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!

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!

What a disappointment!!! This home was not clean. Floors were filthy. All mattresses were worn out, very uncomfortable. The comforters were disgustingly dirty with stains and blood. The bathrooms smelled of mold and mildew. My clothes smelled after hanging in the closet. The biggest complaint was the air conditioning. The unit would not cool properly. It was miserably HOT- 78 degrees. I called the rental company that manages the condo. I explained that l have a heart condition and asthma and I was told l would hear from someone within the hour. No one called. I called back. And was told it was heat and humidity. I spoke to others renters in the complex and they did not the same problem. I would not rent this property again or recommend to anyone!”

Beautiful Beachfront Condo
Beautiful Beachfront Condo
We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful condo. The beach view was amazing. The only concern is that 2 of my friends are allergic to cats and starts to have allergies a day into our visit. We noticed a cat toy and slight smell in one of the guest bedrooms, so I’m not sure if the owner has a cat(s), but that may be best to note as anyone allergic will notice. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

Thank goodness for the deck!
Thank goodness for the deck!
We enjoyed the location on Kure Beach, close to the Farmer's Market and the Carolina Beach boardwalk without all the crowds. The unit was as pictured, and my kids enjoyed the pool. The deck was wonderful, and helped make up for the other shortcomings of this condo. We spent hours out there every evening. There were quite a few hiccups … The door code I was given did not work upon arrival; I called and they fixed the issue. The next day, the code did not work again; I called again and it was fixed. The parking passes I received had incorrect dates; I called again this was fixed. The two closest beach accesses were closed; so we had to walk even farther, which posed an issue for my parents with mobility issues. If you have mobility issues, it’s also good to note that while it’s a 2nd floor unit, you’ll have to walk up 3 flights of stairs. The parking spot is more narrow than any of the others in that building; our SUV fit with maybe an inch to spare on each side. The twin bed in the bunk room has a completely broken frame; and the bunk mattresses are the squeakiest I’ve ever heard. The ice maker in the freezer was not working, the stove is in Celsius, and ceiling fans are so dirty. We definitely enjoyed our family time here, but would not stay again. I could’ve called again about the ice maker and stove, but I was tired of calling the office and wanted to be with my family instead of waiting on a repairman. This unit has really great potential with a few fixes.

Perfect Getaway!
Perfect Getaway!
The location on the beach was perfect. The accommodations were clean upon our arrival with all amenities as stated. Any questions before and during our stay were promptly responded too. You will need to drive to the local commercial areas of Kure and Carolina Beach for supplies or eating out but the serenity and beach view from this location far outweigh any inconvenience of getting into the car for a short 2-3 mile drive. The only negative in our stay was not being there longer.

Very Disappointed
Very Disappointed
We were very disappointed that the property manager did not tell us the beach access was closed due to the hurricane that hit two weeks prior to our stay. We understand these things happen but they should have notified us in advance of our arrival. We booked our stay one week in advance so they knew it was closed. The pool was also closed, we were not told about either. The main reason for paying the higher price for beachfront is to be able to walk onto the beach from the condo. The key code for the door was not working. The condominium had cockroaches and was not cleaned well. Pest control treated the property inside without notifying us in advance. If you enjoy a musty smell this is the place for you. The condo has lovely looking furnishings and nice appliances but I would not returned this location.
