Great place to stay. Clean, quiet environment for family. Only negative thing at all would be for anyone that isn’t able to navigate steps well; no elevator, but was known prior to stay and no problem for us. I would definitely recommend!!

Exceeded expectations.

Lovely condo. Nice family oriented community. Fabulous beach. The condo exceeded expectations. It was super clean, kitchen was well equipped, and the unit was very tastefully decorated. Not a single dolphin or flip flop in the place….thank you! It is a third floor walk up but that provided a lovely view from the spacious deck/patio I loved that sheets and towels were provided.

Check in and out was easy and had clear directions. The condo was clean, loved the aesthetics, art work and comfortable beds/furniture. Thankful for the amount of bath towels provided! Biggest plus was short walk to the beach and access to the pools! Traveling with 3 kids, youngest being under 1, the distance to beach was incredible. Carolina beach has a lot to offer, restaurants in walking distance and ice cream 3 min walk away. We didn’t get to explore everything we wanted, more due to enjoying beach time. The peloton bike was a great perk, huge reason why I chose this Condo however disclaimer - it is not calibrated and output/resistance is so off, so it needs some adjusting and updating. Overall a great trip!

Gorgeous View

Cozy 2 bedroom with a great view of the ocean. My wife and I stayed here for a week prior to the crowds hitting Carolina Beach. Walking distance to the boardwalk and across the street from the lake, this condo had an amazing location. Strong Wifi for both of our computers so we could work remote and the peloton bike was a nice addon for my wife as she used it each morning. Kitchen fully equipped for homemade dinners and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean made this a perfect place to stay. I would buy this condo if they ever wanted to sell it!

Great vacation

The condo was great It was clean and provided enough space for our family of 4. I do wish it would have veen communicated at the time of booking that we were staying in the 3rd floor and elevator access. Not ideal when traveling with a toddler. I did not like having to pick-up and drop off parking permits at a different location. Every other VRBO i have stayed in, provided parking passes in tbe condo if parking passes were required. Overall, the condo met our needs for our vacation.

Hi Jamie! Thank you for the review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay! We know it can be a pain to have to stop by our office on the way in, but Carolina Beach is very strict about parking, and complexes are very quick to tow. Physically handing parking passes to our guests and having them drop them off to ensure they are ready for the next guest helps save guests hundreds of dollars in tow charges. Come back again soon!

Pet hair in no pet property

Property listed as no pets and there was pet hair on furniture in living room and porch. Contacted property manager and they sent a crew to re clean property. When we talked to the property manager again they stated no pets didn’t mean that there were no pets allowed.
Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2022
Response from VrboOwner on 12 November 2022
Tim, Thank you for your feedback. We were happy that we were able to come back and address the issue. We understand your allergies as we have many guests that will call prior to their reservation or makes notes when completing their booking of allergies to pets, fragrances, etc. HOA’s can dictate whether or not rentals are allowed to have pets at the complex, however they are not allowed to dictate whether an owner can bring a pet or not. In this instance, since the property was not a “pet free” property, the owner could have had their personal dog in the unit, or the pet hair could have come from belongings of previous renters who had pets but did not bring them. Pet free properties are properties that do not allow pets whether it be by the owner or guests (typically this is a scenario where the owner is highly allergic to pet hair/ dander). Properties that are not pet friendly do not allow guests to bring pets but may allow the owner to bring their pets.

Property was as described with nice amenities. Location was perfect and in close walking distance to everything. Only complaint is the air conditioner was a little loud and the air vents were a bit dusty, but still worked well. We really enjoyed our stay.
