Host is very communicative, friendly and helpful. The place was exactly as described and as pictured, and it's very well maintained. The area is quiet and very close, including walkable, to everything you would want to see and do. My stay played out as planned. Looking forward to a repeat in the future.

Great place to stay, especially with our dog! The fenced in yard was awesome. Our pup loved having the space to run around. Easy check in & access to the residence. It was in a very nice neighborhood and only a 10 minute walk to the beach. The unit offered everything we needed for a great stay!

The Sandbucket is a perfect place for just you and one other! The yard has all been re-done and is extremely nice. About a 10 min walk to all the restaurants, boardwalk and beach! We really enjoyed our stay and would book again.

The Sand Bucket was perfect for me, my wife, and our dog. It definitely will suit the needs of most couples. We were less than a ten minute walk from most anything we could want - the beach, the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, restaurants, etc. We loved the fact that it had a small yard for us to step out into with our dog and it was nicely taken care of with a sitting area. The small kitchen an living area were perfect for our needs to relax and wind down in the evening. Communication with property management was excellent as they promptly answered any questions we had and also did us the wonderful favor of shipping a pair of earrings that my wife left. We will stay here again.
