About this property

Amazing Ocean View Condo - Updated furnishings throughout!

Looking for a vacation spot where every time you come back, you experience the same high level of quality? At our Koastal View oceanfront condo, we personally renovated and equipped this 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo to become ‘that’ vacation spot where you will want to book your next visit before you leave.

Koastal View is located on the 5th floor at Pelican Watch, Carolina Beach. It has everything you need for an amazing beach vacation! Pelican Watch features secured access after 9 PM, 2 elevators, a heated indoor pool & hot tub, seasonal outdoor pool, ocean front picnic area with charcoal grills, private sundeck, private beach walkway, outside shower and bike racks. Two parking passes are provided for the parking lot across the street. Guests can unload next to the front door, and luggage carts and two elevators are available to help you get your things up to the unit.

Enjoy fantastic views of the Atlantic Ocean at Koastal View, and wake up to the sound of the surf and watch the sunrise without even getting out of bed! We strive to make the condo a very comfortable 'home away from home'. We continue to make updates to our home to ensure our guests have a fantastic experience and vacation.

The large ocean front balcony is equipped with 4 pub height Amish-built chairs and pub table, which is perfect for morning coffee or cocktails at sunset. Watch the dolphins, pelicans, boats and surfers.

The ocean front Master features a comfortable King bed, flat screen TV and private bath with shower. The 2nd bedroom has an equally comfortable Queen bed and flat screen HD TV and shares a common bath with combination tub/shower. The ocean front Living Room features a Queen Sleeper Sofa, with a 50” flat screen TV.

The kitchen has stainless steel appliances (refrigerator, electric stove, microwave, dishwasher), and is also well equipped with cooking supplies. The wet bar area is perfect for making your favorite cocktails. A full size front load washer and dryer, blender, toaster, coffee makers (Keurig & drip), iron, ironing board, luggage racks, and hair dryers are available for your convenience. Board games, cards and many books are also available for your use.

Smoking and Pets are NOT permitted at this property. Outdoor pools are normally open Memorial Day to Labor Day (weather permitting). The front doors are locked after 9 PM. Therefore, you must arrive at the unit (on your first day) prior to 9 PM in order to gain access.

Upon entering Koastal View, you’re greeted with a beautifully decorated condo with an ocean view. Everything is laid out in a way that is easy to find and it’s fun to find the notes throughout with helpful hints from Dann and Nancy. There’s a helpful scrapbook with recommendations for restaurants and things to do.

Pelican Watch 503

The condo exceeded our expectations. My wife, daughter, and I loved it. It was very clean, well appointed, and the owners have clearly thought about what travelers may need while away from home. The balcony was great for watching sunrises and sunsets. Pelican Watch can be easily accessed by using Dow Road and Ocean Blvd instead of driving through Carolina Beach (though that’s not too bad). A great place to consider for time on the beach.

Wonderful Family Vacation!

Dann and Nancy take pride in their property and it shows in every detail. They are very kind and responsive. The condo is exactly what you see in the pictures. Light, bright, beautiful and immaculate. With the framed notes around the condo with instructions, and incidentals available, we wanted for nothing. Checking in and out were an absolute breeze. Please believe every review and stay at Koastal View. You won't be sorry.

Best stay in Carolina Beach area!

A vacation in this area for five straight years and stayed at multiple properties. This so far is my favorite. The host provides everything you could possibly need. Plenty of dishes if you’d like to cook. there are hygiene and laundry items as well as a first day cabinet. Each room is beautifully decorated. Primary bedroom has ocean front view and extremely comfortable. This property has an elevator to make it easy to get to your room, much better than many places with stairs.There are plenty of books and puzzles just in case of a rainy day. The balcony is accessible from the living area as well as the primary bedroom plenty of room for the family to sit and watch the ocean.I stayed here for four nights and I would book at this property again.

Fabulous condo

One of the nicest beach condos I have ever stayed in! Nicely decorated, well equipped kitchen. Great communication from the owners. Everything was labeled and explained. Great book of places to eat. One morning i laid in bed and watched the sun rise. Great patio to sit and enjoy the ocean. Fabulous! We really enjoyed Carolina Beach and will stay here again if we return. Thanks fir letting us enjoy your condo!

Outstanding

What an exceptional property! Condo was nicely updated, furnished beautifully and spotlessly clean. The owners have taken great care with all the details, down to instructions throughout on how to use various things in the condo which is a huge help. We have rented at Carolina/Kure Beach over the years and this condo exceeds any we have stayed at. The views were incredible, you can spend hours on the balcony soaking in the ocean view.The owner was accessible, easy to work with. Highly recommend Koastal View for a wonderful beach trip!

Excellent condo with comforts of home and direct beach access

Our family easily gave this rental a 5-star rating. However, there are some factors that you should consider when renting here. Pros: - We have been renting at Carolina Beach for quite a few years now, and this condo has the best set-up we’ve ever encountered - Dann and Nancy were great. Good communications and ensured we had a great trip—including a welcome bottle of wine. - Kitchen is well stocked with appliances, utensils, pots, pans. Owner encourages a “pay it forward” practice, where folks will leave any unused things like condiments, plastic bags, dish washing soap/ detergent, spices, etc. - View of the ocean is beautiful and balcony is great for relaxing in nice barstools - Automatic shades block the sun when needed inside - Very nice equipment set-up: TVs in each room and bluetooth Bose speaker to play some tunes - Bar area is well stocked with glassware of all kinds - Beds were comfortable - Less than 2 mins and your feet are on the sand! - Nice indoor and outdoor pool, including small indoor hot tub - Lots of extra supplies in the condo (pillows, sheets, beach stuff, etc). You’re likely covered in case you forgot anything. Potential Cons/ Things to be aware of: - Condo is on 5th floor of 11 floor building. This means a lot of people in a condensed area of the beach - With only two elevators, Saturday check-in and check-out is challenging, with everyone competing for elevators. Be prepared for this process to take longer than you might expect. COVID obviously makes this worse. - Beach in front of Pelican Watch is not very deep, and the amount of people in the building means beach space gets tight. We saw people setting up to hold spots beginning at 6AM every day. - Parking lot is across a relatively busy street. Some people were parking in a lane in front of Pelican Watch, but that space is very limited. Many were carting luggage across the road to the parking lot. It’s tough to gauge whether the crowds we experienced are the norm, or if they were up because of the combination of COVID and the return of the school season right around the corner. Either way, the above is good to be mentally prepared for in your arrival and departure. After you’re in and settled, be prepared to enjoy a great room and relaxing stay at the beach!

About the host

Hosted by Kruse Rental Properties LLC

Host profile image
We have dreamed of owning beachfront property for years. We fell in love with the location and the friendly people in both the complex and in Carolina Beach. The unit is spacious and the views are amazing.

Why they chose this property

Its a feeling you get everytime you come back to Carolina Beach. The local people are very nice, the restaurants are fun, and everything you need is so close.

What makes this property unique

We wanted to make this unit very comfortable and not have the traditional wicker/steel furniture you see in most condos. We wanted to provide nicer bedding and mattresses along with new clean appliances. We tried to 'think of everything' so you don't have to think about anything, but what you are going to do on next on your vacation.
