Unfortunate Neglect

I’ll just state the facts and leave my opinion out of the review…4.5 hours in the car with 2 kids. Cold groceries picked up and ready to start our vacation…1. Picked up the keys for an after hours arrival. Arrive to the condo around 8:30 PM. The key did not work. The emergency line did not work. After multiple tries to call the emergency line and waiting for 30 minutes I decided to try to call one of the real estate agents with the company to see if she could get a message to the property manager. She was actually wonderful to deal with and I did get a call fairly quickly. After an additional 30 minutes to an hour, the property manager showed up apologizing that we were given the wrong keys. She also gave me a free four topping large pizza coupon from Domino’s as an apology. 2. We actually had two wonderful beach field days with other friends and made great memories.3. My oldest daughter, one of six children that played in the same sand and sat outside at the same spot and times ended up with bug bites all over her body. Not one of the other six adults or five children had any bites at all. She slept in a separate twin size bed. We ended up leaving a day early as I could not let my child sleep in a bed that had something in it. No definitive answer as to bedbugs or fleas.4. Emailed the information to intracoastal Realty with no response at this time. Still waiting and hoping for a call at the least.

Sand Pebbles

This was our third stay in Carolina Beach but our first at Sand Pebbles (and our first with Intracoastal). We picked it because our friends had already reserved a condo at Sand Pebbles, which was our priority. We were extremely satisfied with the smooth, quick check-in process (our place was even ready early, but we were still on the road). Twice during our stay, we had to reach out to Intracoastal: once because we locked ourselves out (oops!) and once because the unit’s laundry wasn’t working. In both cases, the response was timely and efficient, The condo itself was a bit dated (the couch and bed were not the most comfortable due to age and wear, there was a gash in one of the bathroom ceilings, one of the bathtub fixtures was half falling off).

Bed bugs plus poor costumer service

The beds had bed bugs! The costumer service was very poor being the fact that we had an emergency our first night (not a 911 emergency) where we wanted to contact somebody from the rental and we weren’t able and they never contact us back! I returnd parking passes and they say i didn’t later on (2 weeks later) somebody contacted me about the issue but im not stay there again.

Great location

The condo was in a great location. It was very easy to walk to the beach and there were plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The other guests on the property were quiet and that was very much appreciated. However, the master bedroom was so bright at night. Blackout curtains would be much appreciated. My husband and I considered switching rooms with our daughter because the second room was darker though not by much. We did end up hanging additional comforters to block the light. The carpets were filthy. The bathrooms needed another cleaning, too. There were two small 8in frying pans in the kitchen and nothing bigger and there were no baking sheets.

Great location & view but condo was not clean

The furniture in the living room & the carpet in both bedrooms are filthy. Bring your own pillows because the ones provided are flat, lumpy & dirty. None of the lamps in the living room worked, the tv in the 2nd bedroom didn't work, there was no lights in the 2nd bedroom & there's holes in the wall. The balcony wasn't cleaned, there was sand all over it (carpet on an outdoor balcony?) & the beach chairs & boogie boards were all rusted or broken. The guest bathroom shower drains super slow & has been for awhile by the looks of the mold line on the shower liner. The location & view of this condo is great but it needs some deep cleaning & updating.

Nice vacation spot

Had a wonderful time in Carolina beach. The condo is located in the perfect area. Short walk to beach through private walkway. It is also about a 10-15 minute walk to boardwalk. There are restaurants across street and a gas station only a couple minutes walking distance away. Condo faces pool but you can still see ocean. It is on first level but you must still go up one flight. Had difficulty opening door upon arriving. One set of keys would not work and of course this was the one that I tried multiple times. At first, I thought I was at the wrong condo but finally used the other key. Upon entering we found a bag of used laundry which was pretty gross. I dragged this bag outside. The laundry company had left our clean linens outside and had not picked up the last occupants linens. I complained about this and the key issue the next morning. They promptly picked up dirty laundry and brought us a key that worked. I also had issues with the correct wifi password but they corrected this also. We really enjoyed our time here after the initial bumps. The only thing I would change are getting more comfortable furniture for living area, removing carpet in bedrooms. (They were badly stained) and recommend a deep cleaning. The high touch surfaces were clean but property needed to have deep cleaning every so often. I would also recommend room darkening window coverings in the main bedroom. It was difficult to sleep even during night due to flood lights shining in. Also it was very warm during the night. It really needs to have ceiling fans in bedrooms to make things more comfortable.

Nice stay with nice updates

We had a little confusion with the realty company checking us in but once we got over that it was a good stay. The living room furniture is probably next to be replaced and a full size couch would be great. Would definitely stay again. Thanks!

One of the better Sand Pebble units

Owner needs to know that all cooking utensils may need to be replaced. We had to buy a new pot and skillet because the ones in the unit were not usable. Other than that we enjoyed the unit.

Great place to stay for easy access to beach, pool, and places to eat. We enjoyed our stay!

Our family of 5 had a great time. We enjoyed being able to walk out and go to the beach and pool. Also had several restaurants and ice cream places within walking distance. The condo is showing some age but had all basic amenities. It had a bit of a musty smell but I suppose that comes with humidity and was nothing some air freshener didn’t fix. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would come back!
