Banana Cabana was in a good location. Our check in was delayed a bit. The cleaners were working hard but did not have the house ready. We understand they were short staffed. The gas grill was unusable and there were a few cleanliness issues….AND Carolina Beach Realty was responsive when we reached out to them. They brought us a new charcoal grill with everything we needed for it. And a cleaning crew came back to take care of any issues. Everything considered it was a good experience!

I booked Banana Cabana to take my elderly parents to Carolina Beach to visit my daughter that lives in the area. Banana Cabana had everything that we needed including an elevator and rooms suitable for everyone. The hot tub was perfect for chilly nights. We stayed during Hurricane Ian and the management company did a great job of keeping us informed. We even saw people from the office securing our house and neighbors' outdoor furniture before the storm. There were even games and puzzles that were convenient for the stormy days. The home was so well maintained by the owner and the property management company. One of our favorite places that we have stayed at in Carolina Beach! We highly recommend Banana Cabana!

Had a good week at the banana cabana. Location is great. Hot tub heat control by app doesn’t really work but not a huge deal.
