This place was amazing! It had everything we needed for our stay. It’s right on the Carolina Beach Boardwalk! We felt like we were in the middle of everything! Parking was the best.

We had a great stay with our almost 4 year old! Loved the proximity to all the fun and the beach when having to lug chairs and beach toys. The view of fireworks in the evening was amazing as well. We walked just about everywhere we went for breakfast and dinner which is so nice. The condo was clean and bright and they even had some laundry soap I was able to use. I loved sitting on the patio and people watching while our son napped too!

We had a wonderful stay for our 10th wedding anniversary trip! We really enjoyed the condo and the location. We did have an issue with the AC during part of our stay, but the owners were very responsive, kept us updated, worked to get the issue repaired, and handled the inconvenience appropriately. We really appreciated how they handled everything.Overall, we had a great trip and truly enjoyed our time here. The condo was the perfect home base for our Carolina Beach vacation. We were able to park and walk basically everywhere in the Carolina Beach area. We especially enjoyed the time we got to spend on the balcony—you could even hear the local live music from there. We will definitely be staying again!

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the Kalypso's Nest. The unit was extremely clean, comfortable, well stocked with all your needs, and the view was amazing. It is very quiet and well insulated even though you are so close to all the action. The owners were very responsive and welcoming. Everything was easy and delightful. We look forward to a future stay. Highly recommend.

Nice place with a perfect location

This was a very nice place for a weekend getaway. We could see the ocean from the windows and the location is great as it’s in the heart of the boardwalk so there’s lots to do within walking distance. The owners were very nice and responsive as well!

Great location. Easy check-in. One of our family members uses a wheelchair and the elevator was plenty big enough for her and another person (unlike many of the elevators at the beach). We would stay again.

Kalypso's Nest was a sweet place to stay in the heart of Carolina Beach. Our favorite coffee shop is right next door and the boardwalk and beach are right across the street. The condo was very clean and bright with the wall of windows facing the ocean. Only thing that would have been helpfulwas another mirror so that two people could get ready at the same time. We would definitely stay again!!
