My family has been vacationing to Ocracoke Island for over 50 years. We decided to try something new this year and of course took the ferry to Ocracoke for a few days. Wolf’s Wishing Star did not disappoint! Just a perfect location with a gorgeous view of the beach. The property is very nice and clean. Being close to the pier is an added bonus and we really enjoyed the donuts/coffee at Roots and Leaves food truck which is also just around the corner! The beach wasn’t too crowded either! Wonderful memories made with my family!!!

This was our 2nd time at Wolf"s Whispering Star and our 1st Thanksgiving at the beach. Loved it. Planning to do it again next year.

We had a nice getaway weekend and really enjoyed the condo and its proximity to the beach and the Koru village.

Location, ease of logistics to enter and access beach. Great view. Ready before 6 was a bonus!

The ocean views were amazing

Great location, great view, nice Condo.

Wow! We had an amazing time at Wishing Star; can’t wait to come back. The ocean views are spectacular and easy access to the beach is an added bonus. This condo has everything you need and more!

Wishing Star is a well cared for condo.
Everything is in good condition, the furniture is comfortable, and the views are beautiful.
We enjoyed staying there and look forward to doing so again.

Will definitely stay again. Wonderful location, view and set up.

Beautiful condo, great location, cleaning service was bad. Not enough towels and the washing machine was broke and they never fixed it while we were there so no way to wash. Had to use the same towels for 7 days. Did speak with a nice lady about the cleanliness and she refunded the cleaning charge. I would still rent it again as I know the owners cannot help certain things.

The condo was clean and nicely decorated and furnished. The views from the first floor were gorgeous. You can see and hear the ocean. We were just steps from the beach.

Had a much needed quiet relaxing stay. Really liked the location not being so busy or commercialized, access to the beach and pier were great. Very nice place to stay, hope to return again. Thank you very much.

Loved that it was so close to the beach! We have stated before and it never disappoints. Fond family memories were made❤️

Close to the beach

Pros: Quick/convenient access to beach (must be okay with climbing a lot of stairs). Unit is nicely decorated and tech savvy. Furniture is comfy, except for beds. Convenient location to grocery store, shops and pier. Cons: Unit needs a deep cleaning! Waited until 5PM for checkin..unit was not "fully" clean. Sand everywhere! Blinds are caked with dust and dead bugs on sills, and dust bunnies on floors. Bathrooms had roaches. Towels, bedding, and paper products are very cheap. Master bed sheets didn't fit the bed properly. Beds need new mattresses! Could feel springs on the master bed. Kitchen is very small with no extra cupboard space or pantry. Had to use the dining table for patry items. No garbage or recycling bins located near the unit. Had to schlep all trash to a dumpster along the highway. Walls are thin...could hear neighbors upstairs walking around, and other toilets flushing.

The location is amazing! Perfect lay out! Perfect view! Kitchen well stocked!

WE HAVE STAYED AT WISHING STAR FOR YEARS AND HAVE REALLY ENJOYED IT.....LOVE THE LOCATION AND THE SIZE IS PERFECT FOR US...HAVE ENJOYED ALL THE ADDITIONS AND IMPROVEMETNS FOR YEAR TO YEAR..LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE VACATIONS THERE.

My husband and I were looking to getaway safely. My biggest check boxes being: on the beach where I can watch the sunrise and waves while sipping my coffee and a location that allowed for social distancing while still experiencing the sights. This location delivered! The rental was a great size for the two of us, but would have fit our children as well. The beach is mere steps away but the sounds of the ocean fill the rental even with the windows and doors closed - perfect! The location is in the middle of all the great places to shop and see. We would love to stay again.

Awesome beach views and very helpful customer service finds this property as an excellent vacation stay. Enjoy your stay.

This is a beautiful condo with a great view and access to the ocean. The property was NOT Clean at all. There were also "Palmetto bugs" that were very large. The place needs to be fumigated for them and needs a deep cleaning.

No problem at all

I loved this place thank you so much!

Overall the property was as advertised and fit our expectations. The deck faced the ocean, with views of the Avon Pier to the north and nothing but water to the south. The home was well maintained, with comfortable furniture and beds. A key to the storage locker was there, where we found beach chairs and umbrellas. I have only two complaints: 1. The home was surface clean, but not deep clean. The dining room rug was very stained, and the master bath had small areas of mold on the shower curtain in the tub jets. The deck was covered in sand. We swept the first day and it was still much cleaner when we left than when arriving. 2. The deck furniture was cabled to all of the other furniture and to the deck rail, all in a row across the rear wall and blocking access to the master bedroom through the slider. This decreased its functionality, as it could be moved very little and made it impossible to have a face to face conversation with anyone else. A key provided to the renter to unlock the cable and a request to relock it when leaving would solve this issue. The location was fantastic, as it is in one of the quieter area of the islands for those looking for a more relaxed and less busy vacation. It was still easy driving distance to Nags Head and Roanoke Island for day trips. There were plenty of good restaurants around in close proximity. Overall, it was a very good experience.

After going to Hatteras Realty to check in, we got to the room only to find out that it was not cleaned very well. There was food crumbs on the kitchen counter, the island and the table. It was also very sticky. It was also obvious that the floors in some of the rooms were not swept. We immediately went back to Hatteras, and were told that a crew would be sent out to clean the condo. We left to eat dinner. When we returned, the kitchen was cleaned ; however, some of the rooms were still not swept. We also discovered that we had no tv. That did not get fixed until Tuesday. We had to be in the room for Spectrum. This took from 4:00 to 7:30. Once again our vacation plans for that evening were messed up. Last, but not least, we had to deal with cockroaches. We killed several, but the last one got away the morning we left. After I got up, my husband saw one crawl across the bed. He took a picture, but was unable to catch it to kill it!

Our experience was great. Great location. Very clean. Had everything we needed (and more). The owner was very responsive when we had an internet outage (turns out it was across the town). It was very helpful to have an after-hours option to get to the property. We had a little trouble finding our condo in the dark, but I'm not sure there was anything that could be done on the owner's part. Would definitely recommend this place!

everything was great

What a gem of a place. We loved our stay at Wishing Star. It was clean, updated and steps away from the beach. We hope to be back soon!

Loved staying at the Wishing Star! It was in the center of everything. We could walk out the back deck and walk over the board walk and the beach was right there. The place was decorated beautifully and it felt like home. Would recommend this place to anyone else who wanted to have an ocean front view.

Great place, but it’s been refurnished to accommodate only four people now rather than six as it had in the many times we’ve stayed there in years gone by under prior ownership. Beautiful oceanfront unit with easy oceanfront access.
