The Palm is the broad main floor of a marvelous old Victorian home that was duplexed long ago and has evolved throughout the years. You’ll have private access to the first floor with your own entrance. We adore this place for its high ceilings, vintage decor, original wood floors, and peaceful red brick road neighborhood! With queen-size comfortable beds, a cozy living room with a intelligent TV, and an eat-in kitchen area with all the essentials, you may want to stay longer!

If you're looking for new and ideal, this is not it—it’s a cool old home in a unique location. The Palm is an early 1900s Victorian home in a cozy, historic neighborhood, just a pleasant walk from eateries, bars, breweries, entertainment, museums, historic walking tours, and the riverfront. Parking is complimentary, simple, and ample on the street in front of the home.

Note: The neighbor upstairs has two dogs, and you may occasionally hear them walking around at nighttime or early in the morning. If you're a light sleeper, please keep this in mind.

Guests will have access to the entire lower-level floor and a private entrance. We are here if you need us, invisible if you don’t. Check-in anytime with the keypad lock and start calming! We’ll likely check in with you via text to ensure everything’s great. If we don’t hear from you, we’ll assume you’re happy!

Located on a quaint brick road, The Palm is within walking distance to downtown and the river walk. This is a very old home—please treat it with respect. If historic appeal and unique turn-of-the-century eccentricities aren't your thing, you may want to consider more modern accommodations.

Tips and Tricks to get the best rental home experience:

• In the Carolina Beach area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.

Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
