Located adjacent to Freeman Park and north of the Carolina Beach boardwalk area, you'll have everything you need for a fun vacation. Our condo is located in an independent 6 unit structure that has parking for three cars, including a one car garage. Private beach access keeps our area a bit more secluded and quieter than other places. The condo is on the raised first floor, which makes the loading up part of your vacation less grueling and time consuming without sacrificing the impressive ocean view from the enormous covered porch with plenty of seating.

In 2024, we refreshed the master bathroom! The new bathroom includes a bespoke tiled shower, new handsome floor, new vanity, backlit mirror, and shining light. Check out the new photos.

In 2022, we updated the patio furnishings, living room furnishings, and upgraded three appliances in the kitchen. Be sure to check out the photos. You'll find open living space with a full kitchen ready for cooking light or big meals, dining space, and living room. The unit has 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms with one bath off the master bedroom. Both baths have shower stalls. The hall bath was completely remodeled in 2020 with an upsized, bespoke tile shower. All beds have been replaced over the past three years. Everything your family, a group of friends, or three couples need for a great get away at the beach.

Outside, you'll find an upsized covered deck for outside enjoyment without having to head down to the beach. Our deck has a patio table and four chairs for dining on one side. On the other side, there's a patio loveseat, table, and four lounge chairs for your relaxation and conversation. There's even festive lights to savor the deck any time of day or evening.

A linen package is supplied in all units from our cleaning service. All bed sheets and bath and kitchen towels will be delivered and set up before your stay. No making up beds when you get here! Beach towels are available to use, but must be washed and dried before leaving, or you can bring your own.

Our story- Soon after purchasing this unit in 2016, we began updating the interior. In 2020, we completely updated the hall bathroom adding an upsized bespoke tile shower, installed a new secure storm door, and replaced the queen bed and bed in two bedrooms with new hybrid spring-foam bed. In 2022, we replaced nearly all the outdoor furnishings on the deck, living room furnishings, and kitchen appliances. In 2024, we modernized the master bathroom completely adding a little bling and luxury to the space. We use the off season to continually update our place. You are renting directly from us, the owners.

During the summer season, we accept requests that are at least 7 nights. We will accept check-in and out on any day of the week.

How to get the best Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in Carolina Beach. To book the largest rental within your budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to select the best rental in Carolina Beach:

• Choose your vacation week and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Beach Front w\/ Private Access and Great Ocean Views! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is normally available online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before you book the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Know before you go:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
