Great place to stay as its clean and just about everything is provided and good quality, except for the beach chair. I'd recommend looking into renting beach chairs and an umbrella. Great location with short walk to the beach, to the boardwalk, to the market to get some groceries, and to lots of places to eat. Definitely enjoyed my stay and would stay here again.

We couldn’t have asked for a better rental experience! The owner has thought of (and stocked up on) everything you could possibly need while on a beach getaway. We had plenty of towels, welcome snacks, and lots of toiletries to use during our stay. The location was fabulous- right near public beach assess and plenty of restaurants were nearby. I highly recommend this property and we will definitely book it for our next stay at Carolina beach.

Just Right!

Our stay at the condo was great. The hosts thought of everything! We appreciated that the location was walking distance to the beach and that it was quiet during the evenings and night. We were very comfortable at the condo, felt safe and near to many wonderful places to eat. We highly recommend this condo as a place to stay.

Great location and set up perfectly.

We had a last minute change of plans and found this listing. It was in a great location, within walking distance of the beach, coffee shops and many restaurants. The space was very clean and the hosts provided great items, like places to go, restaurants, snacks and any travel items you might forget or run out. The host was very responsive too. Would recommend and stay at again! Thank you!

Great location! We did not have to drive the whole week except a run to the grocery store. Which we didnt have to buy much, because so many things, like mayo, mustard and ketchup were already there. Even some coffee (it’s a Keurig by the way.) The pool is close and cleaned every day. Small glitch with the AC when we first arrived but the owners responded quickly and got it fixed the next day. So many restaurants and free entertainment within walking distance - never a dull moment in CB!
