Thank you for staying with us! We're so glad you and your wife enjoyed the ocean view and found the home super clean. We hope to welcome you back for another relaxing getaway soon!
Charming condo on the beach, just behind the dunes. I sat on the deck at sunrise and watched dolphins and pelicans feed. Also a spectacular lightning storm at sea. The host is very responsive and check-in is easy. The loft sleeping area includes an en suite bath, making the unit very comfortable and private for me and my son and daughter-in-law. The kitchen is well-supplied, including a couple of days of K cups for the Keurig coffee maker. I hope to stay here again.
The views from this place were excellent. We loved the short walk to the beach. We also enjoyed how everything worked; we had all the conveniences we needed. Nicely decorated
The unit is lovely, quiet and well-appointed with everything you need for a comfortable vacation (even good books!).
And the setting, right on the Atlantic Ocean, is incredibly beautiful and peaceful.
My family stayed here for our first family vacation and loved every moment! Everything looked very clean, the neighbors were quiet, and the view of the ocean from the balcony was perfect!

We enjoyed our stay very much, looking forward to returning!
Wonderful location. Loved listening to the waves. Though it is listed as first floor, there are stairs required to get to the first floor. Overall a wonderful vacation. Would definitely stay again.
We’ve been coming here for years. Gorgeous beach, quiet and never crowded. Super convenient to Carolina Beach, Southport and Wilmington. The condo feels like home and worries melt away as you cross the threshold. We will return again and again.

Excellent stay by the beach. The condo was well maintained, very clean and overall a great place to stay for our family of four.
This trip was on where me and my wife Linda just said let's get away for a long weekend. Could not have been more pleased with our unit. Would love to revisit soon.
