About this property

Elegant beachfront escape with private boardwalk, free WiFi, & furnished balcony

  • New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.

    There is nothing quite like waking up to the salty breeze and endless ocean views, so treat yourself to an unforgettable getaway to Carolina Beach and make Paradise Island Ocean Front your next home-away-from-home. With your own brand new boardwalk leading to the sand, you will have no delay in getting your fill of sweet sunshine and crashing waves mere steps from your back door. Plus, this gem is within walking distance of Carolina Lake, shopping, restaurants, and so much more.

    When you find yourself heading back home from a beach day, rinse off sandy toes in the outdoor shower and head into the airy layout of the main level to whip up a tasty meal in the full kitchen. With bar seating, beautiful countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an abundance of cookware, you should have no trouble preparing your favorite recipes in no time. Not to mention, the rest of the gang will love relaxing in the living room complete with a large flatscreen TV, a gas fireplace, and access to the furnished balcony for a sunset cocktail.

    There is truly no place like Carolina Beach, so book your stay while this rare gem lasts!

Great spot

Great location, common space, and would be ideal for large groups! We enjoyed the easy beach access and the beautiful views. The kitchen is lovely. If you absolutely need an elevator for your stay - this one seems to have a history of not always operating. Check in was challenging, but we made it in with a garage code.

Can’t beat the beach!

Perfect vacation spot for our family. Kitchen could be better stocked, a few more cooking spices and towels would help. Very clean except for washer, but they sent someone to take care of that. Overall great! Can’t beat the location!

Friends MLK Weekend

Great house, very clean. Beach was beautiful! Kitchen could have had a bigger pot, and coffee pot didn’t work but manager came over very quickly with a new one. Comfortable for games and watching tv. Fun weekend!

Perfect Location

Herons Hideaway is lovely. The views and location are fantastic. It was furnished comfortably and decorated nicely. The decks were all three a good size with really nice Polywood chairs! It was clean and they had “starter packs” of soap, paper towels, dishwasher tabs, laundry detergent. One of the things they didn’t REQUIRE, as many do, is to empty the trash, start the dishwasher, and start a load of laundry. (We did, but it was nice not to HAVE to). The beds were comfortable; the towels and sheets that were supplied were nice and clean. Overall, would recommend. We had three Octogenarians with us, so the elevator was a must.

Yes it was very welcoming and ready for us when we arrived. It was everything that we expected and had a memorable time as a family. Only issue was with the elevator but the repairman showed us what to do when it quit on us. Just needs some usual maintenance upkeep.

Comfortable beds, beach front, and good communication. We wish the thermostat would go lower than 70, but we were there in October, so it wasn't too bad. We enjoyed our stay.
