Perfect for families, couples as a romantic getaway, two couples traveling together, or retirees. Maximum occupancy for my condo is six.

My "Home on the Beach" is in a beautiful oceanfront condominium, "A Place at the Beach." The only thing between my condominium and the beach are the sand dunes. The fantastic views from my third floor balcony include beautiful sunrises and glowing sea at sunsets, fishing boats and sailboats, playful dolphins and birds, surfers and swimmers, and other beach activities.

My private balcony has two tall chairs. I feel like I have a million dollar view. The porch on the street side overlooks our condo's private pool. Even though this unit is on the third floor there are only two flights of steps, since the first floor is almost ground level.

Our beach access is at the north end of the building. A definite plus is a Carolina Beach lifeguard stand situated at the end of our beach access.

One enters my home through the spacious kitchen and can see through the family room to the rolling ocean waves. The kitchen is fully-equipped and has plenty of storage space. There is a large utility cart and a storage cabinet in addition to the built-in kitchen cabinets. Both of these match the wooden and white ceramic tile table and four wooden chairs. A bar that separates the kitchen and family seats four.

Now to the family room. Both the kitchen and the family room are decorated with many lighthouses. I call the kitchen and family rooms my "lighthouse" rooms. The large family room contains a pull-out queen sofabed and two recliners. Shell lamps accent the two bamboo and glass end tables and a floor lamp lights one of the recliners.

The family room also has a TV, DVD player, and stereo with CD player in a bamboo and glass entertainment center. New to the entertainment, is are free Wireless Internet Access!!

Sliding glass doors lead to balcony overlooking the ocean. The ocean can also be seen from a long window near the sliding doors. In the corner near the window are three small artificial trees with "beachy" decorations.

The master bedroom has a full bath, TV and VCR player, window view of ocean and private entrance to balcony. This room is furnished with a bamboo & wood queen-size bed and matching dresser, chest and night stands. The fishing net and shell window treatment enhance the bed’s shell comforter. The bathroom and bedroom are decorated with shells and lighthouses. You guessed it. I call these rooms my "shell rooms."

The second bedroom is my "tropical room." It has a twin bed and a bunkbed with a twin on top and a double on bottom. The fishing net with tropical flowers draws attention to the tropical floral comforters on the beds. Both beds are white metal. This room also contains a small table, white night stand with a tropical fish lamp and white four-drawer chest and a TV.

Carolina Beach is located about halfway between New York and Florida on the southeastern coast of North Carolina on a beautiful and quiet island. Pleasure Island is the larger of the two barrier islands on the Cape Fear Coast. The beaches are wide, beautiful, sandy and not crowded (even in peak season). Carolina Beach is great for sunseekers, beachcombers, moonlit beach walks, nature lovers (Carolina Beach State Park), fishermen and water sports enthusiasts.

Some other activities, interest and necessities in Carolina Beach are Carolina Beach Pier (.8 mile), Boardwalk (.8 mile), Wheel Fun Rentals (with unique bikes, surreys and pedal go-carts), shops, restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacies and medical center. All are within 2 miles (many within walking distance) of condo.

The island itself has many other points of interest. Since the island is so small you aren't very far from anything. Kure Beach with its fishing pier, beach trolley tours, many shops and restaurants is about a 3.5-mile drive. The southern most part of the island is only 7.5 miles from condo. Here you will find the NC Aquarium, Fort Fisher Historic Site, Fort Fisher/Southport Ferry and Zeke's Island estuarine complex.

    • My family very much enjoyed our first trip to Carolina Beach. This condo met all of our expectations. It was clean and well equipped for everything that we needed. The complex along with this unit is clean and well maintained. The pool is an added bonus and is also clean. The beach area is not at all crowded and we did see dolphins swim by. Fireworks from the boardwalk can also be seen from this beach. I would recommend this condo to anyone looking for a quiet relaxing beach vacation.

    • Well, my family and I have just finished unpacking from our trip to Carolina Beach. Over the past 10 years or so, we have stayed in 4 different units at this condo and other family members have stayed in 4 or 5 of the other units. This unit by far is our favorite. We cook in more than we eat out and the kitchen was well equipped. The electric grill was great for burgers. The great view from the balcony was well worth the 3 short flights of stairs. We also enjoyed each room having its own theme with the decorations. Again, this is an awesome unit and the owner is great to talk to and deal with. We rate it a 10+. Thanks again for allowing us to rent from you.

    • July 5-12th 2008 Our family had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful Ocean front condo. We traveled with 3 kids ages 15, 9, and 2. The condo was very welcoming to all of our children. The short walk to the beach was great for our little one. It was a pleasure to have access to the beach chairs and all of the extras in the storage room. I would tell all of my freinds and family members to rent this condo. The owner was very nice and made renting this condo a pleasent one. I am glad that I found this condo it is really a needle in a hay stack....

    • Me and my family have spent our vacation at your beach front condo for two summers now, and we really enjoy it. It has a wonderful view of the ocean, and it is very quiet and peaceful, It has also been very clean both times we have visited, it is a beautiful condo. If you just want a place to sit back and relax this is a wonderful place to do that. We have also had the pleasure of watching the dolphins from the balcony on both our visits. Thanks for allowing me and my family the pleasures of staying in your beautiful beach home.

    • Great location,great view,well-equipped condo. Even though it is in a complex, the condo was very private and quiet.However,the condo was not cleaned adequately when we arrived but Ann did refund our cleaning deposit to us. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our stay.

      Homeowner Response:
      The renters had a great attitude and didn't let this spoil their vacation. I have a really great cleaning lady. She always does a wonderful job. However, this time she had put my rental schedule on her clipboard backwards and didn't think my rentals started until July. This had never happened before and I have learned from this experience. I do check with her now to make sure she has been there.

    • My whole family were able to enjoy the beach condo. It was very convenient for all but it was secluded enough not to be over-run by all the vacationers. It is also located close to lots of historical events you can see. I recommend the Henrietta III Murder Mystery Cruise.

    • My husband and I loved the location of the condo. Having a pool added an extra feature. The inside of the condo was very confortable and clean. Our first experience renting in NC was definitely a positive one.

    • The condo has a spectacular view right on the Atlantic Ocean. The beach was safe, clean and had life guards on duty during the day. You can fish, swim, surf, boogie board, walk to town or just relax. There is a nice pool at the condo. The condo is furnished with almost everything. The place is neat, clean and comfortable. On our last night we sat on the beach and watched the Carolina Beach fireworks display over the ocean.
