Great Set Up

We enjoyed our stay at the beach house. We felt that it was clean and everything was as described. The owners were very responsive. There was plenty of room for our family of four (2 adults, 2 kids) plus our dog. The kitchen was well stocked and we appreciated the little things such as dish detergent, extra toilet paper/paper towels, laundry detergent, etc..) They had a great set up for our dog as well with dog beds, fenced in yard, etc.) We loved having the golf cart to take into town and right down the road to the beach. Just for perspective, it’s also not too far of a walk to the beach (maybe 10-15 minutes) and we did it several times with our dog. It was a great house and we would certainly stay again if we’re in the area.

Wonderful, Relaxed Vacation

We are repeat visitors to this wonderful property. Hosts are responsive and welcoming, especially to our doggies, which is very important to my family. Home is lovely and in a great location, with a short golf cart ride away to parks, restaurants and the beach. We look forward to going yet again in the very near future! :-)

Great Weekend Getaway

We came to the beach from the triangle for a quick weekend trip. The house had great amenities, a perfectly stocked game cabinet, and the golf cart was the highlight of the kids trip. Would absolutely recommend!

Beautiful Home, Great Location

We couldn't have asked for a better location and wonderful relaxing home. Close enough to walk to the boardwalk should you so desire, and just far enough to be away from the hustle and bustle of the busy street. Great location for beach access, walking, or bike riding as the trail is one block away and is also beautifully maintained. We will not hesitate to return to this lovely property, should we find ourselfs in this area again!

Fantastic Family Vacation

Super clean and comfortable property. Loved the modern, sophisticated and uncluttered decor. Great set up for our family (2 young adult children) and dog. Golf cart was a great convenience to get to the beach (6 longish blocks) and to the pickleball courts (3 blocks). VRBO hosts were very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Highly recommend!

The Perfect Holiday Get Away!

We loved our time at Carolina Beach at Sea Esta! This home was equipped with everything you need and was immaculate. It was also dog friendly which was a must for this quick vacation. The local restaurants were great and we loved the home so much we chose take out most of the time so we could come home and eat in front of the fireplace. The new golf cart made for quick trips to the beach for walks with the dogs and neighborhood Christmas light cruises. We would definitely stay here again!!

Getaway!

The property was clean. A nice backyard for my fur babies. We had a dog park right down the street. We enjoyed the golf cart to go all around the town. My only thing is I wish it had blinds or window coverings on the 2nd level for the evening hours.

Great Thanksgiving Trip

We had a wonderful stay over the Thanksgiving holiday. The golf cart was a wonderful way to get to the beach quickly and the fenced yard was great for our pups. The only issue was there were only 4 bath towels and very little to cook with as far as pots and utensils. There was also no first aid kits when we needed some band aids. Other than a few minor inconveniences it was great!

Great Stay!

I can honestly say this was one of the best vacation homes we have stayed at. This was our first time taking our dogs with us. We are always a little hesitant to stay at places that allow others to bring their pets due to cleanliness, but this did not disappoint! Home was very clean and smelled fresh. The golf cart was really the cherry on top. We have rented in the past and that can sometimes be inconvenient with timing and pick up/drop off. I will be recommending this home to others and we will be back!

Beautiful property

We really enjoyed this property. Modern decor. Very clean. We slept in two of the beds and so comfortable! What initially attracted us to this listing was the fenced in yard. We have two rescue beagles that really enjoyed the freedom since we are in a condo that requires them to always be leashed and walked. We loved how accommodating it was for our dogs. Beds, treats, toys, water dishes…. The gulf cart was a plus too. It was too cold to walk to the beach during our stay so that was a quicker alternative with a blanket. We would definitely stay here again.

Great beach rental!

We had an amazing time staying in Carolina Beach and the rental was just as advertised. Very well appointed and decorated with everything you might need. Beds were comfortable but pillows not the most supportive (we normally bring our own but forgot). Great outdoor shower and fenced backyard for our dog. Unusual layout with 2 bedrooms and full bath downstairs and primary bedroom upstairs with living area and kitchen but seems typical for many beach rentals here. Also, nearby walking/bike and playground/dog park were nice amenities. Very quiet and safe neighborhood (never heard anything from neighbors besides occasionally dog barking) just 6 blocks to the beach. Easily walkable but the golf cart was a huge plus and we used it often. Beach access #9 had designated golf cart parking so very convenient. Chair/umbrella rentals also could be set up in advance or purchased on the spot. Also about a mile ride to the boardwalk and many restaurants. We ate at Michael's, Havana, Nollie's Taco Joint (best tacos and burritos we've ever had), Carolina Smokehouse, and Butts N Such and would highly recommend all of them. Boardwalk rides were a bit pricey so I wouldn't waste time on them again. Also all spots there are metered so had to pay $5/hour. Overall, a great vacation at Carolina Beach and I would definitely recommend staying at this home.

Great Vacation Spot

The property was great and the location was just right for us. It is close to the greenway and close to the beach so walking the dogs was so easy and with the fenced in back yard it was easy to let them out quickly when needed. We really enjoyed the clean spaces and full size showers and the kitchen was fun to eat in as a family too.

About the host

Hosted by Jacqueline Barkey

Host profile image
My husband and I have two silver labs who adore the beach. For several years, we had been coming to Carolina Beach since it is so charming and dog friendly. After renting various properties in the area, we came to the realization that it was very difficult to find a really nice "dog friendly" place to stay. If pets were allowed, generally speaking, the rentals were mediocre at best. That's when we decided to build our beautiful beach home "Sea Esta" and make it available to other responsible dog families. I can honestly say it has been a wonderful experience hosting dog owners and their pups. They have taken very good care of our home and we are very grateful!

Why they chose this property

We discovered this home when it was under construction. Immediately I knew it was something special. Modern, beachy and brand new! If you love modern architecture, clean lines and simplicity in furniture and decor, you will fall in love with Sea Esta. Not to mention it has all the conveniences and amenities you would expect in a luxury beach property.

What makes this property unique

The 6 passenger GOLF Cart with included Town of Carolina Beach parking makes getting to and from the beach, restaurants, bars, & entertainment effortless! There is golf cart parking right in front of Beach Access #9 (Spartanburg Ave.) Drivers must be at least 21 years of age and have an active driver's license and automobile liability insurance policy. (Note: Privately owned parking lots and Kure Beach lots/spaces are not included.)
