Family Vacation

My Family and I stayed 6 nights. The condo was clean and very accommodating. Our kids 6 and 3 slept on the pull out couch and the king size bed in the bed room is a definite plus. The kids enjoyed the extra beach toys that were left out for use. It was super easy to login to our Hulu account on the TV. The condo is as advertised and 100 feet from the beach. We were able to see the boardwalks fireworks from the beach, which was great. Thanks Merri for the great accommodations! PS - everyone with kids that are interested. There two toilets not just one :).

Condo

Every year I stay here. The owner Meri is great to work with. The condo is clean, sanitized, and has just about everything you need. If you have questions, she responds almost immediately. Very short walk to the beach, and the pool is behind the building. The location is quiet and peaceful. Great restaurants and The Boardwalk is a few blocks down. Everything is exact as the description listed for reservations. You won’t be disappointed.

The best beach house

Settled at the top of the island is this cute vacation rental! The house is clean, fresh and relaxing! Everything you need to spend the day at the beach but have the “home” convenience is PERFECT! The owners are really great and respond super fast with any questions you have! This is our second year here and we hope to be back for year 3! Amazing price and amazing place! The people around are also super friendly especially the locals!

Excellent host!

My son and I stayed recently while he was doing a camp at UNC-Wilmington. The unit was clean and well maintained, and the host was excellent about communication. They provided helpful restaurant recommendations and were very understanding about a minor mishap that happened while we were staying there. Highly recommend!

Mini Vacay - Work trip

We were ok w/the condo itself, but the cable went out the last 2 days we were there. After being out all day we just wanted to sit back and watch a movie, but no go. The tv is Roku only, no cable. (I don't readily know my passwords,etc).. I will make sure not to rent another place w/out..the internet was SLOW and had minimal securty which made me a bit nervous working there. Parking was a bit of an issue this time and I'm sure in the summer it will be terrible trying to find a space remotely close by..first come first serve. The passes state $5 fee if lost, but the VRBO charges $50 ea. if lost..a bit excessive I think.

Great overall stay.

Very happy with our stay. One suggestion would be to update the oven/stove range. As someone who does cook and if we’d had a longer stay, that needs to be replaced.

Great Condo

We absolutely enjoyed our stay. Extremely short distance to the beach and the pool right behind us. While we were rarely in the condo, It was extremely clean and no issues at all. Any questions we had, the owners responded immediately. I plan on returning next year.

About the host

Hosted by Merri True

Hello Fellow Travelers!
We are Ben and Merri True and just like you all we love to travel! Carolina Beach is one of our favorite beaches (I grew up here) and we bought this place so we could enjoy it more AND share it with others. We have 2 boys, 17 and 10, and we both work and enjoy our little slice of heaven in CB whenever we can.

Why they chose this property

We ADORE this part of CB. The North end of the island allows you to kind of step back from the busy boardwalk and relax. This property is perfectly located just steps from the beach and is so very comfortable and cozy
