About this property

Past Guests:
We are sad to inform you all that have made the sad decision to see our Beach Dreams. :( Chip & I are so very thankful to each and everyone of you that chose to spend your vacation with us. We have made so many friends along the way. It is bittersweet indeed.

Currently the complex where Beach Dreams is located is under construction/repairs. PLEASE know you may NOT access the ocean front balcony at any point during your stay. If you go out onto the balcony you will be asked to leave immediately and no refunds given. You may NOT access the ocean side balcony at any point during your stay. The railing repairs will be complete in 2024.

This beautiful condo has everything you need for a vacation to remember!

Spectacular ocean front views from the Living Room and Master Bedroom. The pool is visible from the balconies and living room. Our complex is a small one with only five floors. There is an elevator but the stairs are close to our door. Beach Dreams is on the second floor.

Wi-fi and cable are provided as well as small selection of games, puzzles and books. We provide your beach chairs! (and bocce ball) So just bring your swimsuit. Stunning sunsets, dolphin watching and sandy beaches to make memories that will last a lifetime and will keep you coming back year after year!

Beach getaway

We had a great time at beach dreams. The condo had everything that you could ask for and more. We were all very comfortable and the place was very relaxing.The location was perfect and we loved being able to just walk out to the pool or beach. The pool was never crowded and the beach was also not crowded. This was our first time visiting Atlantic Beach and we will return! Thank you for a great stay!

Beautiful getaway

We definitely enjoyed our stay, loving the oceanfront view and super easy beach access. Beach was not super crowded in front of Smuggler's Cove as it was further up and down beach. Great location! Beautifully decorated!

Wonderful place, amazing view & peaceful stay!

Every year we look for a place for vacations, we had a reservation somewhere else, for some reason they canceled and We find this outstanding place, very good price and it was perfect for my family. BEACH DREAMS! Is exceptional, it was beyond my expectations, super clean, the decoration is beautiful and the view breath taking. Steps from the beach, pool very nice and clean, my kids expend a lot of time in the pool, they had a blast! Very peaceful energy and very quiet place, I did not hear any loud noises, just the waves at night. New washer and dryer, full equipped kitchen with a Keurig coffee maker (true highlight 😉) We are a family of 5 (3 kids; 16yo, 8yo & 3yo) so I had to cook and I love the kitchen super clean, we really felt we were at home, Gina & Chip were super nice, always responding immediately, asking if we needed anything. We really love this home. I recommend it 100% you will have a wonderful time here. Thanks Gina and Chip!

Smugglers Cove

We could not go out on the balcony and if we opened the curtains in the bedroom during the day the room would get very hot.

About the host

Hosted by Gina Haubenstein

We purchased "Beach Dreams" in 2019 after falling in love immediately. Chip grew up in the mountains of Maryland and Gina grew up in the mountains of Virginia. We met while my (now husband) was a Drill Instructor at Parris Island. After serving in the USMC for 30 years he retired and we never left the coast. We both love the salt water and all it has to offer. We are at Beach Dreams when you are not!

Things I have to say but shouldn't have to:
Our furniture is not waterproof. Please don't sit on chairs/sofa/bed in wet swimsuits. Please shake your towels/swimsuits prior to washing/drying. The machines don't process sand so well.
Although this building looks like a hotel it is not. Every unit there is individually owned. We have year-round residents.
During your stay should any of your actions result in a fine from the condo association that fee will be passed along to you. Please behave.

Why they chose this property

The Carteret County area of coastal North Carolina is a step back in time. We are a slow, sleepy, proud community. There are not many chain restaurants (and we like it like that) malls or bright lights. But what we do have is amazing! All the salt water and activities it has to offer and endless. Blackbeard, fishing (The Big Rock tournament is a huge event), boating,The NC Seafood Festival, diving, swimming and simply shell hunting. The Cape Lookout lighthouse can be seen on a clear day from our balcony.
"Beach Dreams" is just that. A dream come true, right on the beach!
