About this property

Your perfect beach home! New sunroom. All inclusive monthly rates off-season.

We have welcomed guests to Pirate Lover for 19 years,. Now we offer a bright, cheerful sunroom, as well as laminate floors, walk in shower and new walls throughout.
Skip the crowded condo! You'll love the tastefully decorated rooms, new screened in porch, clean, thick laminate flooring, new walls, and new walk-in shower.
You'll also feel at home in the well-stocked kitchen, & quiet yard & neighborhood. You are 4 minutes from our driveway to the strand at Holden Beach. You will be glad you chose Pirate Lover at Holden Beach for your family vacation at the beach!
Pirate Lover is a pet-free vacation rental due to allergies, sorry. No pets anywhere on the property.
We offer an affordable, clean, up-to-date place for a family of two-four (or an individual) to spend a nice vacation. It's also available, long-term only in the off-season. Please keep in mind that Pirate Lover is pet- and party-free, and linens are not provided.
Improvements have been made once again.
It’s quiet here inside and out. Peaceful. Great neighborhood for taking a stroll.
Pirate Lover has two bedrooms: one has a queen size bed and the other has a twin bed. In the living room you will find a sofa bed that can sleep another family member.

From Pirate Lover to the ocean is a four minute drive. Between the house and the beach you will pass a small mall, several restaurants, grocery stores and ice cream parlors. Pirate Lover has a yard that is perfect for small children. There is a picnic table w/ choice of charcoal or gas grill. Burnsville is a nice street for strolling and bike riding. The kitchen has a full size refrigerator, full size stove and all the pots, bowls and dishes to make your stay a perfect one. Pizza can be delivered to your front door from two or more locations, and Walmart delivers groceries to your door! At the end of the street you can see boats go by on the waterway, and you can often hear the surf.
The house is neat and well kept. Pirate Lover is perfect for small families who enjoy the beach but also love having some quiet time away from it all. Pirate Lover has a new central air system to keep you cool after a hot day out in the sun. It's a quick drive to the beach. The drive there actually allows you to stop off to make last minute purchases before crossing the bridge to the island.
We rent to couples and families only. The responsible renter, must be 25 years of age or older, must actually stay at Pirate Lover. for the length of the stay.
The $75 cleaning is for sterilizing counters, bathroom and kitchen appliances-also an inspection of house and yard.

It is a place to stay

Cons: I did not see anywhere they had cameras on the property which I understand have cameras for safety, but it would have been nice to know they were there as I was not aware of that until I got a text asking to please not tamper with them. After the fact there was no way, I could have even reached the camera as I am 5'1 and the camera was up higher than that. When I went to make up the queen bed someone had left a pair of shorts between the mattress and foot board that looked like they had been there a while & I left on the footboard. The gate and chain were sort of a pain making sure it was continuously closed which in the description they do ask you to keep the gate closed but I did not realize how annoying it would actually be until you are trying to load or unload the car and trying to carry stuff out and have to open the gate that has a logging chain through it. Pros: The neighborhood was nice and coming in one night we did see deer at a neighbor's house. We really were not at the house long enough during the day. We would get up head out and come back late so the only time we were really at the house was to shower and sleep. It was a close drive to the beach and shops like in the description. We usually stay on Oak Island and rent through a realtor or a hotel but decided to change it up this year. I do appreciate the host opening up their home however I will probably continue to stay in Oak Island and drive to Holden if we want a change of scenery.

Holden Beach 2024

Great location! Nice neighbors! Comfortable and cozy. We were told we needed to bring our own linens and towels ahead of time. We underestimated the inconvenience of that, but for the price... Only feedback is that the TV streaming should be upgraded (old devices - lots of connection failures), but we were not there to watch TV. Hosts were responsive and the property was fabulous.

Couldn't Have Asked For More - Quality Place for a Good Price!

We found Tony's place as we were looking for a location conveniently located close to Supply, NC (we were waiting on a real estate purchase to close in that area). His was perfect! Clean, well appointed, all appliances worked and if you're looking for a nice beach, you've found your spot. The host couldn't have been more accommodating - quick to respond and very helpful. Thank you again, Tony!

Last Minute Family Vaca

We booked this stay super last minute. Wasn’t a lot of options and this was by far the cheapest and best access to the beach we could find. Super quiet neighborhood on a dead end street. Fenced in yard was a plus for us with two young children. The screened in porch was nothing less than great. Inside the house was good, we had some issues with a musty/moldy smell as well as an issue with cockroaches both dead and alive. The home wasn’t really cleaned all that well either. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the ease of going to and from the beach and surrounding restaurants and grocery stores.

Loved it!

We had a wonderful stay at Pirate Lover. The trailer felt spacious for 3 people (2 adults and my son who is 16). Everything you need is provided (minus towels and linen which is mentioned in the listing). Plenty of gaming systems (nice bonus!) and DVDs available for the kids. The front porch was our favorite place to sit and unwind. Pirate Lover is in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood just minutes from the beach. We bought our lunch every day from Jersey Girl Deli, which is located within walking distance from the trailer. The trailer was clean and exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend!

It was a pleasure working with tiny and sybil. If I had questions tony would get right back to me. I loved the screen porch they just added on. So peaceful in the morning and night. If I ever needed a place to rent again I would rent from tony and sybil. Thank you again.

Perfect Little Family Getaway

We love coming to Holden Beach, specifically, we loved coming back for another year at the Pirate Lover. The property is super cute and is a perfect, no frills getaway for our small family. The neighborhood is very quiet. and family friendly for walking or bike riding. The owners are incredibly kind and responsive. Check in and out was a breeze. The kids enjoyed the videos the home owners provide. (Even the teen loved rewatching her childhood favorites, the Vegiie Tales.) We'll be making family memories here year after year for sure!

Sybil is a retired History and English Teacher, Tony is a professor of Composition at Western Governors University, and Caleb is a firefighter and EMT in multiple departments in North Carolina.
We love Pirate Lover, and have been enjoying it for 20 years. We've done a lot to the home over the years, and think you'll find it a great place for your weekend, week-long, or seasonal stay at Holden Beach!

Why they chose this property

Holden Beach is the family beach! Holden Beach is very low key., little traffic to deal with. Our house is on a nice paved cut-de-sac. It is a great place to let your children ride their bikes. The yard is fenced in to protect small children from the traffic-not for housing pets. Pets are NOT allowed. We love animals but do not have them around due to allergies. No linens/towels provided due to COVID.

What makes this property unique

Pirate Lover is close to the beach and the waterway. It is in a very pleasant neighborhood. You are also only a few minutes from Calabash, a planetarium, the USS NC Battleship, shops in Wilmington, and so much more.
