About this property

Unique Carolina Beach House - Built-in Outdoor Hot Tub -Tremendous Outdoor Decks

This beach house is arguably the most unique beach house in Carolina Beach. It was created solely with the relaxation and enjoyment of the occupants in mind. The upstairs of the house has a large great room with connecting kitchen and dining rooms. There is an outdoor covered porch on the 2nd floor to enjoy the views and to hang out / dine. The very large great room is divided in two. There is a 65 inch LED TV with full cable/DVD capability on one side for watching television/movies. The other side is a living room to enjoy the views of the ocean and salt marshes. The kitchen is fully equipped with new stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, etc. There is a large guest bedroom upstairs. Free internet / wifi is available inside and outside the house.

This house is not ocean front. However, it is directly aligned with a public beach access which is a block away. This allows for very nice views of the ocean to the east, a large salt marsh to the north, and great views of the surroundings from inside the house, from the 1st and 2nd floor decks and the outdoor hot tub on the 1st floor deck.

The house has 3 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths. All the bathrooms have granite vanity tops and large ceramic tiled showers with thick glass enclosures. The master bathroom also has an oversized bathtub. All 3 bedrooms have walk in closets.

The master bedroom is very large with a mini bar with refrigerator and serves as a suite with a sitting area with a very comfortable fold out couch. From this bedroom, there are views of the ocean and french doors that lead out to the built in hot tub as part of the very large decking system. There is a large foyer area with adjacent laundry room for drying beach towels etc. The 1st floor has 1 additional large guest bedroom.

The house has 3 large bedrooms with a large queen sized fold out couch in the master suite and 2 additional queen sized fold out couches in the great room. The additional fold out couches will accommodate 6 additional adults far a total of 12 adults. The fold out couches have new 'memory foam' mattresses and are very comfortable.

The 1st floor decking system is impressive in all that it has to offer. There is an array of very comfortable outdoor furniture that will accommodate up to 15 people. A built in hot tub seats 6 adults with views of the surrounding area. Beneath the covered portion of the deck is a granite tiki bar with sink and electrical outlets. A selection of small electrical appliances is available (toaster oven, electric grill, griddle, hot plate, toaster, coffee maker, blender) so that meals can be prepared outside if wanted.

All sheets, pillow cases, etc., bath and an ample supply of beach towels are included. The beds are already made. No need for a linen service. The kitchen is fully equipped including many small appliances for use inside and outside on the deck / tiki bar. Ample supply of laundry detergent, soap, shampoo, dishwasher detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, etc. Pretty much everything you will need is available in the house so you only have to bring food and personal items.

Best place to stay at Carolina Beach

Glousterman Place was the perfect spot for my family to stay for my beach wedding! Clean property, one block from the beach, spacious, comfortable, pet friendly, and a hot tub, too! It doesn't get better than that. Chris was super helpful in accommodating our party's needs and even offered advice on the best spot on the beach to say "I do." Our whole party enjoyed the house thoroughly and we would gladly stay here anytime.

Great vacation home

This home is in a great location with just a short one block walk to the beach access which you can see from the house. Views from the decks are wonderful - both ocean and marsh views. We were fortunate to meet Chris, the owner, on our arrival. He was wonderful and told us to call with any needs. We didn’t have any since the house was stocked with everything we needed.

Great Place and location

This house is amazing, and has great amenities (hot tub and deck). We had 6 people and had plenty of room. Access to the beach is super easy, and the deck space was perfect for hanging out and enjoying the nice weather. Lots of stairs though, and the main living space and kitchen is on the 3rd floor. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and will definitely book again.

Perfect Graduation Gathering Spot

Our daughter graduated from UNCW this weekend. We had friends and family coming in from several states and we needed a place to gather after the graduation ceremony. This home was a perfect location and layout for entertaining friends. Our family stayed for a long weekend and enjoyed cooking several large meals, relaxing on the beach (very close walk to access) and hanging out on large decks and hot tub. Thanks to Chris for his hospitality. We would definitely choose this property for future Carolina Beach gatherings.

Great house at a great location!

Our family loves the Carolina/Kure beach area and vacations there every year. The house is well appointed and has plenty of space to spread out. The deck(s) are great and offered a nice place to hang out after a hectic day. Love the northern end as it's quiet, has great beach access, and offers a nice spot to unwind. I'd recommend this property to others looking for the same!

Spring Break

Lovely home with views of the beach and marsh. Very easy walk to beach. Close drive to other attractions like Wilmington and the Aquarium. There were 7 of us and we all were very comfortable. My 13 year old dog loved it and we would book this place again in a heartbeat.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Holland

Host profile image
I am a former resident of Carolina Beach and still return to visit close friends. I built this house to enjoy the north end of Carolina Beach and as an investment. I built it with the philosophy of enjoying the beach, relaxing both inside and outside on the very large decks. In building the house, I tried to think of everything reasonably possible to add to the enjoyment of being at the beach as well as creating a 'different kind of beach house' that would be used by vacationers and as a result a good investment.

Why they chose this property

This beach house has as much to offer as any beach house in Carolina Beach. The combination of the ocean and salt marsh views, the large decks with comfortable furniture to relax, the built in hot tub, etc. will allow for the enjoyment of any family for their vacation.

What makes this property unique

Very large 1st floor deck with new outdoor furniture that will seat as many as 15 people. A built in hot tub is right outside the master bedroom. The covered portion of the deck has a granite tiki bar with electrical outlets and a wide selection of small appliances so that breakfast/lunch/dinner can be prepared.
