The penthouse checked all of our boxes for location, bedrooms, bathrooms, living space and price. Traveling with kids, teens and adults we needed a place that would keep all parties happy and comfortable for a week. Very pleased to say the penthouse passed with flying colors. Very easy beach access, short walks to many restaurants and the boardwalk. Christine was very easy to communicate with during the booking process. I really appreciated her simple directions to make check-in and check-out smooth. If you are traveling to Carolina Beach for a family vacation the penthouse should be at the top of your list! ##### Ira B. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Mike T. 19 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great spot on Carolina Beach As if any review there are always pros and cons… Starting with the pros - The condo is in a great spot or Carolina beach and very close to the beach itself. The owner was very quick to reply and explained the rules / supplied all needed information in good advance. The condo itself was nice and clean and also had a nice porch with a view (after all it is the top floor!). And parking can accommodate two cars covered which was nice as well. A couple of cons which may or may not be important to some but it’s always worth mentioning for those considering this property - The master bedroom bed was extremely uncomfortable, and if you moved at all, you had loud sounds from the box spring. Additionally, (and I understand the reasoning) the pillows provided had a protectant cover on them which made a “crinkle” sound when moving around. It also made sleeping on them a little hotter than your typical pillow. I would recommend to bring your own. The only other con is regarding the elevator. While the description mentions an elevator in the property, expect to only use for loading/unloading. If you don’t follow the directions exactly, it leads to the elevator not working and a $500 fee to fix it. Based on all the warning stickers, you also need someone to assist who isn’t taking the elevator to close the outside door after the people riding properly close the according door. For most, this isn’t an issue, but we had elderly people who just had back and knee surgery so that lead to a little disappointment. Overall, I’m sure most folks would love this place! For me, a couple tweaks and it would be 5 stars. ##### Mike T.

The Penthouse was perfect for our needs...three generations. Close to beach, views of water from front and back, plenty of spacious comfort, and an elevator to accommodate the grandparents. So many things within walking distance for the younger folks. Christina was a blessing to work with as we had to juggle our plans and she worked with us. It was great. ##### Patti C. Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jane C. 25 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A great time was had by all! The Penthouse was not only a wonderful place to stay but the location could not be beat. From our temporary home we were able to be at the beach and/or boardwalk in minutes. And when we were 'home' our views of the ocean and canal were perfect. We were even treated to mother nature's own fireworks while sitting out on the porch watching the lightening storm in the distance. There were six of us. Each pair had their own room and bathroom making things very easy on all of us. We played games, watched movies, made simple meals and snacks, and just plain enjoyed being with each other. In short, we loved the Penthouse and would certainly consider it again if we go back to Carolina Beach. Thank you to Christine for opening your place to us. The welcome bottle of wine was a sweet touch and very much appreciated. If you are considering time at Carolina Beach, a stay here would be a great choice. ##### Jane C.

The place was very clean and spacious. It is walking distance to many restaurants and an easy one minute walk to the beach with plenty of space on the beach to put up a tent or parasol. The faucet to rinse off outside on the ground level was very convenient when coming back from the beach. Overall, the condo exceeded our expectations! ##### Lauriane G. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angie R. 23 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Angie R.
