About this property

Breathtaking Oceanfront Views From Pier To Pier

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE VIEWS....and LOCATION....and COMFORT!! This is a condo with a cottage feel and decor that captures the beach. We've got it all! Come relax with a well-deserved vacation ON the Beach! Perched on the third floor (there is no elevator in the complex), the condo has the perfect panoramic view from pier to pier. It's close enough to all the exciting action at the boardwalk, yet far enough away from the crowds to provide peace and quiet.

What more could you ask for? Your stay will be unforgettable and effortless because this spacious condo, full of light, has everything you need for a stress-free, fun getaway for the entire family. ALL paper goods and basic kitchen supplies are provided....including the coffee!) The well-stocked kitchen, with breakfast bar and dining area, is flooded with beach and ocean views. The colorful, beachy bedrooms sleep 6 comfortably. Linens, towels and beach towels are all INCLUDED at no additional charge.

Your extraordinary views of the ocean, from every room, will provide hours of enjoyment while you watch the pelicans, sea gulls, shore birds, and porpoise (and maybe even a whale!) . Allow your senses to be awakened by the ocean breeze. You'll love the tall chairs and tall stools on the balcony so you can see OVER the railing instead of through it! You feel like you're right ON the beach!!

Our storage closet next to the private beach walkway is full of goodies that will take away the worries of purchases and will save you money! You'll find visors, a cooler, beach chairs, beach umbrella, sand toys, and boogie boards. There are 2 community pools (cleaned every day during season) and 4 outdoor showers. Pools are open May-October. Carport parking for maximum of two vehicles.

Carolina Beach offers an array of entertainment, restaurants and shopping. The Tiki Bar/Pier on the beach is just steps away. Directly across the street you'll find outdoor casual dining for pizza, cobbler, and seafood.

Spend your days by the water and your evenings at the Boardwalk! Live music at the Gazebo. Family night. Bingo. Free fireworks over the ocean on Thursdays, during the summer, can be seen right from the balcony! Fudge, ice cream, sweet treats....seafood and oysters, pizza, barbeque...all within walking distance. And don't miss the variety of unique shoppes.

The Ft. Fisher aquarium, Ft. Fisher Museum and Historic Site, and the Ferry to Southport are only a 5 minute drive down the beach. Walk to the lake for paddle boats and grab your chairs for free family movies on Sunday nights. Hike Carolina Beach State Park and take a kayak tour down the Cape Fear River.

Want more? Wilmington is only a 15 minute drive for museums, carriage rides, beautiful mansions and historic homes, ghost walks, the battleship, restaurants, bars, and that vacation fudge and ice cream! Be sure to visit their website.

The pleasantly uncrowded beach and the expansive ocean views from this prime location condo are inviting you to a retreat you'll want to re-visit...year after year. So let your cares "drift" away and take time to "coast" on Carolina Beach!

Beautiful!

We had a very nice week at Darlene and Jerry's home. It was spacious enough for our group of 6 and was well stocked. We loved the balcony the most, the view is gorgeous. We even spotted dolphins one time, with the help of the binoculars! We'd love to come back!

Incredible!

Loved staying at Darlene and Jerry’s place so much. The views are incredible - so nice to watch the waves roll in from the deck with a cup of coffee. Darlene has thought of everything for the condo - the space is beautifully decorated and had all the supplies we could’ve hoped for. The condo is in walking distance to some great spots for ice cream or lunch. Thank you, Darlene and Jerry, for sharing your beautiful place!!

Great place for a family vacation!

This condo is exactly as advertised. It was very clean, everything was well-maintained, and it had everything we needed (and more!). We really appreciated all of the information available on everything from local birds and stars to restaurants. There was plenty of space for our family of adults and teenagers. We loved the cheerful decor and the ocean views from every window (especially the window seat in the loft!). Everything went very smoothly and Darlene answered the few questions I had quickly. We were sorry to leave, and hope we can stay again sometime!

Great Turtle watching location

The location and view is amazing. If you love turtle watching it is perfect! The property was clean except for a black mold issue in the vents that impacted one of our family’s health. The owners are very nice but have issues renting to families with teenagers. They contacted us when insurance was purchased that was offered stating it was a “red flag to them since we had teenagers with us.” Overall amazing location to vacation and will return to the area at another location.

Communication with property owners was excellent prior to trip and during! Condo was clean. Fabulous oceanfront views from deck, dining area and loft bedroom. Towels, sheets and beach towels were included in price and of good quality. Parking directly under condo, beach access and pool access very close. Kitchen supplies and appliances well stocked. Beachy cottage decor. Darlene and Jerry included so many thoughtful extras ie: toiletries that you sometimes forget, games, paper products. This was our 1st VRBO and our 1st time to Carolina Beach. We had a great week!

Wonderful place with beautiful views!

The condo was beautiful. It was very clean and offered us everything we needed for a great vacation. The owners provide lots of extras (beach towels, beach games, toiletry stuff) if you forget something. The closet to store your beach supplies was a huge help, we brought stuff but it was not needed as the closet was packed full of everything you would need. Owners were great to work with and we went ahead and booked for next year. So many great restaurants close by and we had wonderful food every place we went. Can't want to come back next year. We used grocery delivery also which was super easy. Carolina beach has a great family feel and lots of mom and pop places.

Amazing view! Cozy, clean, beachy, and just perfect!

Our family of 5 (children ages 12, 10, 5) stayed in this wonderful condo for a long weekend and it was fabulous. The loft bedroom is very spacious, with it's own TV nook and window seat- this was really helpful when the kids needed to spread out. The condo was stocked with necessities, which made our first day much more relaxing- no running to the store for toilet paper. Beach gear and towels were plentiful, kitchen is well stocked and easy to cook in, and living spaces are very well decorated and comfortable. We have stayed in many beach condos, and this one was the best- hands down. The location on Carolina Beach is also ideal, short walk to the Tiki Bar, longer walk to the boardwalk and Britts, but close enough even for the kids. We hope to have a return visit!

Great Views

We enjoyed our week-long stay at this property! The oceanfront views truly are breathtaking. The condo is well maintained, cozy, and accommodating. A few things to note: (1) this is on the 3rd floor and there are a lot of steps, with no elevator…so groceries, heavy luggage, beach equipment can be a challenge (2) the loft is an amazing space, but extremely hot, even with the fans and window unit. It’s manageable though and not that bad, once you get use to it (3) there is a lot of decor which makes the condo very cozy and it’s obvious this is the owner’s home-away-from home and well taken care of, but it leaves very limited space for the guest’s items while staying there. Also have to be mindful of breakable wall decor with children, particularly in bathroom The turtle room is adorable and my daughter had a blast staying in that room for the week. She also got a kick out of having her very own tv in the room! We were able to watch the Thursday night fireworks from the balcony with no problem at all - perfect view! The condo is in a great location with a ton of walkability to restaurants, shops, ice cream, etc. The owners are super sweet and stay in touch throughout the stay to make sure everything is going well and to see if there is anything they can assist you with. It is very obvious that they care about not only their personal condo, but about the guests who stay there, which was very reassuring! We will certainly be back!

Just book this place!

This condo is simply amazing. I’ve stayed in beach properties yearly for around 20 years and I’ve never been in one that didn’t have sand in it until now. When I say it’s immaculate- I mean IMMACULATE. In addition, EVERYTHING is provided. Spices, ziploc bags, aluminum foil, toilet paper, tissues, body wash and even a cute bucket of items to help out if you forget! Ladies - she even supplies female items in both bathrooms. I’ve never EVER been in any rental that provided so much, anywhere. You also have beach towels and access to the storage closet - which is full of high quality items! Not cheap knock off stuff - but name brand chairs, umbrellas, beach toys, life jackets, even a fishing pole! As a parent - you know how hauling all the gear up 3 flights of steps is - but here you don’t have to! The window seat is my dream come true too, and the location is perfection. You can be on the beach in 4 minutes, pool in 2, great restaurants literally right across the street and the boardwalk is maybe a 10-15 min walk. This was our first visit here but it won’t be the last!

Stunning beach view from front balcony. It was a quiet spot, which we really enjoyed. Climbing up and down from the third floor was slightly daunting for these 68-year-old ladies, but we managed. The spiral staircase to the loft area is also better climbed with younger legs. Location is in walking distance to ice cream shops and several restaurants. We loved every minute of our time on the front and side porch areas. I would recommend offering more than one fob to get on the beach, as it made for some tricky timing for both of us--if one person wanted to walk the beach, the other one would have go 3 floors down to unlock the gate if she wanted to go a little later-- it was just inconvenient. Lots of games, DVDs, videos and books. Everything was thought of in terms of extras. Great communication with host.

A Little Piece of Paradise

I have absolutely ZERO complaints about this place. It was just as described and more. We have been going to Carolina Beach for 17 years and I think we found our favorite this year. The entire condo is very well stocked. The views are amazing. I could sit on the couch and watch the ocean. For the Thursday night fireworks, we enjoyed those from the balcony. The location is great. Within walking distance to all of the area favorites. We will definitely return for our future visits! Thank you Darlene and Jerry for sharing your little piece of paradise and being such wonderful hosts! Your condo is everything you described and more!

About the host

Host profile image
We are a fairy tale come true! High school sweethearts, we re-united "late" in life and are making the most of every single moment...that's why we moved here permanently from Indianapolis (still Colts fans!) in the spring of 2015. Having lived in the condo for a year while our new home was being built down the road in Wilmington, results in a well-equipped condo...and us close by for any questions you might have.

Only family and friends have been invited to share our dream on the beach. Now, we invite YOU and your family and friends to join the fun. It's a place you just have to experience to appreciate! You will want to return year after year (like we did!). In the meantime, we wish you sandy toes, sunburned noses, and salty kisses on Carolina Beach.

Why they chose this property

Walkable to everything! Ocean views from every room! Unobstructed views from pier to pier!

What makes this property unique

A cozy, cottage feel...doesn't feel like a rental...feels like home!
