Welcome to The Iron Seahorse Orlop by Carolina Getaway—a charming lower-level 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom beach retreat in the heart of Surf City. Tucked just beneath its stylish upper-level counterpart, this inviting space is ideal for families, couples, or small groups seeking a laid-back coastal escape.

Step inside to a bright and cozy living area, where a plush sofa (that converts to a sleeper) and Smart TV invite you to unwind after a day in the sun. The open layout flows into a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances, ample counter space, and all the essentials for preparing beachside meals. A dining nook offers a casual spot to gather and enjoy your favorite dishes.

The Iron Seahorse Orlop comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests. The primary bedroom features a king bed, while the second bedroom includes a full bed and a twin-over-twin bunk—perfect for kids or friends. A full bathroom with a tub/shower combo serves both bedrooms. Additional sleeping space is available on the living room's sofa sleeper.

Outside, enjoy the shared backyard oasis complete with an outdoor shower for rinsing off sandy toes, a grill and dining area for evening BBQs, and beach gear including chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards to make the most of your time by the ocean.

Located just minutes from Surf City's pristine beaches, local shops, and favorite eateries like Shaka Taco and Daddy Mac's, The Iron Seahorse Orlop offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience. For larger groups, rent both levels of The Iron Seahorse to accommodate up to 20 guests.

Sooo uncomfortable

The king bed and couch are 2 of the most uncomfortable pieces of furniture I have ever been on. The “dining area” is completely useless. The table blocks you from getting in and out to the bench, and the chest is so high you cannot feasibly sit there with your legs under the table. Also this unit at best fits 5 people there is bar seating, dining and a kitchen table. The kitchen was so poorly stocked. Drinkware was lacking.Additionally you hear everything from your upstairs tenants. Just with regular walking you hear it but imagine kids or teenagers running around after bedtime rattling the master bedroom fan. Our feet were also black within a few minutes after checking in. The property manager was however very responsive and had the floors cleaned and communicated with upstairs tenants for us but it didn’t change the noise.
