Coastal Cabana - 1 Block to beach with sound view
Grant and Laura’s Coastal Cabana was the best Airbnb for a little getaway for Easter. The place was so cute, clean, and close to the boardwalk and the beach! The kitchen was the perfect size to cook an Easter meal and it will be an Easter for us all to remember. Grant and Laura were super responsive and very accommodating, I would recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay in Carolina Beach! Thank you Grant and Laura!

6/28-7/5 DEAL! 4BR Oceanfront Beach Home Gorgeous!
We enjoyed our week at Emma’s Dream! It was a beautiful home and description was accurate. There was lots of room, beautiful views and relaxing decks to spend time together. The beach was quiet and house is conveniently located near the pier and restaurants. We would definitely rent this home again.

Beachfront cottage with views from every room!
We enjoyed our stay at Do-Nut Delay and will consider booking for our next trip.

Channel Six
Walt’s place is awesome! The home is gorgeous and the location is ideal. Perfect spot for anyone who wants to be close to local bars and restaurants. We enjoyed the amenities and the close proximity to the beach. Would love to stay here again in the future.

Steps to the Beach: Weekly Discounts
This cottage was the perfect spot for a long weekend over Easter. We only had 4 people and 2 dogs, so plenty of space for our crew. The location is awesome. It’s only steps from the beach making it easy to go back and forth as needed without any hassle. The added bonus was all beach chairs and towels were included helping to greatly lighten the packing load. The house was super clean, greatly stocked, and organized. This was a big plus! Lindsey and Billy were super with communication, friendly during our stay, and allowed some flexibility with check in/out. With a child at UNCW, I feel certain we’ll be back. Thanks for everything!

Point Break Historic Beach Cottage
Location is perfect— anything you could want, including the beach and great bars and restaurants, are within walking distance. Beach isn’t too crowded at that beach access, at least this time of year. Shelly is responsive and helpful! Love the interior— simple, cozy, basic.

5 BR best ocean views from all decks
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this Airbnb . The location is unbeatable - just a short walk to the beach. What truly set this stay apart was the attention to detail from the host. It was the perfect place for a relaxing and memorable vacation!

Boardwalk Beauty - 3 Blocks to Beach - Hot Tub
My friend and I took a mother’s & daughters trip with our daughters and it did not disappoint! We would stay here again :) super cute place and the beds were comfy!!
Beach house rentals with a pool

Shake it Off
My family and I had the pleasure of staying at Erin’s Home for Labor Day weekend. We were there to celebrate my birthday as well as time as a family. The home was well prepared for our stay and the necessities needed were all available. It’s such a beautiful home and having access to a pool on the premises was an added plus. The homeowners also provided us a list with information to any questions we may have needed answered which was a nice touch. I recommend anyone interested in renting a home to spend with family or friends, to consider a stay here. You won’t be disappointed! Thank you again to Erin for making us feel welcome at your home. 💛

Holden Beach Oasis | Pool, Fire Pit & Outdoor Bar
We stayed at this property for four days in October and had a greqt experience. The property was beautifully decorated and had all the ammenities that were listed. The property was well manicured outside and the swimming pool and firpit were awesome. Upon arrival we found the property in a very clean and tidy and in working condition. The beds were comfortable and the water pressure in the sinks and showers was good. Maybe it was because we were there in the off season, but there were no crowds to speak of and we felt like we had a lot of privacy at the property. Overall, this was a very good experience.

Mermaid Retreat* Private Pool* Pet Friendly
Great location, and a great time. Backyard with pool is perfect with plenty of room for activities and entertaining. You can walk to the beach and restaurants within minutes.

Carolina's Perfection: Private Pool And Hot Tub
Great house, great stay, great host. It was the perfect place for my friends & I to unwind. Proximity to the beach and the boardwalk was really nice. We were able to rent bikes throughout our stay & tour the neighborhood. The kitchen was beautiful and the house came with cookware needed for our crab boil. But the rooftop is really the star of the show. The 360 view is amazing with the beach on one side and the marina on the other. Thank you Ramith for hosting us! We have to come back!

Stunning ocean views, pool, 350 ft from the beach!
This house was great! Spacious and the views amazing and the short walk to the beach was fantastic! Andrea was very easy to work with and quick to respond to questions. We’d definitely rent here again!

5 o’clock Always
This was an excellent rental experience. The house is even better than the photos and our family had a lovely vacation. The pool and the backyard is very private and relaxing. We also rented the golf cart which was a highlight of the trip!

Making Waves-Scenic Getaway- Heated Pool & Hot Tub
We are frequent AirBnB travelers, and this place was exceptional! Lots of space, super clean, great pool & hottub, LOVED the golf cart - a fantastic was to get around the island! Everything we needed was there from eco-friendly hygiene and cleaning items to every kitchen utensil needed to cook (which we did lots of!). The hosts were SUPER responsive when we had questions. Check out their guide book - lots of great to dos and local eateries! We've already recommended this place to friends and will definitely return if we're in the area. Thanks for a great place for a great week!

Sip&Dip*Saltwater Pool*PeacefulPrivacy
Beautiful house and great host! We had a great time and would stay here again.
Pet-friendly beach house rentals

CityWoes2SandyToes, dog-friendly fully-fenced yard
Min and Glen have an awesome place, great location and not far from the beach. We love bringing our dog on trips and Min and Glen were very accommodating. Also we had to change dates and Min made it stress free. We would totally stay at the City Woes 2 Sandy Toes again.

Oceanfront,pet friendly,fenced yard
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.

Linens Included/Dog Friendly "Oak Island Oasis"
We had a great stay at Kolleen’s place. Loved the front screened porch to relax in and listen to the birds. Was very peaceful. We came down for Easter and to visit my son, who lives in Oak Island. Kolleen’s place was just as described and had plenty of room for my family of 5. We even hosted dinner, one evening, for 7 of us (plus 2 dogs) and there was plenty of room. The walk to the beach was not bad at all, just a little tricky crossing the main road (but doable). The bikes were an added plus. Would definitely stay here again.

The Surf Shack
House was great! Very close to the beach. The owner swung by to give us beach towels and she was lovely! Great little spot!

Starfish Retreat II - Walk to Carolina Beach
Our 11 guests loved the location, privacy, amenities and the kids especially loved the upstairs game room. The beach entrance was just a few steps away, so nice to see the sunrise / sunset and it was walking distance to the boardwalk. I would definitely go back!

Egret ~ Beachfront Cottage (pet-Friendly)
You couldn’t ask for a better little beach trip! Took a couple days to get away and the accommodations were perfect for my dog and I. Private, quiet, beautiful beachfront views and the fenced in area was perfect for my dog. Mikes place was clean, had everything I needed, and very comfortable. Loved it so much I booked a second stay!

Rusty Anchor: Family & Pet Home, Walk to the Beach
This was our 5th time staying at The Rusty Anchor and as always it didn’t disappoint! We had a great Spring Break at the most peaceful location with the most beautiful surroundings with our Berners Barli and Brewer! Scott is an amazing host and we look forward to our next visit ☺️

House of Zen-Fenced/Bikes/Firepit/Outdoor shower!
We enjoyed our stay at The House of Zen! We were there for spring break and had a relaxing and restful stay. We enjoyed the bikes provided and biked over to the beach most days of our stay. We also played corn-hole and built a fire in the fire pit. The house had everything we needed while we were there. It’s in a great location and neighborhood. The only negative is that it could use a deep cleaning but other than that, it’s a great place.
