Beautiful interior design and fully stocked with all the essentials. The beach and pool were steps away and made for an easy stay with kids. Just lots to love but the coffee bar and porch swing were two of my morning favorites.

Beautiful condo with stunning views of the ocean! The host thought of everything when they stocked their condo. Great location to many activities and restaurants! Highly recommend them, and we are looking forward to our next stay! Pretty sure our rescue dog loved her first trip to see the ocean!

This was the absolute perfect getaway. You can feel the ocean breeze and listen to the surf while you lounge on the swinging porch bed with your coffee. The fully stocked kitchen was a dream for our family, sharp knives, oyster shuckers, good pans, nice blender- much appreciated in our chef laden family. The sectional sofa offered ample space for our family of four that includes two gangly teen boys to all be able to lounge. We can’t wait to return!

Wonderful stay

My husband and I (are are two little doggies) had a wonderful stay at this location. We felt like we were at a true home away from home with all the lovely details throughout the unit. Home was very clean and well stocked and beds/couches were extremely comfy. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a dog friendly vacation rental as a dog friendly beach was steps away from the home.

A most lovely, comfortable and well appointed apartment steps from the ocean. Relaxing was the vibe, from comfy sofas, pillows, throws along with the sound of waves caressing (and crashing) the shoreline. Everthing you will need kick back and recover your breath. Our dog even gives it four paws up!

Wonderful Stay!

We loved this condo so much! It was exactly as pictured on the website with comfortable beds and incredibly comfortable window and living room seating. We were so impressed with the well-appointed kitchen and high-end appliances. The icing on the cake was definitely our host, Jamie! He was so responsive before, during and even after our stay. He even checked to make sure all was good mid week. If we go back to Carolina Beach, we would DEFINITELY stay there again!

This 2 bedroom condo is decorated beautifully and conveniently located across from the Carolina Beach Pier (North End). It provides easy access to Freeman Park! We had a fabulous time this past week.
