We enjoyed our stay and the home was very clean! We came in the winter and it's still a great time to visit the beach. The town of OKI was decorated for Christmas and we enjoyed that everything was a close drive.
Great, clean place with everything you could possibly need and plenty of activities for kids. Owner was great to deal with and made the process very simple. Would definitely stay here again!
Our stay at Atlantic Dream was great. The location is amazing, and the house was clean and comfortable. Near great restaurants AND fully equipped to cook at home. Just right for our weekend away at the beach!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This was one of the cleanest rentals we’ve stayed in. We loved the ocean views and being steps from the beach. The host was wonderful to work with and kept us updated the entire time. Don’t hesitate to book a stay!
We had a wonderful time. The view was unbelieveable. I would recommend Vrbo
to everyone. The house and property was everything and more Louann was always there to answer any questions we had. I will be going back again
The house was clean and well-maintained. Check-in process was easy and the host was communicative. The location was great, just steps onto the beach and right down the street from a great park and some restaurants. We really appreciated the extra touches for little people, including the small table and chairs, small Adirondack chairs, children’s books, kids plates/dishes and step tool. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped! We would definitely stay here again!
A lovely place to relax by the beach! The house is so cute and super convenient! Aside from being beach front, it's also minutes away from great restaurants, grocery store, and shopping. We visited for a long weekend with family (all adults) and we were very happy with our stay. The house was clean and updated, kitchen was fully stocked, the beds were comfortable, and the living room was spacious. The host was very responsive and helpful. We will definitely stay here again!
Our family goes to OKI at least once a year. This is by far the best place we have rented on the island! The location is perfect, great beach access and the cottage was very comfortable! We felt right at home and this is the first place where the kitchen was actually stocked with everything we needed. Louann was awesome from booking to checkout and was the perfect host. We are definitely looking forward to staying at her place in the future.
Super clean, comfortable and convenient - loved this fantastic home to spend our long weekend at the beach! Louann was extremely proactive in her communications and check in & out was a breeze. One of my favorite things about this home was sitting on the back porch in the morning and sipping coffee while listening to the waves and enjoying the beautiful view of endless ocean! Walking from the backyard right onto the beach was extremely easy and convenient. Would definitely stay here again!
I can't say enough good things about the "Atlantic Dream". The layout is nice. A very short walk to the beach. There is a shower and patio under the house. A good place to clean up before heading upstairs. We were pleasantly surprised to find children's books, toys, and even a small table and chairs for the kids. Everyone had a great time.
The cleanest, most thoughtfully organized home I have ever rented. Every single need we had was met, from the hose to rinse our sandy feet, to a shaded play area, to every possible cooking utensil, to the hose to rinse the salt spray from our car! The back porch has a perfect view of the beach and easy access to the beach. There are too many amenities to list, but everything is there! I will definitely be back!
We had an absolutely amazing time at Oak Island! The house was perfect for our family (including our 4 yo and 8 yo). It was stocked with all the amenities and the location couldn’t be better! Steps away from the beach, short drive to grocery stores and restaurants. Louann was excellent with communication and keeping us updated with weather changes (we arrived after a recent hurricane) and made sure we were comfortable and welcomed in her home. I wish we could have stayed longer!!! Thank you for such a wonderful stay!
This was our third year to have our “girls only” family retreat here. And this year we added my 7 month granddaughter to the fun! We love Atlantic Dream for its cleanliness, fantastic location and the owner who communicates to ensure all is well.
We will return next year and the year after, etc. Thank you, Louann, for setting the stage for wonderful family memories!
We had a great first time on Oak Island! Thank you to Louann for sharing her beautiful home with us. The view is gorgeous. The home has anything and everything you could possibly need. It was extremely clean! It was very comfortable/cozy for the 5 of us. We loved the downstairs area, outdoor shower and that it was just a few steps from the beach! We stayed during Tropical Storm Debby and Louann was so helpful and responsive the whole time we were there. Thank you again and we look forward to coming back!
The house was perfect. It’s positioned right on the beach with easy access. It’s close to all things Oak Island. My wife and I hadn’t been back to Oak Island in many years. We were married there 19 years ago. We decided to finally take the opportunity to get back to the beach and more importantly, get back to quality time together, even if just for a long weekend. This house was perfect for our special weekend. It was clean and well laid out, The host was very thoughtful in ensuring that every necessity was provided. Communication was excellent. I would highly recommend this property. If you’re looking for a home that is close to everything, easy beach access, and very comfy, this is definitely it.
Thank you for letting us use your home.
Very nice clean home oceanfront with beach access. Great for family of 6. Newly renovated home and very clean on arrival. Newer appliance but I will caution the oven does not work the best. The oven says preheated very quickly and it’s not heated to the correct temp so give it time. All the appliances/cooking pans, pots, utensils you could need are provided. Even children plates and utensils. Great place for children with kids table, seats, etc. the master bed and 1 other queen bed are very high off the ground so caution with elderly or disabled. Doorway not walker accessible except through master bedroom to bathroom. Overall wonderful spot!!
Our second time at Atlantic Dream - everything was wonderful! Great option for anyone looking for easy beach access and view but not wanting to book a larger 5 bedroom property.
The property was perfect. We had all we needed. It was clean, comfortable and quiet. Great views of the ocean and easy access to the beach.I would love to stay there again!
