Loved this house. Very clean. Beautiful decor. Plenty of room for our family. Many extra touches (hand soap, tp, bath mats, tissues, dish soap, etc) were much appreciated. Having beach chairs and sand toys was great! We spent a lot of time on the roof watching sunsets. Can’t say enough good things! Hope to return.
This was the nicest beach house we have ever stayed in! The host was extremely responsive to any questions that we had, the house was super clean, and the beach was amazing! We made some wonderful family memories here and hope to return next year!
Everything was perfect. The check in process, location, the house was clean and well organized, and the elevator was very handy. We were very happy with our vacation.
Up on the Roof is a wonderful place to stay in Holden Beach. There is plenty of room inside and out. The kitchen is well stocked; the beds are comfortable and the view is amazing. I would definitely rent this home again.
My family and in-laws had a great stay at Up On the Roof. The house was as advertised, clean, with close proximity to to the beach. The 3rd floor entertainment space has great views of the ocean as does the roof top seating area and decks. The property owner was very responsive and kind. A+
We absolutely loved this property! Large enough but also cozy enough! Had everything we needed and was conveniently right across from private beach access. The roof top views are amazing. I highly recommend and we will be back! I just love Holden.
“Up on the Roof” Is a beautiful home. It is exactly as described and even better than our expectations. It is across the street from the ocean but it feels and sounds like you’re right on the water. The owners were easy to communicate with and check in and out were seamless. My family would love to stay here again.
What a gem of beach home. Beautifully decorated and well taken care of. Kitchen is fully stocked. Lots of family games. Our family enjoyed ping pong tournaments in the evenings. Oh the view! You’ll never forget this house. Thanks to Wendy and Marc for being wonderful hosts!!!!
We had a magical time while at Holden Beach. We were able to let go and have fun because it felt like we were at home with the house Up on the Roof being ready to take in a family. We did not need anything! We didn't have to leave to make trips to the store to get something to make something. We only needed to bring ourselves and clothes. We went shopping for food once when we got there. The shopping for the teens was perfect. The shells were awesome. We made many memories here. Thank you so much for sharing your house with our family. We look forward tk future stays!
Three generations of our family had a wonderful week at Up On The Roof! The house was super clean and fully outfitted in every way. The views from the main living floor of the ocean and shore were ideal. Then there was the rooftop deck which gave 360 degrees view of the whole area plus the night sky which we enjoyed numerous times. Our grandsons are 2 and 5 so the lush grassy backyard was a great place for them to run around and play when we weren't at the beach. Also provided is a full selection of beach chairs, umbrellas, toys and games that we used daily. Wendy and Marc were excellent communicators and helpful in everyway possible which made the stay all the more enjoyable. The property exceeded our expectations which were pretty high going in. We can recommend Up On The Roof without reservation!
This is a wonderful beach property with direct OVs across the street from the beach and beach club where you have access to a pool.
The owners provided prompt communication and answered questions thoroughly. There are 2 restaurants within easy walking distance and a coffee shop/beach rental place easily accessible.
The house is immaculate and has every amenity you need - with a few luxury amenities as well. We appreciated the elevator especially on arrival & departure & for the larger grocery trip. We made use of the grill while enjoying some cornhole challenges. The outdoor shower was excellent & I'd say better than any indoor shower, however the indoor tiled showers were extra special as well. The main floor master shower is as large as a small walk in closet. We used 3 of the 4 bedrooms & all beds were comfortable. We did notice on the king size beds that the sheets provided through the linen service really didn't fit. Maybe the kings are maybe a California King but we ended up not being able to use the fitted sheet.
The main living area provided plenty of seating with the sectional sofa & 2 chairs. The kitchen had plenty utensils, plates, and glasses. The bottom level sitting area was nice too, especially if you are traveling with multiple families. Our favorite space was the covered front porch. We also enjoyed the rooftop for late night stargazing and nightcaps.
When visiting Holden Beach again we will definitely return to this lovely home.
We had our family of our three children and a boyfriend and girlfriend for week stay. The location and home were superb. Not a single amenity we would add. The owners were very gracious in every detail. The views of the ocean and all of the indoor and outside seating wonderful. Great spacious kitchen. Everything was like it is brand new. Can’t say enough good things about our stay.
Great house with lots of stairs, beds are nice. The small mini fridge was great for our drink cold storage. The air condition, washer/dryer was great. Overall great home to stay at.
We enjoyed our stay at Up On The Roof. It was a beautiful home in a great location. We loved the spacious living areas, especially the dining area which allowed our family to sit down and eat together. Easy access to the pool and beach areas were also a plus. And of course the views from the roof were amazing!

We had a perfect vacation at this home. The views were unbelievable and the home had everything we needed and more! Very clean and the kitchen was well equipped. Pool and beach access were very easy. The owners were great to work with and we will be back!
Clean, well furnished, extra special touches like beach chairs and beach canopy. Convenient location on island. Ocean is very close. Roof top deck is really fun.

Awesome Week!
We returned with the whole family for a second year at Up on the Roof. The location and views of the ocean can't be beat! I highly recommend staying at this house.
This property is perfectly located in Holden Beach - great view of the ocean from the 2nd row, beach access is directly across from the property, the beach clubhouse and pool are directly across the street. The home itself is pristine with an open floor plan and the owners are great to work with.
We had an amazing week. The views from the house are great, the house is beautiful and the owners are extremely friendly and very helpful. Will come back.
We had a great week! Our first trip to Holden Beach, can’t wait to come back! The house is beautiful, location is great, and the owners are wonderful! Easy to communicate with, they responded immediately to every question we had. Definitely would recommend to all of our friends!
