Disappointed with Roaches/Cleanliness

The property has some issues ranging from exposed electrical outlets and spotty cleanliness. Crumbs in the utensil drawer were surprising. The cleanliness issue also led to a roach infestation which rendered the deck unusable in the evening as we were literally attacked by a colony of roaches. The property manager was responsive and tried to remedy the situation. We appreciated the effort however it wasn’t the experience we’d hoped for.

Great Location in Carolina Beach

The location of this property absolutely cannot be beaten. Direct beach access right next to the building and walkable to restaurants and the boardwalk. Overall the interior was nice. The kitchen was well stocked, there was plenty of seating and the beds were comfortable. The beds are beautiful but have a wooden frame that makes getting in/out a bit difficult. Something to be aware of if you have mobility issues. We weren't impressed with the cleanliness of the bathrooms, which had mold along the floor and water-stained glass. The ends of the ledge on the patio had rotting wood that had been covered with cardboard and duct tape. We had a plumbing issue in the kitchen that caused dirty, smelly water to back up all over the kitchen floor and into the dishwasher. There was only a small mop and the white bath towels, so we had to use our own beach towels to clean up the mess. The sink was also clogged and unusable. The property manager sent someone out within a couple of hours and he fixed the leak under the sink, but he didn't fix the clog. We reached out again and he couldn't come back until the next day. We didn't want to be without a kitchen, so we chose to purchase Draino and fix the issue ourselves. We received no apology from the management company or offer to reimburse us for the time and money we spent to resolve a simple issue that should've been fixed on the first visit. Because of how this issue was handled, I likely wouldn't stay at the property again.

Very good for family

My wife and I stayed here with our 3 kids ages 7 and under over the Labor Day weekend in Sep 2023. We enjoyed our stay overall. The property is well laid out with great views of the ocean from inside the unit and the patio. The beds were super comfortable. The bathrooms had high quality showers and kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances. It's close to the boardwalk and you can see the fireworks in the boardwalk from the patio! The beds and pillows were the best I have slept on in any hotel or rental property! The storage shelf was stocked with toys and beach chairs. We're not giving 5 stars because there were a few maintenance issues, like the sliding door to the patio not locking, the table in the patio rotting making it unsafe for kids, and lots of dust & lint on the master bedroom headboard. The maintenance staff came and provided workarounds (like a stick to block the patio door from opening at night and duck tape over rotten wood), but I expect owners to keep it well-maintained at all times to give 5 stars.

Excellent Stay!

The condo is very clean and modern! The beds were the most comfortable I’ve ever slept on outside of my own. My sleep was great! They had everything thing I needed for my stay. Short walk to the beach and sa few blocks to the boardwalk. We will stay there again!

Serenity at Carolina Beach

Adorable condo that is as nice as it appears in photos. Comfortably fit four adults and two children. Great location and patio with enough chairs to enjoy the ocean view. Since we flew into Wilmington it would have been nice to have beach towels included. My experience in other beach rentals have included beach towels.

Amazing condo!

Serenity was an absolute amazing condo with a fantastic view of the beach!!!! It was in the perfect location. It was about a 15 minute walk to the boardwalk and sooo many restaurants to choose from. It was far enough away that you couldn’t hear any noise. Very peaceful. Enjoyed waking up and seeing the ocean view from the master suite!!!! We will for sure be coming back!!! Thank you for everything!

Amazing family trip to Carolina Beach

This condo was perfect for our family trip to Carolina Beach! We absolutely loved the beds and living room furniture. The showers had great water pressure from a rainfall shower head or handheld shower wand. The condo was equipped with the right about of products for our weekend. We were lacking 2 towels but we texted and more towels were brought immediately to us. Condo was very comfy and on the perfect floor to view the beautiful ocean.

Great house and location

We couldn't be happier with our stay, i have no bad things to say about this house. The assigned parking really did it for me as well, while most other condos here do not have this system of parking. We have been visiting Carolina Beach for 5 years now, and this year was one of the most enjoyable experiences thanks to the Serenity beach house
