Fabulous place in the sun
Our visit was a family wedding and reunion of folks from all over the country. The duplex was extraordinary. This is the best equipped rental property we've ever stayed at, and we do a lot of family group vacations. This one should be featured in the VRBO ads--it was great. It is a duplex and part of our stay another family shared the pool, but the residence is nicely divided for privacy and we found no difficulty sharing. Parking was adequate for 4 vehicles (and pulling in tight could even squeeze a 5th in a pinch if the vehicles are small). We loved the pineapple theme--it felt very tropical and was a nice twist on the usual seagull/ocean waves motif we find in so many beach houses. The place was as clean as we've ever encountered and the blackout curtains were good for those who wanted to sleep in. We hope to have a return visit soon!

About the host

Hosted by Glenn and Melinda Miller

Host profile image
Glenn and Melinda live in Chesterfield, Virginia. Avid beach lovers, this purchase has been a life-long dream. With three children in their twenties and their first grandchild on the way, they wanted a place for their growing family to come back together and enjoy each other. This purchase began their foray into beach property management through their company Our Places in the Sun, Inc. Their wish is to provide a relaxing and refreshing family vacation experience for other family-oriented renters who value spending time with family and friends through this and other properties on Pleasure Island.

Why they chose this property

Carolina Beach is a great family friendly beach suitable for small children with its extended shallow wave break zone. It is also attractive to surfers due to moderate swells that occur a bit further out. With close proximity to Wilmington, upscale shopping, dining, and historic tours are only 20 minutes away. Locally, Carolina Beach offers Freeman Park where you can drive your 4-wheel drive vehicle onto the beach. Masonboro Island is close by for shell seekers. Fort Fisher is only 10 minutes away - where you can go to the NC Aquarium and the historic battlegrounds. The North Pier is within walking distance of the property. The Boardwalk and Britt's donuts are located approximately 1 mile from this home. Carolina Beach has unique shops, great restaurants, and local scuba diving, jet ski rentals, surfing lessons and fishing tours.

What makes this property unique

Water views are available from almost every window since the front of the home is oceanfront and the back has waterway views which are great for boat watching. 'Our Place in the Sun' is located close to the inlet making dolphin pods swimming close to shore a frequent occurrence. Close proximity to the North Pier and Freeman Park make it an ideal location for those who like to fish, crab, or rake for clams. A private walkway to the beach with an outside hot/cold shower make going back and forth to the beach a breeze.
