Maggie’s Oasis
This place was absolutely beautiful! It was able to accommodate all my family from out of state. The hose (Sean) was AMAZING and very accommodating! If you are wanting a secluded oasis, this is your place. I will absolutely book the place again!

Brand New w/ Pickleball Court & Heated Pool
We had an amazing stay! The home was new, clean and beautiful! There was plenty of room, especially with the decks! It met our needs perfectly! We loved all of the activities in the fun yard! It was the best one in the area! We also enjoyed how close we were to the beach! Drew responded quickly to my questions before our stay, which I really appreciated. He was very kind and helpful. We would definitely stay here again, if we vacation in Oak Island in the future.

Mermaid Retreat* Private Pool* Pet Friendly
Darlene was a fantastic host! She communicated quickly when I had any questions. Her house was probably one of the best stocked AirBnBs that we've stayed at. The pool was so private, I knew we had neighbors, but could not see them. The house was perfect for our family! We loved Carolina Beach!

Carolina's Perfection: Private Pool And Hot Tub
Ramith’s house was beautiful! Had a great view of the ocean, and was short distance to the beach. It was clean and spacious for our work retreat. Would recommend 100% hope to be back soon!!

Home with Salt water pool and bamboo garden view
My stay was absolutely amazing! The host was incredibly sweet, kind, and welcoming she made sure everything was perfect from the moment I arrived. The space was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. You can tell she really cares about her guests and puts a lot of love into her hosting. I felt comfortable and safe the entire time. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend her place to anyone looking for a peaceful and pleasant experience! Thank you Frances ❤️

Making Waves-Scenic Getaway- Heated Pool & Hot Tub
This is our second visit in this beautiful house. Everything you need for small kids and the island is one of our favorite places! Great hosts! Great house! We will be back.

River Road Retreat - Heated Private Pool, Pond, Fi
it was the perfect setting for our family vacation with our adult children and their significant others. In fact, it was the perfect back drop on the dock for my son to propose to his girlfriend! wonderful memories here! peaceful and beautiful setting and short drive to the beach.

Oceanfront 3 bedroom home; private beach access
We had the most amazing stay. Beautiful house on a private beach. Time we stayed there weren’t a lot of people at all. So peaceful! Straight walk onto the private beach. Probably one of the cleanest homes we’ve ever seen or rented by far. Our pup had a blast too. We were sad to leave and wished to have stayed longer than a week. Great please great stay. April was quick to respond to all my questions. Hope to stay here again!

Couple of Pisces - On the Ocean
Such a fantastic place, right on the beach! They have everything you need, including wake boards, chairs, umbrella. Just a beautiful place on the ocean!!! My second time back, and I'll go a third!!

Oceanfront | Updated + Gorgeous Views + Linens!
Perfect location. Everything was clean and it was well-stocked. Check-out instructions were extremely minimal, it was nice to not feel like we had to spend hours leaving like some other places. It is right next to a public beach access, so there was a lot of foot traffic, but the people moved on quickly and settled further down the beach. I wish there were screens in the windows so that we could have opened them, but the sliding door does have a screen which was nice. The owner was very responsive and friendly. We really enjoyed ourselves!

New! Wave Room, 1 Block to Beach, King Beds
Wow! Loved this sweet, chic beach cottage, very short walk to the beach, where we saw some serious surfing. House is super clean and comfy, and the host thought of everything -- king beds, great kitchen setup, and every beach toy you can imagine. Did a lot of reading and relaxed on the big front porch -- it's on a quiet residential street where you can hear the ocean a block away but lots of birdsong, too. Closer to Kure than Carolina, which we liked. Spent an evening watching the sunset at Fort Fisher and another checking out the historic boardwalk at Carolina Beach. New fave beach rental: we will be back!

"Candlewood Sands" Sand, Surf & SEA Luxury!
We really enjoyed the stay! The pool was great, being right on the beach and near the boardwalk was wonderful and Carolina beach wasn’t too crazy! The only thing to be aware of is there are a lot of stairs with this house

Beachside Paradise: 4BR Home Steps to the Beach
My family had an amazing stay! The home was very clean and looks brand new. The beach is a 2 minute walk from the property. There’s a cafe/convenient store beside the house. If your capable there’s shops, restaurants, ice-cream, beach bars, etc. within a 20-35 min walk. We loved driving down to Kure beach pier (10 minute drive) nightly and spent most evenings walking the boardwalk area, strolling on the pier, and fishing. There were plenty of linens, cookware, and beach gear available at the property. We enjoyed the rooftop balcony, as it had great views of harbor and ocean. The area felt safe and quite at night. Lots of people biking, running, & walking from early morning to late night. Only drawback for us was the parking area. It’s tight, and large/wide vehicles struggle to park or turn around in the parking area especially if you bring the max vehicles aloud. Overall, I highly recommend!! It was an exceptional stay!

Oceanfront Oasis: Hot Tub, Fenced Yard, & Views
The house was exactly as pictured & Beata was so friendly & easy to communicate with. The house was very clean (by far the most clean pet-friendly home we have stayed in). You would have no idea it was pet friendly if you were traveling without four legged children. We can’t wait to return next year!

Luxury Beachfront! 2nd Floor Full Ocean Views!
The condo was wonderful. The whole place felt fresh and clean. Mary Anne was a great host, and had everything covered! We so appreciated all of her thoughtfulness! And the view of the ocean and the private beach access was perfect! We really enjoyed our time there.

Roof Decked Out Retreat: 3 blocks to the beach
Wonderful place! Super close to the beach. The beds were comfortable, I felt right at home. I would stay again!

HotTub, Elevator, Hammocks, Baby gates, Pet&Family
John and his team were incredible! They were all so kind, wonderful communicators, and truly went above and beyond to make sure our stay was amazing. We accidentally left a cell phone, which they went out is their way to return! They also graciously accommodated us after we had to cancel and rebook! I highly recommend!!

spacious 2 BR/BA cottage (no stairs)
We can wait to come back! Our most favorite AirBNB in Carolina Beach yet. We love everything about this place!

Fabulous penthouse condo only steps to the beach.
We rented this house for a week to share with our kids and grandkids. It fit our needs perfectly and we had a great time! It was a nice layout for family, a short walk to the beach, a bit farther to the shops but we actually preferred that. We borrowed a golf cart from a friend and rode our bikes so not an issue. The house had all the amenities we needed for a lovely stay. Matt and Shawn were very friendly and responsive to all of our questions. It would have been helpful to have directions for using the elevator before we started unloading the cars. That’s it! It was a memorable week!

Sandy Knights Less Than 5 Minute Walk to Beach!
Loved staying here and being so close to the beach! In walking distance of so many things. Natalie was very responsive and so helpful whenever I had an issue!

Dogs welcome! Walk to beach! Huge 1 bedroom
We enjoyed our stay, the place looked just like the pictures. Upon arrival we had difficulty with our access code but they got back to us and provided another code that worked.

Carolina Beach: Serene House w/ Pool + Walkable Fu
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Carolina beach and did not want to leave! The home was absolutely perfect for our family with littles. The rooms were spacious and well equipped with all we needed. We really appreciated the access to things like the high chair, sand- proof wagons, beach chairs, and toys because we could pack a little lighter! Our 3 young boys really enjoyed the bunk room! Not only was the home a piece of paradise, the location was ideal! The beach was a quick walk and we enjoyed being less than a mile from the park farmer's market, and our favorite grab&go place, the Veggie Wagon! While we didn't get to enjoy the brand new pool, we can't wait for a future stay. We will be returning!

Ellie's Diggs - Steps to the beach! Pet Friendly!
Nice quiet neighborhood but close to shops/restaurants/beach. Very clean. Felt right at home. Nice, large fenced in backyard. I put my dog on a long lead because she’s very small and curious and I didn’t want her getting under the deck or behind the shed. Beds are comfy!!!

Steps to KB Pier | King Bed | Open living | Pets
Our hosts were amazing. There was a couple of big storms that tripped the breaker and they quickly let us know where the breaker is. Will even offered to swing by to help if needed! The place was clean and beautiful. The internet went out due to the storms,, but there was so much to do - and we could walk pretty much anywhere! Everyone was talking about coming back 💕
