Station One - 3C Island Daze

"My biggest complaint is with the kitchen. Dishes and pans had been put away dirty and much of the kitchen equipment was unusable. The kitchen knives were completely dull, the vegetable peeler wouldn't peel anything, etc., etc. I gave up on the idea of actually cooking a meal even though it's something I enjoy doing for family while on vacation. There was a bad wind storm one night that blew one of the hurricane shutters halfway off its track. We promptly reported it to the management company and were assured that someone would arrive to fix it that morning. When we left three days later, the shutter was still hanging and no one had come to fix it or called us with an update. We were afraid the shutter might completely fall off and hit something or someone on the ground below. Thank goodness that didn't happen - at least while we were there. A wonderful location, but the condo needs lots of attention."

"The unit was very clean, bright and comfortable. The location was nice with a terrific view of the ocean. The only issue we had was that they gave us the wrong size sheets for a king bed. It was a holiday weekend and we left messages 3 days asking for sheets before they finally brought the right sheets for the bed. Other than that we enjoyed our stay very much and would rent this unit again."

"My husband and I were building a home in Wilmington. While it was being built we decided to move from Rhode Island, begin to enjoy our new state and be around for the build of our home. We reached out to Intravoastal and Helen sent a list of available condos to rent at Wrightsville- the owners of Island Daze accepted us to rent from Nov 1-April 30. We were so excited! But even more so when we arrived! The condo has everything you could possibly need, very nice and comfortable furniture- wonderful beach atmosphere! The view from the balcony made us feel we were living on a cruise ship most of the time. From the day we moved in until day light savings time, the sun rose directly in front of our balcony and after daylight savings, it rose slightly to our left. The moon, too was a ball of orange directly in front of us overlooking the most gorgeous ocean! I loved being on the third floor- just high enough for a magnificent vista, not too high so as to be too windy and cold to be out on the balcony. Each month was fabulous! If you can treat yourself to a week or more at Station One and specifically Island Daze, you will not be disappointed! The location getting off island and the beach are ideal. The crew and manager of Station one are wonderful and responsive. The crew at Intracoastal are likewise caring and responsive and wonderful! We will be back!! "

"This is a 3rd floor condo in a pretty large condo building. We loved the condo itself, it fit us great with two large bedrooms and two large bathrooms. Both showers only (no tub) and the showers are very spacious. There is a balcony with storm door across it (which we unfortunately had to use, but it served us well!). Balcony and outdoor furniture could have used a cleaning before we came, it didn't seem like it had been cleaned in awhile, especially the floor, and we wanted to keep shoes on out there. But we enjoyed it, and the view, immensely. Kitchen with standard, good quality appliances. Nice comfortable living room with decent floor space for the kids to play with their trucks and blocks. Unit inside was clean clean clean. Shared pool was simple but great, we used it daily, and there is a nice large outdoor shower/hose area with plenty of room for all the guests in this building to rinse off on return from the beach. Beach gets very crowded here, but that's Wrightsville for you, and to be expected with all the guests from this large of a building sharing a strip of sand. It's a wide beach so it was still totally fine. We enjoyed our stay so much and would rent here again!"

"The overall experience at 3C was fine. I was a bit disappointed with Intracoastal's response to a complaint I made the first full day in our rental. I called to discuss a smell issue, and since it was Sunday, they only had one person on staff, and no cleaning staff available. Understandable. The person took a message and said someone would get back to me the next morning. I never heard from anyone. No follow-up. The issue sort of went away, so I didn't want to waste any more time pursuing it. But the lack of follow-up was disappointing. I would expect more from a rental agency."
