Time In A Bottle*Oceanfront*Views*Linens
Outstanding beachfront cottage No houses on adjacent lots Near the end of the island No crowds, serene, quiet Big beaches just across the dunes from the house Really well equipped, everything thought of & provided Great beds, clean, well decorated Easy from check in to check out Loved it Thank you Amyšššš

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!

Salt and Sand! Spacious home with ocean views!
Great house, great host. House was clean with everything we needed. Host, Suzan, was easy to reach and very helpful. We will definitely book the house again.

Stunningly Renovated Ocean Front Home Sleeps 14
My family all loved Charlieās house! It was a great layout for adults chatting around the kitchen bar while kids had room to play. Kitchen was well equipped and furniture was comfortable. Having the linens in plastic wrap was a nice touch and felt very clean and safe. The beach was really nice in front of the house. Climbing over the dunes gave us a good workout, but also gave us privacy from beach walkers, etc. Hoping to rent here again!

Beach Front Home-with hot tub! All linens provided
Being on the beach was awesome! We enjoyed sunrises from the hot tub, going right down our stairs to the sand, walks to the pier, evenings on the deck⦠It was the perfect setting for our little reunion! The house is clean and comfortable with everything you might need. Location is also super convenient to food & coffee & seafood market. The only surprises were that our space was attached to another house (neighbors were very quiet, respectful, and friendly) and that we had to make our own beds upon arrival and remove bedding before check out. Overall, Emilyās house made our time with people we love even more fun & easy! She was a communicative, helpful host and we appreciate her sharing her home!

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. Thatās it! It was a memorable week!

"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 wasnāt too crazy! The only thing to be aware of is there are a lot of stairs with this house

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 canāt wait to return next year!
Beach house rentals with a pool

Star Struck- Oceanfront B/Pool/Steps from Beach!
We had a wonderful stay and cannot recommend this home enough! Excellent access to the beach and the home has everything you could need and so much more! Hosts were very easy to communicate with and responded quickly. We would love to come back!

Poolside in the Pines
It was amazing the only regret is wish we couldāve stayed longer. There was a slight odor in the house but other than that it was pleasant!!

Private Heated Pool, Tiki Hut- 10min walk to beach
Thank you for having us. Your home is a great stay for families and itās nice that you allow dogs. Hosts are very responsive and will fix whatever issues might arise. Also, they leave you be and let you have complete control of the place. The pool is very nice and the screened in porch too. House is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need and more. My only wishes were that there was better grass in the yard and around the pool area for dogs. Also, that the house didnāt have the faint smell of cigarette smoke. Aside from that, our stay was excellent and we would visit again. Thank you! We appreciate it. ā¤ļø

2 Kings! Heated Pool! Elevator! Beach Supplies!
From the moment we arrived at Tigerās Pride, we knew we had found a true gem! The home was in a great location, exceptionally clean, had room for everyone, and everything you could think of needing for a few days at the beach was at our fingertips. We were only a 3-5 min walk to the beach and chairs, cart, and umbrellas were provided. Local recommendations were spot on. NancyPaige was responsive and easy to connect with for any questions. We loved this home and hope to visit again soon!

Where The 3Cs Gather! -Welcome to Coastal Elegance
This home is so wonderful. It's clean, updated, spacious, and comfortable. The setup is awesome for multiple families or a large family (one king beds suite on the top floor near the kitchen and living areas, then one king suite on the middle floor next to three other bedrooms and another bathroom). We so enjoyed evenings on the rooftop, playing cards on the porch, grilling poolside, the bikes and pool toys provided...and of course being two blocks from beach access! There are little touches that make it feel homey and relaxing - nice decor, guest book, well-stocked kitchen utensils, the big TV in the living room, etc. We enjoyed it so much, we plan to return next year. Thank you. We loved it so much, we already plan to go back.

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!

Second Row From Beach | Beach Views | Private Pool
The house was very clean, new furniture and appliances throughout, and beautifully decorated. Itās in a great location within a short distance to the public beach access. Holden Beach is a family favorite for us and we will definitely be keeping this house on our list for future stays!

Carolina's Perfection: Private Pool And Hot Tub
Ramithās 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!!

Royal Sands ~ Steps to beach!
Used this place as a romantic getaway and it was absolutely perfect! The beach is right outside and the balcony ocean view was everything. Waking up to the sound of the waves was beautiful. The entire place was beautiful and felt at home. Host provided everything we couldāve ever needed. This was such a peaceful experience that Iād recommend to anyone. Great for a solo, couple, or family getaway! Proximity to restaurants, events, and things to do was also very nice. Could walk or drive almost anywhere.

Beach Please Oceanfront
We come to Oak Island every year and this house was by far our favorite we have ever stayed at and plan to come back here next year! The mattresses are so comfortable, the house was so clean, comfortable and cozy that it was a joy to come back to every day and it truly felt like a luxurious vacation. Every amenity was top notch, and we truly wanted for nothing while staying here. Having direct access to the beach, with an outdoor shower with hot water, and all of the beach chairs and sunshades you need was just incredible. We had the best time- thanks again!!

Coastal Ca-Sea-ta
Carrie was very clear in her instructions of how to check -in and check-out. The Ca-Sea-Ta was a wonderful and beautiful place to stay. Carrie has set this place up so you feel like you're at home. It is a very relaxing place to stay. It is a short walk to the beach. The outdoor shower was such a refreshing and lovely place to get all the sand off before going into the spacious apartment. They had all the beach items you'll need. It was great to have a washer/dryer so we could come home with clean clothes.(I hate coming home from vacation to have to do laundry!) The Ca-Sea-Ta was the perfect get away!

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.

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!

The Upper Deck at Lumina by the Sea~Hot Tub
We had a great girls trip! Lovely home with all the amenities you need. comfy beds super clean location location location. steps from the beach awesome sitting area outside and clean hot tub! Lovely decor Cozy Couch Perfect for any trip for any occasion!

Beach Views on Cape Fear
MKās place is nothing short of magic. We will no longer stay anywhere else on the island- we absolutely love it here! Itās stunning and right in the middle of everything. We feel sad every time we leave.
