We had two young children with us and they had no problem walking with us to the beach. House had a great layout and the common living area had lots of space for us to eat, play games and just hang out. There was lots of beach stuff to use and a wonderful cart to get it all to and from the beach. Thank you to the hosts and to Barbara the manager who was just a quick text away if we had any questions. This was ideal to make a family vacation while there for our son’s graduation from UNCW. Highly recommend.
Barbara was an excellent host and communicator. The home was clean, ready and well appointed, no issues nor concerns. We had a great experience, was a 1.5 blocks from the beach. I would highly recommend and we will definitively be back.
Property was juts perfect for our group of 11. Checking in and out was a breeze as well as a bit early. We booked many months ahead and the wait was worth it.
This house is very accommodating for a family vacation. Great layout, minutes from the beach. The property manager was very responsive and accommodating. She met us when we checked in to go over the elevator which was really nice. Overall a great house for a beach vacation!
This is our second time staying at this property in 3 years. We couldn't love it more. Great location to the beach, huge clean property and kind, responsive host. Definitely worth it!
What a beautiful home with great accommodations. My family and I were in town for a wedding and we could not have asked for a better experience. Clean, comfortable and beautiful. it felt just like home!!! I would give Family Tides a 5 star rating!
This place was very accommodating for our 7 adults 3 children family. Quick walk to the beach to watch sunrises was fabulous. The neighborhood was clean and friendly. The use of beach equipment (chairs, wagon & toys) was a plus. Great time had by all!!!
This place is awesome! We so loved being a short walk to the beach. There was plenty of room for our whole family and the decks on each of the top 3 levels made for great morning coffee hangs. The owners were also very accommodating when there was an unexpected a/c issue beforehand. They made sure we were comfortable and got the issue fixed quickly! I would absolutely stay here again!
Or stay was everything we needed and wanted in a home! Our property manager Barbara went above and beyond to accommodate us. She’s amazing 5 stars for sure.
We had a great experience staying here, the owner answered all questions before our stay and contacted us the day before with check in info. The house was perfect for our group as there were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for us to spread out and then we were able to gather together in the living and kitchen area as a group. The house was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The beach was very accessible as it is just a block away and it was never too crowded. The elevator was nice to use when taking luggage up or when we were tired from the day. I would highly recommend this place and we will be back soon!
We stayed here for a family trip. Overall, it is a good place for the price. Here are the top things you need to know:
Pros
- Close to the beach, a ~5min walk.
- Plenty of rooms
- Elevator makes hauling luggage and groceries easy
- Fully stocked kitchen
- outdoor shower is great + hose
- comfortable parking for two cars
Cons
- lots of stairs
- all the beach equipment is old, bikes have flat tires
- the living room isn't that big, so depending on how big your party is, it might be a squeeze.
Host is very responsive and attentive if you have any issues. Overall happy with our stay here!
This is a beautiful beach house that is only 1 block from the beach. It is a quiet area but close enough that you can walk to the boardwalk. The house is 4 stories high which sounds like a problem but it’s actually nice for spreading out with a big group. There is an elevator for your convenience. There are plenty of decks to sit outside. There is at least one deck on both sides of the house so you can always get in or out of the sun (whichever you prefer). We had a great time and had everything that we needed. We couldn’t have asked for more.

Beautiful home with an elevator
The home is beautiful, clean, and well appointed. The kitchen is very well stocked, including baking equipment (small hand mixer and baking pans). The elevator was a Godsend, not just for our elderly relatives, but also for transporting groceries to the 3rd floor kitchen. The beds were comfortable, and we appreciate having 2 rooms with twin beds for the kids on the trip. It is a 1 block walk to the beach, which has a handicapped-accessible ramp, and is right next to a lifeguard stand that has a sand wheelchair, so that everyone can enjoy the beach together. We definitely recommend staying here!

Thanks so much for your review of our beach house. We are glad that you and your family enjoyed your visit. We would gladly welcome you to return to our beach house during your next visit to Carolina Beach.
Thanks,

Great location, house has everything you need, great size for family beach trip. They have a high chair, pack n play and kids tableware which was nice! Only downside with a toddler is lots of steep stairs but they did have baby gates which was helpful.
We loved our stay at Family Tides! The 5 BR house was great for our extended family. I appreciated that the house provided some beach amenities, including a wagon, beach chairs, and some floats and pails, as well as basic household supplies (trash bags, soap, toilet paper, paper towels, spices, etc). The house is on a dead-end street just around the corner from a public beach access. Very convenient. There is an oceanside grill/tiki bar and a burger/ice cream shack within a block as well. We would stay here again!
The property is just as it was listed. Nice location on a dead end street. The property manager was at the house upon our arrival. She reviewed the house with us and answered all our questions. The beach was within walking distance. Girls weekend away. I would stay again when back in the area.
My family of six and two of my siblings had a wonderful week in Carolina Beach. The house was in a great location with plenty of parking for 4 cars. Probably could get 5 or 6 cars if you really try. Elevator came in handy for my sister n law with bad knees. The house came with great beach chairs and a beach wagon. You don’t need to bring chairs. These are Tommy Bahamas and sit high up. You will enjoy your stay here!
We gathered 3 generations of family and had a wonderful time celebrating my Dad's birthday. Walking distance to the beach and close proximity to shops and attractions.
From booking to check-out best experience ever. We all had an outstanding vacation. The owners truly want you to have a exceptional experience and we sure did. The property manager makes sure you have what you need and is responsive to any questions you may have. We highly recommend this property.
This is a very well maintained property with plenty of room to accommodate a large family. 5 minutes walk from the beach.
The elevator is a plus to have easy access to each floors. The kitchen is well equipped, even with dual coffee maker (regular and cartridge). Outside grill and 2 bikes offered for use. Great!
