My husband and I enjoyed our stay at 2113A Surfrider. The location and views were outstanding and the deck space comfortable and inviting. The oven, microwave, and dishwasher were new and all appliances worked well. The furniture was budget grade, but comfortable. The surfaces were clean.
I would stay there again, but recommend a good cleaning of all walls because they were scuffed and had finger prints in several places and looked dingy (maybe end of season and many kids?); replacing the rusted out medicine cabinet in the 2nd bathroom as well as the towel rack, which fell down and proved to be unusable; replacing the master bedroom curtains which were very shabby/dirty, tacking down the round carpet under the dining table as it rolls up and is a trip hazard; replacing the AC vent filter which was grossly dirty — way overdue; generally cleanup/replace some of the rusted grates and fixtures; and a guide on how to use the tv would be super helpful (there doesn’t seem to be cable, be prepared to use your Hulu and Netflix accounts for entertainment). The internet is slow. The tennis courts at the rec center are rough, though there are two nice ones at the park in Kure Beach and at Carolina Beach, too, not far away. Be prepared and don’t bring your Hummer — the parking for two is tandem and tight. A little TLC and paint would go a long way to spiff this place up. If you need luxury or updated fashionable decor, this place is not for you. If you have kids and don’t want to worry about breaking expensive things, this place is for you. And, the best, if you don’t mind budget quality (but comfortable) furnishings and decor, the location is totally worth the stay for the price. We loved it and will go back.
