About this property

Ocean Front Condo - Beautiful beach and views

Heart Key Home is on the ocean with spectacular views. We are located on the upper level of a two story building with all rooms on one level. We feature four large bedrooms with four bathrooms (one shower/tube is jack-in-jill), plus an outdoor shower. The large kitchen with top of the line appliances and double oven has enough space for creating large family / group meals that will be remembered. There is seating for four at the counter and the reclaimed wood dining table can seat up to 10. There is a TV in the living room, while the seating is focused on the ocean. The open concept allows ocean views from the kitchen, dining and living spaces. The covered porch is an excellent place to watch the ocean and relax in the shade. This home is new to our family and we have put many hours bringing back the beauty. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do. (This is the top level of a two unit building). This winter we added street side stairs for safety and convenience. Please check out our new listing of the lower level under #1715873.

Perfect family getaway for beach / race weekend

We chose this location for the abundant bedrooms/bathrooms and proximity to the beach where we came for a half marathon. This was a perfect choice for 6 adults and 6 kids. Gorgeous ocean views in a nicely finished, spacious setting. The easy access to the beach and included beach chairs, toys, etc. made this a no-hassle stay. Will definitely come back!

Living on the Porch

Beautiful view of the ocean. Well maintained and equipped for a week of living on the beach and enjoying beautiful ocean view. Well equipped for our family of 8 and plenty of room for dinner with 9 other family members during our 35th year at OIB! Already made our reservation for 2025!

Great place to get together with friends and family

The house was cleaned, very spacious, and well-maintained and also great view of the beach (happened to see Sun rise and set from the deck). There was 3.5 bathrooms. We had a great time out there during the New Year celebration.

Family gathering

My children, grandchildren, and myself gathered for a couple days to celebrate our Christmas. The bedroom setup accommodated us perfectly and all beds were comfortable. The beach view is wonderful. The kitchen is well stocked and it is great to have all linens provided. The hosts were very responsive.

Love OIB

Have stayed in various condos on OIB FOR 34 years. The property we had this year was the best! Right on the beach, gorgeous ocean view and a beautiful breeze all week long. How good? We've already reserved for next July! OIB is a perfect place for a family vacation.

Family beach getaway!

We enjoyed our stay at this property. My husband and I along with our adult children and spouses, and parents (in their 80s) stayed with us. The ease to and from the beach was great! My father who is 81 and has COPD was able to utilize the elevator when he was feeling “winded”. We thoroughly enjoyed all the amenities : large kitchen and refrigerator, large dining table, comfortable living room, comfortable beds, large washer and drier, beautiful porch with rocking chairs and view of the beach, fire pit and corn hole, beach chairs with wagon to transport to and from the beach. The umbrellas were a little aged and breaking from salt water exposure and sand but we easily rented a shimbumi shade from the beach store down the street. I highly recommend this property!

Excellent location and property

We had six adults staying here and never felt crowded. Everything was as advertised and very nice. Location was fantastic and nice job by Mary with all communications. Water pressure in the kitchen was very low and remember to bring your own soap and shampoo. Please don't expect the elevator to work as the parts have been on back order for many months.

Amazing vacation

The house looks like the pictures and better. Very clean and well equipped. Beds are comfortable and plenty of towels and linens. You can find everything you might need for a family vacation, including kids toys, beach wagons, bikes, sand toys and swimming boards. We enjoyed the beach panoramic view and accessibility to the Beach. Mary is very responsive and helpful. Will come back for sure.

Absolutely wonderful stay!!!

Great house/ condo. Everything was better than shown. Ocean front porch was beautiful and we all have wonderful memories congregating there. Close beach access right beside house. Was able to get our Mom to the beach in a beach wheelchair. Via that beach access. Loved every thing about it. Especially the host. Mary was the best!!!

Wonderful long weekend girls getaway!

Loved the house! Everything was very convenient. Love the personal touch and the home away from home feel. The only issue we had was no hot water in the shower in Room B. We let it run for over 10 minutes on three separate occasions and it never would turn warm/hot. It wasn't a big problem but just wanted to let you know for future guests. It was a wonderful little getaway! Thank you again!

Our best beach vacation yet!

My family and I just stayed at this property for a second time. We were so impressed with it when we stayed there for a few nights over spring break that we knew we had to come back for a full week over the summer. This home is spacious and beautifully updated. The kitchen and dining area are perfect for big families. We love that the property is fully stocked with beach supplies (beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, towels, paddle board, boogie boards, bikes, etc.). The views of the ocean are breathtaking. It is really relaxing to sit on the porch, feel the warm breeze, and watch the waves. The property owners have been amazing for both of our stays. They are extremely attentive. They even sent us gifts when there was a small delay on the initial linen service. They go above and beyond to make sure each guest has a wonderful stay. We can’t wait to come back to OIB and stay here again.

Quick Trip

We only stayed two nights, but didn’t want to leave! The kitchen is STOCKED if you like to cook; tons of pots, pans, dishes, etc. (We went out to eat for our meals.) The back porch was our FAVORITE spot! The home also came with all the beach gear you could need. There were even beach umbrellas! The home had Kleenex and toilet paper and paper towels and hand wash; so nice to not have to worry about packing those things! The elevator was great for my 75 year old mother. There were only four of us, so the house had plenty of room. Even with more people, the house is perfectly spacious, with each room having its own toilet. Great feature! The beach has a TON of shells, so we were able to bring some home as a souvenir. We highly recommend Maria’s! We had pizza and calzones delivered our first night. We ate at Sharky’s the second evening, and enjoyed the shrimp pasta and views. Ocean Isle Creamery is always a yummy treat. The owner is so kind and extremely responsive. We would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Hardtke

Host profile image
This is a family home own by Dan & Vicki Hardtke along with our parents Mary Hardtke. We reside in MN and WI respectively. We got bit by the Ocean Isle bug when visiting our neighbors that moved from MN to Ocean Isle Beach. We visited during Oyster Fest in 2015 and fell in love with the location. We envision many years of our daughters, friends and family relaxing and creating special memories.

Why they chose this property

The views and direct beach access are beautiful. Secondly, the large kitchen and open flow through the dining and living area was exactly what we were looking for.

What makes this property unique

Linens and towels are provided as well as all paper products. We have placed a few of our personal beach items in the storage area, such as a few bikes, beach chairs, beach umbrella, beach sand toys and various balls (football, volleyball..), feel free to use them.
