    Rented property picture

    Have had outstanding service and relationship with Oak Island Accommodations over the past few years. I have found them to be very responsive to our inquiries and helping with our needs. Property has always been ready clean and pictures representative of location.

    DO NOT USE THEM! When you have issues, they completely ignore you. Our property had a broken ice maker with mold inside, the dishwasher did not work properly, all four chair by the pool were broken and clumps of dog hair were stuck on the outside of the HVAC vent. Also black mold was present as well as not use of the elevator (forced to use dangerous spiral staircase). Presented these issues to OIA on the first day of our visit. They sent someone by on Day 2 to look at them and take photos. Never heard back from them!!!

    Checked in a day late... The property was left unlocked, filthy floors, urine in the toilet, a used condom beside the fire pit and blow up toys (plastic) stuffed into the fire pit. Busted outdoor furniture and piled high crap pile in the bottom part of the house. In addition there were extra keys in the property... This Company hasn't got a clue about how finding extra keys makes a family feel when renting a property for a week. Security concerns are not how you want to start a vacation. My advice is NOT to use this company to book a vacation. I am sorry I made this choice and will not waste my hard earned money ever again with this group. Part II- Last day at the seashell cottage. A few more pics... it is truly a shame that a piece of property which could be so nice is left so un kept and falling apart.... I have a propensity to want to clean things up that are dirty to straighten things up that are disorderly. If someone just came out here with a power washer a weedeater, and spent a day working and cleaning up all of the junk that is either broken or worthless this place might be a pretty nice property.

    Rented OIA Don't Worry-Beach Happy Sept 5-12, 2020-$4200.00. We were told, the House was inspected, ready to occupy, once the "Renter Restrictions" were lifted from Hurricane Isaia Aug 3, 2020. A 5 bed/3 1/2 bath, Pool, Dog friendly w/dog run. Day 1 Sat. Front door would NOT open, no matter which way you turned the knob it would not budge. So we used the kitchen door, to get in. The Pool was like a "Black Lagoon", before the day we arrived OIA called said something wrong with the pool, they were working hard to fix and would be ready when we arrived. It was filled with algae and black gunk. Neighbors said it was like that for a while. There was insolation material hanging from the main-floor under the house above the stairs to the kitchen. Damaged PVC material on the ground bottom floor. Dog run could not be used, the gate wouldn't close properly. No white rockers on the ground floor, & on the back balcony No lounge chairs around the pool, as in the Rental photos. A beat-up deflated kids pool & broken chair along side of the fence near the pool. The grass on the entire property was 2 feet high. The floor lamp in the liv. room, no switch to turn on and off. The room with the bunks had large spiders on the wall. Remotes for TV and DVD players, broken held together with Duct Tape, needed batteries. Air conditioning was not working on the main floor, the temp monitor 80 deg. G/S advised did not Handle HVAC and the owner used a 3rd party venders for repairs. The Master suite: note written on the Toilet seat: must hold the lever down until the tank fully is empty or nothing will go down to go down. Note above the shower head on "Duct Tape", For shower to work turn on the water knob, go to the side of the tub, there is a fixture, reach up and pull down the lever. Large cockroach's 2" long, round, reddish brown that coming out of tub spouts. called G/S they laughed, called them "Water Bugs" said are very common on the island, when it rains.Two vanity sinks main-floor, lever drain water from the bowl, would not open or close. Master Suite had no spread, comforter or blanket, just sheets. The closet had bedding on the floor, pillows fallen from the shelves, went without, unknown if all was clean, used, or dirty. Under all furniture living room and dining table was Sand. Had to vacuum the entire house, all floors. In the living room chairs shake, vibrates for a few minutes then stops. Looked for big truck passing, there was no traffic. It happens often. Later the chairs and table in Dining area shakes. The vibrations are felt o 2nd / 3rd levels all during our stay. The Fire Alarms were sounding non-stop in the house. Maintenance changed all sensor batteries, unable to find sounding alarm. Found alarm in the main-floor Master, doorway to the bedroom and removed it. Co. Rep says Owners decision to use other 3rd party venders for repairs versus their maint. div.. Cal us later says HVAC called "Bells" will respond to the by 10:00 p.m. first night. No one showed up until afternoon the next day, Sunday. Day 2 Sunday Hvac says was frozen over, Huge chunks of ice on the ground below the air-conditioning unit. Said system will cool in 3-4 hours. It It never did. G/S said they had put in calls the following three days with no response. On Thursday, six days into our stay, the Maint. Div. brought by two window units, both were not big enough for the width of the windows, there was 4" opening for mosquito's and bugs from the black pool that enters the house. Everytime the family left the house if they were near the pool where the cars were parked bugs bit up their legs, my son had over 30 bites. G/S Sup. says still trying to reach Owner and requesting compensation for this $4200. Rental. Day 3 & 4 Mon & Tues House still hot, I stay behind waiting for repair staff, no show. Unable to stay on back deck, smells bad, bugs. G/S says even if we put dog in our indoor crate, will not enter if we are not there. "Safety reasons." Day 5 Weds In-Laws arrive, say the house kept moving/shaking during the night. He inspects says the house in not sound. He owns Welding and Constr. Co. Day 6 Thurs Yard service shows up "Banana's Yard Service," They blow ALL the cuttings into the pool and leave it! G/S is and they then inform us that pool parts and HVAC parts still on order. Still no repair man. OIA Maintenance Sup, good enough to send 2 window units, but not wide enough for window space, leaving 4 " open as mosquitoes and bugs from pool get inhouse. Day 7 Fri House is vacuumed by us for Sat. departure at 0800 hrs. Day 8 Sat We pull all linen and Bag same. Rental: 7 Days have passed, Now being told the Owners wife will talk to her husband, as to compensation. No decisions on Compensation! And yet had the nerve to place another family in the home this wk. We put Good Faith in this Co. & this is what we got for our hard earned money. his beach rental home should be called : "Beach Disaster-Be Ready to Be Unhappy!"

    Fire in Whale Cottage and they would not refund one dime.

    Oak Island is the most disgusting place and people I have ever encountered. They have a no refund policy so watch out!!! Our Whale Cottage was filthy dirty upon arrival with hair in the shower, sand and dirt on the floors, disgusting/dirty area carpets and rugs, mold on baseboards and holes/cracks in the floor tile. Also, we had an electrical fire which burned the living area roof. The TV and internet went out after the fire and no one cared at the office of Oak Island accommodations. We couldn't even get anyone to clean up the fire damage mess. Needless to say we were inhaling smoke fumes as well as the mold smell. These people are despicable an care nothing about your safety. I do not give any stars to the Whale Cottage dump and health hazard!!!!! Susie M.

    Do not rent Oak Island Beach Villa unit 1408…read more Seasoned user of VRBO and Airbnb with bookings from Long Beach CA, Nantucket, Prague, Paris, New Orleans, Cape Cod... tallied 16 over the past 20 years. I also rented out my lake house 6 weeks a year for a decade. I've never rented a place (this one through Margaret Rudd, Oak Island NC) this bad. There were several that were less money, either ocean front or ocean view- I took the more expensive one thinking it has to be great... wrong. Upon inspecting what I needed to cook one breakfast and one dinner for 30, almost all staying in the village, I opened the first drawer and tossed the dirty egg-caked spatula into the sink. Cabinet by cabinet, assessing what I need, it became quite apparent there was nothing there but pots, pans and silverware. This place is worn out my friends. What it has: a nice view, decent internet and a newer small stack washer/dryer. What it DOES NOT HAVE: A coffee filter, A paper towel, A drop of dish soap to clean the dirty spatula, A salt shaker, A pepper shaker, A drop of cleaning spray for the counter, A napkin, A single thing to cook with (spice, cooking oil, condiments etc), A washer pod, A mini hotel soap bar (18 cents btw), A working slider to the master bedroom balcony -you get the point. It's as if the place is stripped bare after every rental and leftovers sold at a flea market once a month. Our group had 5 other rentals within the village and I asked to take a quick walkthrough of each- to my dismay, they were at least lightly stocked with some basics if not fully stocked. Keurig pods, cleaning products, paper towels, toilet paper, cooking supplies like salt, pepper, spices, cooking oil etc. Was I expected to go buy any and all basic items for the week only to hop back on a plane and leave it all there? Not a chance - I gave it all away versus having the next renters think the owners or MR gives a crap about the tenants. Two bars hotel soap 36 cents, coffee filters 4 cents per x7, a small dish soap $2.50, a cheap counter cleaner $3.50, a washer pod 43 cents, a roll of paper towels 75 cents, plastic salt and pepper shaker $1.50 blah blah blah. At $2,600 a week, the owners need not extract every damn nickel from this rental. Seriously, $3.00 per rental period would more than cover some basics and a few bucks for some cheap beach towels. After looking at the range hood, the rusty oven and the microwave, I canceled making any food in this condo as I had promised. Is the thought "vintage", "quaint", "throwback" or "retro"? C'mon, I looked up the serial number on the microwave- 1984 Happy Birthday, you are 40! And rusty, gross and lacking a carousel of course. Do a search how long microwave ovens should be used for- 10 years. Old rusty mirrors in bathrooms, an old 10 foot junked curtain support rod sticking out from under the couch, a non-working door to the master bedroom ocean view patio, weather strip coming off front door, mangled deteriorating rugs- can go on forever -see photos. In summary, I've been a landlord to a rental property and deep in renting houses, condos and apartments. I've seen several other units in the village, all less expensive and they at least have some basics if not ready to fully accommodate renters. Oh, beach front rental with NO beach chairs, NO beach towels, NO cooler - nada- nothing to accommodate a renter at this price point. When I contacted MR about beach towels before arriving, the response was Rudd Information From:information@rudd.com To:E Mon, Jul 1 at 12:36 PM Good Afternoon, After looking into OIBV 1408, this property does not provide Beach Towels/ Beach Chairs/ Beach Toy's/ and or a Beach Cart. However on the day of check in you will need to stop by our office and pick up your parking pass and your pool pass. Sincerely, Jennifer MRA Guest Services Property Management & Vacation Rentals Margaret Rudd & Associates, Inc., REALTORS Thanks Captain Obvious - the reason for my inquiry regarding towels, chairs etc is that none were listed on the site!. Good lord - how about letting me know where I might rent such items for the week. No one has ever asked this? Anti-helpful. Shame on me for not digging deeper when I looked on the MR site and there were no reviews for this place while there were for all or most of the other units. They were likely so heinous, especially for this price point, they were taken down or never posted. I, however, DID post this review to the MR website when asked to do so via email when we got back. In a shocker, IT WAS NEVER POSTED ON THEIR SITE linked to unit 1408... and there are still no reviews. Some might say the owner responsible here and MR is not to blame. However, MR represents this property, has it in their inventory and takes a fee for every rental. There has to be some accountability and quality control measures to make sure rentals are up to some sort of standard, especially for higher price points

    These people clearly don't care about their customers. Pool has been out of order ALL week and…read morenobody cares to even tell us before we got there. I look for pool availability while booking and when we get here they tell us that they have nothing to do with it when in fact they use it as a selling point. The place is great but don't go thru Rudd because they don't care how you feel!!!

    Avoid 1 Fish 2 Fish & CVROI - Filthy Home, Cockroach Infestation, and Poor Service…read more We rented 1 Fish 2 Fish for the week of Sept 13-20, 2025. The listing advertised a "beautiful new home" -- what we got was filthy, infested, and absolutely not as advertised. The home had stained linens (what looked like urine), black mold in bathrooms, hair in showers, sticky furniture, and dirty dishes. When a deep clean was finally done, it disrupted hundreds of cockroaches, making the home uninhabitable. We had to get a hotel for safety and hygiene. The emergency line was not answered, and customer service was dismissive throughout. We were eventually refunded (minus insurance), but only after repeatedly chasing and being treated like we were the problem. I do not recommend this property or working with CVROI -- their customer service is slow, unhelpful, and defensive, even in situations involving health hazards.

    Office staff was nice but house (Calico Cat) left a lot to be desired. Old and unsafe oven that…read moresparked when we tried to use it, very cheap kitchen appliances, windows you couldn't open, and a/c that failed to cool the bedrooms. Furniture was worn beyond belief. Even the toilet seats needed replacing. We have been renting homes on the North Carolina coast for many years. This was by far the worst. It appears many other customers have been deceived by Coastal's pictures and property descriptions, too. I did leave several reviews on their website, but they have failed to respond or publish them. There are just too many other choices in rental companies. I won't be using Coastal Vacation Resorts again.

    DO NOT USE SOUTHPORT REALTY OR KATHERINE WOOTEN FOR REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS!!!!! I bought one of…read moretheir listings and was told that as part of the deal the listing agent, Katherine Wooten would pay $500.00 to remove debris from the home.  This was actually in the agent notes section of the listing. She set this appointment up with College Hunks Hauling Junk and then unbelievably cancelled it on the day I closed.  College Hunks told me that Kathleen Wooten specifically said that she was no longer responsible for the debris removal because the property was sold even though she agreed to pay for it. Clearly she had no intention of paying for it from the beginning and outright lied to my face. Because there was a short delay to close ( the sellers had to provide some additional paperwork ) I was given permission by the sellers to enter the house a few days early to start cleaning it out. Therefore, there was  a tremendous amount of debris in the front, side and back of the home. When Kathleen Wooten came to get the lockbox she actually stood in front of me and would not address the question of the junk removal when I asked her three times about it. All she did was avoid the question and in a completely disingenuous way asked "what could she do for me today". All the while knowing she CANCELLED the junk removal while we were waiting for them to come. The brokers in charge, Kim Anne Russ and Pamela Frandano did nothing as well to rectify this situation. In all my years of buying in excess of 25 homes ( including one in the St James Plantation )I have never experienced such unprofessional, sneaky and downright dirty behavior. My agent, John Langley, of Southport Oak Island Realty could not apologize enough for Kathleen Wooten's unethical and dishonest behavior. He actually stepped up and made it right by paying the $500 out of his own pocket. John Langley is true professional who is honest and caring and went above and beyond what was expected of him. I will be purchasing more property in the area and plan to do many more transactions with him in the future. If you need to buy or sell a home, and want to deal with an ethical professional I highly recommend John Langley and Southport Oak Island Realty.
