House was nice and beach access was easy. On the west end of the island, so a bit of a drive to groceries and shopping (but nice for being away from it all). Enjoyed our stay. Owners were easy to communicate with and responded quickly to questions.

Beautiful home, wonderful vacation

We had a wonderful vacation at A Sand Dollar Dream. The house is beautifully decorated, clean, with incredible beach/ocean views and access! We had 9 people from ages 3-58 and this house accommodated everyone well including toys, games, and movies for the young kids and books, quiet spaces, and a fully equipped kitchen for the adults. There are also at least 10 beach chairs at the property which made it so nice not to have to travel with ours. Mike was incredibly kind and hospitable. He was promptly responsive and accommodating anytime I reached out. We would 100% recommend and stay at this property again. The only things I would point out is that there are several stairs with the majority of the rooms on the 2nd floor and the kitchen/living on the 3rd. This wasn't a problem for us, but if you have someone in your party that has difficulty with repetitive stair climbing it's just something to consider. You also have to bring your own bed linens and towels.

Loved our beach va-cay!

The Sand Dollar Dream was a great place for our family of ten, 6 adults and 4 children. I loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom, and that the outside shower had hot water! The location was perfect; the beach near the point was uncrowded. We had perfect weather and a great time! The kitchen was the best stocked of any vacation rental I have had. The only drawback to this rental was having to provide linens.

Beautiful house. Perfect location.

A Sand Dollar Dream is a beautiful beach house in a perfect location! It had everything we needed for our family of ten. The kitchen is well equipped. The bedrooms are spacious, each having its own bathroom. There was plenty of space for our adult children to have some privacy, and a large open living/kitchen/dining area for our family to be together for meals, movies, and games. The accommodations were even better than expected... this is truly a beautiful home! Mike was friendly and quick with communication. The dryer was not working properly when we arrived, and the owner resolved the issue the same day we notified him. We would definitely consider renting this beach house again, and will recommend it to others. Thank you Mike and Kim for sharing your lovely home with us!

Three-timers!

This was our third stay at A Sand Dollar Dream. Needless to say, we love this house! Comfortable beds, a well-stocked kitchen, a cozy living room area, great deck space, and amazing views--what more could a person ask for? Mike is so friendly and super responsive to questions and concerns--he and Kim are wonderful hosts. Beach access is a bit more difficult than it was in the past--persons with mobility issues may have some difficulty with the steepness of the dune path, but by no means does this affect this lovely home's 5-star rating! Thank you for sharing A Sand Dollar Dream with us!

Great Location Great Kitchen

I would stay here again! The house was clean and had a great architectural look. It could easily hold two whole families with plenty of room. I liked having the guests on the 2nd level and us on the 3rd with the kitchen. I can’t stress enough how awesome the kitchen is stocked. I cook at home and like pots of different sizes and all the necessary utensils. I LOVE the six-high burner stove top. We have the same brand at home. I seared steaks and hamburgers and made two colossal seafood boils on this stove. We had another family over for July 4th, and we had 13 people eating at the dining table and two more extensive counters. Never felt crowded. We love this part of the island; not crowded. So, don't tell anyone! The house also had a closet of beach chairs and a few umbrellas. We brought all the extras like hand soap, dish soap, garbage bags... But a few additions were around if needed. Overall I would rent again.

Thanks to an easy rental process, timely and useful communications with our gracious landlords, our family beach trip was a huge success! The house was terrific for our entire group. Its location and many amenities makes it a real standout in a very popular ocean front community. We all look forward to returning again to this home away from home.

A Sand Dollar Dream

I was really excited when I found this house listed on VRBO. I thought it would be perfect for a family reunion, and it was! The house was exactly as described and pictured, except that the dishes and cookware were superior to anything else I've encountered in a rental. Mike was always available for communication and to fix any problem we had (only one minor one.) We had an extra special treat our last day of vacation. A clutch of loggerhead turtles hatched right next to the plot of beach we had claimed. Conservationist staff was on hand to aid the process. Sixty-two babies made it to the ocean that day, and we were there to see it all. I highly recommend A Sand Dollar Dream. The only reason I gave it a 4 for cleanliness was that there was a little sand in my bed that I had to remove before making the bed. You won't be disappointed in this house.

Perfect Family Getaway!

We stayed at A Sand Dollar Dream and it was truly the perfect house for our two families with small children. The property is exactly as described and as shown in the pictures. Mike was incredibly responsive to any inquiry. The house is perfectly located where you get pretty open beach space right behind the house and the windows/deck provide amazing water views all day and is just a quick drive to the point to change up the beach scene and look for shells. It's not easy to tell in the pics but accessing the beach would be a little challenging for those with physical limitations as you have to walk up and over the dunes (very short walk, just a hill that would be hard for some). Overall we are so happy with our stay and would definitely come back again!

We loved this property. The view was breathtaking. Working with the owners was easy and they were fantastic. We loved being able to easily head to the beach and go back and forth to the house as needed. The area had plenty of access to stores without being overly touristy like Myrtle or OBX. Definitely a must repeat home and location.

Picture perfect and more

The views! From the kitchen/living room and the 2nd floor queen bedrooms are amazing. Surprisingly clean given it is ON the beach. Coffee maker/ keurig combo was very clean. There are no longer stairs down onto the beach so even more accessible, very easy to walk around the dune, perfect for stopping off to rinse feet and take outdoor shower. Plenty of space to spread out on the beach, no crowds. Only a short .5-1 mile walk to the Point. My 70 year old parents found the 3rd floor bed extremely comfortable. I can’t say enjoy good things about this place. Mike was easy to communicate with and very helpful with last minute questions. Best VRBO experience on oak island in the last 7 years
