Weekend getaway

Close location to the beach and plenty of beach accessories to use which we really appreciated! Description and pictures of place are accurate. Close proximity to the boardwalk was nice. We had a slight problem that was quickly fixed the same day. Thank you for allowing us to stay!

Amazing!!

The PERFECT location and a very comfortable spot!! The owners are so helpful and responsive, and although you are not "on the beach", the access is literally steps away! Nice side street that is quiet and so close to everything. I honestly considered not sharing our review so we could keep this gem to ourselves LOL - we had the great stay and will definitely return!!

Perfect spot

This was the perfect spot for staying at the beach without technically staying on the bea ch. We were very close to the beach access, and it was perfect that the house had beach supplies for us to use.

Cozy and convenient

We loved everything about the house and the location. Just steps from the beach was wonderful. The house was well cleaned and fully stocked. The house was so much more than we expected. The host Lisa was very nice and communicated very well. We intend to come back....

Pelicans Loft - Carolina Beach NC

Communication with Management was excellent-Quick responses- Location was great - Beach Chairs, Sunshade, Beach toys all available- Accommodations were as described- Very Clean. Lots of stairs (so be aware) - Parking limited to small or average size vehicles (street parking available but would not recommend with oversized vehicles-tight road passage). Overall - I would recommend the Pelicanā€™s Loft.

Nice house, great location

Our stay was welcomed by great communication leading up to our arrival and throughout our stay. The house was kept very clean and had beach stuff for guest use. Unfortunately due to rain non-stop during the entire trip, some ants came in but the property owners left spray that helped mitigate the issue. They were very responsive in assisting with all questions we had. Each room had a smart TV which was ideal. We enjoyed movie nights, board games and the access to the beach (when it wasn't raining).Overall, we loved our stay and would book again in the future!

Weren't Given the Chance to Check In

Check in is at 4pm. We arrived at the property at 4:15 with zero emails with codes on how to get keys. After speaking with an agent with VRBO, they attempted to call the owner and property manager 2 times before deciding they needed to cancel our reservation due to lack of response from owner. Only book this place if you want to panic about not having somewhere to stay after your long day of travel! Thank goodness we decided at last minute to rent a car, and not get dropped off by a taxi. Of course everywhere in town was sold out, and this completely ruined our vacation.
