  • Great Location Needs Updated

    2/5

    Check-process was easy, proximity to beach was great, reasonably priced. Issues; The full size mattress was either broken or damaged. The imbalance of mattress made it impossible to sleep on that side of bed (slump in the middle). When contacting the owner they were polite but then sent some one who entered while not there and then told it wasn't an issue. The bed needs replaced. Other issues. (curtains are transparent no privacy). Very limited on useable towels, minimal bedding linens no spare or additional. Would recommend adding better quality towels and usable linens. It appears the place is a work in progress and hopefully updated in the near future. You're paying for beach proximity and that's about it.

    The best part was the location. So close to the beach and accessible to those who have difficulties with stairs

    Property is dated and a bit worn down but acceptable. Space was.good for 2 people and our dog, that we crate when away, any more and it will be tight accommodations. Shower stall is quite small and.some larger people or clostrophobics may find it too small to work but worked fine for us. Public beach access is right accross the street, the pier a couple blocks and grocery store a couple blocks more.

    If your just looking for a place to sleep and shower, your not going to find a better deal in Emerald Isle, in season.

  • Meh...

    3/5

    The good... The porperty is only a block from the beach. Short drive to multiple restaurants/stores. Allowed dogs. The bad.. Everything in the house was covered in sand when we arrived. The front door has mold on the weatherstriping. Multiple of the drop-ceiling tiles seemed like they were about to fall down along with looking wet or like they were previously wet. The listing made it seem as though there was a private walkway to the beach, there was not. All around a lot smaller than the pictures made it seem.

    Manager's Response:

    From the owner: Hi Melanie, we couldn't accommodate your early check-in request, due to the busy season. There was no sand, mold, or issues with ceiling tiles during our pre-arrival check, nor was any evidence presented to the contrary. We thoroughly inspect and photograph 1 Ocean Fun before each guest's arrival. We wish you had contacted us as we sent you 7 messages before and during your stay.
    -We are glad you enjoyed the proximity to the beach and the convenience of nearby restaurants and stores, as well as the ability to bring your dogs.
    -While there is no private walkway to the beach, 1 Ocean Fun is just 30 yards away from beach access, with two walkways clearly noted in the listing. We urge guests to thoroughly read the listing to ensure the property meets their expectations.

    We do all we can to make the best possible stay and look forward to hosting many satisfied guests at 1 Ocean Fun.
