Who doesn't love Ocean Dunes, with it's full compliment of recreational activities and decks fronting right on the beautiful Atlantic Ocean.

There is a round dining table with seating for four and two barstools close by so everyone can enjoy the lively conversation or a few fish tales.

Overall we enjoyed our stay. Great location and great access to the beach.
The apartment could use some refreshing : Pots/pans mismatched - mismatch of silverware, Curtains/Carpet are worn and could use replacing - Also perhaps update the dining room table.

The location was great!! You are right on the beach and away from the restaurants so not crowded. Restaurants are 10 to 15 minute drive to Kure Beach Pier and Carolina Beach respectively. Property needs new flooring in the bedrooms and bunk bed mattresses were not comfortable.

April - Great to hear that you enjoyed your getaway at Surfrider! The large ocean front deck makes for any length of stay the perfect one! Some may not even want to leave after experiencing the the gorgeous Carolina sunrises from the deck! You are correct! This property is close to Ft. Fisher, but also close to our beautiful aquarium and the ferry that takes you to old historic Southport! Thank you for choosing Surfrider for your beach getaway! Looking forward to your next trip to paradise!

Rocky stay
Being right at the waters edge was breathtaking and we got to witness sea turtles hatch right off our balcony at dusk. The furniture could use some updating but it wasn’t a problem. The only reason we would not rent here again is because of all the large jagged rocks in and around the water. My husband and friend love to body surf and they were bloody and bruised by the time we left so I wouldn’t consider it to be a good place to swim.

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your honest assessment of the property's location and the challenges you encountered during your stay. Your experience with the rocky conditions and its impact on water activities is valuable information for future guests. We hope you had an otherwise pleasant stay and are glad you were able to witness the remarkable sea turtle hatchlings. We appreciate your candid review and will use it to enhance our offerings.
We absolutely loved our stay! The condo was clean and the views from the deck were amazing. We did have to reach out to the property manager after hours regarding an issue with the refrigerator and garbage disposal. Jason came to the rescue and fixed everything so quickly for a late night call on our first evening! As I understood it, he had to drive quite a ways to get to us since he generally served the Wrightsville beach area. But we were so grateful for his help and he was so kind! Would definitely stay here again.

Not bad
Great view and location, most amenities were good and worked. We couldn't get the TVs to work. The carpet was pretty gross and since we had a little one with us who spends a lot of time on the ground that wasn't ideal. The room smelled like cigarettes too. The unit was very bare bones, not much thought is put into it compared to other stays. The beds had very thin blankets, there's no extra soap, complimentary shampoo/conditioner, laundry soap, etc. For the size, it was more affordable so i suppose I expected it wouldn't be top notch but still would have been nice for it to feel a little cleaner.
Great location and view though and the king bed was comfy!

Reviewer Comments:
This was a wonderful location. The rental needs some updates regarding electrical and windows. Maintenance spent a great deal of time in our unit repairing lighting and ceiling fan issues. Anything we plugged in the outlets would become hot or spark when unplugging which was concerning. There was also an issue with the front kitchen window not closing. Sheet sets that were delivered to the unit were the wrong size. Additionally, the elevator was filthy. It was loaded with trash the entire week. This was problematic since we had a disabled person with our group requiring use of the elevator regularly. This all being said, any issues brought to the management company's attention were immediately taken care of. They were attentive, polite and prompt. We had a wonderful vacation but were disappointed with the unit.

Response from VrboOwner on 11 May, 2022
Brenda - Thank you for your feedback concerning Surfrider. We appreciate you contacting our office and informing us of the lighting issue in the kitchen. Happy to see that we were able to send a 3rd party vendor out to replace that outdated light in the kitchen. Sounds like the décor in Surfrider was not the right fit for you. No worries! We have many other options to browse from that may better suit your next trip to paradise! If you need any more assistance with planning your next vacation, don't hesitate to give one of our reservationist a call! Thank you for alerting us of the linen mishap. So you know, the linens that were delivered are the correct linens for the beds. We do not offer full sized linens at this time. We use Queen sheets for Full beds as it allows the sheets to cover the mattress completely allowing guests a more relaxing sleep. Thank you for allowing Surfrider to host your beach retreat! We're certainly looking forward to your next trip to paradise soon!
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at 2113A Surfrider. The location and views were outstanding and the deck space comfortable and inviting. The oven, microwave, and dishwasher were new and all appliances worked well. The furniture was budget grade, but comfortable. The surfaces were clean.
I would stay there again, but recommend a good cleaning of all walls because they were scuffed and had finger prints in several places and looked dingy (maybe end of season and many kids?); replacing the rusted out medicine cabinet in the 2nd bathroom as well as the towel rack, which fell down and proved to be unusable; replacing the master bedroom curtains which were very shabby/dirty, tacking down the round carpet under the dining table as it rolls up and is a trip hazard; replacing the AC vent filter which was grossly dirty — way overdue; generally cleanup/replace some of the rusted grates and fixtures; and a guide on how to use the tv would be super helpful (there doesn’t seem to be cable, be prepared to use your Hulu and Netflix accounts for entertainment). The internet is slow. The tennis courts at the rec center are rough, though there are two nice ones at the park in Kure Beach and at Carolina Beach, too, not far away. Be prepared and don’t bring your Hummer — the parking for two is tandem and tight. A little TLC and paint would go a long way to spiff this place up. If you need luxury or updated fashionable decor, this place is not for you. If you have kids and don’t want to worry about breaking expensive things, this place is for you. And, the best, if you don’t mind budget quality (but comfortable) furnishings and decor, the location is totally worth the stay for the price. We loved it and will go back.

Typically, all of our properties received a deep clean in the fall after the rental season as there is not enough time for a true deep clean between back to back reservations in the height of the summer season. I will pass along your notes regarding maintenance and cleanliness to the appropriate teams to address. We hope you will visit agian!
Wonderful to hear you enjoyed your stay, Carol! We appreciate you choosing to rent with our company and we hope to host you again on your next trip to paradise!
Excellent property with relatively new appliances. Comfortable space. Nice deck and furniture. Only thing I would add might be some microwave safe dishes.
