Perfect location! It was nice and clean. Could use a few updates and it was disappointing that the washer and dryer were out of service but would definitely stay there again. We called the host and they were happy to replace our bath towels half way through our stay. They also recommended Pleasure Island Rentals for beach chairs/umbrellas and their service was outstanding!

The stairs were an issue for my father. That needs to be in bold in the listing. Also there is only one parking spot and I did not notice that. That was very inconvenient since my family was bringing two cars. The view was beautiful and check in was easy.

The location was perfect!! It close to everything and everywhere we needed to be. It was quiet and the beach was right there. The bathrooms were small. I love that there was an exit in every room to the porch or balcony.

Melissa - We're happy to hear that you enjoyed Corner Penthouse! The large top floor furnished ocean front deck is perfect for lounging and listening to the waves crash. Relax on the deck early morning the catch one of our beautiful Carolina sunrises, memories that will last lifetimes. Thank you for allowing Corner Penthouse to host your beach family vacation! We're looking forward to your next visit to paradise soon!
Loved being right on the beach. Beautiful porch area! Place could use updates in bathrooms and kitchen but overall nice place to stay. Some communication issues between owner and realtor (owner didn’t know about booking and left items in the kitchen that made it appear unkempt but was quickly resolved).

We enjoyed the location and all in all everything was fine. We did have an issue with parking as we ended up needing to take 2 vehicles for this trip. I understand completely that there is only 1 vehicle per unit allowed - even though the property was clearly not at capacity the week we stayed - however, when I called for a possible solution the rental company was "0" help and more or less told me - it was my problem to figure out. We had never stayed in this area before and had no clue what to do and they were very quick to offer NO help whatsoever. We figured it out but having at least a kind voice to help out when you first arrive at a new vacation spot - would have gone a LONG way!

Thank you for providing your feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. While we are glad to hear that you enjoyed the location and overall found everything to be satisfactory. We understand your frustration with the lack of support from our, and we will review this feedback to identify areas for improvement in our customer service, but when it comes to parking for additional cars at the complex our hands are tied. Parking in Carolina Beach is very strict, and it is managed and watched closely by the town and HOAs. However, your comments will help us enhance the experience for future guests. We hope you were still able to have an enjoyable stay despite this challenge, and we appreciate your understanding.

We had a wonderful time at our rental. The view was amazing and just steps from the beach. The kitchen could have been stocked a little more but overall it was great. The 3 flights up were a little tiring especially with groceries and a 2 year old.

We had stayed in this unit before so we thought we knew how it was. The washer had broke so there was no longer a washer. Not enough towels to cover the week since we couldnt wash them. Had to park our second vehicle 1 mile away. Bullard realty is supposed to be overflow parking. Didnt get through to them until Wednesday. I like the location but will not stay in this unit again.

Unfortunately, the furniture and fixtures showed signs of wear (broken pieces, torn curtains, etc), the television in the main room didn’t function, dishes were dirty, exposed drywall tape on walls, missing trim in bathroom, exhaust fans not functioning, and holes in the wall hidden behind furniture.In addition to that, documents provided by rental agency indicate additional parking available in non peak season. Competing rentals in the same HOA confirm additional parking available by rule. Yet this rental refused additional parking, incorrectly citing HOA rules. Costing additional daily public parking during the stay while parking lot averaged 5-6 empty spaces all week.The management company was responsive when contacted. However repairing the quality of the rental condo is obviously not an option while trying to enjoy our vacation and they were incapable of correcting the parking issue for some reason. Overall, a decent ocean front rental, but the price was not representative of the quality which would deter me from returning having stayed in much better quality in the same area in previous years for competitive pricing.
