OIB34 OIB Isle Retreat

The condo is always clean and ready for us , my brother and wife like visiting us , they live 10 miles away , the beach is very nice and close . We have been here 4 times at same condo , I think we will come in the winter months from now on .

We have sought out this condo for the past three years, and love it. It has a prime location and is everything you could ask for in a beach home. My only complaint is that the master bedroom bed is quite uncomfortable (and loud) to sleep in. Aside from that, this place is picture-perfect in every way.

We had a wonderful stay at OIB Isle Retreat over Memorial Day weekend! The location couldn’t be better—just a short five-minute walk up the boardwalk and you’re on the beach. While the balcony doesn’t offer a direct ocean view, you can still hear the waves, which adds a lovely touch of beachside charm. The space itself is clean, cozy, and clearly loved. The furniture is a mix of older and thrifted pieces, which honestly adds to the relaxed, nostalgic feel of a true beach vacation. Everything was well-kept and spotless—no musty smells or pet hair like we’ve encountered at other rentals. It’s clear that the owners and Vacasa take pride in keeping it clean and guest-ready. The kitchen had everything we needed for quick breakfasts and light dinners, and the dining table made the perfect spot for family board games before bed. Appliances are all updated stainless steel, and the in-unit washer/dryer combo was a great convenience for a beach trip. Beds are on the firm side, but comfortable, and our child especially loved having a smart TV in his bedroom! Vacasa was very communicative throughout our stay—we felt supported without being overwhelmed. Check-in was seamless, and we had no issues with parking (there’s a small lot next to the building that always had space). A few tips for future guests: the walk to the beach is easy but not very cart-friendly, so be prepared to carry your gear. The space does show some signs of wear (scuffed paint, minor dings), but everything was in good working order and, again, extremely clean. You’ll want to plan a quick grocery trip if you’re staying for more than a few days, as starter supplies (trash bags, dish soap, TP) are provided in limited quantities. We’d absolutely stay here again—especially for the beach access and overall ease. It’s ideal for small families, couples, or anyone who just wants to hang out by the ocean. For local eats, we recommend The Purple Onion in Shallotte and Spilt Milk for a sweet treat nearby.

Exceptionally clean! View was fantastic I can hear the ocean off my deck ! , steps to the beach , Had all amenities needed and super close everything @ OIB definitely would stay again 🏖️

We loved our stay in this condo! Right on the beach with a great deck to relax on and hear the waves! It was clean and stocked with things we needed! Definitely will be back!

We came for 2 nights and had never stayed at this property before. The property is a little dated but the kitchen has been updated nicely. Regardless, it was very comfortable and clean and the check out process was great!
