Memories start where the sand ends & the ocean begins! Ocean views, Pool & WIFI

Relax and recharge just steps from the sand and surf in this fully renovated, two bedroom, 2 full-bath condo. Be among the first to enjoy the fully stocked, updated kitchen with granite countertops and island that seats two. The open concept design allows simultaneous meal-prep and family mingling. Savor a meal around the 4-chair dining table or cocktails at the balcony pub table as you listen to the rolling waves.

The master bedroom offers a queen size bed, updated ensuite bath, and cable TV. Bedroom #2 provides 3 additional beds with a twin-over-full bunk, and an additional twin bed complete with trundle storage and Roku TV. There is plenty of space for comfort. The living room’s full size sleeper sofa offers another sleeping option and TV adjacent to the walk-out balcony with ocean view.

Sand Pebbles Complex amenities include two pools, private beach access, two parking spaces per unit, and is just steps away from Caroline Beach’s premier restaurants and entertainment. This unit has been tastefully redesigned with new bedroom furnishings, hard wood flooring, lighting, and kitchen. Every detail hints at a relaxing and breezy beach motif, designed with luxury and comfort in mind. We hope you’ll make our home your home for your next ocean get-away!

Owner’s recommendations for your visit:

-Historic Fort Fisher and The North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher, a short 10 minute drive away.

-Take a short walk down the beach to the Ocean Grill and Tiki Bar for a bite to eat and a refreshing beverage selection.

-Head in the opposite direction up the beach to enjoy the Carolina Beach Boardwalk with fireworks each Thursday during the summer, weather permitting.

-Squigley's Ice Cream & Treats

Great time in Carolina Beach! 1st time visitors and we will be back. The condo was so convenient to the pool, the ocean, food-you name it. Wonderful little community as the natives were super friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying with the Cram's you won't be disappointed.

It was amazing! This is the 2nd year staying in the Sand Pebbles community and have made some friends with the locals that live there! Beautiful condo could not ask for better views, and to rest while we were there! I would recommend to anyone going to that area! <3

So impressed with this rental. It had everything needed, including beach chairs and umbrella. Super clean. Location is perfect. Plenty of food and ice cream shops directly across the street. Boardwalk is less than a five minute drive or a 15 minute walk.

Thank you for a wonderful stay! The condo is beautifully decorated, relaxing and perfectly located with enough space for our family. Well stocked with kitchen items as well as beach chairs, mats, etc for great beach days. We love that we can walk straight out to the beach or the pool. Our second time visiting and we are already discussing next year. Thank you so much!

Beautiful remodeled condo. Owners are wonderful. We felt at home with all of the amenities that the owners provide. Beautiful oean view from deck, private beach access and pool. Sand Pebbles is family friendly and residents and guests were all so nice. Another plus is the condo is just up one set of stairs, making it easy to and unload. Condo is beautiful and very clean. We have stayed twice and will book again.

This condo was perfect. Super easy check-in process, no need to travel to a rental office. Unit was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Great view of pool and ocean. Easy beach access. Walking distance to many great restaurants and Carolina Beach Boardwalk. The master bedroom TV wasn’t working and the owners were super responsive and had a replacement the following morning. The beach area outside the complex was not crowded, lots of space to toss a football. You can tell the owners take pride in their unit.

I can’t say enough about this entire experience. This was our first family vacation ever and it did not disappoint. The process of booking was so easy and seamless. The communication with the owners of the property was timely and accurate. I felt as if I was speaking with friends. The location of this property has an amazing view of the ocean and overlooks the pool. Anything you need is either walking distance or a short drive. The condo checked all of our boxes as far as amenities! They have made so many improvements and I can’t wait to see what they do next. We penciled ourselves in for next year already. I did this as we were leaving to come home! First of many family vacations in a wonderful location, fantastic atmosphere and excellent experience!

Loved the area and the beach. Condo had updated bathrooms but showers wouldn’t drain, no toilet paper holders, or places to hang your towels. Furniture in the family room was uncomfortable and there wasn’t enough furniture for 5 people to sit. Kitchen lacked basic utensils and cookware. Carpet needs replaced. Deck was very enjoyable. Paint cans in the kitchen cabinets is unacceptable, For the rental fee I expected more than what this condo offered.

The condo was as presented and described on the site. The unit looks to have freshly painted walls and is beautifully decorated. All appliances are in excellent working order. The owners respond fast and are very helpful. The check-in and check-out process is clearly defined and easy to understand. The location is great as it is close to the boardwalk and other restaurants, Squigley's Ice Cream & Treats was our favorite! The facility as a whole is well kept up, the fencing and gate around 1 of the pools was being repaired while we were there, the pools are kept very clean. The folks that seem to live there regularly were very friendly. The owners plan to do more renovations with the kitchen and flooring. Overall we had a great stay and hope to stay again in the future. Things that were beyond the owners control and did not affect my review of the condo but may be helpful to travelers: Parking can be a little tight depending on the size of your vehicle. The building does not have an elevator so I would not recommend the facility for anyone traveling with an individual bound to a wheelchair.

The condo was very convenient for us to go the beach. My one sister and I went every morning to the beach for sunrise and a walk. They were wonderful. All instructions for check in were very easy. Carolina Beach was a perfect location for us. Thank you for sharing your Beach Home. It was a perfect week for us. We had a great time.

We had a great family vacation! First time staying at this condo but won't be our last. Such a nice, spacious condo - plenty of room for our family. Had everything we needed and a short walk to the beach. There were a lot of cars but parking never seemed to be an issue for us. We did need to communicate with the owners for a very small issue but they were very nice and responsive. Highly recommended!!

The proximity to both the pools and beach is perfect!! Literally just a few steps away. We didn't even need our beach cart. The condo is just like the photos - very nicely updated! Also, I really appreciated having 2 drying racks. The keyless entry was nice, and parking was easy despite it being a busy summer week. Highly recommend!

This rental is wonderful! From start to finish it was a perfect stay for our family of 4 and my mother. The condo is exactly as advertised and yet felt like more, the balcony was our favorite spot to congregate in the mornings and evening as a group and solo with that first perfect cup of coffee and a book. The beds were comfortable and my children loved the bunk! There was even a supply of beach toys/supplies in the 2nd bedroom closet that wasn't mentioned in the AD (but we made very good use of in the pool!) The location of the condo cannot be overlooked either, both the location in the complex which was right over the pool, super convenient for bathroom runs with the kids, to the actual location of the complex itself which is right across the street from an amazing little local restaurant called "The Spot" where we ate 4 out of 6 nights! The atmosphere of the whole area is just beyond description and I highly recommend it!

This condo had everything right down to an ice cream scoop!! You don't need to take anything but your clothes; they even had chairs. I will definitely stay here again!!!
