Good stay - Great location
Unit worked well. A few things could make it even better. Bed is creeky. Shower doesn’t have enough pressure. Kitchen could be better stocked. Better outside chairs.

Great Location but Sparse Accommodations
100% the location of this condo is fantastic - directly across the street from the lake with an unobstructed view and a very short walk to the beach access. Note the beach access has lots of stairs (and this is a 2nd floor condo) - so FYI for beach wagons, etc. I appreciated the blackout curtains throughout - especially during the summer, I know that would be helpful. Despite the great location, the accommodations were a bit lacking - we had a family of 4 and were provided exactly 4 bath towels...no extras to be found. The kitchen is not "ample" or well stocked in terms of cookware- as the listing states. We were there during the winter and there is not an extra blanket in the entire condo - and the heat was not even distributed so the master bedroom was very chilly. The hot water had a very strong sulfur smell, but this did get better by the second day. Finally, the couch is very small and worn down - uncomfortable and poor quality, and the TV (as stated in the listing) is only streaming - but fighting with the TV is the last thing we want to deal with when vacationing with kids. This unit was fine for a last minute 2-night getaway, and would be great for folks just needed a place to sleep, but not somewhere I would want to stay for much longer than that.

Outstanding Apartment Right on the Beach
This property is in a great location right on the beach and next to Lake Carolina Beach. The location a 2 minute walk from the beach with provided showers, walking distance to the CB boardwalk, make this awesome for a family weekend or week. Check in and check out we’re easy with the provided key access code. All items advertised for use in the apartment were stocked (TP, initial trashbags, dishsoap) and even some that weren’t (stock of common condiments, laundry tabs, coffee grounds/filters). Will 100% look for this property in the future when traveling to the area.

Unfortunately, we didn’t get much rest between the apartment upstairs and the one Next-door. They were apparently all drunk and arguing until 2:30am the police had to be called it got that bad… the police came and left afterwards they calmed down and we were able to get some sleep. The cleanliness was not up to par, the front door was dirty as though it was never wiped down, the antibacterial hand soaps in the bottles were all watered down, the microwave face was missing and the blue couch was dingy and dirty. Not a fan of the location of the spare shower at all, so I didn’t use it…unfortunately I would not go back after that experience. The location was great very short walk to the beach, parking was good. Balcony was nice.

This was our first time to Carolina Beach. We have routinely been Gulf Coast Beach goers. The location of the condo to the beach access was awesome. Loved that everything was within walking distance. We will definitely be back again.

Too many inconveniences.
The property was spacious and cozy. The place could've used an upgrade. The refrigerator door was broken, had to lift the door up to secure it close. The washing machine broke the first time we used it after being there 3 days. The microwave above the oven had miising parts and tape. Water pressure in master bedroom shower wasnt good at all. It just trickled down. The AC broke at 10pm on the 4 day we were there. BRIAN was quick to answer my call that late and made arrangements to stay at another prooerty for the night til the AC worked. BRIAN was good about bringing towels and other items needed quick because rhe place was set for 3 people and we were a group of 6. Due to the many inconveniences we still enjoyes our stay and the beach

It was a great place to hang with the family. Easy access to the beach. Walking distance to everything fun, eating, and hang out. The beach house was stocked with everything needed to be clean and cook with. Note: just make sure to bring your own soap and shampoo. We absolutely loved the place. We would totally go there again for a family vacation.

Well maintained, nicely equipped, very good location. Needs much better interior lighting in all areas but the kitchen. Hallway shower is very slippery and has no grab bar. TV remote is incomprehensible and there are no directions to help.

Amazing location
Super close to the beach, right across from a lake that had some super cool pop up vendors. You could hear EVERYTHING the neighbors said and did, but there were kids both above and below us so I'm sure that didn't help. The spot overall was cute, had everything we needed to enjoy our weekend. Would 100% book again.

Quick getaway
We had a quick getaway to Carolina Beach and stayed at this adorable condo. The convenience to the beach and downtown Carolina Beach was perfect. We were able to walk to several different restaurants and the boardwalk with ease. The check in process was disorganized, as we didn’t have any instructions until I reached out to the company an hour before we could check in. I had emailed and received a response that I was supposed to fill something out and a week before the check in we would receive the necessary info. We booked within a week of our trip so this never happened. The company did reach out to me via text message after I left a voicemail, with the necessary info to check in. My only other issue with this place was the master bedroom was MUCH warmer than the rest of the house. To combat this we made sure to leave both the bedroom and bathroom door to help the airflow. Between that, the fan and cranking down the AC quite a bit, we were able to sleep with just a sheet and be fairly comfortable. The other room and remainder of the house was much more comfortable. The place was adorable and clean.

A mess!
The place was nice but it stated it was a 3 bdrm and it’s actually a 2bdrm was the first problem. Then the washer and dryer didn’t work. We couldn’t find the tv remote and toilet was clogged so we had to wait until Monday for the toilet to get fixed and the next day for a remote. The manager never called me back to discuss why it says it’s a 3 bdrm and on Vrbo because I would have booked something cheaper had I known it was a 2bdrm.

Condo failure
The only saving grace for this condo was it was close to the beach! I’m extremely disappointed in VRBO in allowing this condo on your website. The condo needs a total makeover. There was old food in the couch when we needed to use it for the bed. The kitchen was so poorly stocked with utensils I had to buy items from the grocery. One positive note, the maintenance people were quick to respond to our needs. The TV in the bedroom worked less then half the time. The bathtub had patches on the wall. Definitely not a 5 star rating as advertised. Carolina beach was a nice place just not impressed at all with the condo. Will not recommend this place to anyone!!!
