Absolutely loved this placed. I get nervous turning the key at AB&B because sometimes the pictures from the sight are taken immediately after renovations and do not represent the used and abused accommodations. Had one small problem with a vent in a bathroom from too much condensation and it was fixed immediately.
This place was gorgeous, spacious , updated , cozy and the location was great. Walkable to beach and running/ walking trail. Many restaurants and great dessert places. Beach was lovely.
Perfect fit for my family. Great vacation!

Great house Great area Great stay
The house is BEAUTIFUL and spacious and three blocks from the beach. There's plenty to do also there are beach chairs and a wagon in the garage. We will definitely be back! I didn't like that I had to leave wish we had booked for a longer stay 😊

Great place
Clean, modern, great location. Enough space for my husband and our 8 kids! Simple check in and out process. Water was not hot after 9 people took showers . I have a large family so I go last and water was Luke warm.

Great beach house for my friend’s bachelorette weekend! It worked really well for our group of 10 and was a pleasant, short walk to the beautiful beach! I will note, they were not the greatest at getting back to me with my questions, particularly on how many cars could fit in the driveway, as we needed to fit 5 and it only listed 4. But we easily fit 5 and had space for at least two more cars honestly — if you had big trucks it may be less but you can fit at least one under carport and then fit two side by side and two behind that in the driveway (just on that side of the duplex). The other thing to note was that the back patio is not easily accessible from the house when inside— you have to go out by the driveway and walk around the house. Not an issue but didn’t realize that before so noting it here. Overall though, I’d rent this place again!

Carolina Beach Realty provided us with the perfect getaway from our busy lives with their beautiful Airbnb. Stocked with every amenity you would need and spotlessly clean, this is the perfect stay for a vacation at the beach and is just steps away from the ocean and terrific walking trails. We highly recommend and hope to stay again!

Our family loves the area, close to the beach and love the area restaurants. Very friendly people who live and visit the area. The house was great, nice floor plan and plenty of space for the family. Having some extra amenities like beach chairs and cart was very helpful when going to and from the beach easier. Will definitely be back.

This house became a comfortable and relaxing home away from home.
Loved the big, open rooms. I appreciated the consistent communication via texts. Easy check in/out. I wish it came with a golf cart, the walk was almost too far, haha.
