The bright, airy living room of this corner unit features a view you won’t find elsewhere - "Surf's Up" has wide sliding glass doors lead out to the expansive oceanfront deck, and a large picture window provides more unobstructed views of the ocean and beach toward the Kure Beach Pier. When you’re not watching (or riding!) the waves, take in a movie on the flat screen smart TV from the comfy rocker recliner or Queen size sleeper sofa.

The main bedroom has a Queen bed (new in 2021), as well as a flat-screen TV. The on suite bath features a spacious ceramic tile walk-in shower. The second bedroom has two Twin beds (also with new mattresses purchased in 2019) and is adjacent to the second bathroom, which has a combination shower and tub. Plan family meals in the fully stocked kitchen, upgraded with white Shaker cabinets, a subway-tile backsplash and sparkling quartz countertops. All new stainless steel appliances include a whisper-quiet dishwasher. The dining table comfortably seats six, with additional seating for four at the kitchen bar.

Ideally situated, this unit is adjacent to an outdoor pool and covered picnic area, includes parking for two cars below and offers easy access to a beach walkway between buildings.

Surf’s Up - Don’t Recommend
Good location, right on the beach. The condo is not in good shape. Walls need washed and painted, furniture was dirty, mold in the showers and on vanity in the master bathroom. Garbage can needs replaced and vent covers need cleaned/replaced. The property management company did send someone to clean after I called about the condition of the property. It is the end of season is not an excuse for a property not being clean. The rental rate is the same and I expect a clean place to stay with my family. I have rented several different units at Ocean Dunes and I would not rent this unit again.

Had a great stay! Just an old property that needs some attention.
Everything was just as stated. Only a few minor suggested improvements. The bed needs to be upgraded. Balcony door and windows need to be cleaned (I cleaned the patio door as best as I could). Some of the pots weren't very clean. The dish strainer was just plain gross. The kitchen waste basket needs to be replaced. Just little things.

Decent rental, needs better cleaning services
The location was great, nice ocean views, convenient to the pool area, and beach was not as crowded as when we stay in Carolina Beach. The condo was not cleaned well however. We have an 11 month old and within the first 10 minutes of being there her knees and tops of her feet were black from crawling on the floor. There was a load of laundry in the dryer. We had to push the twin beds together for our toddler to not roll out and when we moved the nightstand there were 15-20 wadded up tissues all behind it and the headboards. Other than the cleanliness it was a great size for our small family and you can’t beat the view!!

A little beach paradise on the Atlantic.
Everything was as expected and wonderful. It was as if we had lived there forever. We did have to wash the patio doors for a better view, no big deal. Seeing sunrise over the ocean from my bed was particularly magical. The area was low key and nice and quiet.

Great location.
The mattress in the master bedroom is terrible and needs replaced and the sofa has no padding in the cushions. The sliding door either needs to be replaced or greased as it is very hard to open and close and the vents are rusted out and dangerous. The only way we would stay there again would be if all of the items were fixed.

Stay at condo
Condo was decorated nicely, and furniture was comfortable. TV worked well and so did the internet. This Condo is really nice, just a few simple things need fixed. The walk to the beach was a little longer than we prefer, but not horrible. The pool is a nice way to cool off.

Great beach getaway!
Very nice condo that looked just like the pictures! Check in and out were pretty easy. The place was very clean and we didn't have any issues. The whole building could use a good pressure washing but that had no bearing on the unit itself. Would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful stay at a quiet, peaceful beach. The condo had everything we needed to be comfortable. We enjoyed the deck with the waves almost at our door. The sound if the waves crashing all night was so relaxing. We would definitely choose this place again.

Great little getaway
Other than a minor hiccup of not having linens and towels at the time we arrived (and this was addressed very quickly by the rental agency), the stay was great. The property was clean. The ocean-front view was phenomenal. Beach access was easy. Location was convenient (just a few short minutes to Fort Fisher and the Aquarium). I would definitely look at returning to this site inthe future.

Nice location, awful cleaning job
The dish washer was filthy upon arrival. There's dried food all inside of it. The bed in the main bedroom was misrepresented. It is NOT a queen bed. The bed frame is an adjustable frame that can accommodate either a full size or queen size mattress depending on the slot used. The slot and mattress used is full size. The bed is also uncomfortable. The shower door in the main bedroom was covered in soap scum. The refrigerator was not clean. There was some sort of sticky substance that had to be wiped out. Pests are a huge issue. There were multiple spiders seen during our stay and one roach. The checkout instructions are not specific enough. If you’re going to threaten to charge people a $100 fee for not removing the trash you should probably give more specific instructions. Simply saying to take it out on Monday is not enough. You should give us a time. We had to literally chase down the trash man as we were late apparently late taking it to the street at 7:30am. Checkout isn’t until 10am. Upon arrival I was happy to see the recent renovations but the cleaning was done very poorly. We loved the location but unfortunately this would be our very last resort if we plan on returning to the area in the future.

Quiet Off Season Visit
This was a perfect spot to get away. Location close to Fort Fisher and undeveloped portion of beach...making for nice long walks. Not a lot of people this time of year. Imagine in the height of the season the narrow beach may get a bit cozy. This unit is right next to pool - so convenient. And beach access a very short walk to end of building. The unit was bright and clean...loved the side bay window where we could sit and have coffee but enjoy the view on a rainy day, (rain comes thru decking boards above). Previous review about utensils is spot on - definitely need to update....knives dull (sharpener didn’t help), cutting board wore out, and no rubber spatula. But these were minor inconveniences for us and we enjoyed the space.

Winter Getaway
My elderly parents, husband and I (all senior citizens) enjoyed 3 nights in this oceanfront unit with terrific views of the ocean. My dad enjoyed sitting in the recliner and watching the pelicans fly over. The home fit our needs with the well appointed kitchen, walk-in shower, fresh linens, only one flight of stairs to enter, and lots of peace and quiet. Check-in/Check-out procedures were a breeze. Unfortunately the weather wasn't the greatest, but we made the best of it by exploring the nearby aquarium and taking the Fort Fisher Ferry to Southport and back. I would definitely recommend this place but have one suggestion: some sort of curtain over the blinds in the twin bedroom. The lights from the outside stairs are very bright.
