New 3BR Beach Haven in Downtown No Checkout Chores
The home is gorgeous with plenty of room. In a quiet location, but close by to plenty of places to go. Host was super responsive on messages. For example: a message was sent letting them know a remote was missing, and multiple were there in hours as replacement. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice getaway.

Haven By The Lake
The house was great! Quiet, comfy and clean!

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.

Private 2BR Loft w/ Ping Pong & No Checkout Chores
Absolutely beautiful place to stay, perfect for friends or a couple tons of space and great area! The hosts are extremely kind and responsive

The Frenchie House, 4 Bedrooms, All King Beds
Thank you for a wonderful stay! I would like to thank you for the wonderful experience at your home. The space was impeccable, very well organized and exactly as described in the ad. The location was perfect, and all the amenities made our stay very comfortable. Thank you also for your attention and willingness to help us whenever we needed it. We will definitely recommend your property to friends and family and hope to have the opportunity to return in the future. Once again, thank you very much for everything! Reinaldo Santos

The Kure at Carolina Beach!
This was our first experience staying at an Airbnb. The home was nice, spacious, well maintained and as described. There was a lovely walking trail on the road back behind the property- perfect for dogs. The host was very responsive. The only negative was that the unit shares a wall with a second unit and unfortunately there was another group staying in the second unit. They were very loud, played loud music with inappropriate language and lots of bass until late into the night/early morning. While this is no fault of the host, we have young children and it did affect our vacation experience overall. Therefore, I feel it’s worth mentioning and the fact that the unit shares a wall is something to consider.

Beach Daze Duplex - B. Fenced yard! Dogs Welcome!
Yolanda was very accommodating. Place was as described and seemed newly renovated. The price was a bit much for one night, but I'm assuming it goes down some if you get it for longer.

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!

A Wave From It All
This Airbnb was great for us! Very dog friendly, right across from beach access, a nice park across the street, and walking distance to restaurants. We plan to stay here again

Morning brew with an ocean view
Andrew’s place was fantastic! Just a short walk to the beach with a beautiful view from the balcony. We had an amazing time, and our dog loved it too!

Seas The Day w/ Fantastic Marina Views!
We have already recommended MK's place to some others - however, we did warn them that the unit was up 34 stairs! There was nothing in the property description to indicate that and for a couple of 73 year olds the climb with all our stuff was too much. Thankfully we had our young strong kids along! We always appreciate being able to bring our dog along, and he, along with the rest of us, totally enjoyed the 2 private balconies. The ac was plenty cold, the dryer not so hot. Beds comfortable, covered parking a plus, and we all enjoyed the pool. Location was the best, able to walk to every place, and that made it worth the 34 stair climb. Highly recommend Hang Ten Grill for huge salads and best wings ever, Salt Fish for yummy cocktails and deliciously unique entrees ( make a reservation), the Fat Pelican for a fun experience. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to go back!

Carolina Beach Cabana Boardwalk and Beach Condo
Sabine was an incredible host! She reached out after we checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. The cabana is street view but nothing can beat being so close to the beach. A few steps and you are on the boardwalk where you can go to the beach or go to a number of different bars, restaurants, dessert places. Parking was never an issue in the garage and I always felt very secure having coded for all the entry ways. Would definitely stay here again - 10/10 highly recommend!

A Wave From It All - Carolina Beach Condo
We loved this place! Very cute and perfect for a weekend getaway. The hosts were extremely responsive and helpful! The bed was also extremely comfortable!

CoastalCastle~Pool~Big~Family
To begin with, Alex was a great host, the communication and accommodation were fantastic. Responsive to our needs from an early check to a late check out. The house was a wonderful place to stay we had a large group of 12 and everyone had plenty of space. We enjoy the stay and also enjoy the amenities like the pool table, unfortunately we couldn’t use the pool because of the weather but other wise we enjoy our stay.

Beautiful Waterway View w/parking *No service fee!
Great place!!!

Stylish condo/Cozy Balcony/Pool
This place is just as advertised and is a great place to just walk north all the way up through Freeman Park. It’s under 4 miles there and back.

The Good Life
My family and I had an amazing stay! As soon as we walked in the place smelled so clean. The owner responds super fast and I didn’t even have to bother him for anything. I can’t wait to book my next stay!

Beachfront home with Dock !
Beautiful views of Masonboro and the ICW. I think our dog had the best time of anyone! Great private beach perfect for kids and doing some fishing. We enjoyed our stay!

Blue Magnolia #2 -Private entrance, porch, bath!
Really nice stay. Single room and bathroom in historic house. Short walk to Castle Street with great restaurants, coffee shops and stores. Also walkable to downtown and waterfront. Katherine a very responsive host, thought of everything. Communucated frequently and left a list of restaurant recommendations. Complimentary bottle of wine and a corkscrew. Clean, well-appointed room. Snacks. A fridge and microwave. On a main street but set back, some noise but mostly very quiet and private. Charming. Just very nice and near perfect for one person or a couple.

Lumina Cottage- 6 Bedrooms kid & dog friendly!
This home was perfect for our special weekend. It was very close to public beach access (3 min walk) yet felt very private and cozy. The wraparound porch was one of our favorite spots to sit with the dogs. Inside everything was comfortable and clean!! The home is right off a one way street so there is not tons of traffic. The restaurant off the nearby pier was great! All of our guests said they slept comfortably. We all fit in the house very well and had several spots to get some alone time as well. We were able to find everything we needed to properly cook in the kitchen. There were plenty of utensils and plates for everyone. The beach towels by the door came in handy to help get sand off the dogs before they came inside. There were doors everywhere to keep children or dogs contained to one area if needed. I highly recommend this home for all the reasons listed above along with the fact that the host was very responsive and gave us everything we needed to accommodate our stay. 5 stars

Crabby Pad #2 Entire upper unit
This is my third time staying here and it was amazing as always! I love being able to rent a golf cart and it being a short walk and drive from the boardwalk!

Cottage by the Coast
We will 100% be back!! We were all super relaxed including the dogs. Screened in porch with the rocking chairs was a big hit. The outdoor shower was perfect after spending the day at the beach. As always the locals are super friendly and inviting. Very walkable area with a greenway in the back of the neighborhood. Already sent the link to multiple friends and family.

Sweet Caroline 2BR 2BA Cottage w Fence
This place was awesome. The host was amazing as well. We needed some batteries and she responded within minutes and brought them to us within the hour. I was very impressed. I also appreciate the complimentary treats for my pups. We were very comfortable there and I could tell my dogs were comfortable too. Everything is so close by that we never drove by car. We went everywhere in the golf cart which saved us money in parking fees. I will definitely stay here when I go back to Carolina Beach. Thanks for the amazing hospitality!!

Little Paddle 2 Blocks to Beach, Boardwalk & Lake
We had an amazing stay for the month of March. The location was great and walkable to everything in town. The place looked just like the photos and the hosts were amazing. Wed definitely come back!
