“We had a wonderful stay at this VRBO! The home was very clean and beautifully decorated with a relaxing beach theme. It was also very pet-friendly, with a safe backyard that was perfect for our dogs.We did have an issue with the air conditioning, but the host responded quickly and had the problem taken care of right away. Even though they own other businesses and stay busy, they were attentive and made sure we were comfortable.The golf cart rental was reasonably priced and a great addition to our trip. We also appreciated all the little extras provided, including laundry detergent, fabric softener, and dryer sheets—it really made us feel at home.Overall, this property was comfortable, well-equipped, and managed by caring hosts

About the host

Hosted by Amy Webster

Host profile image
Hello, this was me and my husband's first renovation and we are so proud of our accomplishment. This house means so much to us and we look forward to families creating memories at FISHTALES. We have been on Carolina Beach for 12 years and just love so much this laid back, fun and cute island. There is plenty to do without all the insanity of the busier beaches. We are easy going people that enjoy our life and hope that others will come to Pleasure Island and do the same. We also own a restaurant just a few minutes from FISHTALES called POP'S DINER and hope that we see you there. We take pride in everything we do and have worked so hard to build a beautiful house and an outstanding restaurant, so relax, chill out and enjoy your time here.

Why they chose this property

This house gives off an industrial but beachy vibe. It is cozy and comfortable yet simple with no clutter but has everything you need. It is off the main road enough that you can enjoy peace and quiet, but you are within minutes to all the excitement. It is a great place in the summer with soooo much to do, but believe me the fall, winter and spring offers so much relaxation, parts of the beach to yourself. long crisp walks, no waiting lists at the local restaurants and a bar stool at every bar for your favorite drinks. It is also a quick drive to Myrtle Beach for the day to do some outlet shopping or some mainstream museums, dining and entertainment.

What makes this property unique

This house has a huge driveway for RV or boat parking. The laundry room has plenty of storage for your fishing poles and anything that you would like to lock up. It also has an industrial length hose so you can wash your boat easily. The firepit is great for those cool crisp nights and is fully fenced foe privacy. The floors are done with epoxy for easy clean up. There are TV's in every room and a boombox for your music. Our neighbors have chickens so don't be shocked if you see them in our yard or driveway. They are curious but not harmful.
