We really enjoyed our time at the Salt Air Cottage! You truly cannot beat the location, the small pool in the backyard was perfect for the kids to enjoy, and the beds were super comfy! We had a few bumps along the way, but the host was great at getting things taken care of in a timely manner. We would absolutely come back and stay here again when visiting Carolina Beach!

This is a very spacious place on a quiet street and super convenient to most everything in CB. Plenty of parking for our two vehicles and one golf cart outside as well. The pool is small but a nice to have amenity for cooling off in the afternoons. The kitchen was pretty well stocked for most things we needed and had plenty of room for moving around. Now for a few things that could be improved: The lighting in the kitchen could really use some brighter task lighting above the island as well as a brighter fixture above the dining table. The lighting over the range was not working and we put in a request as soon as we got there and a guy came by the next day and said he would “be back tomorrow” to fix it but never came. The base on the large umbrella at the pool was broken so we never got to use it. The trash and recycling get picked up on Tuesday even tho the book in the house says Monday so be aware of that you may not have a lot of space in the bin at first. The place was very clean when we checked it despite them leaving some linens on the laundry room floor which they came and picked up next day. Overall it was a great stay and a very fun filled week at the beach!

Nice house and location. Just needs a little TLC for the price (air in bike tires, cleaner pool and working pool light, broken sink drain, etc.) Property management was prompt in communication but maintenance team for bikes never showed.

The house was the perfect size and enough beds for everyone. The kids room had a tv, video games and board games, which was really nice. The kitchen was also nice and well stocked. The master bathroom toilet was broken and after the maintenance man came to look at it, he never returned or fixed it so 1 toilet for 8 people was tricky. The outside umbrella at the pool fell over twice, luckily we weren’t in the pool when it happened. I expected more for the price we paid but it was clean and sufficient for our family.

The house is good for a group. A primary bedroom with a king and bathroom. 2 bedrooms with queens and a bunk room and another bathroom. The open living room/kitchen/ dining would be good for a large family. The kitchen is well stocked with coffee supplies. The backyard has a small pool but is a little worn. The property is a 12 minute walk to the beach and the street is quietUnfortunately all three of us had violent allergic reactions after three nights - perhaps due to the carpeting in the bedrooms- and we had to leave
