6/10
This property is not worth the price compared to other houses we have rented, including another on Oak Island. 1 - a smoke alarm was chirping due to low battery. 2 - we could not figure out how to turn on the shower in the master bath. it had a mechanism we had never seen before, and there were no instructions for the house other than how to check out. 3 - the TV was a disaster. First, it was dependent on internet service and the internet router needed restarting. Then, you had to figure out how to get TV service as the TV appears like a phone or tablet with apps, all of hich required signons. No instructions. 3 - all of the windows had a salt film on them that should have been cleaned off. We paid a premium for oceanfront but had a hard time enjoying it. The excuse that the salt spray covers everything doesn't wash - this is the sixth year we've rented a house directly on the beach on Ocean Dr at OKI and the first time we've had this problem. Everyone else cleaned the windows. 4 - Every piece of furniture had a fine layer of sand on it. Bottom line, there are plenty of other places here on the beach for rent. We wouldn't stay here again.
