Tranquility Base Stay

This was my family's 5th time staying at Tranquility Base at Kure Beach, and everything at the house was great! It ended up being a very rainy weekend, but we were able to have a relaxing time staying indoors at the house. Due to the storm that came through, on the day we were leaving we were stuck due to flooding and the hosts were very flexible with us and allowed us to stay until we could get on the roads which was amazing since we were traveling with a pup and 6-month old baby. Our stays here have always been great and they always responded to us very quickly which we appreciated very much!

Best Place to Stay in Kure Beach!

Me and a group of friends stayed at this amazing house for a long weekend during 4th of July week. This house provided everything we needed and more. It was so spacious for me and my 12 friends. Also the wagons, beach chairs, and water floats came in handy for our beach days! 10/10 recommended.

Tranquility Base

I must say the name of this home says it all! We are not one to be around a lot of people and usually come down and stay out on Fort Fisher 4 wheel drive beach everyday. This home is away from it all and even during Memorial Day weekend, we felt like we were the only one's on the island while at Tranquility Base. It's very spacious and had so much more than we would ever use. Ample parking (my husband's 2500 PowerWagon fit under the garage). Communication was on point with the rental company. Although we didn't experience any issues during our stay, they made sure we knew we could reach out to them anytime. We will stay again!

Beach Retreat

Overall, our stay at this property was fantastic. All the facilities were as advertised and clean. The location is premium and close to all local attractions. The home is beautifully decorated. However, some decor items are fragile and are within reach of little hands. We had to move the fragile decor in reach of our little ones and place it back when checking out. Other than this, this location is the perfect family getaway. We had fun and the house was great for our group (two infants, 3 children, a teenager and several adults). The property is well stocked and we look forward to making this location our home away from home. Thank you!

Easy check in Sunday evening, very nice, clean, well furnished house with plenty of space for our family of 10. Easy walk to beach access, and it isn’t right on the main drag. We really enjoyed our five day trip. Worth the 9 hour ride to get here.

Vacation 2023

Tranquility base was the perfect house for the entire family for our vacation! We were so comfortable. There was plenty of space to relax. Being able to take our two Golden Retrievers was a plus! The beach access was a 5-10 minute walk based on the speed. We got used to it. The only thing better would be if the house was on the beach with direct access. Overall a great place to stay!

The house was wonderful and the location was fantastic. It was close to everything including the beach with a short walk. We enjoyed all the porches of the house and when our ice machine wasn’t working, it was serviced quickly. The house was well equipped and comfortable. Highly recommend!

We keep on coming

This is our 4th time coming to Tranquility Base. The only "problem" is that we can never stay as long as we like! Love the fully stocked kitchen. So much space to spread out both inside and out. This was the first time we had a second family come with, and it went without a hitch.

What an amazing place for large (and small) families to get together an enjoy each others company in a very comfortable and quiet setting. The home was clean and welcoming, the location was perfect and Kure beach is an amazing place. The 4x4 beach was a hit and so were the long walks in Fort Fisher State Recreation area. We had a blast. Thank you!

Good, quiet location. Comfortable, bright, open, and clean accommodations.

Nice spot with easy access to the beach. Beach is realizing some erosion but still plenty of room. There were some surfable waves. Riding bikes and walking on the beach road is a bit risky since it is the only access to Fort Fisher at this end of the beach; and the speed limit goes up to 35 mph.

A getaway we really needed

We had a great visit during the week of Thanksgiving. It was just what we needed. It was so nice arriving to a Christmas tree with a beach theme. The layout allowed us to spread out and really enjoy ourselves but also have some space. Beds were comfy and the many porches were super nice. No complaints. The only thing I would note is that the walk to the beach is a little longer than described - not much but a little longer, something I thought I'd mention. However, without a doubt we would return again. It was so clean too, something that is really important to our family. If you are looking for a place to rent, look no further!
