I enjoyed everything. It's a good place to get away with kids.- Posted: 9/2/2024
We love this house. The location is perfect for getting to the beach and the boardwalk. Our teens love the independence of being able to explore the surrounding neighborhood and get to the boardwalk on their bikes/skatebords/scooters. The house is clean and in very good operation. We've stayed at this location several times and have had minor issues. When we have, management's response was great- Posted: 7/6/2024
Thank you for your wonderful review! We are glad our home was a hit for the whole family. You have been great to host and we hope to see you again soon!Carolina Beach Realty staff
I had an incredible 11-night stay at this Airbnb. The house's ideal location and thoughtful amenities made it feel like a true home away from home. The tasteful modern decor and high ceilings added an elegant touch. Set in a peaceful neighborhood with minimal car traffic, it was perfect for leisurely walks with my dog. Just a short 7-minute walk led to stunning beaches, and a 15-minute stroll took me to Freeman Park, a national treasure. A definite highlight was the upstairs balcony, perfect for admiring breathtaking sunsets each evening. The ping pong table, foosball table, and dartboard resulted in unforgettable memories with our 3 young adults 19–> 23 years old. Highly recommend this rental for an unforgettable experience- Posted: 8/24/2023

Wonderful place and location!- Posted: 7/29/2023
My family had a great, relaxing week. In the garage, we were surprised to find a ping pong table, a dartboard and foozball table. These additions were excellent!- Posted: 4/14/2023
