Beach house holiday rentals in Carolina Beach

The 5 of us old high school pals had a stupendous time. Tons of laughter on the deck overlooking the water. Great views! The cottage had everything we needed!

Great house, great host. House was clean with everything we needed. Host, Suzan, was easy to reach and very helpful. We will definitely book the house again.

The beachfront location was amazing. We really enjoyed spending most of our time on the beach and the deck. The house is small, but if you intend to spend most of your time outside, it's perfect. The house shows it's age in a few areas, but this didn't affect our stay. The A/C kept it nice and cool during some hot humid days. The deck was perfect for morning coffee, watching a storm roll in, hanging out in the evenings, and most importantly private beach access! Most of the surf city shops and restaurants were only a 5 minute drive away. Overall, this was a great spot for a relaxing stay at the beach. We would book it again.

My family and I had a great three night stay. We’ve always wanted to stay right on the ocean and it was so worth it. The house is spacious but still cozy. We travelled with our 8 month old and used the high chair and baby gate. We loved watching the sun come up over the ocean each morning. Emily was communicative and friendly. Would definitely return!

We rented this house for a week to share with our kids and grandkids. It fit our needs perfectly and we had a great time! It was a nice layout for family, a short walk to the beach, a bit farther to the shops but we actually preferred that. We borrowed a golf cart from a friend and rode our bikes so not an issue. The house had all the amenities we needed for a lovely stay. Matt and Shawn were very friendly and responsive to all of our questions. It would have been helpful to have directions for using the elevator before we started unloading the cars. That’s it! It was a memorable week!

Great historic little shotgun beach house about a block from public beach access! Our family had a great time being hosted by Shelly. As I said, this is a great historic little beach house but updated with modern conveniences like central A/C, ceiling fans, etc. The clutter-free venue made it easy to slip into those relaxed beach vibes. We loved the original details like the original doors, wood flooring, etc. Really can't beat the area... a block from public beach access and easily within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and the Carolina Beach Boardwalk. Overall, Shelly was a great host - quick and informative - and offered great accommodations as well as recommendations for the local area. Our family will definitely consider being hosted by Shelly at Eastbound again!

stayed June 7th-14th 2025 and we had a great vacation. house was on the beach and walkable to the resturants and boardwalk. would recommend and stay again.

This is our new favorite place to stay on the NC coast! We had a wonderful, relaxing stay with our family and dogs - total 5 star experience!!

We had a wonderful stay and cannot recommend this home enough! Excellent access to the beach and the home has everything you could need and so much more! Hosts were very easy to communicate with and responded quickly. We would love to come back!

We had the best beach vacation at Kristin’s place. The house was just as described and very well stocked with just about everything we needed for a great stay. The kitchen was one of best for folks like us who cook most meals - plenty of pots and pans, utensils, and lots of dishes. Beds were all super comfy. And the use of the beach towels, chairs, sun shades and toys were WONDERFUL saving us precious packing space in the car. Kristin was very helpful with all my questions. 10 out of 10! Next time we are headed to the beach, this is the first place I will try to book. Thank you!

We really enjoyed the stay! The pool was great, being right on the beach and near the boardwalk was wonderful and Carolina beach wasn’t too crazy! The only thing to be aware of is there are a lot of stairs with this house

We absolutely loved our stay at POSH! Location is incredible and the easiest quick walk to the beach (just across the street is the beach access). House is exactly as described and perfect for family gatherings - multiple fridges and dishwashers. The home was clean and well equipped. The private pool was great as well. Kerry was so responsive and kind. We will absolutely be rebooking this property again!

What an absolutely amazing week at the most amazing house! Drew’s place was exactly as described! Pictures don’t even do it justice! It had everything we needed and more. We had a few questions during the week Andrew was quick to respond and walk us through any instructions we needed or suggestions. The guidebook when we arrived at the House was super helpful with suggestions for restaurants and other activities! The backyard was super enjoyable and the beach is extremely walkable! We did rent a golf cart, and I would suggest doing that as well for everyone because in fact everyone in the town rents a golf cart and that’s the main mode of transportation around the area. We will definitely be looking to stay here again!!

My family and I stayed here for about five days. I have three young boys and the bunk bedroom was absolutely great. We took full advantage of the outdoor pool and golf cart. Jessica was quick to answer any questions we had. Will be recommending to others!

I stayed for a little over a week and it was absolutely phenomenal! Walkable, in my opinion, to everything CB has to offer though would be a farther walk to some. The accommodations were spacious and perfect for what we needed. The outdoor space / pool was awesome, spent a lot of time reading / working out there enjoying the sun. Would definitely stay again for a long visit!

Yall. This was our 3rd year at Carolina beach and this place was by far our favorite!! From the ease of check-in, the hosts’ responsiveness, the cleanliness, it was all perfect! By far, our favorite part of this place was the fenced in backyard with the pool. The pool chairs were comfortable, there was shade from beautiful palm trees at all parts of the day, but also plenty of sun. The pool was clean and perfect. It was an easy walk to a public beach access, like maybe 5 minutes. The kitchen had everything we needed but this place was so close to so many good restaurant options, we didn’t cook a whole lot. It was clean and well kept and BEAUTIFULLY decorated. You could just feel the difference of this being someone’s home. It was well kept and comfortable and had everything we needed for a week at the beach. Thank you Curtis and Michelle! We loved your home!

If you love the beach this is your place!! You really can’t get much closer.The place was clean and stocked with everything you could think off .The outside shower is a game changer for keeping the sand on the beach. We loved sitting on the balcony with our coffee and a perfect view of the ocean .Even though the other half is a separate rental unit it still was very private and never a problem.We discovered Maine Lobster Shack while we there wow!! My husband and I have never stayed at the same place twice, by Wednesday we had decided to book for the following year.Thanks for sharing your home with us . It’s apparent you’ve put a lot of care into it.We love Topsail.

We had the best time!! We were able to bring our boat and park it at the boat dock. I will say if you have a bigger boat I don’t know if you will be able to park there all weekend, but not a far drive at all to a boat ramp. The place was very clean and had all the things you will need! There is even dog toys and a bed! Betsy was super helpful and nice. We will definitely come and stay many more times.

Wow! Loved this sweet, chic beach cottage, very short walk to the beach, where we saw some serious surfing. House is super clean and comfy, and the host thought of everything -- king beds, great kitchen setup, and every beach toy you can imagine. Did a lot of reading and relaxed on the big front porch -- it's on a quiet residential street where you can hear the ocean a block away but lots of birdsong, too. Closer to Kure than Carolina, which we liked. Spent an evening watching the sunset at Fort Fisher and another checking out the historic boardwalk at Carolina Beach. New fave beach rental: we will be back!

Our stay was wonderful! Very close to the beach access & easy to walk to restaurants and back and forth to the beach. The place was the cleanest place we have ever stayed. There was plenty of room for everyone (we had 6 adults and 4 kids) and the place had everything we needed! We would definitely stay again!

This is one of the nicest homes we’ve stayed in! Just a few blocks from the beach and her home is immaculate…Comfortable beds, super clean and all of the amenities one could want.. Definitely recommend!

We loved the hammock house! It was so peaceful and beautiful. It was also very convenient to be able to walk to the beach easily and there were amazing restaurants and plenty to do nearby. We will be back!

Wonderful place! Super close to the beach. The beds were comfortable, I felt right at home. I would stay again!

Nice quiet neighborhood but close to shops/restaurants/beach. Very clean. Felt right at home. Nice, large fenced in backyard. I put my dog on a long lead because she’s very small and curious and I didn’t want her getting under the deck or behind the shed. Beds are comfy!!!
