Location was excellent as the public ramp to the beach was right across the street. Everything to do in CB at night is also very close and easily walkable. The only consideration I would say is if you do not enjoy live bar music until about midnight to 1 am, you might not like the location. Those things do not bother me and you get a free concert from the comfort of the front porch, but if you do not like that it may be annoying. Overall, it was an enjoyable stay and I recommend this space to anyone thinking about it keeping in mind my one caveat.

Place was close to the beach and easy to get to, but so loud. Should have checked the map before booking as there was a bar with live music across the parking lot which was going lat into the light. Should have realized it was going to be loud when there were ear plugs left in the bathroom! If you are good with lots of noise then this is the place for you.

This rental was wonderful. It had a total of 4 beds in 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. It was literally right across from the beach and right next to the Carolina Beach boardwalk. I stayed here with my family the night before getting married and it was perfect. The host answered all my calls when I had questions and even had some snacks ready for us when we arrived. Really a great experience.

We're so happy we could be supportive and available for all your questions, and we love that those welcome snacks were there for you! Congratulations on your marriage!

Perfect location

This is the perfect location. Right across the street from the beach and public beach access. Within walking distance of the boardwalk and resteraunts. Right next door to a taco place and a bar. Very dog friendly. Only caution I have is that on the weekends the bar can get noisy. It did not bother us at all and the host has white noise machines in all bedrooms and ear plugs in the bathroom.

Comfortable stay

We loved sitting on the deck. What a breezy, peaceful porch. We loved the Mexican restaurant next door where we got take out to eat at the house (see pic). Well stocked kitchen and loved the colorful dishes were served the taco night. Our party could sleep through the music at the bar nearby except me. :-( It appears that there is a music ordinance where they must power off by midnight… I wish they could at least mandate that the music be turned down significantly at 11:00. I decided to switch my bedtime to a little later. Music at bar only weekends though. That’s a plus.

Nice Unit but Noisy Location

This unit is very nice and well equipped. What they don't tell you is how noisy this location is. There are loud cars, trucks, and motorized bikes going up and down the street day and night. The bar about a 1/2 block away has very loud outdoor music on Friday and Saturday night until midnight that can be heard clearly inside the unit. The hosts know about this because the bedrooms have white noise machines and there was a container of soft ear plugs available. It was not possible to sit on the porch with coffee in the morning or with an adult beverage in the evening without have to frequently yell over the traffic noise. Too bad because beach access is excellent and the unit itself is very nice.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Our family booked this property expecting a relaxing four-night beach vacation, but we left after the first night because the conditions were so disappointing.The biggest issue was the nonstop loud heavy metal music from neighboring properties that continued late into the night. We got very little sleep and knew we couldn't endure three more nights of it.The home was NOT as represented. The listing did not disclose that the main living area relied on noisy window AC units. They were extremely loud, and one blew directly onto the sofa. The washer and dryer are sitting IN the living room.We found visible mold in the bathrooms and around the window AC units, which raised serious cleanliness and maintenance concerns. On top of that, the kitchen was poorly equipped and lacked many of the basic items needed to prepare meals.Another disappointment was the beach itself. During our stay, it was so crowded that it was difficult to find space to relax. While the host can't control the number of beachgoers, prospective renters should know that this area can become extremely congested.We paid for a four-night stay but left after only ONE night because the property did not deliver the advertised experience. The host offered only a 400 refund and ultimately refused to provide any additional reimbursement.This was a very big disappointment. I highly recommend you look elsewhere if you want a relaxing summer vacation. This property is old, crowded, and very loud.
