Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Al Mare was the perfect base for a week at the beach for our family of 5 and dog. The quick ocean access, private community, newly renovated home, and all the amenities combined to make it a fantastic week. The only thing the home is missing is more hooks - beach houses should have hooks everywhere. But that is easily fixable. We wouldn't hesitate to come back to Al Mare for a future visit.

This house has been newly renovated, has new furnishings, a well-equipped kitchen, and is steps from the ocean on a quiet cul-de-sac. The top floor (reverse floor plan with common areas on the top floor) is lined with windows for great views of the ocean all day long. The property manager we spoke to (they are on the island) was very responsive and even provided a (new) slow cooker for our New Year’s Day meal. Check in and check out was simple. These property managers know what they’re doing—provided an excellent experience on Bald Head.
