Over the Moon was an amazing property! The beach view and access to the beach was perfect. The house had everything needed to make it such an enjoyable vacation. It is close enough to enjoy great restaurants and all that the area has to offer, yet far enough away to have the retreat from the hustle and bustle. Such a great spot to vacation!

A beautiful home right on the beach. Kure beach is a very quiet, family friendly beach perfect for relaxing. The house was probably the cleanest and best kept properties I've ever stayed at on the beach.

The best home away from home!

We had a wonderful stay at Over the Moon. We loved it so much in June we immediately rebooked for August. The home is clean bright & spacious. Carolina retreats is the best, we had car trouble and they helped guide us to a mechanic who took great care of us. Any questions were addressed immediately. And we couldn’t be happier with the house and our hosts!

Overall stay was well worth it! One thing that was my fault was not considering the steps to get around in the house! It makes it hard on old people like myself to get settled in! Totally my fault for not considering that one detail!

Wonderful stay

Nice house with wonderful beach. House does have lots of stairs but who cant use the exercise!! Large kitchen and living room area was nice on 2nd floor, master BR and 2nd BR w/bunks is on 3rd floor while 3rd BR is on 1st floor. FYI, grill is charcoal only. Pier was a short bike ride (4 blocks) and teenagers did plenty of fishing. Beach area was not crowded even with the public access so close. Love being able to use our canopy tents and not fighting with umbrellas. Would recommend to anyone.

Amazing House

We had the pleasure of staying at "Over the Moon" for a winter beach vacation. It was an amazing house with breath taking views. It was impeccably clean and perfect for our family of 5. The location was great as we were close to both Carolina Beach and Fort Fisher. Our kids love the Aquarium at Fort Fisher, which was 5 min down the road. They were in heaven! The drive into Wilmington was easy as well. The weather wasn't too great when we were there. We were stuck inside for a few days but the view of the ocean was all we needed. We would highly recommend this beach house to anyone and everyone!

Semi-comfortable

We absolutely loved the location of the home and being able to walk right out to the beach. It is a short walk/drive to the Kure pier and dining, a short drive to the Carolina beach board walk and we did take the ferry to visit the town of Southport. The area is not very biker friendly. The house itself left a few things to be desired. Some furnishing and fixtures are outdated, which I think made the house feel dirty. We are a family of 4. We have a teenager and preteen and we found we were not comfortable in the living room watching a movie together. The beds were not the comfiest. There was plenty of eating space. There was not a dustpan to be found to sweep up any sand tracked in. Each bathroom hardly had any hand soap left and that was not one of the items listed to bring therefore we did not come supplied with any. There was not a trash bag in the kitchen trash can when we arrived. The home has both a kuerig and a coffee pot that uses #4 filters. The view however was amazing and we did spend most of our time on the beach! I would stay again, but if I could recommend anything a large sectional sofa and a king size bed with a nice mattress would have made the stay amazing!

We are over the moon for Over The Moon!

We enjoyed a great long weekend with my parents and our 3 kids. The view from the main floor is truly unbeatable. The home was beautiful, well appointed, and clean. We loved being able to have our own private access to the beach as well as its location near the aquarium and fort fisher. We were also a short drive to the grocery store and restaurants. We would love to return to this property in the future!
