Beautiful piece of property and very clean. Nicely decorated and spacious. Enjoyed the small pool. One of the nicer properties in which I’ve stayed. My only complaint would be I did not really care for this beach area. While Kure beach was relatively quiet, the nearby Carolina beach was too commercial and crowded.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re so glad you enjoyed the home’s cleanliness, spacious layout, and pool. We do want to note that this property is located at Kure Beach, which offers a quieter and more laid-back atmosphere. Carolina Beach, while nearby, is not the beach this home is situated on, so it’s a bit unfair to judge your stay based on that. We’re happy you found the property itself to be one of the nicest you’ve stayed in. Thanks for trippin’ with iTrip!

This was a perfect setting for our family’s week at Kure beach. The house was exactly as listed- beautifully decorated, clean and well stocked with all the amenities we needed. Kitchen has great appliances and everything we needed for family meals while we were there (even for the kids!) Staff were super responsive and communicative in the time before and during our stay which we appreciated. Would definitely stay here again.

Excellent stay!
My family and I had an incredible stay! The home was recently built in the last couple of years and had wonderful finishes, appliances, and overall quality. The neighborhood pool is literally across the street, and the beach is a short 2-4 minute walk away. The management team was responsive when we had a small question/issue with the home. Highly recommend!

We strive to have great communication so I am so glad you noticed our quick responsiveness! We would love to have you back. Thanks for trippin' with iTrip!
We came for a long weekend and stayed with 2 other families, all with young children. The house was perfect for what we needed, everything very clean. The only “complaints” we had were very minor and were that the walk to the beach access was somewhat far with the young children, and the kitchen could have had more pot/pan options. Otherwise we loved it and had an amazing time! The pool access is super convenient as well.

We had a lovely stay at this new townhouse! Great furniture and beach/pool items available. Third floor living space open from kitchen to living room great for socializing with your guests. It was a 5-10 minute walk to the closest public beach access point and a decent pool for the neighborhood. The host kept in touch with us very frequently!

This was a lovely property, new construction in great condition, well decorated, with comfy beds. We enjoyed our stay with another family of young kids too. There was plenty of space to spread out. Mgmt was very welcoming and responsive to questions. It was a short walk to the beach and even shorter walk to the community pool. Would stay again!

"Carry Me Away" was the perfect spot for our family beach vacation. It looks just like the pictures. We were so excited when we drove up, found our bedrooms, and unpacked our groceries in the beautiful kitchen. The living room was perfect for our family meetings each night. The check-in and check-out procedure was very smooth and efficient. We could easily communicate with the owners. They were always very available.
The location was great on a very quiet street and just a 6 minute walk to the beach. We highly recommend :"Carry Me Away!"
I highly recommend this beach rental if you are looking to stay in Kure Beach. This townhome is in a great location. It's close to the pier, Fort Fisher State Park, Carolina Beach State Park and is a short walk to the public beach access. The property management company answered any questions we had immediately and added several other personal touches. This is a new townhome and the builder is finishing out the other townhomes in the development so it is an active construction site. However, we were aware of this when we booked and it did not diminish our experience.

Upscale appliances and finishes, great space but in need of hooks or extra storage in bathrooms, full length mirrors, and please more than 1 bath towel per person for this price! The elevator is a necessity with the steepness of stairs, and the TV 's required knowledge of how to manage streaming VS a simple cable system. The pool is across the street not as close as the picture suggests, but nice.The washer/dryer combo is excellent.

Thanks again for your review and thanks for trippin' with iTrip!
The townhome is beautiful and sits towards the back of the street. The community is quiet. The pool is across the street. When sitting on the third story deck, one can see a little bit of the Atlantic Ocean. Each bedroom has a sound machine to help with sleeping as some might go to bed before others. It’s an easy walk to the beach. The outside shower has warm water and helps prevent sand coming in the house. I appreciated having a garage to keep the car cool. We had a great vacation in this serene part of Kure Beach!
