Great space for large families. Great location on Carolina Beach. Walking distance to many restaurants, attractions, and the park. Loved the private beach access from the main floor. Kitchen included all housewares needed to prepare meals. Just disappointed the elevator was out of order during our stay.

Great house. Perfect for multiple families with lots of young children. Easy beach access, beds were made upon arrival, walkable access to the boardwalk, super easy checkout. I would definitely go back.Parking is tough given how many people this place accommodates.

We loved this property. So convenient and accommodating to our family. The beds were already made. House stocked with all the starters for us. The only downside was the house could use a deep cleaning. Essentially clean but furniture needed to be pulled out and cleaned behind couches and beds etc. I feel this is a common theme for rentals. I would definitely book again.
