Recent Oak Island guest reviews

We thoroughly enjoyed our two-night stay at the Sandy Swan! This house was perfect for the two of us when we traveled to Wilmington for a wedding; we much preferred this setting to a more urban one. It is nicely decorated and the kitchen has everything needed to prepare meals. The house is spotlessly clean as well which is always important to us. The outside provides several areas to enjoy -- front and back porches, patio, fire pit and hot tub! Kayaks, bicycles and beach equipment are also a nice plus. We appreciated the convenient location of The Sandy Swan as it is a short walk/ride to beach access and 5-minute drive to Oak Island's shops and restaurants. We'll definitely be back!

This is a great place. We especially enjoyed the large spaces as well as the ping pong table and corn hole amenities. Beach access and pickle ball courts are within walking distance. Overall, great experience!
