Beach paradise

My family and I have stayed at several vacation rentals in Carolina Beach, I can honestly say by far this has been our best experience. Not only did we have a private pool, but we had a shed full of beach toys, bicycles, grill, and lots of other fun stuff. The house also had plenty of beach towels to go around. The house was perfect, including everything that our family needed on our stay. Upon arrival check-in was very easy and my favorite part was the little notes throughout the house to remind us of things. That made our stay so much easier. I can’t wait to vacation here again, thanks for the best stay ever.

Stay over Christmas break.

I will start with the 1 positive. The house was a 5 minute walk to a very nice beach, so when the weather is warm it would be good. The house had a pool and "Hot Tub" the pool was clean but freezer and the hot tub was not hot. Yes it did say that in the advertise ment but it was buried in the description. Also the fire pit ran out of propane and the tank was not refilled . So for 2 nights we had not firepit/place. We were told that since its the holiday it would not get refilled, but the point is that it should have been checked before we checked in. The condition of the house was clean and ok.

Great Set Up

The house was cute. The pool area was awesome. Really liked that they had everything you needed for a fun day at the beach. The bedrooms were small except master. The carpets appeared dirty. The kitchen was mostly well equipped, however there was very few glasses and mugs for 6 grown ups. The one big issue I had with the house is I had to call management to report that none of the windows locked and I didn’t feel safe. They did send someone over to fix that. But The rental agent was not very pleasant to deal with and made me dumb.

Okay place

Pro:The location is good, close to the beach. The place appeared to be clean. Cons: When we arrived it had rained so the driveway and front yard was flooded. We were told there was a “puddle” in the driveway. My friends and I had to go around back to get in through flooded yard or take of shoes and walk through flood. Was told nothing they can do about that. Second night the firepit didn’t work. Owner sent someone out day later and we were told the previous guests might have left it on. Nothing they could do about that. In the morning we were awakened by a beeping low battery fire alarm. That was obviously not checked before the next customer arrived either. Owner dropped off batteries in mailbox to fix that problem but in the meantime I had to use remote control batteries to temporarily silence it. No remote control at that point. Empty dryers sheet box left in bathroom (why not just throw it away) . There were signs notifying us about cockroaches being normal in that area but that was not cool seeing those giant things in the house, esp with girls. We were refunded 1 nights stay. Probably will not return.
