Everything was perfect! The home was spotless and had everything we needed. It was a 5 min walk to the beach and less than 10 minutes drive to Publix for groceries. We would definitely stay here again.
What a lovely, fresh place to stay! With only a short walk to the beach and comfy beds, this was the perfect place for a quiet, refreshing stay at Carolina Beach. There were excellent amenities and the check-in/check-out process worked seamlessly. Definitely a place we will stay at again!

Gina, thank you so much for your kind review. We look forward to your next stay. By then we will have enclosed the outdoor shower, added another bicycle or two, a few extra beach chairs, and a wagon for beach transport. Please dont keep us a secret, tell your friends and family! Cheers!!
We had such a great time at Tortuga’s Lie. The house was finished nicely, very clean, and had everything we wanted in a beach house. The owners were very responsive and accommodating to our requests. We wish we could have stayed longer. We look forward to hopefully coming back next year.
This is a beautiful property. Everything’s fresh and clean and makes you super comfy as soon as you walk in. The beds were all amazing and that was a huge bonus for us since the last place we booked had awful beds. The walk to the beach isn’t too bad at all, only thing I would suggest to new renters would be to bring a cart or wagon to pull your stuff with, that would make the trip to and from the beach much more manageable. One thing that was missed was a lower hose outside to wash off sand on the side of the house. The shower head couldn’t reach and/or wash off the chairs and feet etc. Overall, it’s a beautiful place to stay and we felt very relaxed from the moment we got settled in. Oh!! One more thing…we were surprised with birthday cupcakes and a balloon on the table when we got in, we were there to celebrate both of my daughter’s birthdays! That was such a sweet gesture and was very appreciated! Would stay again in this home many times over!

Alisha, thank you so much for the review. We will look into having a beach wagon on hand in the future. Unfortunately the outdoor shower, the bottom spicket is just a drain valve. I will get a shower head with an extended cord, and we have a friend coming soon to enclose the outdoor shower 4' x 6' with a bench and privacy. We look forward to you coming again, and don't keep us a secret!
