We couldn’t have asked for a better rental experience! The owner has thought of (and stocked up on) everything you could possibly need while on a beach getaway. We had plenty of towels, welcome snacks, and lots of toiletries to use during our stay. The location was fabulous- right near public beach assess and plenty of restaurants were nearby. I highly recommend this property and we will definitely book it for our next stay at Carolina beach.

It is a great location. Beach only a couple blocks. The boardwalk shops/bars too. Breakfast place beside it. Had supper across the street with outdoor seating and a band. When we had an issue (out of their control) got immediate response. Only negative is the pool, while great to have, was dirty with bugs and leaf debris and no netting or anything to help clean it out.

Just Right!

Our stay at the condo was great. The hosts thought of everything! We appreciated that the location was walking distance to the beach and that it was quiet during the evenings and night. We were very comfortable at the condo, felt safe and near to many wonderful places to eat. We highly recommend this condo as a place to stay.

Great location and set up perfectly.

We had a last minute change of plans and found this listing. It was in a great location, within walking distance of the beach, coffee shops and many restaurants. The space was very clean and the hosts provided great items, like places to go, restaurants, snacks and any travel items you might forget or run out. The host was very responsive too. Would recommend and stay at again! Thank you!

We loved how simple it was to park at the condo and walk to the beach, boardwalk, and many other shops. The owners had the rental well stocked with kitchen dishes and spices. They also provided some simple amenities like shampoo, conditioner, and small toiletries. The rooms felt fresh and clean. We had no complications with check in or during our stay.

Great place to stay as its clean and just about everything is provided and good quality, except for the beach chair. I'd recommend looking into renting beach chairs and an umbrella. Great location with short walk to the beach, to the boardwalk, to the market to get some groceries, and to lots of places to eat. Definitely enjoyed my stay and would stay here again.

We loved this apartment! It's the perfect size for two people. We always stay in this area and are familiar with what is around. There wasn't anything missing and the welcome gift bag was an added plus! Thank you for everything, we will book with you again! BTW we did not have the unit number when we arrived but had lots of help because your neighbors are awesome too!
