About this property
Octopus's Garden | Oceanfront Retreat w/ Elevator + Beach Access
Welcome to Octopus’s Garden, a five-bedroom, three and a half-bath oceanfront paradise on Carolina Beach, North Carolina, accommodating up to 12 guests. With decks on every level offering stunning ocean views, direct beach access, and playful octopus-themed décor throughout, this vibrant retreat is perfect for families, friends, or anyone seeking the ultimate beach escape. New to Carolina Retreats, Octopus’s Garden earned fantastic reviews with its previous management company, and we can’t wait to welcome you for your own five-star stay!
Step outside and feel the sand between your toes via direct beach access, or enjoy your morning coffee from multiple levels of beachside decks. The ground-level patio features comfortable seating, a grill, and an outdoor shower—ideal for rinsing off after a day in the sun. For added convenience, the home also offers elevator access to all levels, making it easy to move between floors with ease.
Inside, bright, airy rooms combine nautical touches with high-end finishes, creating a stylish yet comfortable coastal retreat. The second level is the heart of the home, featuring an open-concept living room and chef-ready kitchen, ideal for gatherings, meals, and making memories. Step out onto the oceanfront deck for al fresco dining while soaking in breathtaking Atlantic views. A convenient half bath completes this level.
On the top level, two luxurious primary suites offer ultimate privacy. One king suite includes an ensuite bath and private balcony with panoramic ocean views, while the second king suite also features an ensuite bath.
The first level boasts three bedrooms: two king suites—one with direct access to a first-level oceanfront deck that leads to the boardwalk and beach—and a third bedroom with a queen bunk bed. Guests on this floor share a full bath, making it perfect for families or groups traveling together.
With direct beach access, multiple decks with stunning views, coastal charm throughout, and elevator access for effortless convenience, Octopus’s Garden isn’t just a vacation home—it’s your ultimate Carolina Beach adventure. Book your stay today and let the waves, sun, and fun begin!
