We really enjoyed our stay. Carolina beach had a lot to offer, and the host was so very helpful and very responsive. The elevator was very easy to use and for those booking and looking at the video of how to work the elevator, that video is out of date as the door/floor numbers have changed and the latching system has been upgraded. The only real complaint I have which keeps this booking from a 10 of 10 is the decor and the mattresses. The decor is mixed from the 1980's pineapple theme vs mermaids which date unit. They have carpets covering the top of the bedside stands and coverings over the furniture which is dingy. I am sure it protects the furniture, but it is not a high class look. The master bed and other beds are very noisy. I am not sure if the host of this property has recently sat on the bed, but you can't sit or move around on the bed without a making massive noise. So, if you turn over in your sleep expect to be woken up. The pillows are covered in a plastic wrap just like much of the furniture in the home which is another oddity. What we all really enjoyed, there was plenty of space. The beach access and beach quality was really great. The deck space was very enjoyable. The location, proximity to the boardwalk was so very convenient. You really don't need to drive anywhere once there but if so every amenity, grocery stores, dining, etc. are all within 5 minutes. We traveled with 3 adults and one child. We all agreed we would rent here again and rate it a 7.5
