If you’re able to hike up six flights of stairs, the views are definitely worth it. You can watch the sunrise over the ocean and the sunset over the canal. The two decks with two beautiful views were fabulous! It’s only a 3 minute walk to the public beach access. The kitchen is fully stocked. The beds were very comfortable; no issues there whatsoever. The water pressure and temperature in the showers were great after a long day at the beach. We stayed here for 6 weeks and happily stay again.

Perfect views of the ocean and harbor

A perfect spot for our annual friend getaway — we loved the layout, cleanliness, location just steps from the beach…and the two sizable balconies, with views of the sun rising over the ocean and of the sun setting over the harbor. Before we checked out this year, we’d already booked again for next year!

We had an amazing time. The condo was very nice and clean. Super easy check in. The owner was great with communication. He was super helpful. Condo is right across from the beach. Close to all attractions. Linens and cooking supplies were great. The beds were very comfortable. The decks in front and back were very spacious and nice for relaxing on.

Excellent location, view and amenities

The owner was incredibly responsive and very nice. The property is a walk to the beach, restaurants and docks. One side is an ocean view and the other side is a view of the ICW. Great for our family of 3- 2 bedrooms (one king bed and one queen bed, both with their own bathrooms!). Everything was clean. It’s a little weird to have the washer /dryer outside in the closet, but it worked fine. Very please with the amenities and the views! Kitchen was very clean!! Great property !

Great stay!

Check in was quick & easy! The condo was clean and very welcoming, we felt relaxed right away. The perfect room for a family of 3. Linens were included, as well as essentials (toilet paper, paper towels, hand soaps, dish liquid, and dishwasher tablets). Bare essentials for cookware and utensils included as well. Fairly quiet outside of no4mal neighbor noises. The public Beach accesses were very close by, and a beach market with yummy coffee just a quick walk away. Parking was good, no issues finding a spot during our stay. Thank you for a great condo!

We will be returning

The title of "newly furnished " is misleading, at least in our opinion. The bedroom furniture seems like 2nd hand store purchases and the couches are extremely discolored. We love the location. It's less than a 5 minute walk to the beach and the pool offers a different option to cool off. We've stayed at this complex for years and parking is always an issue, but we know this and plan ahead with supplies and limit our time driving out for things. The steps will get you, but the view is great.The beds are comfortable and the kitchen provides you with what you need. Laundry is always a great resource. This condo does have ceiling fans in both bedrooms, which always helps.We enjoyed our stay enough that we've already booked for next summer. This is a solid 4 and could easily go up to a 5.

Annual Girls’ Getaway!!

We had an amazing stay at Carolina Beach this past “long” weekend! The condo was perfect for our group of four ladies. We absolutely loved the view from the two decks - from one, we were able to see the gorgeous water of the Atlantic Ocean, and from the other, we could sit and watch the stunning sunset. Just breathtaking. The layout of the condo was ideal, and the kitchen was perfect for cooking-in, which we did three of the four nights of our stay! The walk to the beach was very short, as in across the road and a block away! Less than 5 mins. We also had access to the property pool, available only to residents and guests, and it was extremely well-maintained. The owner, Mark, was accessible and an absolute delight to work with. We’ll definitely be staying here again, and would recommend this property to prospective Carolina Beach vacation renters!!

Marvelllous place to stay and near everything but...

The view is magnificent on both sides of the condo. The condo is very well decorated. Mark, the owner, responds quickly to various requests. BUT... We stayed the first three weeks of July 2022. The condo was very dirty. We had to clean everything, an hour and a half a day, for two weeks. We had a real week of vacation left. The pool was not maintained properly. The water looked like milk. The smell of marijuana often wafted through the air along with the cigar. We allow ourselves to register this comment because we advised Mark before writing it. We hope changes will be made because the potential is there.

Why they chose this property

This home jumped off the screen when we saw it for sale! The double deck that gives a wide view of the ocean was what we wanted most as we enjoy lots of friends spending time with us and relishing the beauty. We love having the master bedroom so you can wake up and see the ocean before leaving the bed. The other bedroom has a view of the intracoastal so no one misses out on the water views of this unit.

What makes this property unique

Wide decks to view the ocean, intracoastal and swimming pool!
Granite countertops giving the feel of luxury to the unit.
Closet on the first floor for the beach chairs, umbrellas, and toys so you don't have to carry them up and down each trip to the beach.
Easy access to the beach!
Picnic tables and grills for the owners of the units.
Salt water swimming pool!
