Beachfront holiday rentals in Carolina Beach

Staying at this Airbnb felt like a true escape. The location couldn't have been better – being mere steps from the beach was such a treat, allowing for spontaneous walks and the calming sound of the waves. It was wonderful to find such a genuinely dog-friendly place; my pups absolutely loved it, which made the stay even more enjoyable for me. The entire atmosphere was incredibly relaxing, and I found the off-season to be a particularly lovely time to visit, with beautiful weather and a sense of peacefulness. The property itself had everything I could possibly need, making it easy to settle in and feel comfortable. Amy was fantastic – always communicative and helpful, ensuring a smooth and easy stay. While there were plenty of options for things to do in the area, I also appreciated the opportunity to simply unwind and work remotely in such a serene setting. The upper deck was my favorite spot for getting sun many hours of the day. I’ve stayed in many airbnbs and this is a favorite!

The place was as described, a great deal and right in the ocean's edge. Amanda's responded quickly when we reached out with a question.

We always love staying here. The condo is so warm and cozy. Rob is a fantastic host. The views are amazing and the location perfect. We can’t wait to return yet again.

This place was perfect for my wife and our dogs! Beachfront location is amazing! Updated, beautiful & fully stocked kitchen was helpful. Host was extremely responsive, very timely and answered all our questions. We will definitely look into staying here again!

Loved our stay! Was able to check in early and was in a great location! We will stay there every time we visit.

We couldn't ask for a better place to stay. The fenced in yard under the house was a great place to drop off our beach gear at the end of the day. The view of the ocean was incredible and everyone had an amazing time. 5 Stars for the Millers.

We love this beach cottage! It is right on the beach but also offers a private, shady porch to watch the surf if you've had enough sun. A grill, outdoor shower and hammocks complete the beachy vibe. We have stayed at the cottage three times over five years and hope to go back.

Perfect little beach getaway! Walking distance to the beach, bars, and restaurants. Really enjoyed this cute little surf shack!

Kellie and Russ have the perfect, affordable and secluded getaway spot for someone who wants beach views and easy beach access. We spent nearly all day on the beach and were within a few steps to the condo. Wifi was great — my husband was even able to take zoom calls in the condo. The hosts were beyond helpful and quick communicators. We truly appreciated and enjoyed their space and hospitality.

This was the perfect weekend stay for our small family! The condo was spacious, clean, and surprisingly toddler-friendly, which we really appreciated with a 2- and 4-year-old in tow. It’s just one block from the public beach access, and there were plenty of fun places to explore within a mile. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot for a relaxing family getaway!

Great place and fantastic location. End unit on a townhouse with a shared pool and public beach access, but still felt private and you're on the beach in seconds...you couldn't get any closer! The deck with view was absolutely stunning and perfect of you enjoy people watching :) The host was very responsive and helpful; I particularly liked the list of local eats/activities (I would have underlined Shaka Taco if I had a piece of chalk!). Definitely recommend!

The host was extremely responsive. Loved the place. Everything in Surf City is super close. Had a great stay. Would rent again!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was spacious, the area was serene. We loved being able to hang by the pool and walk to the beach easily. We had everything we needed and the hosts were lovely. They sent all the info we needed prior to so if we needed something we were able to refer back to it. The beach itself is beautiful, food was great at sharkys! We definitely enjoyed the house and area and will be back 😊

Beautiful place, excellent location!!!

We had a lovely stay at Jim’s place. It was exactly as described and pictured. I’d say even better. Jim has really thought of the little details, such as phone chargers, water in the fridge, and some beginning toiletries. The beach was fantastic and so close. Location is prime. Right in Surf city close to everything. Can’t wait to come back.

Jeremy and Melissa's place was great. Just as described. You can see and hear the ocean from the balcony. When my daughter left her beloved stuffed animal, they responded right away and helped me make arrangements to get it back to her. Lovey home, lovely hosts!

We loved staying here! It was the perfect girls getaway! It was cozy and had plenty of space! If we could have stayed longer we would have. We were able to walk to a little park that was having a spring festival and the area itself was so quiet and peaceful. Amazing porch view too! Absolutely loved the home and would definitely stay again!

My family and I went down for spring break. The home was right on the beach and had a very convenient walking path to the beach. Upon arrival, the house was clean and clutter-free. We didn't need anything. The host was highly responsive and accommodating when I reached out with questions. Book this place! It is a very deal and worth the peace it brings when you're sitting on the porch drinking your morning coffee!

Perfect beach cottage on Oak Island! It was incredibly well stocked and we wanted for nothing. The house is also adorably decorated, the linens and mattresses are very nice quality, the appliances are well kept and work as expected. The view from the front porch is heavenly and the outdoor furniture is ample and comfortable. We were also surprised to find swings beneath the house that the kids used all the time! Perfect area to hang out when getting ready for the beach or while taking a break. Outdoor shower on walkway and under the house have hot water! I honestly can’t say enough good things about this rental. We will book again and again!

We were pleased with our stay. The beds were very comfortable and we felt cared for in the accommodations. The view is perfect even in the rain!

We loved our stay at the condo! The location was great and very quiet. It was the perfect size for my family of four. The kids were a bit sad the pool was closed since the cover was off and it appeared to be open but the closed sign was up but we knew there was a good chance it wouldn’t be open for the season. The building’s outdoor shower was also off but the one on the beach access worked great.

Our stay here was phenomenal!! Nhiza was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. The house is right beside a public beach access so we were able to walk to the water very easily. It was also well stocked with dishes and towels for us to use. I would definitely stay here again!!

Loved Dawn’s place! The view is absolutely breathtaking! That was my favorite part of walking in, going to sleep, and waking up. The view made me feel like “Okay now this is a vacation”! Dawn was so friendly and responsive! Ready to lend a hand if needed. Will definitely keep this on my list of favorites.

The place was great for our family of 6. Every person had a bath towel and one wash cloth. The decks were great to sit outside for the sunrise! The kitchen amenities aren’t specifically listed, but they are enough if you want to do a bit of cooking. Bring your own beach towels - 2 are provided. We loved how quiet this place was down on the sound end of the island. It is a clean and cute place! We’d definitely come here again, though we were a bit put off that there are three hosts listed and no one responded to the two messages with questions that we sent before and during our stay.
