Beech I Told U So! New Build

RocioRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Our stay at Timothy’s place was excellent. The weather was terrible during our stay due to a tropical storm, but the beautiful house made up for the weather. Timothy has thoroughly thought of every detail in the home. It is beautifully furnished and decorated. It has a great outdoor space. There were plenty of televisions to keep everyone happy given the weather. The hot tub is frequently serviced and clean. It has a very nice outdoor tub as well. The outdoor showers are beautiful and well designed. He has hoses on every level to minimize tracking sand into the house. We felt very relaxed. We would definitely recommend Timothy’s place. Very responsive host. Timothy definitely cares about his property and the comfort of his guests. We would come back and recommend this house.

2 BR Oceanfront Escape | Linens & Beach Chairs!

KatieRating, 5 stars4 days ago
We had a wonderful stay and appreciated the small touches like the array of coffee pods, new sponge, and extra beach gear. We also loved the set-up of the house and the spacious kitchen, along with the relaxing deck areas and convenient outdoor shower. The kids had a blast and we got to relax. It was a great spot for our family!

Little House On The Beach

SalinaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This little house was the perfect beach stay. The wrap around deck with steps that lead to the sand, private beach access, and big window views of the ocean were amazing. I will emphasize that it is exactly as advertised, “little house on the beach” with one shared bathroom, 2 small bedrooms, and a living room/kitchen this is a perfect spot for a couple, small family, or just a few adults. If you’re trying to save and fit more the beds will accommodate just want to caution it will be cramped! The house was spotless and stocked with everything we needed.

Beachski's Bungalow- Ocean views and Beach access

KristenRating, 5 stars2 days ago
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.

Dune Our Thing! With an amazing view!

LayRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had an amazing getaway! The check-in and check-out process was quick and easy. The property was spotless upon arrival. We spent most of our time on the balcony, which offered a breathtaking ocean view. The location couldn’t have been better. We enjoyed exploring the local area, especially the Carolina Boardwalk. Also, with the beach just steps away the experience was truly unforgettable. It was the perfect escape, and we would absolutely love to stay here again!

Ocean Front Beach House Kearney Castle

CassandraRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We absolutely loved our stay at Kearney Castle and we will definitely be back. The rental was in the perfect location and the views of the ocean were perfection. I love that the owners allow us to bring our dogs. They loved the beach too! The hosts recommendations for local restaurants were spot on. We loved Mulligans and Noosa Beach Grille. The deck was awesome also. we visited off season but the street was quiet and the beach was mostly empty, which we loved for the dogs! The house isn't brand new but that's what we loved. We loved the handwritten note instructions on the fridge and the sea shell shelf as a guest book of memories for all the past guests!

"TopsailVacay" Pet Friendly Home, Walk to Beach!

Ashley-AnneRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Michelle’s home is pristinely clean and beautiful! The layout is perfect for a group. The elevator was so helpful for my ADA needs, as well as in general for our groceries and luggage. Between the two decks and fenced backyard, there are multiple outdoor ocean side options for relaxing, meals, or games. Our group also really enjoyed the kayak. Michelle is a great communicator and so hospitable. Highly recommend, and we look forward to a future stay.

StephanieRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Nikki’s beach house was perfect! She was an extremely responsive, communicative & kind host! The house was exactly as pictured and was the right fit for our family of 5! The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, the sunroom was lovely, and there were games, books & toys for the kids which was a huge plus, along with the pack and play and high chair! The beach chairs, toys and bikes were also amazing!! We look forward to staying there again!

Point Break Historic Beach Cottage

FernRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
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.

Oceanfront,pet friendly,fenced yard

ChrisRating, 5 stars4 days ago
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.

Oceanfront home- pool, playground, 3 suites, beach

JoshRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We couldn’t have selected a better location for the two family 4 kid long weekend. Kids could scooter along the pedestrian road and the playground is within visibility from inside the house. Great amenities and every item you could need from a kitchen was available. The view of the ocean from the top balcony was beautiful.

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 😊

Amazing Oceanfront Setting, Spectacular Views+Pool

TedRating, 5 stars7 months ago
What a beautiful home just steps from the ocean. Our group of 8 high school friends had a great time and appreciated the beautiful accommodations. Bedrooms are varied and well-separated for privacy. Lots of doors to access to the rear deck, pool, hot tub, and beach. The kitchen is a gourmet's delight with a great selection of cookware and tableware. We would have appreciated a few more essentials in the kitchen and bathroom.

Lovely 1 bedroom condo right on the beach.

MayaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
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!
