Perfect spot for our kids first beach trip and our 20th anniversary. The location was absolutly perfect. Right on the beach, & only a block away from all the shops and restaurants you could hope for. The rooms were spotlessly clean, well decorated (the bathroom looked brand new!) & stocked with everything you might need. It was so cozy & relaxing. We have never felt so at home on vacation. Claire was fantastic with communication & made sure we were taken care of.10/10 would recommend & would stay again.Trip highlights were surf lessons from Tony Silvagni's surf school (highly recommend & lessons meet almost directly in front of the house). Also Britt's doughnuts are a must do experience. Thanks again Claire for a wonderful week!
Morning coffee on the balcony. I was in love with this flamingo mug. Thanks Claire for being a lifesaver & having k-cups on hand because I accidentally brought regular.

Wonderful beachfront condo!

We absolutely loved our stay at Carolina Beach. The condo is just as the pictures show and right up on the beach. It was very clean (no dirty socks from walking on the floor!). We loved having so many restaurants within walking distance. It was a lovely stay for our honeymoon. We’ll never forget it!

Great place!

We loved staying at this location secondary to the location just a few minute walk from the lake and boardwalk area. It was a very comfortable and clean place to stay for my husband and myself. The view of the ocean from the balcony was amazing and the place had its own private walkway to the beach. We have spent several years traveling to Carolina Beach and this place is at the top of our list!

Short weekend getaway

What a wonderful little place! It was perfect for the two of us and our dog. We loved the close proximity to the boardwalk, the lake and a ton of restaurants. We had our morning coffee and almost all of our meals out on the balcony with the best ocean view (there were so many surfers to watch!) We will definitely be back!

This is a nice place to stay. Close to boardwalk. Great view. One suggestion is to paint the bunkbeds white and then when one gets in its not too claustrophobic.

Boardwalk/Beach friendly

This property is in close walking distance to the boardwalk and just a few steps to the beach. I love how clean and updated this unit is and is equipped with bedding, bath and kitchen essentials. The balcony has a perfect view of the ocean and the unit is walking distance from the lake that has a paved walking path. This was our second stay at this unit and after 15 years of coming to this area, this is one of best finds!

About the host

Hosted by Claire Giffin

Host profile image
Mert and I live in Winston Salem. I am semi-retired and he works in Chapel Hill. So we are used to being on the road...
We have one dog, Bailey, she goes everywhere with us, too!
The beach is a place of pleasure and renewal. We love to go, take Bailey and hang out-Mert enjoys fishing, especially in the Fall.
We are excited to become beach condo owners and hope you will enjoy being our guests!

Why they chose this property

Mert and I have been visiting Carolina Beach for years. The last 10 or so, we have rented in this building and most frequently from Scott Shackleton, great previous owner.
Mert's mom actually grew up on Carolina Beach! And where she met her husband, Mert’s dad, while he was stationed at Ft. Fisher Air Force base. So this location has been dear to us for a very long time.
During a recent visit, we mentioned to Scott we might like to purchase our own beach escape property, he said "let's talk" . We are now fortunate to have that dream beach escape condo! We are so excited!
We know you will enjoy this great beach escape getaway!

What makes this property unique

This condo has the best location! You can drive up, park and not have to get in your car again until you pack up to leave. It is easy walking distance to, of course, the beach, as well as, restaurants, shops, the lake park, boardwalk with all sorts of activities.
Or drive, ride a bike or rent a golf cart, less than 2-3 miles to Kure Beach, Ft. Fisher, the NC Aquarium and the Ferry to Southport.
Carolina Beach State Park offers a boat ramp, picnic area, hiking trails and so much more.
Fun everywhere!
