About the host
Hosted by Michael & Michele
My husband and I love the Beach. This is our getaway beach front home that provides the relaxation and comfort -that get's us away from it all! Every year we upgrade the condo making it better and better each year. We listen to the many guests that have stayed here year after year and upgrade to their expectations. Like most of our guests, we spend most of the time on the "huge deck" - very unique in Carolina Beach. Their we can see the dolphins (if we are fortunate), enjoy our morning coffee/bfast and wine/dinner in the evenings. Also, unique is that we have a 2nd deck off the guest room that is directly over the full size pool area. Great if you have children/grand children as you can watch them from the condo. We hope you enjoy the condo as much as we do and our many returning guests each year!
Why they chose this property
This condo has it all! Beach Front, Huge Deck (very few have a deck this size) - Almost another living area in size! Full size Pool. Most condos only have "small wading pools". The sunrise views are truly amazing. Large Beautiful Beach with lifeguard stand on beach just outside our building (added safety).
What makes this property unique

1) Over-sized Huge Ocean Front Deck (Covered so you can go out even if it rains) 2) 2nd Deck over the Pool Area 3)Full sized Pool.
