Welcome to Irie Vibes!

Welcome to Irie Vibes!. Irie (eye-ree) is Jamaican English meaning the ultimate positive, joyful and happy, the way you feel when you have no worries.

Irie Vibes is located on the 4th row on Brunswick Ave. W. There is a private beach access 428 feet from the front door. We are also located 1/4 mile from the Holden Beach bridge and restaurants, ice cream, candy, coffee, bike/kayak rentals, a park and boat launch are just a walk or bike ride away. Holden Beach also has a small pavilion (also within walking distance) with live music during the summer.

Our renovated kitchen is fully stocked. In addition, we have new flooring, paint, beds and furniture. Irie Vibes has 4 bedrooms and a "play room" with 2 XL twin beds. Porches on the front and back of the home offer shelter and comfy seating., perfect after a long day of golf or playing on the beach! The outdoor shower is enclosed and has space for towels or wet clothes.

Our home is pet friendly with a maximum of 2 dogs. Only dogs- no other pets. Our pet fee is $250. Please report ALL pets on your reservation & pay the appropriate fee.

We had a security camera installed at the end of September 2022. This camera only monitors outside the front door. No cameras are inside the home or in the back yard.

Our favorite part of our home is the outdoor space, including a large pool (32 x 14) with decking, landscaping and fencing The pool can be heated March-May, September and October, weather permitting. NEW: There is a fee of $100 to add pool heat to your reservation during these months. If the temperature drops below 55 degrees, we will not be able to heat the pool. NO DOGS ALLOWED IN THE POOL!

I recommend Irie Vibes to families staying on Holden Beach. Plenty of room, games for the young ones, lovely pool toys, beach wagon and extra touches including a welcoming goodie bag, dog treats, toys and beds for your pet. Our hosts were very attentive in communication. All and all, an excellent experience.

Love this place!

This was our second stay at this property. You cannot beat the location—it’s a super short walk to the beach. The backyard is amazing—large pool, bar, tv and speakers make for great poolside afternoons. This property is very clean and well stocked with everything you need. Plus, dog friendly! Cannot beat it.

This was the cutest house! We stayed for a week and were so sad to leave! The pool was amazing and in pretty sure my kids would have moved in if they could. This was our first time at Holden and won’t be our last! The owners were amazing at communicating and helping us with a few minors things. My husband was disappointed the bar TV had been damaged by a previous guest and wasn’t available but he lived! Thanks for a great stay!

I loved how it was decorated, it was cozy and felt like being home. They’ve put a lot of thought in how to make people feel welcome and provided a lot of extras. All of the beach accessories were a bonus and made the short walk even easier!

AWESOME BEACH HOUSEThis was our first family beach trip together since the kids are grown and our first time to Holden Beach. The house was perfect for us. The kitchen was well stocked and table big enough to have meals together. Bedrooms were large with comfy beds. My grandson loved the kids room. The main attraction was the pool and bar area where we spent most of our time it was amazing!The host Alan and Lynn were very easy to communicate with. They were very prompt to answer questions. Hope to be able to plan another trip to Holden Beach and would definitely stay at Irie Vibes. I would highly recommend this house.
