Wasn’t what I was expecting but still awesome!

The pictures make the condo appear larger than it really was, but it was still plenty of room for 4 guest though. The room was clean and very comfortable. The view of the ocean from the balcony was perfect. The Property owners were very responsive and helpful. The conditions for my dogs weren’t ideal because you had to search for grass that didn’t have signs that said no poop or peeing. I suggest you take your dogs to the sand every time they use the bathroom to get them use to it. There is grassy areas they can use the bathroom but you have to find them. Overall I give this condo a 4.8 out of 5. My stay was very relaxing and rejuvenating. I would definitely go back and stay in the very same room. Very pleased with my stay.

Great Girls Get-Away

Rented for an extended girls weekend. 4 generations who love the beach and seafood. Property location was great with excellent beach access, wonderful views, and a comfortable stay. Could benefit from an added outdoor spigot/shower to clean off sand. Floors are somewhat uneven.

A Little Slice of Heaven

Our stay was pure enjoyment, all around. What a beautiful and clean condo with an exceptional view! We didn't want to leave. Carolina beach is such a special place, and this condo made it even more special. It's convenient to all the great restaurants and spots yet it felt very private and peaceful. We were so grateful that we could bring our dog along, too! We will definitely be staying at this little gem again!

Great home base

We booked this condo to use as a home base while we saw our extended family for Thanksgiving. The property had everything we needed for simple meal prep, and our dogs were happy with the scenery from the back porch. We watched the sunrise every morning-directly in front of the porch. We were able to walk on the north end with the dogs every day-wide open spaces, and much needed relaxing time.

Great location, but needs some care

Due to medical reasons for my large dog, I needed a location that had an easy way to enjoy the ocean view and beach. This did that for sure. However, the unit is not quite what it’s portrayed online. I’m am not new to VRBO on the island, but this is my least desired place. Arrived with previous guests dirty linens and no made beds. Rectified immediately- this was great. The living room is not the furniture in the picture. There is no futon as in description. The couch and loveseat were covered with furniture covering I’m guessing not designed for that style because the cushions would not stay on the couches. You sit down - they suck you up or cushions fall out beneath you plus overall don’t feel clean. The flooring regardless if i vacuumed, which I did, or broom clings on to sand. You wipe your feet on the inside mat - it was wet and made your feet dirtier. They advertise and show a picture of a full size washer/dryer - true, looks just like the photo. But, if you open the washer it’s ring and inside has mold on it. The unit structurally flooring isn’t level - fridge tilts as a result and just feels weird. But the constant wet feeling flooring with sand just feels grubby walking through. Lastly, not unit related was outside repairs happening on units above. Machine noise and which triggered my dogs - made for a difficult to work or enjoy ocean view. Plus, there was no prior notice, I would have changed my reservation to a diff unit, not good for dog at all.
