At the far south end of the island is the Fort Fisher state park with large uncrowded beaches, the aquarium, and the ferry to Southport.
This beautiful home is centrally located. The Tiki bar and Granny's Country Kitchen are short walks. The town area of Carolina Beach is just over a mile to the north, and Kure Beach is about a mile to the south.

Great location! Communication with owner was fabulous! Plenty of room for everyone and no sound issues with the other renters. The extra beach chairs were a huge help also. House was clean but could use a deep clean under the couches and other areas. Would definitely star again!
It was a great stay. There were 13 of us and had plenty of room. The beach being right across the street was a huge plus! If you are craving ice cream there’s a spot about 1/2 mile walk.
We have stayed a weekend with a couple of friends and the place was awesome. You could walk to the beach in 5 mins and there were restaurants in the walking distance. The owner David was so nice and even gave us a 2hr late checkout when asked. I wouldn't hesitate to book the same place again!
Great house with lots of bed space and right across from the beach. Would love to come back and stay longer!

Great location, close to everything.
Property was great! Check in was super easy.
But, the ocean view is covered now that two new houses have been built, so you can kind of see it.
But other than that it’s a nice house, close walk to the beach.
This property has potential unmet. It’s in a great place and can house several people at once, BUT… I have NEVER stayed at a vacation rental that had one towel per person for the entire stay. Our toilet overflowed so you can imagine how bad that was with limited towels. Zero towels and paper towels in the kitchen. Doing the dishes was challenging. The thermostat was glued so that it could not be adjusted. Upper floor was extremely warm while the bottom floor was a meat locker. The freezer didn’t freeze completely. Pretty much all the adults staying here were disappointed.

I'm sorry the house failed ot meet all your expectations. The thermostats are adjustable, you simply have to hold the up/down arrows for a second until it blinks then then push once per degree of change. I have blocked the ability to turn the HVAC fan away from the auto setting, as running the central fan 24 hours a day clogs the filters rapidly.
We do provide one towel and washcloth per guest, and hand towels in the bathrooms. I've never had any complaints about this. I have added a kitchen towel for 2024.
I'm not sure if you missed it in instructions, but there's a reaupply closet on the 3rd floor with extra paper towels and toilet paper, and also an iron, hair dryers, spare coffee maker, etc.
The house is exactly as described in the listing - across the street from the beach, bedrooms/baths/kitchen all as described. Not quite as clear is that it is two units, and the other half is also rented out. This was not a problem for us, as the other group was very respectful and "good neighbors." Max of 4 cars for our side, although they used a floating number between 4-6 on their side.
The bad: no soap in showers, which was not clear (or maybe I just missed it). I've done dozens and dozens of VRBOs, and that was a first for us. Much, much worse: the water - out of every faucet, sink, shower, toilet - smelled of rotten eggs. It was bad enough that we would not use the water to make coffee, and most of us skipped showering altogether.
Would we stay there again? Only if the water issue is corrected. If so, likely we would. It is convenient to Wilmington, easy beach access, etc. Plenty of space for our large family. But unless the water is addressed, we would not stay there again.
House was great, proximity to the ocean was great. The only issue was hot water came out brown and smelled like sewer. We ran it for a bit thinking it was stale in the water heater and that resolved it.

Thanks for the stay and the review - You're spot on the water everywhere here contains some sulfur and when not used constantly can produce the smell briefly. I'm glad you ran it and it cleared up for you.
This house was well furnished with comfortable beds and equipped with basic supplies which was super convenient. The short walk across the road to the beach was perfect and you could sit on the porch and watch the waves from the house. We really enjoyed our vacation here!
My initial process was extremely simple. For the price I paid for this property the house wasn’t very clean when we arrived. The coffee maker still had old grounds and filter in it and the pot wasn’t clean. After I cleaned everything the coffee was never hot, luck warm at best. Again for the price of this property, spending $50 for a small Kerrigan is recommended. I get it, the price is for location but someone needs to put some money back into this property for it to be nice. My thoughts. I will not stay here again.

1 towel per person. Seriously??
Notes from owner through VRBO and on property were rude and condescending. Some of the glasses were filthy. This is what happens when you leave it to your guests to wash and put away their dishes. Top floor guest bathroom
Shower drains really slowly. The whole experience just didn’t feel very welcoming.
It was a very nice location and property. Easy to access beach and the boardwalk. Property was clean and had all the amenities you need. Fit 12 of us no problem. Definitely recommend!
We had a stay here with of 6 women celebrating our 50 years on earth and it was fabulous. The house had plenty of room and was well equipped for our stay. It is a very nice place.

About the host
Hosted by David Kapella
Why they chose this property
I owned a house in this area in 2010 and had been searching for another from the moment I sold it. I really liked the hardwoods in the common areas, granite and stainless kitchen, and of course the views that this house provides.
What makes this property unique
The views are good for being across the street from the ocean - the next best thing to being ocean front! And the bunk bed is full over full, so it accommodates 4 small kids or 2 adults comfortably. TVs in every bedroom allow the kids to play games or watch streaming content, or adults to watch what they want when they want.
