Enjoyed our stay.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. Not at busy location but not far from anywhere you want to get to. Going to the Gazebo every morning to drink our coffee was a treat. Host was very respectful of our privacy.

Great Coastal Location

Property is ideal for a long weekend and a couple. Very close to the beach, literally across the road. More restaurants than you can eat at within 5-10 minutes drive.

Nice room, short walk to beach access

The room was clean and quiet, a short walk from the gazebo and access to the beach. Awkward to have to text the owner to adjust the temperature of the AC each time. Currently no eating equipment: no glasses, plates, or utensils, so bring your own. Convenient keypad entry.

That beach!

No better way to recharge your batteries than a quiet, relaxing beach getaway! Private beach access is directly across the street and the fishing pier is a nice one mile walk along the shore. Perfect morning walk to watch the sun rise! Mait was super nice and even provided a thoughtfully compiled resource guide to local dining recommendations, etc. Met some great locals during our stay, too. Don't delay! Book this room now if you're looking for a nice, serene beach stay and a great host. But if you're looking for all night parties, keep scrolling!

Great short visit!

The property and manager were great! The accommodations were great. Only thing is add is travel soap and a water in the fridge just to help start. Otherwise the stay was super convenient to the private beach access which was quiet and dinner scene was close enough where it wasn’t inconvenient but far enough to be away. Great stay! I had to cut short though and manager was very accommodating and understand. Again great stay for 2 adults. Thanks!

Short walk to the beach can't be beat!

Our host was communicative and the property was ideally located within walking distance of the beach (one minute!) I'm in my third trimester, so this was incredibly convenient for my husband and me! This home is located just minutes away from quality dining. Our host was great about making sure we were comfortable. He was communicative yet respectful of giving us space! I wish them the best with their VRBO rental.

Wonderful!

This was my first time using VRBO and not staying in a hotel or with family/friends. I was very impressed and super happy with my stay! It was extremely easy checking in/out and the house is in an excellent location...right by the beach and close enough walk to restaurants/shops/pier...yet far enough from any noise! Everything was neat and clean and super cute! My dog loved it as well!!!

Perfect solo getaway!

This was exactly what I needed. The walk to the beach was even quicker than how long it takes with some oceanfront condos. Had coffee on the gazebo. Thanks for the coffee bar. Great water pressure in the shower. Host is a great communicator. The host family lives upstairs and respected my privacy.

quick family getaway

Great location - 1 minute walk to uncrowded, private, beach access. The house is well equipped, and quite comfortable. When we arrived, it appeared the cleaning crew had not done a particular good job. We contacted the owner, who responded quickly, and had a new crew arrive by the next AM. In other words, mistakes happen and are part of life - and thankfully, this owner was very responsive and quickly took steps to remedy the situation in an equitable manner...thank you. The remainder of stay was excellent.

Very nice private beach!

This house is clean with short walking distance to the beach. The private beach is quiet and beautiful! The kitchen is a little too small. But still could be managed.

Great time!

We got to spend the weekend at this property enjoying a relaxing friends vacation and have birthday celebrations for my husband. The location was perfect, such a short walk to the beach. All the rooms had a great view and the wrap around porch was my favorite! We all just relaxed and enjoyed the scenery. The neighborhood was just fine, truthfully only had one issue where neighbors assumed we were violating parking policies which was frustrating. There were 3 vehicles parked nearby the house that did not belong to us and there were other assumptions that we weren’t complying with regulations towards beach access and beach rules. There were nearby parties of people who might have been confused for us? Which only put a small damper on our otherwise wonderful weekend! The host was so considerate and definitely understood when reaching out about the complaints, I appreciated that because I always want to respect someone’s property. Rooms were great, we had 9 ppl, plenty of room and place to sleep and shower! We would absolutely recommend and would love to come back! Thank you to the host for offering up your home and for allowing us to have such a memorable weekend!!!

Great location!

We enjoyed our stay at Kure Beach in this wonderful house! The private beach access has now spoiled us and is a must when booking a beach house. This is close to the boardwalk and there is a lot to do in the area. Owner was gracious and easy to contact. We highly recommend this house!

Great time!

Vacation home is well-maintained, spacious, with a nice and bright renovated kitchen area. A short walk to the private access beach area was super convenient and it was nice to be in an area not over-crowded. The owner, Mait, was very responsive and prompt with our questions, and provided great local information. It's wonderful having someone who cares and wants you to have a great vacation!
