We stayed at the property Salt & Light unit 526-A the week of July 4th 2026. The house has a great…read morelocation and is directly across from a public beach access. Plenty of room for extended family. A few opportunities exist however: most of the doors are not lockable for the bedrooms, the outdoor shower is only lockable from the outside, the mattresses for both king size beds need to be replaced ( very uncomfortable and a must for the owner), and the pool requires attention with respect to a slow leak that the pool maintenance worker mentioned to us on Monday ( two days after check-in) which is also a must to fix.

After renting the same house for 20 years (and 5 more years at another house) through Sun Realty,…read morethey have booked our house out from underneath us for next year, while we are still here in it on vacation. It has always been a policy that the current renter has first option to book for next year. This policy I believe is pretty standard throughout all rental companies, but Sun Realty! We have been informed that it is now first come first serve and we need to change our weeks. No, we had to change realtors. We're charged a cleaning fee (WHY?), and for what! Every year I need to wash EVERYTHING in the kitchen before we can use anything. Things were so greasy that they almost fell out of your hands. We have a king size matress pad on a queen size bed. At least we had one. Have arrived to no matress pads or wrong size. No shower curtain, vaccuum cleaner that had a broken belt, so you know that nothing was cleaned. Had a toilet that wouldn't flush, and the list goes on and on over the years and nothing has improved. If anything, it's worse!!! If I could rate Sun a -10 I would! They are a terrible company to deal with and they don't care at all about their guests! All they want is the money! NEVER USE THEM AND I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE!!!! WISH THE OWNERS COULD SEE THIS AND KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO THEIR GUESTS!

A Stark Contrast to Their Own Promises !!…read more My parents rented this property for our long-awaited family reunion -- 14 of us, including relatives who flew in from Hawaii. We were excited to spend the week together in what looked like a beautiful and spacious home, but the experience was unfortunately full of red flags -- from safety concerns to management's dismissive response. Serious Safety & Cleanliness Concerns: * The deck had multiple exposed nails, which caused injuries -- including a cut foot. * The pool gate slammed shut with extreme force. It actually struck my young niece, leaving her hurt and shaken. * The outdoor bathroom was dirty and unusable from the start. * There were visible roaches in the home when we arrived. * The outdoor shower, which was advertised as a feature, was filthy and completely unusable. Disruptive Conditions That Weren't Disclosed: * Construction was happening on both sides of the house all week, bringing loud noise and disruption every day. * We were never informed about this in advance, even though the reservation had been made months prior. Unacceptable Response from Management: When we shared these issues, the president of the management company responded with zero accountability. Rather than showing any concern, he told us we should've reported safety hazards like protruding nails during our vacation. After we left, their technician confirmed that eight nails needed to be repaired -- validating our concerns. Instead of offering any resolution, the president accused us of "extortion tactics," which was insulting and unprofessional considering the legitimate issues we raised. A Stark Contrast to Their Own Promises: What made it even more frustrating is how the company promotes itself. Their website claims: "Experience the Shoreline Difference and see why we are rated #1 in Guest Satisfaction! As our guest, you are our family and will be treated to the best in hospitality!" That was far from our experience. We were treated more like an inconvenience than "family," and safety clearly wasn't a priority. Bottom Line: For over $6,500, we expected a safe, clean, and welcoming environment. What we got was a property with hazards, misrepresented amenities, and a management team unwilling to take responsibility. I would not recommend this rental -- or this company -- to anyone looking for a reliable or professional vacation experience.

We have found that smaller is better on so many levels from attention to cleaning to maintenance details. Deep cleaning occurred on a high level with ShorelineOBX and mandatory winter maintenance protocol was followed to prevent issues from occurring with the Beach House during the rental season.
