Description

***As of March 9, 2024, the HOA informed us that they will be shutting down the indoor pool/hot tub area as of April 8th.
The work involves draining the pool (3 days); erecting scaffolding (1 full day) and then having the contractor come in and do the removal of the existing baffles and installation of the new baffles. The contractor estimates this could take 4-5 weeks to complete the phase of the work. Once the work is complete, the scaffolding will be removed; the pool will be filled back up, chemicals balanced and water re-heated. This takes a minimum of 3 days. They estimate the pool and hot tub will not be accessible until at least the second week of May if not later. All involved will do their best to ensure the work is done in as timely a fashion as possible, but there are factors that may be out of our control that could change the timeline. ***

Condo was very nice, well furnished and clean. Kitchen is nicely stocked with cookware. Appreciated the private parking under the building, like a garage just without the door. We also enjoyed the large open balcony. Staff at Bryant Real Estate were very nice to deal with as well.

The location was great, the pool was a must, and we couldn't ask for a better beach. We got a perfect set up anytime of day that we went out. We loved watching dolphins from our balcony. It was great.

Manager's Response

Jesse, We love when the dolphins make an appearance as well. The balcony is the perfect spot!

Another wonderful week at Bianchi! This condo is beautifully appointed in a serene environment. We've stayed at the property for the past 5-6 years and the owners keep the property well maintained and have made improvements over the years as well. Bryant RE was also very helpful as the wifi switched to a new account during our stay, they quickly dispatched a technician who got us reconnected.

Manager's Response

Lisa, We are happy to hear that you continue to love this property year after year! We hope to see you again next year!

The condo was nice and had all the necessary things in it, the view was excellent and the location great. The one issue was the sliders are very difficult to open. these Sliders need some TLC maybe cleaning the track or greasing the track etc. My mom could not open them.

Manager's Response

Mario, Thank you for your feedback on the condo. We are happy that you enjoyed the property and location! Maintenance has taken a look at the slider and made some adjustments to make it easier to open. We hope you will visit again soon!

My family had a wonderful time at Kure Beach when we stayed at the beautiful Bianchi condo. Plenty of room for the five of us to spread out and being right on the beach was wonderful. Had everything we needed to cook our own meals. If we stay again, I would rent beach chairs and an umbrella to sit on the beach with some shade.

Diane, We are happy to hear you and your family enjoyed the condo and location. Come visit again soon!

In a role it was born to play, the Bianchi Condo proved to be a hit for a family spending a week in Kure Beach. Everything was easy from renting to checking-in to checking-out. The chairs on the deck are amazing for watching the waves during the day or the stars at night. The condo was all around lovely and put in an amazing performance all the way until the fascinating “gear” clock on the wall told us it was time to go.

Manager's Response

What a lovely review Jordan! Thank you for taking a few moments to share your thoughts. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed this property, as it is one of our favorites as well. Please make your plans to come back and visit again soon.

The Bianchi is a great rental. Very comfortable, updated, fully stocked with everything you need for an easy stay. The kitchen is great compared to other properties we’ve seen at Ocean Dunes. We had so many mishaps. The Bianchi was the one constant good on our trip. Close access to the pool and beach access. We will book again next time we are in the area.

Manager's Response

Sharlana, We are delighted to hear that you loved Bianchi! It really does have a great kitchen! The Ocean Dunes community has so many amenities to offer including the outdoor pools, indoor pool, hot tub, and fitness room! Come back and see us soon!

This was our third time staying at Bianchi and it never disappoints.From all the stress of last year, upon entering Bianchi a feeling of rest swept over you with the view of the ocean before us. . This place is beautifully decorated and well stocked. Even though the winds were gusty on the beach with blowing sand, my husband and I were able to enjoy the ocean view from our balcony minus the sand:). We look forward to many more stays at Bianchi and feel it is becoming our home away from home.Thank you so much.

Manager's Response

Welcome back Ann! We're thrilled to see you decided to enjoy Bianchi! With the beautiful beach décor and the feeling like your home away from home on the beach, we understand why you choose to come back! We hope you were able to enjoy all the wonderful amenities just steps to minutes from the front door of this complex. Just down the road you will find the beautiful Fort. Fisher filled with so much history and sites you must see. Drive a minute extra and you will find our aquarium that offers an amazing otter exhibit this year! The location of Bianchi offers not only the chance to relax on the beach in paradise, but also the chance to explore the history and excitement of the Cape Fear. Thank you for allowing Bianchi to host your family vacation again, Ann! We're looking forward to hosting the next one!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dolphin Court, Ocean Dunes. Being right on the beach made all the difference. The two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo was exactly as advertised -- very comfortable, beautifully decorated, and located right on the beach. The spacious living room provided lots of good seating, with a large TV, with cable and Netflix, as well as a DVD player. The kitchen was newly-renovated with upscale appliances and was very well-equipped. Having a washer-dryer was certainly convenient, too.. The spacious decks off the living room and the front bedroom, provided the perfect spot to enjoy the sunrise. Kure Beach was a great location, definitely quieter than Carolina Beach, which was just up the road.

Manager's Response

Thank you for the wonderful review, Daryl! Bianchi is truly a must see! The ocean front deck and the location make this into a very desirable condo. With Ft. Fisher, the aquarium, and the ferry just a short drive away, Bianchi is a must visit! Thank you for choosing us for your beach vacation getaway! Looking forward to your next vacation with us.

We were in transition as we moved from Virginia to Colorado. The month we spent at Bianchi over Christmas was very good. The property is well maintained and situated right on the beach. We were able to relax and enjoy some much needed down time. Minor maintenance requests were handled immediately. Everyone was friendly and very helpful.

Manager's Response

Hi Mr. Robbins- Thank you for your kind review! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay at Bianchi during Christmastime. We hope you'll come down from Colorado to see us again!

This condo is amazing. You are so close to the beach it feels like you can touch it from the balcony. The unit is beautifully decorated; kitchen is well-stocked with all the right utensils; beds/pillows/seating are comfortable; parking was easy; wifi supported 3 people working/school. It's the perfect combination of comfort and luxury. This was our COVID getaway (we moved our bubble) and it was so easy to do so. Beach was quiet. Everything was simply amazing!

We had a great short stay at this well appointed unit. The top floor location was ideal, stunning ocean views from the living room, master bedroom and large balcony. The view felt like we were on a cruise ship. The unit is 2.5 miles from the Fort Fisher Ferry, (which for only $7.00 for a car and 2 passengers was a screaming deal!) We hopped on to go over to Southport and Caswell Beach for the afternoon. We enjoyed dinner in Wilmington. The unit itself was beautifully decorated, top line appliances, well stocked with kitchen utensils, and anything you would need. I would not only highly recommend the unit, but would no doubt stay again if the opportunity presented itself!

Manager's Response

Thanks for the great feedback, Joanne! Sounds like you were able to experience alot while here! Come back soon!

We loved our stay at Kure Beach. The condo was clean, updated, and downright beautiful. They have everything you can think of in the Condo. The man that lives downstairs gave us lots of tips of where to go and eat and sight seeing tips also. I would highly recommend staying here, as I would stay there again. Don't hesitate, make your reservation. You won't regret it!

Manager's Response

Angela,
Thanks for the great review! We are so glad you had a great vacation! Don't forget you can always make an advanced reservation to ensure your time at the beach in the same unit next year! We look forward to seeing you again soon!

This was our second year staying at Bianchi and it was just as wonderful as the first year. Was a bit disappointed that neither of the clocks were working properly. While this may seem trivial, I love the working mechanics of them, they may have needed new batteries but was afraid to touch them as they were not our property. The place is in excellent condition. Truly enjoyed the black out curtains in the master and living room as opposed to the vertical shade. Thank you. Looking forward to planning another stay.

Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Please feel free to contact the office if there are ever any issues, we will be glad to help to make your stay more enjoyable. We look forward to hosting you in the future!

The Bianchi unit at Ocean Dunes is outstanding! The unit is beautifully decorated with a full deck overlooking the ocean. The property is very well maintained, and the pool is small but nice. I would highly recommend Ocean Dunes to anyone looking for great accommodations and a relaxing atmosphere.

Crystal- we’re glad you enjoyed your stay at the Bianchi in Ocean Dunes Resort. This property does have the perfect deck for relaxing and looking out over the water! We hope to see you again !

The Bianchi was just wonderful! We've stayed in many condos in the Ocean Dunes community over the last 6 years and this is the nicest so far! It's very well equipped with plenty of seating inside and outside. The beds are comfortable, about a medium softness. There are some books, videos, and a couple of games in the home. The building is located between a beach walkway and a pool, perfect for a quick dip after a hot day on the beach. I can't wait to stay here again! Note to owner, you may want to update the couch cushions in a few years. They seem to be getting a bit worn. Also, check the blankets. there was one we used as a throw that had holes in it. Nothing at all that made a bit of difference to our stay. The couch is still comfy!

We had never been to Kure Beach but we like trying new places and took a chance. This condo is beautifully decorated, had everything we needed and had a gorgeous view. We enjoyed the beach, it was also beautiful and we weren't having to fight crowds for a spot on the beach. Everything was perfect until the last day when the maintenance man knocked on the door and said they would be cutting of the water in 20-30 minutes for about 4 hours. That was the only notice we received about this and it was a huge inconvenience. Had we been given better notice, we would have planned out last two days differently. Our plan was to sleep in, do the laundry that needed to be done and cook lunch and dinner there. I had just put my 1st load of laundry in the washer when he knocked on the door, he said 20-30 minutes but it was more like 10 because that 1 load didn't even finish. I had vegetables to wash to cook for lunch and couldn't, we had to use bottled water to fill the kuerig and brush our teeth. It turned out that the water was off for less than the 4 hours we were told but It was a HUGE inconvenience and it really ruined our last day. It would have been fine with notice, we aren't that difficult to deal with.

Manager's Response

We appreciate your feedback. Unfortunately we had no idea about the water shut off until you contacted us, or we would have let you know in advance, we apologize that it happened during your stay. The Homeowner's Association had to shut off the water to the building for a repair from a broken water line we were told when we called them. Although we did offer the use of another unit for you to go to during the time, but we are happy that the repair did not take as long as expected. This is a beautiful unit and hope that you will visit us again next year.

My only complaint is to update the what you need to bring list, we brought tons of stuff that we didnt even use, which was a pain to fit in the car along with our 3 children and all of our stuff. We would definitely not hesitate to rent again.

This property is in a good location and the view is fantastic! The condo was well kept and spotless! You should be aware that there is little or no beach available when the tide is high and that access to the condo is up three (short) flights of stairs. Easy to find and close to many great restaurants and attractions. Catch the ferry over to Southport and spend the day; you won't regret it! We will definitely be returning!

Condo was updated and very clean. The kitchen was stocked and the the separate wine fridge is very useful for vacationers. The view fro the condo is the best I've experienced in many years of renting. The location was perfect. 1 unit over from a private beach access and a 10 second walk to the pool. Half mile or so to the ft fisher center and just south of that is the aquarium and ferry to southport. We would love to have many more visits to kure beach.

Had a great time. Loved the location and community. Great walks up to Ft Fisher every morning. Only one recommendation. The threshold strip going into the master bedroom has a nail that sticks up and I cut my foot because you don't know it's there until you step on it. It should be fixed before someone (not so understanding) gets hurt and decides to be ugly about it. Other than that, it was great. Hope to come back.

I absolutely love this property and its location The condo is gorgeous and spotless. You are exactly 64 steps to the beach and the pool is a nice plus. My only concern is that the pool area needed some upkeep as far as peeling paint overgrown landscaping spider nests and the garbage was not emptied daily. Also there was a huge ant issue the whole week as well as a pony tail holder and a artificial nail that obviously broke off of someone's finger had been there ALL WEEK. Totally GROSS Whomever cleaned the condo did an AMAZING job as it was spotless and felt like home

We had a very enjoyable weekend at this beautifully furnished and decorated condo. We were on the second floor with the deck overlooking the ocean and the wonderful sound of surf when we had the doors open with the screens in use was our constant companion. There were a few small negatives - a faulty switch for the overhead kitchen light, a loose hinge for the kitchen corner cupboard, crumbs on the sofa bed mattress pad, which we padded with some of the twenty or more extra pillows in the bedroom closets, bathroom rugs that had not been washed before our stay ( I washed them in the washing machine which had a bad odor.) However, none of these issues negatively impacted our happiness at being in such glorious surroundings. Of course, we walked on the beach and out to the end of the pier (about 2-1/3 miles round trip), took pictures of the resident, very spoiled pelican. We enjoyed dinner at Michael's Seafood in adjoining town Carolina Beach. We would have liked to eat at the Shuckin' Shavk in Kure Beach(the fresh seafood looked awesome) but couldn't get a seat at 6:30 on a Saturday evening. We had a good time walking around Ft. Fisher park and reading about all the Civil War history that happened there. We also arrived in Kure Beach via the Ft. Fisher ferry from Southport, which I loved. All in all, we had a greatt time and would definately stay at Bianchi again.

Beautiful escape from the real world.

Myself my wife and young son had the pleasure of spending 7 days at the Bianchi condo and so wished it had been longer ( hindsight is a wonderful thing). The views are simply amazing. With quiet beaches even during peak times we could not really come down this more.
As we decided to Marry on kure beach (outside the condo turned out to be the perfect location at sunset ) we will most certainly be back and have no hesitation in recommending this beautiful decorated and spacious condo.

The Bianchi condo is a true home away from home! From the moment you step in and see the true oceanfront view, you will fall in love. This is our second year at Ocean Dunes and we really enjoy the complex and area. There had been much beach erosion as of late, but the northern end of the island (where Bianchi is located) has more sand and beach areas. The outdoor pool can be seen from the front door (but be warned that the indoor pool is not heated!)
Bianchi had been remodeled and is amazing. The kitchen is updated and very clean, there is pantry space for groceries, ceiling fans in all of the bedrooms and the master rain shower head is an added bonus.
We had a few issues that Bryant took care of quickly and with minimal interruptions to our vacation time. Check in and out was a breeze.
We will hope to stay again! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

We go to Kure beach every year with our family of four and look forward to it all year. We have been staying at the ocean dunes for the past 4 years. This condo was nicely updated however the cleanliness was not as we expected. Upon arrival we found personal items left in both showers, goes to show how well the showers were cleaned....not at all!! We did call Bryant realty and they were very nice to send someone over however all they did was collect the items out of the showers and leave!! No cleaning ever occurred!! We had to go through and do a cleaning on the condo ourselves!! I do not think the first thing you should have to do on vacation is clean the condo you are paying this much for. We love the area, prob will not stay with Bryant again unless they change their cleaning policy or companies. If I were the owner of this unit I would not be pleased either, blinds were broken off and just curled up in the corner. The bifold doors to the washer and dryer was broke as well. The unit really needed a good cleaning. Dust bunnies on the ceiling by the air vents and walls were dirty. Not what I expected for the price we paid. We left the place in better shape than when we checked in. Also had a half empty bottle of vodka on the counter when we arrived. Just not impressed at all but cleaned it ourself and moved on.

Manager's Response

Hi Jerrad- thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear about the state of the unit upon your arrival. We strive for perfection with our housekeeping, maintenance, and reservations staff, but at times fall short. This is one of those times. I can report that the cleaner who was responsible for getting this unit ready for check-in is no longer a part of our team. We apologize again for your underwhelming stay, but want to assure you that this is not our standard and is not something we tolerate. We hope you will give us the opportunity to prove that to you.

What a lovely little spot. The condo is not large, but has everything needed for a great getaway. We loved the large patio, and the amazing view with just a short walk to the ocean. The furniture is in great shape, and the condo is VERY clean and well maintained. The stairs were not an issue, as we thought they might be. My only negative comment would be the front bedroom with the two twin beds definitely needs a ceiling fan as the AC just doesn't work well back there. All-in-all though a great spot and well worth the cost with the proximity to the ocean. I would highly recommend it!

While we have stayed about seven times in Carolina Beach across several locations, this was out first time staying in Kure Beach.
We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the quiet, residential, family-oriented atmosphere of Kure Beach. The beach was a short walk from the condo and there was plenty of room on the beach to enjoy the ocean without feeling it was overpopulated.

The condo itself was well-appointed and the deck afforded an awesome view of the ocean...just spectacular listening to the surf. There was an issue with the A/C unit during our stay and the management company was quick to respond and courteous. They got the unit running again and an HVAC team was dispatched the next day to make the necessary repairs with a minimum of disturbance to us.

The location is great...short hop to Wilmington for evening excursions. Also took the ferry to Southport and hopped a ferry there to Bald Head Island for the day.

Other than that, the pool was nice and not too busy. We played tennis at the rec center once in the evening and that was fun. It would be nice if the condo outdoor pool was open a bit later to appreciate some quiet nighttime swimming but I also appreciate the residential nature of the area and wouldn't want to change that.

We would definitely consider visiting again.

We had a great time at the Bianchi Condo. The condo was nice and everything we needed was available. Stephnie at Byrant was great to work with at the last minute.

I do have one note for the unit. The floor at the master bedroom and master bath is weak. It is just inside and outside of the bathroom door. It makes a sound.I do some carpentry work. It will need to be addressed in the near future. I would have someone look at it.

We enjoyed our vacation. Thank you.
