Duneridge 2409

"This was our first time to wrightsville beach, the location of the unit and view were very nice, the pool at facility very nice and big.the unit was very clean, but definitely outdated and could use some upgrades for sure. Reasonable for the price. Cable did not work and Wifi really poor, a lot of restaurants within 5-10 minute ride, nothing really walkable, with some upgraded paint, furniture and repairs this unit could be Really good"

"Arrived to unlocked door. Closet door off the track. Two water bottles and paper towels behind nightstand in bedroom. New stove and microwave but microwave no hooked up so no exhaust fan in kitchen. Trashcan in cabinet track was sticking making it difficult to use. No ceiling fan or overhead light in one bedroom. Carpet in front bedrooms was dirty.Won't be going back to 2409 Duneridge again."

"The bones of the unit are good--nice layout, etc. but it needs a deep, deep cleaning and some updating. Kitchen was missing some basics like measuring cups and some organization."

We have since sent our maintenance team to address the lack of basics in the kitchen. We hope to welcome you back in the future for a better experience.

"We have been coming to Duneridge for over 15 years. We love it. We have had an assortment of units over the years. This unit, while on the prized 4th floor, was a disappointment. While the initial appearance looks nice, it clearly has not been updated and many fixtures/appliances are original. The cabinet for the garbage can is broken and hard to open. The stove is original - meaning 20+ years old. Countertops original. Floors original.
Kitchen equipment is original and needs to be replaced. Bathrooms need to be updated. The blender was probably 25 years old. The light i the bathroom does not work. The sliding glass door to the porch was difficult to open and there was no screen. The majority of updating wouldn't cost that much, so it makes you feel like the owner just doesn't care. "

"This was probably the 20+ year we have stayed in Duneridge, but the first time we have been on the 4th
(top) floor. It was magnificent.."

"Great location. Plenty of room for 3 adults and 1 child. Really easy check in/out. They were even able to accommodate us staying an extra day. Pool was really fun and close to the beach. Overall very happy. Only complaint is that for the price I would expect it to be cleaner. There was carpet except for the kitchen and bathrooms and it was very dirty. Dishes and silverware had to be rewashed before use b/c hardened food on many of them. I called to get a new comforter for our room b/c there were were stains on it that looked fresh. New comforter was delivered very quickly. "

"Very well maintained condo. A very comfortable family condo to enjoy. Pool and parking areas were spotless. Great beachfront balcony and views. Evident upgrades in the condo are recent."

"We had a wonderful stay on Wrightsville beach in the Duneridge condos with a beautiful 180 degree sea view.. "

"I have stayed at the Duneridge many times so obviously enjoy the location and amenities.
this particular condo was well furnished on the whole,but could have supplied a TV in master bedroom. Also the carpet was badly stained, which could have happened this season."

Manager Response:
We appreciate them letting us know about the carpet! We have gotten that cleaned. Hope to have them again next year!

"We love the Wrightsville Beach area and Duneridge is a wonderful property! We have stayed in several units in past years but this was the 1st time in 2409. The unit has stunning views for the 4th floor, the beach chairs and sand toys were a pleasant surprise but the unit itself is badly in need of updating. The carpet was filthy in the living room and had suspicious sticky spots in the master bedroom. The closets were half full of unused furniture and pictures and the bed in the Queen bedroom was a double bed!"

Manager Response:
8/20- The owner plans on cleaning carpets during the off season and we will address organization issues at that time. We hope to see this guest next year so we can find them a unit at Duneridge that better suits their needs. KMF

"Very nice location, spacious condo, the view is amazing!!!!!! The carpet in the condo needs to be cleaned. The water was undrinkable. Even our clothes smelled after washing in that water. Reservation people were excellent!! "

"We loved Wrightsville Beach. This condo had a great view -- 4th floor allows you to see over the dunes and across the sand. Just beautiful. If you like to surf, the Duneridge resort beach seems to be the place where many of the surf camps and lessons take place -- there are lessons going there all the time, it seems, perhaps because there is no lifeguard there, but also maybe because the surf conditions are pretty good. The unit itself was good, beds comfortable, all we needed for our stay with the exception of a vegetable peeler. The sliding door handle was broken on our arrival. We called on Saturday night and someone came by on Sunday to fix it. The unit was basically clean, though the AC intake grill was incredibly dusty and there was a lot of dust and small debris in the drawers of the bathroom vanity. As with many beach locations, the water tasted sulfurous and had a sulfurous odor. While not a reason not to go there, I wondered if there was a way to ameliorate it. "

9/3 So glad to see this guest enjoyed their stay! We appreciate their feedback on these small items, and will work to resolve all of them ASAP! CMM

"We had a good time together, we rented 3 units total but spent most of the time in 2409. The unit is well supplied, the furniture and beds are comfortable, the view is magnificent. The only thing that I would like to see changed is that the living room rug needs to be cleaned. That is not a reflection on the owner, but on previous guests."

Manager Response:
7/26 So happy to see this guest had such a great stay! This is a lovely home, we look forward to having them again. CMM

"This condo has a very dated, poorly functioning kitchen and older laundry appliances. The A/C went out repeatedly; sleep was impossible until we activated the reset on the unit. Only then would the space begin to cool. Finally, the twin beds were unusable for sleeping. They would be great at Gitmo!

PS
I stayed in another unit within this complex previously. It was beautifully appointed, clean, and extremely comfortable. So, yeah, maybe I would recommend this unit--then again, maybe not. "

Manager Response:
7/23 So sorry this guest was disappointed. Bed preferences unfortunately change for everyone, these owner do prefer a firmer mattress. We are always happy to resolve an issues, we unfortunately weren't aware of the AC during their stay. It is has been fixed now, hope to have them again! CMM

"Great location, our 6th time at Duneridge. This particular condo needs major updates. Original Kitchen, horrible mattresses, 1 TV, maybe a 25inch. 2 rooms without ceiling fans. Coffee Maker does not have proper carafe. No linens or towels. Could also use updated plates, cooking utensils, etc. would not recommend this unit. "

Manager Response:
Thank you for this feedback! The owner is planning upgrades this off season. Hope to have them again!

"Overall, it was a great stay at Duneridge. The condo's beds were not very pleasant and appliances were outdated. The check-in was later than the promised 4:00 and the agent was not the most pleasant to work with. Other than that, I would stay at Duneridge again."

Manager Response:
Glad they enjoyed this unit! Upgrades have been done and it is fantastic.
