Things to do:
Adventure awaits. Discover aquatic wildlife and vegetation at the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher or enjoy a relaxing ferry ride across the Cape Fear River to a quaint little shopping town called Southport. Take a trip back in time at the Fort Fisher State Historic Site and Museum which features live oak-covered trails and bunkers from the American Civil War. Stroll through the marsh to visit the home of the famous Ft. Fisher Hermit. Or wind down with nature at our two state parks, sure to provide a memorable experience with hiking, fishing, and water activities such as paddle boarding and kayaking, and search for a Venus Flytrap which is native to NC only. As one of North Carolina's most undeveloped beaches, the island offers a unique opportunity to see many diverse coastal wildlife, including pelicans and loggerhead sea turtles, in their natural habitat. Whether it’s exploring activities on the island, enjoying the ocean views, or enjoying a cocktail by sunset from your own private balcony, Pleasure Island offers diversion for every enthusiast!
Explore the treasures of Carolina Beach, ranked one of the top 10 boardwalks in the country by Food & Wine magazine. One of the last remaining beach boardwalks on the East Coast, it includes a variety of restaurants, an arcade, shops, ice cream, Famous Britts Donuts, bars, and more! During the summer months, the Boardwalk is bustling with the sound of music, carnival rides, bingo, family nights, and events like the weekly fireworks and concert series. Rent a Jeep, bicycle, or golf cart as the most convenient ways to navigate the island. Annual off-season events include the Cape Fear Kite Festival, Christmas by the Sea, and the Island of Lights Festival.
We look forward to you visiting us!

The location is great. On paper this should be an amazing property. Unfortunately, the bunkbed was a complete hazard and had to have the property management company Come fix it. The pool was very dirty and had to have the property management company have a special cleaning done out of cycle.
The pillows don’t seem like they’ve been changed in 20 years. The bedframe in the bunk room was broken, and I had to put books underneath one of the legs to balance the bed. This was never fixed.
The Cabinets are from 1970 and have a rather disgusting stickiness all over them. Plenty of cockroaches and ants throughout the home. I know this is pretty typical at the beach, but you should at least have a company take care of this regularly.
The Wi-Fi is pretty bad and doesn’t work and some of the bedrooms. Makes this difficult to work from the beach.
The showers are really old and rusted out. Definitely mold in some areas.
The entire house needs to be equipped with new furniture, a complete cleansing, new paint, and new showers.
It seems the honor is definitely not looking to put any money into this. The deck itself would move if you were to sway aggressively on it.
The outdoor shower on the ground floor below the deck was absolutely disgusting and smelled like it hasn’t been cleaned in years. Likely a back up from the drain pipe.

Great place!

We loved the house, the location, and the house had everything we needed. The only negative were the bed pillows. Overall this was an excellent place to stay.

Our family had a marvelous time here. Having the pool was a real bonus-especially for the little ones. There were pool toys (and we added a few) and lots of chairs. We rented umbrellas from a local agency who came each morning and secured them.
The little grill was old and had seen a lot of use. It would be great if they added a gas grill! The bike tires needed air and we did not see a pump. An AC person came to check on the AC when we called. It was a bit hard to cool the house during middle of the day but the rental co was very responsive.
4.1
Decent place
The location was excellent, the house was ok. We wish there was a more convenient way to bring everything up to the main floor. No vacuum, just a broom that wasn’t sufficient. Needs to have some updates, such as refrigerator umbrella stands by the pool. We definitely enjoyed the the convinces of this house.

Would definitely return! It was quiet family friendly! House was very clean! Plenty of room for our family of 10! The water was pretty and the beach had lots of room! Not crowded at all!

After Paying extra to be ocean front with 2 small children, we arrived to an ocean front disaster. We could not step one toe in the sand in front of our house or any nearby public access. There was huge heavy loud machinery working 24 hours a day dredging the beach. This would have been understandable if we had been warned so that we could have reconsidered the house or location. No one…. Vrbo, owner, sea coast rentals ever communicated that this was very possibly what we would encounter. I have messaged and spoken to sea coast rentals regarding a compensation for what we paid for ocean front but no response other than they reached out to owner…. No response there! Don’t go to Kure Beach or rental Kure Dreaming!

The property itself was outstanding. The only unfortunate was the Corps of Engineers was doing beach reclamation. Our "beach vacation" had no beach access. The rental company was responsive, we received an extra night free, but that was not really sufficient. We were told they spoke with the project manager, who "built" sand bridges so we could access the beach. However, EVERY TIME anyone walked toward that access, the workers blew an airhorn at us, drove up on 4 wheelers and told us to get off. Very disappointing. We felt we should have been notified and given the opportunity to cancel/change our reservation.

We visited April 2021 and the house had all of the basics needed for a fun beach vacation. The house is dated but upgrades seemed in progress. New thermostat was not programmed correctly and we froze the first night but rental company was very prompt and took care of things quickly. I would say this house only sleeps 10 adults comfortably. There are many roll away cots and bunks available. Owner must have a dog because visible pet hair when lifted couch cushions etc. Not for families with pet allergies.

The property was right on the beach with great access and nice pool.

Nice time on the beach
The place was dated but clean and fantastic location. Was wonderful to have the pool for when the waves on the beach were too much. Was disappointed the swing in the pictures was broken but there was a ton of deck space for watching sunrises and the ocean at night. Overall would recommend staying here if looking for a getaway with family or friends.
