Golden Sands Carolina Beach Oceanfront, Tapestry by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Good location! Easy to walk to the beach, very nice and clean"

Pirates Cove

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed here 10 years ago and they definitely have done some remodeling and decorating stuff...love that there was a tki bar/restaurant on the property that plays live music and has games outside area...also pet friendly with a small dog park...and there is a small but very clean pool with new chairs and loungers out there...very much budget friendly, not all the fancy stuff, but no bug issues, staff helps ASAP, and very close to all the areas shops restaurants, beach, and lake are all within a mile...will always continue to stay here even if I can afford a beachfront fancy hotel, I would still pick here everytime, from 2016 until 2026, it has only gotten better!"

The Sandcastle is four blocks to the beach or the boardwalk!

10/10 Excellent

"We had such a great stay when we were at this beach house last year that we came back for a second time! The host was incredibly welcoming and always quick to respond whenever we had a question. The property was well taken care of and it was especially nice having a private fenced in yard for our dog."

Salt Air Cottage - Private Pool, Dog Friendly, 4 Blocks to Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage is a phenomenal location and the price was excellent. We had everything we needed. The only issue was the code I was sent didn’t work to get into the property. A few phone calls and the property management fixed it quickly. I love the dog friendly approach without having weight limit restrictions. My husband and I needed this vacation as we never had a honeymoon due to obligations for sick family members. This was perfect. A wonderful getaway. We will be booking another stay at the salt air cottage."

Charming 2-bedroom in Carolina Beach walking distance to beach

10/10 Excellent

"This home was immaculate, not a speck of dirt was found anywhere! The host left snacks and drinks for us and we had everything we needed to make meals. Just keep in mind this is a 2nd floor unit, so there are stairs. Also, you can see right through the bathroom window so bring something to drape over the window while you undress. Speaking of windows, there was not even a streak on any of those, that shows how clean this place was. It was so nice that we could bring our old dog with us but that fee was 200, just FYI. We had a blast for our Labor Day stay!"

OCEAN FRONT! SUPER CLEAN - see reviews!!! w/PRIVATE boardwalk beach access!

10/10 Excellent

"It was awesome, just like a beach house should be. The host were super. I will definitely book there again."
