"This house was perfect for us! We had family of all ages. The kids loved the pool! It was still super warm in November. My stepdad made great use of the elevator. The kitchen was really well stocked with everything you could need! We all enjoyed the sunrise over coffee in the morning and the private beach access! Carolina Beach Realty was quick to respond when their office opened and had an emergency number if anything happened. I would definitely stay again!"

"We loved the location, pool, views from deck, size and layout of rooms. We stayed at the end of season and house could have used a better cleaning, fewer flies and television remotes that were in the right rooms. I think there were 8 televisions with 16+ remotes scattered around the house. Eventually we had to call technician to figure out which remotes should be used. It would be helpful to mark TV's and remotes. There may have been instruction book for the house earlier in the season, but none for our visit. Would definitely stay again, even if same problems. "

"We stayed for an extended weekend and would do it again. Great location, right on the beach, quiet, and safe. We had 6 people and each person had their own large room and private bathroom, 5 of us also had balcony access. Overall this was exactly what we were looking for."

"Beautiful stay for my friends and I! We spent most of our days out by the pool and the easy private beach access from the pool was wonderful. The space was plentiful big and each room having their own bathroom was wonderful. I would stay here again in a heartbeat."

"We had an AMAZING stay! The home was perfect for our extended family spring break trip that included my two young toddlers, their grandparents, aunts and cousin. We hope to be back when the weather is warmer so that we can truly enjoy the beachfront and pool. The home’s elevator was incredibly helpful, especially with all of our heavy luggage. It was also an incredible luxury that each bedroom had its own en suite bathroom. The kitchen was very well stocked with all the supplies you could possibly need. The hosts were great and very responsive anytime we reached out with questions."

"Beautiful in October! - This is a nice rental house with many amenities and a fully stocked kitchen. The view is spectacular and with a sunny deck and a shady one, there are plenty of options for enjoying it. Check-in was easy and the beds were made as promised. I do have a couple of small-ish quibbles that may improve the next guests' experience: the sheets on my king bed did not fit the deep-pocket mattress and bunched up every night--very irritating; there are no side tables on the decks to hold coffee, phone, books, etc; there are no chairs in any bedrooms, nowhere to sit other than the bed while dressing, putting on makeup, etc; one kitchen towel and one dishcloth are not enough for a house that holds 16 guests! But those were relatively minor issues that did not prohibit our enjoying our stay."

"As Good As It Gets - The house wasn't spotless, but it was very clean. It didn't seems like the pool was heated, which would have been nice, especially as the property says the pool is heated. Everything was in great shape, expect the couch. The cushions were detaching at the seams. There was plenty of everything we needed, even board games ans puzzles. We will definitely be going back!"

"We had an awesome stay!!! Loved the house it was great for our large family. Plenty of rooms, 2 refrigerators, 2 washing machines. We could walk right out on the beach. And the pool was huge. My only suggestion would be to provide better bath towels and a few of the mattresses needed to be replaced. And we had an issue with flies in the house.

"This house was ideal for our family of 13. It has a fairly large deep pool with a fence around it. The beach was only steps away from the house. We enjoyed the large living area with a couch that accommodated 10. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and dishes. No spices except salt and pepper.
5 of the 7 bedrooms have full windows facing the ocean. Most important - the air conditioning worked well on sweltering days. The kitchen appliances are dated but adequate; but be prepared to bring your own ice. Two laundry rooms were a plus with really good washers and dryers.
Plenty of deck chairs on the 2 decks. Nice shade in the afternoon for swimming and deck sitting. 😎

"Family Vacation - Family time is important to us . We have 6 children ages teenager to toddlers. Everyone in our family had there own room and bathroom. We rented bicycles and rode to the aquarium down the road. The house made me feel safe with the gated pool.
The short steps to the beach are an added plus with kids in tow. Thank you for sharing your home with us!!"

"Best Family Vacay ! So Serene! - This property was everything it advertised. This house made everything feel like home with my family. The rooms all had their own baths in them and the home was big enough to take my large family but yet have privacy on their own. The elevator made all the difference getting my mother to the main level from the garage area. It was so easy and was so beneficial when loading and unloading our cars as well.
The kitchen was well equipped with everything you need and the two refrigerators were so helpful .
This vacation meant everything to us as my mother has cancer so we wanted the perfect place for her to be able to relax with her children and grandchildren. She was able to watch everyone swim below in the heated pool while she watched them outside on the deck.
If you are looking for a beautiful, well-furnished home that has everything to offer you , look no one and book this one!! You will be thankful you did. We will be back for sure!!
Thank you again for letting us book for gorgeous home! I can't describe what this meant to us to have the perfect place."
