OCEAN FRONT! SUPER CLEAN!!! see reviews.. .Private boardwalk beach access!
Welcome to The Carolina Beach House!
Beach REJUVENATED/expanded as of March 2022!!!
ALL SURFACES SANITIZED between stays!!!
To provide a safe, clean, fun and comfortable experience for all of our Guests was our initial goal and now ongoing effort. At The Carolina Beach House we are striving to provide a "home away from home".
NO DAMAGE from prior year hurricane seasons! The 2016 renovations have been a success - metal roof, hurricane shutters, exterior doors, windows... all paid off!
A COMPLETE CONDOMINIUM ACCOMMODATION! OVER 700 SQUARE FEET - with FULL KITCHEN and PRIVATE PATIO with Dune Views!!! Inn Keepers/Owners available to provide any additional requested conveniences! - So much better than even the best hotel room!
Drop the typical hotel/motel cookie-cutter single room/suite experience. An authentic ocean front beach house is the best way to enjoy traveling - business or pleasure! You'll never want to stay at a hotel again!
PRIVATE BEACH ACCESS!!!
*** LINENS INCLUDED for a small additional fee, just $35!!! (contact Genevieve for details)***
GO BACK IN TIME! Wonderful Authentic Historic Beach House! Bottom Floor - easy living, clean, comfortable, fully furnished and supplied with everything you need for a relaxing stay... pots, pans, dishware, etc. Boardwalk and Gathering Deck atop the dunes provide spectacular views from pier to pier! RENOVATED 2017 interior... upgraded kitchen, entirely new bathroom with tile shower, pedestal sink, new beds, furniture, etc.! And 2016 exterior... new metal roof, newly installed vinyl windows, new fiberglass doors, reconstructed decks... Updated yes, YET maintaining the historic charm such as original wood plank walls and ceilings of yesteryear! With open windows hear the surf just steps away! The strong bones of the beach house have survived five major named hurricanes over the years, yet hear the creaks of the footsteps and faint, muffled joyous laughter of other House Guests above. Even the upgraded blown-in open-cell foam insulation between floors wasn't enough to negate the wonderful sounds of this historic Beach House. The private covered back patio provides peaceful views of the coastal backyard plantings and swaying tall grasses. Side open-air patio area provides additional private sitting and relaxation. TRULY UNIQUE in these days. Everything about this nearly 100 YEAR OLD Beach House brings you back in time!
Private boardwalk leads to beautiful Carolina Beach! Five minute drive or 20 minute walk to all the downtown restaurants and attractions! View from your private gathering deck the Thursday Night Fireworks Display! Enjoy area attractions to include the Fort Fisher Museum, NC Aquarium at Fort Fisher, NC Maritime Museum at Southport, Carolina Beach State Park, Carolina Beach Lake Park, both fishing piers, Freeman Park Recreation Area, the recently renovated and extended Carolina Beach Boardwalk, Tregembo Animal Park, the Battleship North Carolina, and so much more!

About the host
Hosted by Genevieve Devalle
We decided some time ago our next adventure in life would be to own a beach house vacation rental. We came to this decision after visiting a quaint beach vacation rental on the coast of Georgia. The owner had six units which he personally oversaw living in the upstairs quarters (which we now do here at The Carolina Beach House... read more!}. His kitchen served as his work station and greeting area. After visited him we came to the conclusion... why could we not do something similar? So we undertook the hard, but fun work of researching what it would take to run an "Inn". Providing food service is something we did not want to undertake. So not a bed and breakfast, but rather a simple, clean, comfortable, and safe guest house type accommodation. Next was the process of visiting the various towns and beaches lining the North Carolina Coast. Having our real estate licences in the state of NC fortunately kept our reach just to this wonderful state. We fell more and more in love with Carolina Beach with each visit. Then a matter of finding the perfect property. Something manageable, yet viable to be a full time career for the two of us. What was formerly "Alexander's Hideaway" found us that magical once in a lifetime opportunity! Having survived five major named hurricanes over 60 plus years of existence this wonderful injured beach house was in need of extensive loving and care. Upon your visit the before and after pictures will truly show you the story. New metal roof to replace the dying multi-layered shingled aged roof, leaking wood windows replaced with new low-E vinyl efficiency windows, new furniture, new appliances, freshly painted inside and out, fresh look to the block construction foundation walls to include a colorful concrete sealer, reconstructed decks to support the weight of any number of guests... the list goes on! We're so pleased with the work put into our beach house by all involved. We look forward to meeting you!
Why they chose this property
Specifically this property... the Beach House is actually a very versatile duplex. We briefly considered a larger property - more of a hotel type feel, but concluded it would be too overwhelming for just the two of us. The Town of Carolina Beach and New Hanover County recognize this property as a duplex. Reason for that is the two side- by- side accommodations (bottom floor) have an adjoining door. So the two spaces are continuous living space and may be shared. And the large second floor has an adjoining door to the smaller third floor flat. So with this comes three separate accommodations to rent as vacation rentals. Although a daunting task to start with all of the necessary renovations, we felt once complete the beach house would be within our ability to maintain and entertain the number of people who could visit with us at any one time.The lower right space is perfect for a couple and perhaps a child or two. One bedroom and with a newly furnished Day Bed with Trundle in the family room. The quaint and quirky "D space" titled, The Seahorse, features a seahorse theme and a 3/4 tall bedroom door with top portion of the opening closed with swag curtains. Has a full kitchen as do all the other spaces. Open Dining and Family Rooms with wonderful views of the back yard and dunes. Private seating covered patio out back and of course access the private boardwalk. This listing - the "C space" , The Sand Dollar, is a mirror image of the Seahorse with the exception of not having the additional Dining area rather has a second Bedroom... sleeps up to six (pull out sleeper sofa in Family Room). Then there is the "B accommodation", The Anchor. With a full sized Kitchen, ocean views from all bedrooms truly serves as our anchor for the Beach House. So having the vision and what the prospects could come of this endeavor we dove right in!
What makes this property unique
Once you turn into the driveway and first-hand view The Carolina Beach House you'll feel a sense of going back in time. The unique charm of the Beach House will calm all of the day-to-day stress you may have had. Opening the front door will further turn back the clock. ... original tongue and groove wall boards and ceilings, original slotted bedroom doors, swag curtains, original glass wood windows serves as a headboard, while sand fencing serves as the other. Step out to the back patio to hear the waves breaking only steps away! Views of the dunes and private access to beach and gathering deck atop the dunes completes the release. You won't want to leave. Don't believe us? Absolute peace and tranquility await! Put down the cell phone and enjoy!
