We were very impressed by our accommodations at wrightsville dunes. Our rental felt more like a home than rental. It was quiet, very nice pool areas, and the beach was not crowded. Love staying down at this end of the beach and will definitely come back.
We enjoyed our stay. The property description was accurate, clean and quiet. I would have preferred to be a tad bit closer to the beach. While my young adult kids went, trekking all of our stuff was not appealing to me. My husband and I opted to stay on the balcony. The trade off for the distance to beach was balcony was private and quiet. That was nice and relaxing.
This property was advertised as recently upgraded. The kitchen is beautiful.
appealing to me.
We had a good stay in Elviria, in this appartment. Beach short to this building complex was a plus. Also lot of nice restaurants in the region. Location of appartment was also very good, for visiting other nice places, like Mijas, Gibraltar, Ronda,... We also got lots of information from the host Miriam, and she was also very flexible and helpfull.
This house was great for a girl's getaway! The only thing I was disappointed in was that one of the bedrooms had 2 twin beds. The place is clean and in a great location. You practically have the beach to yourself on that end of the WB.

We loved Kroger! Great location and really nice condo. Very clean and up to date. Super comfortable bed in the master. Pretty view. Would definitely make a return visit.
Great property and quiet location. We really enjoyed our stay here and will definitely consider it again! The kitchen is very well stocked as are extra blankets and pillows. A very slight request/recommendation would be to include instructions on working the televisions and thermostats. It took a while to figure out that there was Roku capability amongst all the random remotes in the living room and master bedroom. And the thermostat could not be adjusted past a 2 hr hold. Other than those two minor details, everything else was wonderful!

After hours checkin very smooth,though could have used more description of what various security codes & keys were for. WIFI login incorrect, but we were able to figure it out. Condo very clean, nice updated furnishings/decor, and well appointed with all you need! More spacious than it looks in pictures and very comfortable for 6. Suggestions for improvements: thought charging more for skimpy amount of linens & more still if you wanted sheets put on your beds, was nickel & diming too much. Needed more "starter" shampoos/conditioner /lotion so each person has at least have one. BYO napkins.

Reviewer Comments:
The Kroger unit in Wrightsville Dunes E 1C has a good, well-stocked kitchen, good balcony furniture and a nice kids room with twin beds. But both the Master King bed and double bed need replacing -- both too soft and very sloped and/or sunken. Double bed should be a Queen to adequately accommodate a couple. The living room couch is disgustingly dirty, and very hard to enjoy for that reason. It needs to be reupholstered and cushions discarded. If these improvements were made, we'd be happy to return to this unit.

Reviewer Comments:
This is a great condo for a family looking for a bit more peaceful get away. Wrigthsville Dunes is located on the north end of the island and there is limited public parking. Despite this, there are some higher density condos and condotel's at this end of the island - I was pleased to see the beaches were no where near as crowded as the central downtown areas. Thus - this part of the island requires more driving than walking to things, but you are rewarded with more space on the beach strand. The condo itself is very well maintained. Easy access to elevator was great for the initial move in and the final move out. The AC worked extremely well - something I am always cautious about on those hot summer beach trips. Water pressure was high and everything simply worked well. The management company was great and provided great service at check in as well as responding quickly to a minor concern we had during the stay. Their attention to detail and speed of service can not be matched and I highly recommend not only the condo but also the company! We will be back soon I hope.
At check in, we were not given the code to access the building. We were only given the digital code for the unit itself.
We had to call the after hours phone line to get access to the building.
Once in the property, everything was OK for the most part with 2 exceptions.
First, the deadbolt lock on the sliding glass door was broken and fell off. Not too much of a safety concern since we were on the middle floor, but it made it nearly impossible to use the door.
The biggest inconvenience was the king mattress in the master bedroom. Not sure if there were no box springs or just a cheap mattress. Either way, the mattress was a bowl. The mattress rolled into the middle and also caused our feet to be above our head. We had to prop pillows throughout the bed to make it seem flat. We both left the vacation with sore backs.
For over $1200 for 2 nights (it was our 10-year wedding Anniversary) we expected to be comfortable. It's a shame too because everything else about the unit was perfect!

Reviewer Comments:
This condo is well equipped and decorated very nicely. This condo needs some TLC in fixing overused items such as -sink in the owner bath does not drain well, the toilet Paper holder in the owner bath is loose, the sliding screen to the outdoor deck kept falling off the track, the rings for the shower curtains and the other baths are pitted and rusted and the shared bath shower controls have no indication which is hot or cold. We originally had a different condo rented but we’re told it was not available after we booked it. We were given a choice of three others and chose the Kroger. We were not told that there would be renovation noise in the adjacent condo which was very loud the morning after we got there and lasted all day and parts of the 2nd day. The rental office offered nothing but an apology. We were not told that the pools were closed. It would have been delightful to sit on the pool deck.Love the complex however better communication from the realtor was expected but not delivered. Be prepared to make your own beds they claim Covid rules prevent it but how to Hotels do it?

We had a very enjoyable stay. The property was accurately described in the description. The property was very clean when we arrived. The kitchen was well stocked.The bed linens and towels had been cleaned by a cleaning service and were sealed in plastic. I appreciated that especially during these COVID times. My only suggestions are to clean the couch and chairs, or cover them with fitted covers that can be removed for washing. They are beginning to show some wear and tear. Also, replace the rugs in the bathrooms with memory foam type vinyl rugs that can be wiped off to cleaned. Overall, we had a wonderful trip. The weather was perfect with temperatures in the high 70's in December. We had a delicious anniversary dinner at Catch Restaurant. I would recommend the property to family and friends.

It was clean but carpets desperately needed to be cleaned. They had people working to put up hurricane shutters. Told us it would take 3-4 hours and it took 3 days of in and out. Master bed is VERY lumpy and NOT comfortable. This is about our 5th year staying in this unit and probably our last.
