We have rented from Bryant several times. We have alway been please with the customer service and they have always worked with us to find the perfect rental. Our lasted rental was a classic beach bungalow. The rental was super clean upon arrival.

We stayed at the Craft Lower Level Rental 11/27 to 12/4 at Wrightsville Beach but left early due to the poor rental conditions. For a 3 bedroom rental there was only 1 24 inch TV. No wide screen! The floors were cracked and covered with rug remnants. The lighting was the worst I have ever experienced. The toaster and toaster oven did not work. This unit needs work badly. It is ok if you are use to living in the projects but not up to rental standards. DO NOT RENTAL THIS UNIT.
What If
Nov 14, 2021 Report
Great experience overall with this company. Only advise is if you have concerns about cancelling your trip, make sure you purchase trip coverage through their specific company. We purchased the trip coverage for $200 marketed through vrbo and bryant would not accept it. So just be careful when you purchase coverage, we assumed while booking it was all the same but apparently it was not. Outside of that, which I understand is not their fault, service was excellent. Fast to respond to any needs and very organized with check in and check out. Would highly recommend.

The unit's apartment number is not clearly visible, not reflective and it is difficult to see especially at night. Please confirm that the unit has charging ports/stations available for all electronic devices i.e. smartphones, laptops, tablets and cameras. Unfortunately, we did not realize this until our devices were at 5% battery life. It would have been nice to have known prior to arrival to avoid having to purchase them. Be sure to check the balcony as well as the seating accommodations outside. As we walked onto the balcony, we found a dead bird! Yikes! The chairs were in need of WD40 to
