wooden hooks inside the front door for hanging beach towels and hats which was a nice touch. There is a large step in and out of the shower in the primary bedroom. Good to be aware of in case you have any mobility issues. The chairs on the balcony were pretty but uncomfortable with narrow seats. In order for more guests to be able to use that space, highly recommend replacing. The walk to the beach is easy and paths well maintained. The elevator worked great throughout our stay. We also enjoyed the beautiful pool!

Noticing the little details — right down to the hooks by the front door — tells us you really settled in, and we're glad the thought behind the space came through. It's great to hear the beds, the kitchen, and the easy walk to the beach all worked well, and that the pool was a highlight too. Thank you for the thoughtful notes on the balcony seating and the shower step; both have been shared with our team, and feedback like yours genuinely helps. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again!

Perfect location on IOP

Sandy Toes & Sun Kissed Nose

Our stay at Wild Dunes was absolutely wonderful. The condo was located in a great location and was exactly as advertised. Well equipped and very comfortable. Kitchen layout was perfect. Unsure why, but cookware and dishware needed to be cleaned prior to using. There was food residue on much of the cookware and the dishware had a greasy feel to it. We ran all items we planned to use through the dishwasher on the highest cleaning level prior to and after our use.

Convenient location

We loved how convenient this condo was to both the pool and beach. We have 2 young kids so that was important to us. The view was amazing and the condo had all of the basics that we needed for the week. However, we received warnings for leaving flip flops outside the door for a few minutes, and someone yelled at us for pulling into the parking garage without a pass (we just hadn’t put it on the dash yet, we did so as soon as we parked). These types of communications from the strict HOA made us feel a bit unwelcome. And I sent multiple messages in the week leading up via the app that went unanswered, which was concerning. Overall these were frustrating but wouldn’t prevent us from renting again in the future. Being able to order beach gear to be delivered to the condo was very convenient, too.

Enjoyed our stay!

Three adults stayed at the condo in October 2023. We enjoyed our stay. The pros were the fabulous ocean view, the location of the condo in IOP, the updated kitchen and washer and dryer. We loved that there are two bedrooms and two baths. The ocean was just a short walk away. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, etc. This would make it easy to cook if you wanted to. There is nothing stocked in the kitchen as far as condiments. No sugar, no salt and pepper, etc. it would be nice to have some condiments provided. The bed in the guest room was uncomfortable and the pillows provided for both bedrooms were just very flat. Thankfully the condo was ready at 4:00 and we could get in by then. Having to wait until 6:00 would have been very inconvenient. Construction was being done near the D building which meant there was constant noise when sitting on the beach. Can’t imagine actually living in the D building with all the noise. Thankfully the noise did not penetrate the A building. All in all we enjoyed our time at this condo.

Clean but needs updating

This rental was fabulous from the perspective of location, views and accessibility to the beach. We have been to IOP several times and this was one of the best locations we have stayed in. Given all that, this particular unit needs work. On the plus side it was very functional and clean. The seating area was comfortable and roomy for 2-4 people. The kitchen appears to have new appliances but the countertops and cabinets are showing their age. The master bedroom was comfortable and clean The biggest issue we had was the Master Bathroom. The shower is elevated approximately 1 foot above the floor. It is a weird layout. Getting out of the shower you have to step down from the slippery shower floor more than a typical step. If you have any accessibility issues this won't work for you. There is a musty smell coming from the shower (it is a 100% enclosed space) and you can see where the paint inside the shower is bubbling. Additionally, there are no towel racks or toilet paper holder in the master bathroom. The countertops and sinks need updating. I know we sound negative, but we did have a great weekend. Given some love and attention, this would be a great condo. We would return once the investments in updating the property have been completed.

Beautiful view/Great location

We stayed the week of Tropical Storm Debby. We enjoyed the clean and comfortable accommodations in the condo all week and the beautiful ocean views throughout the changing weather. Most days were not great beach days, but we made the most of it and enjoyed the lighter than average crowds. Our main dislike was the lack of a working elevator - due to something presumably storm-related. Communication wasn't the best about when/if it would be fixed - we got a txt after it had been broken down for a couple of days saying that it wouldn't be fixed until the next week. Later, once home, we got notice that we would get a small credit. During most of our stay, we had to trek up and down several flights of stairs each time we came and went, including when packing up to leave, which was not ideal. The stairwell was dirty with no ventilation, and it was not cleaned all week - we saw the same dead lizard and puddle of dirty leaves each time coming and going. Probably this is not a frequent problem for this property, but for us, it was pretty unpleasant. Other concerns included maintenance people entering the unit without knocking, and a pool gate out of service throughout the week, which required us to walk around the pool to an entrance farther away. Not a huge deal, but an inconvenience that wasn't fixed all week. Check in and check out were smooth, and parking was not a problem. We rented bikes and enjoyed riding them through the neighborhood one day when the weather allowed.
