Donovan's Out of the Blue, hotel in Oak Island

Donovan's Out of the Blue is located in Oak Island, just a few steps from Long Beach and 30 miles from USS North Carolina. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking, and free...

The dog friendly layout and fence were amazing. The elevator was nice to have. Having 2 decks was my favorite part. The beach was very clean (minus jellyfish, but it's the season for them) and not crowded. All in all, it was a lovely trip and we hope to come back!

Island Joy - Newly Renovated/Walk to the Beach!, hotel in Oak Island

Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. Outdoor seating is also available at Island Joy - Newly Renovated/Walk to the Beach!.

The home was cozy, clean and so well decorated. The main shower… well… it was magical. I took a shower twice a day or more because I could not get enough of that shower. We came down to visit friends and they also fell in love with the property making the comment that it was one of the nicest homes on the island. The open floor plan allowed for a flow into each room giving the home a much bigger experience. Don’t let the small exterior fool you. The beds are SUPER comfortable. We’ve stayed in many rental homes and this place ranks number one of all the places we’ve ever stayed. Since our friends moved to the island a year ago we are planning multiple trips per year to come down and visit them and we sure hope this place is available. We will be returning. The hosts are also the kindest people to communicate with. Quick responses and made themselves available at any time for any issues.

    Good location, all facilities worked well, no hassle handoff or exit, good basic beach cottage. It would help to have specific instructions with detergent, light switch for required use of the laundry facility. We enjoyed our stay very much!

    The cottage had a nice layout, was decorated tastefully and was very clean. It had a very cute back patio although we didn't have time to enjoy it this trip. Having a code for the door was perfect, no hassle with getting a key.

    We loved how beautifully designed the cottage is. It is very peaceful and well thought out. Every detail is perfect. We felt right at home and would love to stay at this cottage again the next time we travel to Oak Island! Also our contact with the host, Mike was excellent. He made sure we had everything that we needed and responded quickly to any questions we had. He also left helpful notes in the cottage of things that we might like to do on the island, which turned out to be great suggestions!

    I LIKE THE MARSH WITH THE WATER CANAL TOUCHINFG THE BACK YARD. MY WIFE AND I HAD HOURS OF FUN FISHING AND CRABBING. WE HAD 2 FRIED FISH DINNERS AND 2 CRAB MEALS WITH OUR CATCHES FROM THE CANAL. I LIKE THE PICTURES HUNG THROUGHOUT THE COTTAGE AS WELL AS THE CERAMIC ITEMS. THE DECORATIONS GAVE A VERY NICE BEACHY FEELING TO THE COTTAGE.
