We had a really nice stay. This home was in close walking distance to the beach. The home was cute and cozy and we slept very well. If I had to suggest something to the owners, it would be to put an inexpensive pots and pans set and oven mits in the kitchen. Some families may not want to eat out every night and the kitchen is really nice. We would definitely rent again as we enjoyed our weekend stay.

Response from VrboOwner on Nov 24, 2025
We are happy to had a nice stay but very confused by your review! We supply tons of pots, pans, cookware, oven mitts etc! We have all you need in our kitchen to prepare meals at home. We had our cleaning lady come back to the home just to confirm that all is still there and didn’t “disappear” from another guest. We confirmed all is still there. Not sure if you didn’t check all the proper cabinets etc. but again we have everything you would need!

Hi Karen- we are so happy to see that you thought the house was nice, the elevator was convenient, easy access to the beach, etc. but slightly disappointed by your rating. We strive for high quality experiences for our guests. We let you change your booking very last minute. This caused us to take a large hit since it left last minute time open on our calendar that we were not able to book.

This was an excellent home away from home to stay! The home is built with quality materials and very beautiful and clean inside. The elevator was a plus, because two of us were not able to use the stairs due to health issues. It was a short walk to the beach and such a beautiful area. Would love to stay here again!

Fantastic Stay!

Carolina Skies was a fantastic place for our family beach vacation. Craig was great with communication before, during, and after our trip. The house is beautiful and in a great location. Beach access was easy and the beach chairs and cart were a great perk! We would definitely stay again if the opportunity arises.

Beautiful Place, Goegeous House

We loved our stay in this spacious, well-lit beautiful home. Communication with the owner was outstanding. Clean and clear open space and floor plan. The front and back decks were lovely and had many rockers and chairs. The washer and dryer, dishwasher, showerheads, and faucets were all new and were terrific quality.

We had a wonderful stay in Carolina Skies. Craig was responsive and helpful. The house was absolutely beautiful and well stocked. The bed was so comfy and so was the couch! Nice beach chairs and a cart. It was nice to be at this end of the island, close to restaurants and the bridge. We would definitely stay again!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Holden Beach when we started to visit here as a family a few years ago. We hope that you will love it as much as we do. We absolutely love this area of Holden Beach - the proximity/walkability to the beach, the park - where there is a wonderful playground, basketball court, splash pad etc. and absolutely amazing views of Intercoastal Waterway.
