About this property

Oceanfront, Saltwater Pool, First Floor, King Bed

Welcome to Seaside Bliss! This oceanfront property is located directly beside a beach access putting you just steps away from putting your toes in the sand and making sweet coastal memories. The convenience of the first-floor location makes this an ideal retreat for families, couples, or friends who don’t enjoy lugging their beach gear or luggage up and down flights of stairs. The accessibility to the ocean, saltwater pool and parking lot makes Seaside Bliss the perfect spot to have your relaxing beach getaway. *Please note - due to the first floor location - the view from the balcony is of the dunes. This condo is oceanfront, but not ocean view.

The Space

This lovely unit features 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, making it perfect for small groups/families or couples. The primary bedroom offers a brand-new king bed, private half bath, and direct access to the oceanfront porch*. The second bedroom offers a queen bed and a twin bed. The living room offers a queen pull out couch to accommodate extra guests. Also included is our high-speed Wi-Fi and 2 smart TV’s (including cable) to help you keep up with favorite shows and movies.
In the fully equipped kitchen, you will find everything you need for cooking and preparing food. Guests may also enjoy their morning cup of coffee or evening cocktail on the oceanfront porch with dune views and the amazing sound of the waves. Also available for our guests to enjoy are the grill and picnic tables just steps away at south end of the complex property, along with an outdoor shower right by the beach access for cleaning off at the end of a long day at the beach, and of course, our favorite, the amazing saltwater pool.

We have also started providing 4 beach chairs and a few beach toys to help make your beach vacation a little more fun and convenient.

*The saltwater pool is typically open for the season starting in mid-April through October. If you'd like to confirm that the pool will be open for your stay, please reach out. * Update as of April, 2026 - The pool is open for the 2026 summer season!

Seaside Bliss is located at Seahorse beach access and is about .7 of a mile (an easy beach walk for some) from the beginning of lively Carolina Beach Boardwalk where you can enjoy restaurants, coffee shops, boat charters, the seasonal fireworks (please feel free to ask us about the dates for the fireworks) and everything Carolina Beach has to offer. Across the street from the complex, you will find North End Mini Mart and Café where you can find a few shopping essentials or enjoy a delicious breakfast sandwich and cup of coffee.

Guest Access

This unit comes with 2 parking passes (one designated spot and one guest pass). Access to the unit is available via touch keypad on the front door.
This condo can serve a variety of needs and has a few primary house rules:

The condo was great for our stay! The host was very responsive to any questions before and during our stay. Everything was clean! The only issue was the internet, it was slow or wouldn't connect with our Firestick. Not really a big deal because we aren't the beach!! Beautiful place, would recommend to others!

Sarah was a friendly and helpful host. She communicated effectively and quickly. She also solved problems quickly. The accommodations worked unexpectedly well with my toddler overall. There wasn’t too many concerns to keep him away from. It fit 4 of us plus a toddler well, and it was conveniently located. Small warning for those with mobility issues. Despite being a first level condo, there are four outside stairs to get up. I did think the beach access was surprisingly easy for those with mobility issues though. Would book again.

The unit was clean and as advertised. Nice furnishings. Plenty of dishes. Definitely appreciated the extra parking pass so relatives in the area could meet us. Beach access was public but well maintained. Beach was beautiful!! There were minor items that needed repair- some doors needed cosmetic repair, glass top stove top was damaged, we did not use it, so not sure if it was working. TV was all streaming, and it was difficult to use. Did contact owner, and he did come over and let us know that they really did not subscribe to anything. Mostly, all we could get was news channels and Amazon Music. The internet service was pretty terrible, even though we did use the unit's wifi password. Internet dropped or buffered often. We would have used our laptop for tv, but the felt the internet would not support it. Thankfully, we were out and about often, so did not miss TV too much. One thing the owners could do is provide some instructions for the TV, and appliances in the unit. Would save them and the renters a little time! But it was a nice time, with only some minor issues.

Thank you for your review and I’m glad you had a nice stay at our condo! You all were great guests and would be happy to host you again. Thank you for pointing out the cosmetic issues on the doors, my husband went ahead and took care of that after you left. I appreciate you bringing that to my attention. The stove has a minor, small cosmetic dent on the front but works great if you ended up needing to use it in the future. The TV’s do offer streaming services and also cable. The guest just needs to login to their preferred streaming networks. I’ve contacted spectrum and had them reset the internet as to avoid any further issues. We were more than happy to come right over and help explain how to work the TV. It is very important to us that each of our guests have a great stay and are always happy to help in any way needed. I hope you all had a safe trip back home and thank you again for staying with us!

No WiFi password provided. Cable was not working most of the time couldn’t see ocean due to sand dunes. Nothing like spending most of the day out and come back to no tv to unwind with. The room was nice and clean and little snacks were provided.
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 28 October 2025
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. I truly appreciate it. I’m very sorry for the confusion regarding the Wi-Fi information. The check-in message sent prior to your stay did include the Wi-Fi details, but I completely understand how easy it can be to miss that. My apologies for any inconvenience this caused. Regarding the dune view, you are absolutely correct — the view from the porch is of the dunes. As noted in our condo description, the unit is located on the first floor, with just a few steps up from the parking lot, so the porch overlooks the dunes rather than the ocean. Transparency is extremely important to us, and we always want guests to know exactly what to expect. We would never want anyone to arrive anticipating an ocean view and be disappointed, which is why we make sure to clearly include this information in our listing. I’m also very sorry to hear that the Spectrum cable service was down during your stay — I can imagine how frustrating that must have been. I wish you had reached out so I could have assisted in resolving the issue right away. We’re always eager to help ensure our guests have a smooth and enjoyable experience. Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review. I hope you had a safe trip home, and we truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us. Warm regards, Sarah

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Willett

Host profile image
My husband and I have been married since 2008, and we now have 3 girls and a little boy plus our sweet golden retriever named Stella. We have been living in Wilmington, NC (5 minutes from Carolina Beach) since 2019, and we love it here. My husband works in roofing, and I stay home with our 4 kids. We love the beach, exploring Masonboro Island, hiking at Carolina Beach State Park and Fort Fisher, and sharing our love for all things coastal with our guests! We look forward to hosting you soon!

What makes this property unique

This unit truly stands out thanks to its unbeatable location. You’re just steps from the ocean, with a saltwater pool conveniently located right outside your door—offering the best of both worlds.

One of our favorite features is the easy access. There are minimal steps from the parking lot to the first floor, where the unit is located, and even better—there are no steps along the beach access path down to the sand. It makes carrying beach gear so much easier and stress-free.

Our family also loves starting the day with a quick walk across the street to grab coffee and breakfast sandwiches from the North End Mini Mart & Café, then heading to the beach to enjoy a relaxing breakfast by the ocean.
