Disliked: Cleanliness
Views were great! Place is a bit out dated and you have to walk 2ish blocks for beach access. The place could have been a little cleaner, especially the fan in the master bedroom. The shower head in the master had less water pressure than the sink (water was very stinky and I saw that someone else already made a comment about that! It was not that big of an issue!). The master bedroom could use a new mattress because you do kind of roll to the middle of the bed because the mattress is well loved! Great place for a few days but if you are a clean freak like me, I would suggest a newer place or possibly a hotel.

Our small family stayed for 6 nights during Spring break with kids and small dogs. Everything was as described. The Condo was spacious, neat, orderly and clean. With great views and easy access to the beach. Was a quiet area yet very convenient and close to the fun. Would absolutely stay again or recommend. 5 Stars!

Unbeatable view

I stayed here for a quiet winter getaway with my dog. The view from the condo is stunning - sunrise and sunset are gorgeous. The condo is cozy, quiet and private and looks exactly like the photos. I made some meals in-unit by choice but even in winter, there are good restaurant options within a mile, including the pier nearby. As others have noted, the immediate beach entry is closed due to beach erosion but the open entrance was only .1 mile down the road - an easy walk. Barbara, the property manager, is friendly and very responsive.

Memorial Day Stay

We were pleasantly surprised how spacious the condo really was. You cannot beat the location for a peaceful beach stay. I loved that my kids could go to the beach and I could watch from the balcony. That made them feel like they had a bit of freedom without me having to worry. It is very dog friendly in this area of CB. Fishing is hot on the surf as well. The appliances, bathrooms, and TVs are a bit outdated and the icemaker didn't work, but as long as you know ahead and bring ice or fill up the ice trays, then it is no big deal. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen had all the supplies you need to make full meals. The only real complaint that I have is I wish I could have stayed longer!

The interior was very nice with a large kitchen, washer/dryer and plenty of room. The owner (Barbara) was extremely responsive to our questions and made us feel like family!! There is NO DOUBT that we will be staying with Barbara on our next trip to Carolina Beach--THANKS BARBARA!!!

Great location

We stayed at the Pink Sunskipper last week and had a blast. The condo was in great condition and had easy access to the beach. We played cards and games every night out on the deck watching and listening to the waves crash. It was truly a great vacation. Highly recommend this spot. Working with Barbara was very easy and she made the whole process as convenient as possible.

Great vacation

We got there on Sunday 15th, the night cyclone eight came thru. It rained and flooded on Monday. It was 1,000 year flood. We made the best of it and still had the best trip. It was my first vacation in 10 years. The place we stayed at the Pink Sunskipper was very cozy. Barbara the owner checked in on us everyday to make sure we was ok and if we needed anything. I would definitely stay there again!

We were able to stay in this beach front condo last year. It’s in a great location. The beach and ocean are right there! Such a much needed break from hectic school and work life. The property is in a quiet area. My daughter and I watched the sun rise each morning. The sunrises are stunning. Thank you again, Barbara, for the use of your condo. We hope to visit next year too

Best oceanview

This place is right at the ocean if you are looking for great view of sunrise. But more than the property, I wanted to recognize Barbara's commitment to do everything possible to make our stay enjoyable. We had some issues with the heat and internet that were eventually resolved but Barbara followed through until they were fixed, and that too was on the thanksgiving weekend. I will definitely visit the property again.

Nice view, like you are right on top of the water. Although it is on the first floor, for those with bad knees, there are stairs to climb. Beach is right there. Loved bringing my dog. The floor is thin so you could hear every step the upstairs made. The owner was quick to respond.

About the host

Hosted by Barbara Handler

Host profile image
Born and raised in New Jersey I have loved living in North Carolina and vacationing on the North Carolina coast since 2001. A dream come true to be in such a beautiful part of the country and share the beauty of our Coast with vacationers from all over.

Why they chose this property

CHECK OUT ALL THE PHOTOS! In The Pink Sunskipper, one of the largest 2 bd/2bth layouts, you can't get any closer to being right on the beach with just a few paces from this vacation home. It's surreal sitting on the beach deck or in the living room and watching all the magnificent beauty of the ocean and surroundings. It is certainly a million dollar view and renourishment for the soul. Besides the location, the area of Carolina Beach and all it has to offer the traveler who wants to be laid back or on the go, is in abundance when staying at The Pink Sunskipper.

What makes this property unique

Right at the beach, Step out the door and you are there, can't get any closer for the views, smells, sounds of the ocean, sunrise, dolphins jumping, fishing boats in the morning for their catch of the day, stimulate all of your senses within this ocean retreat of peace and relaxation. And you can bring your four legged best friend fur baby that is 50 pounds or under, well behaved, well housebroken :)
