About this property
Stunning 2 bedroom beachfront oasis!
The name says it all, "Blue Oceanfront Retreat" is an oasis on the beach! This two bedroom, two bathroom 1st floor condo is beautifully styled as an ocean paradise.
Only one set of stairs takes you up to the entrance of the property. As you enter, you walk into the open concept, living, dining, and kitchen area. The kitchen has updated stainless steel appliances and a beautiful grey subway tile backsplash. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need during your stay! The dining table provides a place for the whole group to gather together to eat a meal. The living room is styled beautifully with blue accents and has a gorgeous view of the ocean through the sliders. The deck off of the living room has outdoor furniture to sit and enjoy the sounds of the ocean. There is also a storage box for your beach items.
Down the hall, you will find the first bathroom with a shower and spacious vanity and then the nautical themed Queen bedroom. The primary bedroom continues this theme and has a King bed. This bedroom also has an ensuite bathroom and access to a small back deck.
Carolina Beach has so many activities to keep the whole family entertained that you will want to keep coming back year after year. This is one of the few places in NC that allows driving on the beach in summertime - you are allowed to drive on the North end beach at Freeman Park, if you have the city pass and a 4WD vehicle. You'll also be close to the pier for great fishing, a cool beverage, and perhaps some storytelling about the one that got away.

Very good location, we spend alot of time on the beach so location is important. It was also a short walk to the boardwalk so we didnt have to drive anywhere. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to make breakfast and dinner. Thank you for the use of your condo, we had an amazing time!

We absolutely loved our time at this location. We cannot wait to go back to Carolina Beach. The condo is a great walking distance to the boardwalk. The ocean view is amazing, I woke up early every morning to drink my tea and watch the sunrise.

We appreciate the feedback about the parking and will look into ways to improve the experience for future guests. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
The entire home was cleaned and smelled welcoming. When we got the keys and parking passes the hotel staff was incredibly nice and gentle. The unit was very nice, overlooking the water. Everything was squeaky clean. The rooms were a good size with streaming services available. My only complaint is that the parking situation is pretty tricky. We had a huge Suburban and struggled to get out of our parking spots. Overall, we really enjoyed this place! Also easy access to aminities.

Perfect for my husband, infant and I to spend a few nights right on the beach. No private beach access, but public beach access is less than a minute away. Short walk to the boardwalk and restaurants. Rental agency was friendly and easy to communicate with.

The location is great with beautiful view. We used bikes every day to go get drinks, dinner as well as food and alcohol shopping. The access to beach is very close. Note: when they say small vehicle for parking this is because the parking is very tight. It has to do with width not height. Recommend you use a smaller sedan not a wider suv. A lager truck will never fit. To wide.

Reviewer Comments:
Blue oceanfront retreat was an excellent condo in a great place. It would have been better if we stayed all six nights. My wife got sick and we returned home after three nights.Would definitely go back in the future. Only downsides, which weren't that bad, did not like Roku tv and to be honest, terrible parking spot.

Michael, We are so sorry that your wife was sick and had to leave early. We are glad you were able to enjoy the property for a few nights and hope you will visit again in the future!
Beds & pillows are terrible, made for a long 3 nights. Be aware parking is awful. Unit provides 2 spaces but unless you have a vehicle the size of a Honda Civic you will NOT be able to maneuver into and out of the tight spots. Otherwise unit is very clean, well equipped, easy beach access and nice view, unfortunately because of parking situation we would never rent again.
I love how close this was to the beach. Place was nice and clean. But I'll tell you this...I read other reviews saying the parking spots were really small and I scoffed, thinking "these people just don't know how to handle their cars," because I'm that kinda guy.
But the parking spots were the most difficult parking spots to get in and out of I've ever experienced. Granted, I was driving a KIA SUV - a smaller SUV, but still a large car.
My tip on the parking is this - as you come into the parking spot, you need to have your drivers-side door about 3 inches from the wooden wall. And then as you make your turn into the spot, provided you have decent turning radius, you can swing into the spot (though you'll only have about 3 inches of space on the back passenger side from the post)... but it can be done.
I would regularly leave the apt about 5 minutes early so I could get the car out of the parking space before my wife and baby got into the car. And there were times we opted not to go out because getting in and out of the parking space was pretty dicey.
The place was great. But if you're arrogant like I was...humble yourself. The parking is possible, but it is difficult.

William, thank you for the review! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! Parking can be a bit of a hassle across the island, so I'm sure future guests will truly appreciate your feedback and your tips! Come back soon!
We loved staying at this property. Pictures are exactly what you get. Condo was very nice, not pristine but clean for the most part. Pretty much had everything you needed. Great view from the balcony, watched the sunrise right in front of you on a clear morning. All TV’s in the condo had Roku and all the key apps available for watching just about anything. That was a nice surprise. Less than 5 minute walk and you’re on the beach. Beach can get windy so make sure any umbrella or shade device can handle it. We had issues with our Costco Tommy Bahama special, lol. Boardwalk/Carnival area is not far, some people walked it but not us, parking is available close by and it was nice to just pay through an app. All in all it was a great stay. My only issue would have been the parking at the condo. We got lucky because all the units(6), were not occupied so this made is easier to get in and out of our spaces. If the parking was full, the parking for our unit would have been a nuisance especially when you have a large vehicle. It’s tight and maneuverability for the inner spaces could be difficult. Not a deal breaker but I feel it’s worth mentioning. All in all everything was great and I would recommend this property.

Rick, So happy you enjoyed your stay! We hope you will visit again!
The beach was not as good because we were on the 1st floor. But we still enjoyed the sound of the ocean. The space was extremely clean. I especially enjoyed the cooking materials. Pots and pans were excellent, nothing stuck to them like some of the cheaper cookware. The parking was a challenge but we got through it. We were driving a ford explorer anything bigger for the area we parked in wouldn’t have worked.Overall we really enjoyed our stay and we would absolutely stay there again!
