Great stay!

The house was great for a week at the beach. Short drive to lots of public beach access. The neighborhood was great for evening walks. There is a fishing pier in walking distance as well. Plenty of room for our family of 6 and the kitchen was perfect for cooking several dinners in.

Great Oak Island Stay!

We had a great mini-getaway on Oak Island. the Serenity by the Sea property had everything we needed for a brief escape to the shore. Lorillee was a great host and was extremely helpful when we had questions. I would absolutely stay with her again!

Loved this place!

We had a great long weekend! The home was nicely decorated and everything was super clean. Comfy beds, well stocked kitchen and great back yard for the dogs. It was the perfect size for us and the wifi was great for the teenager. We would stay here again.

Anniversary Getaway

It was a nice home with everything you could need for an enjoyable stay and a big plus is that the bed was not one of those Barbie doll foam mattress but a real mattress and box springs.

Great place, accurate listing!

We enjoyed our stay at this cute home on Oak Island. It was perfect for our needs and an added bonus that our dogs could come. The fenced in backyard was perfect for them to spend some time outdoors. The home was accurate to the listing description and pictures, and the owner was excellent to work with. The home is close to the intercoastal and it was in a neighborhood that was an excellent place to take a walk in the morning. We would not hesitate to stay again if needed.

Best Vacation EVER!!

Our family planned a 6 day/5 night trip here with 3 boys 6,9,& 12 and our 2 dogs. The place is amazing. Excellent location and close to beach and fishing. The house was spotless and very well stocked. By far the most well taken care of and well stocked place I have stayed. We forgot a few things but the house had literally everything we could ever need. Our host was responsive and available immediately when necessary but left us to our trip with no bother at the same time. House location was peaceful and the fenced in back yard was perfect for our dogs. Took surfing lessons, went fishing, swam everyday, and had an amazing time. 5 stars are all the recommendations!

A little bit about me:

For over 30 years, I've been helping people manage their vacation or rental property. Whether you need help managing your listing on Airbnb (and VRBO), are an experienced owner/operator looking for more exposure to renters in this competitive market, or simply want my decades-worth of experience with property management and real estate law so that no stone is left unturned when it comes time buy or sell - I am here to guide you through the process.

Why they chose this property

We love both Southport and Oak Island. We recently purchased this home on Oak Island at the end of December 2022. WE hope You enjoy it as much as we do, enjoy a nice quiet neighborhood with the beach close by.

What makes this property unique

Its a unique home that looks like a boat, its not a cookie cutter. The beach colors and decor make me smile, I hope guests will enjoy it as much as we do.
