Family-friendly holiday rentals in Carolina Beach

The beach house was clean and nicely furnished. We had ample room for seven adults. It could comfortably sleep 9 people since the day bed was large enough for an adult in the alcove area. We were disappointed that the bicycles and the kayaks at the house were locked and we could not use them. But we enjoyed the sound with the beautiful sunsets and the beach was a short walk from the house. All in all a great house and vacation!

Very nice place to stay! Would def stay again. Private and perfectly located in safe neighborhood.

Really great location. Friendly host. Clean and a very relaxing atmosphere, just across from the ocean.

Wonderful stay!! Perfect location for everything!

We had a fantastic stay at this beach house! The place was clean. We especially loved the peaceful mornings on the deck and the sound of the waves at night. We’ll definitely be coming back again!

I had an amazing stay at this beach rental house! The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep after a day of fun in the sun. The house was spotless and well-maintained, which made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The host was exceptionally responsive and made sure we had everything we needed, from check-in to check-out. We appreciated the thoughtful initial items provided, which made settling in so easy. The location couldn't have been better—just a short walk to the beach and close to great restaurants, making it so convenient to enjoy everything the area has to offer. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic beach getaway!

Beautiful ocean front home with plenty of space for our large group. Very quiet community with beach access that felt almost private. Close proximity to restaurants and coffee shops with a short drive to the Carolina Beach area. The host was responsive and helpful prior to check-in and facilitated an early arrival. I think it’s important to note the only free parking is a two-car garage that can hold up to two midsize SUVs. There is not a driveway; therefore, if you have a bigger vehicle, plan to park on the street and pay daily parking fees. We will definitely plan another visit in this property.

Thank you for letting us stay in your home while working out of town. Very satisfied with home and would recommend it to anyone! Thank you again.

perfect location and great host! place is small, but fine for my length of stay. Suite was clean and had everything we needed.

I feel fortunate every time I get to enjoy Timothy's Beach Adjacent home when I visit Wilmington. It's always well supplied, very comfortable, peaceful and thoughtfully designed! Cheers to Timothy: another very enjoyable stay and another job well done!

This is best stay I’ve had at an Airbnb. Comfortable, quiet, safe for traveling alone, and hosts were just the best. Goldie the cat , who would’ve stayed out my way had I not enticed him with scritches and a few treats, was an added bonus for me. I booked a second consecutive week!

Was just the peaceful getaway that we all needed. I came down with my daughters and was my grand daughters first beach trip and we were not disappointed, highly recommend

We loved our week at Blue Turtle Cottage! It’s bright, clean and charming. Just a short walk to the beach. Leslie and Kay were lovely hosts. We’d definitely come back if our plans bring us to OKI. The king bed is super comfy!. Thanks for hosting us! 💙🐢

Sarah was a very attentive host! She gave us great local recommendations and was always responsive. They even replaced the record player so my teens could listen to them. Would highly recommend staying here!

This was our 2nd family vacation on Carolina Beach. Our family rented 2 places close to each other. This rental was very clean and nicely decorated. It was comfortable for 7 adults and 2 dogs. We hosted dinners for 20 easily. The elevator was nice for loading/unloading the cars. Had 1 issue with the front door lock, which Connie & Joe fixed the next day.

The sailboat was a wonderful place to spend our days. We could walk to the beach (maybe 8 minutes?) for sunrise, or enjoy it at the marina. Sunset was the other side of the boat, right over the Intercoastal. The marina is well protected with rocks- so there was very little swaying /rocking. We brought food for breakfasts and lunches, and enjoyed that on deck, and mostly ate out for dinner. There is some great local seafood/vegetarian options too. The aft (back of boat) bed is the roomier of the two and was VERY comfortable

This condo was perfect for a quick little get away for the family! There was plenty of room and having a pool and being beach front was perfect with the little one. Being downtown helped as well as it was easy to walk to restaurants and shops. Tori was very responsive and helped us as best as possible when we needed to reach out to her. We will definitely be looking to stay here again if we are able!

This was the second time that we stayed at this condo. Both times, we had a really great experience with the host and the cleaning company. The condo is perfect! Had everything we needed and in a great location. Jeff is an amazing host. Very proactive and tells you everything you need to know up front. We will rent from Jeff over and over!

David and Kris were terrific hosts! They went out of their way to keep us informed of fun events happening around the island, which we greatly appreciated as it was our first time to BHI. The unit is just as pictured and beautifully renovated. Kitchen is expertly organized and has full array of cookware. The location is central on the island, making it a quick ride to the market, beach, club, etc. The surrounding live oaks and foliage are beautiful. I would definitely recommend! We will be back.

This place is relaxing and peaceful. It is so convenient to everything. Other people staying in the Cabana are polite, friendly, nice and quiet. MK is very responsive to answering questions. This is my fourth year staying here and i will continue to go every year.

5 Star stay for long weekend. Pictures display a truly classy comfy townhouse that smells lovely and has everything you need. Bedrooms are spacious and linens are very comfortable. Perfect home with perfect location to beaches, restaurants, and shopping. Easy and clear instructions for check in and check out. Thank you John and Katie for our enjoyable experience. Looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend.

This is the best place to stay! Your view of the ocean is unhindered with a large private balcony on the third floor overlooking the pool and ocean. Perfect access to the beach. Walkable to restaurants and the boardwalk. We had an amazing time!

For being a last minute trip to Wrightsville beach, Matthew made it easy with his excellent communication and instructions. The place is centrally located, an easy walk to coffee, restaurants and bars. The views of the beach/ocean are perfect and the condo was very clean. If you are looking for a place to stay in Wrightsville I'd recommed staying at Matthew's place.

I cannot say enough positive words about this property. The best I have ever stayed in. Everything you could possibly want or need was available in the condo. All appliances were top of the line with extras as in blender, air fryer, everything. It was very well decorated with high end decor. Beautiful view, easy access to beach. Just a hop across street to a lovely beach. The balcony was comfortable and great for morning coffee and evening beverages and dinner. The parking was easy, we always had a covered spot for car. The pool was so nice and just a few steps away. The host was available for any information we wanted to ask as in restaurants, entertainment, etc. We will definitely be back.
