About this property

Upscale beach cottage near beach with bikes

Our Salty Casita is only a 3-minute walk to the ocean at Kure Beach, and a short stroll to the fishing pier at Ocean Front Park and Pavillion along with restaurants and bars. This newly renovated beach home is equipped with brand-new furnishings and located in a quiet Kure Beach neighborhood, but not too far from grabbing a bite out or an ice cream from one of several businesses nearby. Neighboring Carolina Beach, it's boardwalk, restaurants and shopping is just minutes away via car or golf cart. Check out Fort Fisher, the NC Aquarium and the ferry to Southport only minutes away. The home's two bedrooms can accommodate 4 adults or 2 adults and 2 children. The second bedroom may be converted into one bed for a group with two couples. Both bedrooms have comfy mattresses, wall mounted TVs and the comforts of home with extra pillows and throw blankets. The kitchen is well stocked and includes a coffee nook with supplies, dining table for 4 and cookware for your dining preferences. Our living room has a couch and rattan rocker you won’t want to leave and a 55 inch TV to watch movies and TV shows along with a variety of games, books and activities for little ones. Come home from a day at the beach and enjoy the outdoor shower with hot and cold water, shampoo and body wash to rinse off your sandy toes and then relax on our backyard deck with patio lights and a gas grill to cook your favorite meal.

While you’re here, also check out Joe Eakes Park for bocce, disc golf, tennis or pickle ball. Explore the natural wonder at the Coquina Outcrop during low tide (we have a tide clock in our kitchen) near the Ft Fisher Recreation Park. Try and find the Venus Flytraps along the Venus Flytrap Trail at the Carolina Beach State Park along with several other hiking trails that wind along the Cape Fear River.

Let Kure Beach be your next favorite vacation spot whether you are traveling alone, as a couple or small family or with friends. The beauty and calmness of our Salty Casita will be your home-away-from-home beach destination. And because it’s a single family home, you won’t have to tolerate condo noise from other guests as you enjoy your getaway!

Lovely long weekend
Beautiful place with super thoughtful details and amenities. The hosts were so communicative and had tended to so many small things that made a big difference like a welcome card, having the firepit already set up for us, and leaving the porchlight on. Loved the quick walk to the beach and relative quiet compared with Carolina Beach. Would definitely recommend!

Perfect :)
My husband and I booked this house for a long weekend with my cousin and her husband. We had a family wedding to attend that was a few minutes from the house, which made it very easy and convenient. The house was ready ahead of time, was clean and well stocked with any and everything we could have needed. A very short walk to the beach where we saw SO many beautiful shells. Our stay was perfect for what we were looking for and had a great time.

Winter getaway from the north
Pleasant vicinity with easy access to beach. Enjoyable location for walks and shell hunting. Lights on when we arrived after dark made for a welcome arrival.

January stay
We loved the Salty Casita. Linda and John are wonderful hosts, their cottage is warm and inviting, and they have provided for every need. We loved the proximity to the beach and the fire pit. Their place is spotless and quiet. We’d love to visit again. Thank you for hosting us!

Perfect House & Excellent Location!! A++
A weekend stay with my husband and two kids. Great location, 2 blocks from public beach access and a short drive to an awesome aquarium. The home was perfect for our family; the kitchen was well appointed, beach toys and beach cart available for use. The beach cart was especially appreciated! The home has access to two adult beach cruisers and the firepit was stocked with wood. The beds were comfy (better than other VRBO's we've stayed in) with extra pillows and blankets. The hosts had decorated for the holidays and had a hot cocoa bar and cookies for the kids. Seriously, just a lovely stay. The hosts had excellent communication with us. No notes. Just lovely in all regards. We will be back for sure. This is definitely going to be our go to location when we visit Kure Beach in the future!
Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023
