About this apartment rental
Heart Key Home is on the ocean with spectacular views. We are located on the upper level of a two story building with all rooms on one level. We feature four large bedrooms with four bathrooms (one shower/tube is jack-in-jill), plus an outdoor shower. The large kitchen with top of the line appliances and double oven has enough space for creating large family / group meals that will be remembered. There is seating for four at the counter and the reclaimed wood dining table can seat up to 10. There is a TV in the living room, while the seating is focused on the ocean. The open concept allows ocean views from the kitchen, dining and living spaces. The covered porch is an excellent place to watch the ocean and relax in the shade. This home is new to our family and we have put many hours bringing back the beauty. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do. (This is the top level of a two unit building). This winter we added street side stairs for safety and convenience. Please check out our new listing of the lower level under #1715873.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. My husband and I along with our adult children and spouses, and parents (in their 80s) stayed with us. The ease to and from the beach was great! My father who is 81 and has COPD was able to utilize the elevator when he was feeling “winded”. We thoroughly enjoyed all the amenities : large kitchen and refrigerator, large dining table, comfortable living room, comfortable beds, large washer and drier, beautiful porch with rocking chairs and view of the beach, fire pit and corn hole, beach chairs with wagon to transport to and from the beach. The umbrellas were a little aged and breaking from salt water exposure and sand but we easily rented a shimbumi shade from the beach store down the street. I highly recommend this property!

Beautiful view of the ocean. Well maintained and equipped for a week of living on the beach and enjoying beautiful ocean view. Well equipped for our family of 8 and plenty of room for dinner with 9 other family members during our 35th year at OIB! Already made our reservation for 2025!

Loved everything about this stay. Super clean. Very well equipped. The fridge and freezer are commercial size. Tons of extra pillows and blankets and bath towels and beach towels. Mattresses were great. Elevator is a plus for this top floor unit. Backyard is amazing. Outside shower has hot and cold water. I would 100% rent again. Bath mats would be a plus. Only recommendation I have is to reorganize email with instructions for accessing unit. First instruct to 1. Take elevator or stairs to top floor where front door is located. 2. Key lockbox is located next to unit’s front door. The Instructional email we received, followed by signage on ground level stating entrance was in the back, in addition to “other” lock boxes located in the backyard area, left us confused, after a very long day with many hours of driving. Both Mary and her son were extremely responsive however and we got it all squared away pretty quickly. Highly recommended!

We only stayed two nights, but didn’t want to leave! The kitchen is STOCKED if you like to cook; tons of pots, pans, dishes, etc. (We went out to eat for our meals.) The back porch was our FAVORITE spot! The home also came with all the beach gear you could need. There were even beach umbrellas! The home had Kleenex and toilet paper and paper towels and hand wash; so nice to not have to worry about packing those things! The elevator was great for my 75 year old mother. There were only four of us, so the house had plenty of room. Even with more people, the house is perfectly spacious, with each room having its own toilet. Great feature! The beach has a TON of shells, so we were able to bring some home as a souvenir. We highly recommend Maria’s! We had pizza and calzones delivered our first night. We ate at Sharky’s the second evening, and enjoyed the shrimp pasta and views. Ocean Isle Creamery is always a yummy treat. The owner is so kind and extremely responsive. We would definitely stay here again.

The house was cleaned, very spacious, and well-maintained and also great view of the beach (happened to see Sun rise and set from the deck). There was 3.5 bathrooms. We had a great time out there during the New Year celebration.

My children, grandchildren, and myself gathered for a couple days to celebrate our Christmas. The bedroom setup accommodated us perfectly and all beds were comfortable. The beach view is wonderful. The kitchen is well stocked and it is great to have all linens provided. The hosts were very responsive.

We had six adults staying here and never felt crowded. Everything was as advertised and very nice. Location was fantastic and nice job by Mary with all communications.
Water pressure in the kitchen was very low and remember to bring your own soap and shampoo. Please don't expect the elevator to work as the parts have been on back order for many months.

Have stayed in various condos on OIB FOR 34 years. The property we had this year was the best! Right on the beach, gorgeous ocean view and a beautiful breeze all week long. How good?
We've already reserved for next July! OIB is a perfect place for a family vacation.

Great week on OIB. We have stayed at this property before and love the accommodations and direct beach access.

Very nice house with a well equipped kitchen. Refrigerator was massive with a huge freezer. Anything you would ever need at the beach was a available for use (umbrellas, wagons, tons and tons of toys, chairs, surf boards, beach blankets, bikes and two small kiddie pools for use in the courtyard). Beds were comfortable as were all furnishings. Would have liked a tv in all bedrooms but a tv was in master and bunk bed rooms. Our weather was very hot and we were very comfortable without any issues keeping the place cool. No noise issues with people that stayed below us. Deck furniture is extremely comfortable and the top level gives a perfect view of the ocean. Courtyard area has a really good grill, nice fire pit, two outdoor showers and two sets of cornholes. Walk to the beach is effortless. We had 4 cars and a bass boat so parking was an issue but we were able to all park although tight.

Great house/ condo. Everything was better than shown. Ocean front porch was beautiful and we all have wonderful memories congregating there. Close beach access right beside house. Was able to get our Mom to the beach in a beach wheelchair. Via that beach access. Loved every thing about it. Especially the host. Mary was the best!!!

The house looks like the pictures and better. Very clean and well equipped. Beds are comfortable and plenty of towels and linens. You can find everything you might need for a family vacation, including kids toys, beach wagons, bikes, sand toys and swimming boards. We enjoyed the beach panoramic view and accessibility to the Beach.
Mary is very responsive and helpful.
Will come back for sure.

This is the top unit and our stay was amazing. Condo had a beautiful view and great beach access that ran alongside the building. The private access was washed away by hurricane. There were tons of beach towels to use and the storage had lots of beach chairs, a beach wagon, bikes, and lots of other beach items. Was helpful since we flew. Would highly recommend and stay here again if we go back. Elevator was very easy to use! Thank you Dan & Mary.

Great beach location
We rented for a week: two seniors, our three adult children, and three little ones: ages 3 and two at 18 months. Spacious, plenty of privacy, great front deck/porch facing the ocean that we used a lot. Amenities were considerably greater than expected.

Very relaxing
Both Mary and Dan were great and easy to contact. The house was gorgeous and very relaxing. The only reason I gave a 4 for cleanliness is because cleaning crew did not clean bed toppings and the floors were not swept but we were understanding of the labor shortage. Overall the stay was well worth it. My family enjoyed it all and that being said was more important then the little bumps as to be expected with quick turnovers.

Friends Trip
We stayed in Unit B and it was very nice. Nice porch to sit on and look at the ocean. Very nice kitchen that is fully stocked. Owners supply items that you don’t need to buy or bring with you. Nice outdoor area. Definitely would stay here again.

Quick beach trip
For this being a short beach trip for us we had a great time in this house. It had everything we needed and even toys for the little kids which was so helpful! The view was amazing and very quiet on the beach. We used the yard more than we thought we would. It was great!

pleasant stay
All the kitchen needs we could ever need.
Dishwasher to operate but got dishes clean.
Bathroom floor tile in King suite seemed to’give’. I wonder if a leak is causing the subfloor to deteriorate
Probably should replace the area rug in living room because of dangerously turned up edges.
Elevator worked perfectly.
We love coming to your place and look forward to next year.

Wonderful Stay!
The property was beautiful! Although there was just the 2 of us, the house would be perfect for a large family or several couples.the possibility of using both units would make it a perfect stay for several families.The view from the back decks and the gazebo were fabulous and the backyard space was great for spending time outside. direct beach access was perfect! We will definitely consider staying here again!

The perfect beach getaway
The photos of this property, while beautiful, don't give it justice. It's truly amazing and none of us wanted to leave.
The sound of crashing waves 24/7, building sand castles, walks collecting shells, fishing from the beach and watching for dolphins and even a whale are etched in our memories forever.
I can't say enough about Mary, our host. She was extremely friendly, helpful and gracious. We look forward to staying here again next year.

Mother/Daughter Retreat
My experience with this rental from beginning to end was phenomenal! The presentation of the property on VRBO was dead on! Upon arrival the property was clean, great location and accommodating for every party in our group. We wished we had more time to explore the area, but we will definitely return to this specific location. And I like to promote great things and I will definitely spread the word about this property!

Perfect Beachhouse Getaway
This was our 2nd time staying at the property, both occasions we couldn't have asked for a better property. Beautiful views, beautiful property and the property owners were very helpful and great at communication each time. We would stay here every time we visit Ocean Isle if available. We especially love the layout of the home as it is perfect for families that want to spend time together. Very open floor plan that allows everone to enjoy time together.
