Our condo, affectionately named “Beachfront ELM,” serves as our personal sanctuary and getaway. Nestled on the 2nd floor, it offers unobstructed views of the ocean and beach from its private, covered deck. Beachfront ELM boasts an impressive 1,067 square feet (includes two decks) designed to provide comfort, relaxation, and everything you need for a wonderful family vacation or a romantic beach getaway. Our condo sleeps 5 with beds consisting of 1 king bed in the primary bedroom, 2 twin beds in the guest bedroom, and 1 chair sleeper twin size in living room.

The beach in front of our building is typically quiet and uncrowded providing a peaceful retreat. Conveniently located within a 5-10 minute walk, you’ll find shops, activities, restaurants, and the boardwalk. And the best part? Less than a 1 minute walk from the building takes you directly to the beach, where you can soak up the sun and feel the sand between your toes.

Rain or shine, you can enjoy the outdoors from the covered oceanfront deck. You will be treated to breathtaking panoramic and unobstructed views of the Atlantic Ocean, the soothing sound of waves crashing on the beach, the playful antics of dolphins in the surf, and the stunning sunrises all come into view, creating a truly unforgettable experience. Don’t forget to bring your binoculars to get a closer look at those dolphins!

Please note: This property cannot accommodate charging of electric golf carts, low-speed vehicles, cars, or trucks.

Carolina Beach, nestled along Pleasure Island with Kure Beach and Fort Fisher, offers a plethora of excellent dining options, specialty retail shops, drug stores, full-service grocery stores, beach rentals (including bikes, linens, beach umbrellas, and beach chairs), ice cream parlors, charter cruises, the North Carolina Aquarium, the Island Greenway, Carolina Beach State Park, Carolina Beach Lake, amusement rides, and a wide range of sporting activities suitable for the entire family.

During the summer, the Boardwalk comes alive with FREE live music, beach bingo, and fireworks. On Sundays, the Carolina Beach Lake transforms into a cinema under the stars, featuring FREE movies on a large outdoor screen. Bring your chairs, snacks, and beverages to enjoy a memorable evening under the stars.

When you are ready to explore, our condo is conveniently located just a short drive away from the bustling port city of Wilmington. Here, you’ll find a vibrant shopping scene, a diverse culinary landscape, and the historic downtown district, brimming with intriguing sites and experiences. Wilmington is renowned for hosting the North Carolina Azalea Festival in April, which features live musical and theatrical performances, garden and historic home tours, outdoor activities, delectable food, and unique crafts.

Beyond Wilmington, the surrounding areas and beaches have become a sought-after destination for Hollywood film directors, serving as prime locations for movie and TV productions. You never know who you might encounter amidst the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. I’ve personally had the pleasure of meeting several Hollywood stars.

In the Fort Fisher area, you can visit the award-winning aquarium or take a ferry across the Cape Fear River to the charming town of Southport. Southport is a shopper’s paradise, offering a variety of shops and restaurants. For history enthusiasts, the recently renovated Fort Fisher Museum is a must-visit, showcasing artifacts from the American Civil War.

With its prime beachfront location, thoughtful amenities, and proximity to the area's top attractions, our beach home, Beachfront ELM, can be the perfect haven for your Carolina Beach getaway. Escape the everyday and immerse yourself in the coastal charm of this remarkable destination.

Amazing Condo

This is our third year staying with Emily. Her condo is amazing! With tropical storm Debby coming through, we didn’t get to spend a lot of time on the beach, but could still enjoy ocean views from her condo. Her kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook. Emily was great checking in on us to make sure we were doing ok! Looking forward to staying with her again!!

Wonderful Experience

Property was clean and well maintained, great location with easy access to the beach and short walk to town attractions. Enjoyed ocean front view from balcony. Only negative was what sounded like someone running back and forth in the unit above various times throughout the day and night. This was a minor annoyance and didn't detract from our overall experience. We will definitely consider this for future stays.

Beachfront Elm

This beachfront condo exceeded our expectations in every way. The location is perfect in relation to the beach, boardwalk, restaurants, and shopping. The amenities provided were such a nice touch too. The condo was spotless, the new kitchen is beautiful, and the beds are so comfortable. Emily is a fabulous hostess and was very quick with responding to any questions. She checked in with us shortly after we arrived to make sure everything was perfect, and it was!!!! There are so many personal touches to this home that really made us feel comfortable.

This is an awesome condo. It is in a fantastic location on the beach and near restaurants (as well as nearby cities to visit). You can see the ocean from the balcony, living room & kitchen. All the appliances, cookware & dishes are the nicest. The beds are comfortable, and there is access to a wonderful listing of TV programs & movies. All the information is listed in the condo on how to use the TV, condo & beach rules. The owners are nice, informative & available. "We loved it"

Amazing view, well-equipped, great location right on the beach!

Fantastic weekend for our girls’ getaway. The view was amazing! The convenience of being right on the beach allowed us to pop in quickly to grab extra drinks, food or restroom beaks. And when the wind kicked up too much and the sand was flying, we simply moved to the pool and enjoyed it, too. We all slept wonderfully on great mattresses! The living room furniture was comfy, as well. The decor was nicely done, the appliances are newer and everything was very clean. We never went out to eat, except to grab a doughnut at Britt’s…a must have! The kitchen is well-equipped with quality cookware, cutlery, etc…all you could need. Two coffee pots, too. We enjoyed having dinner on the balcony and listening to the waves. It’s good for the soul. The communication was excellent with Emily. She seemed to really care about our trip and checked to make sure we were settled and had all we needed. She went above and beyond to make our weekend fabulous. I will definitely stay here again and give this rental a 10/10, hands down! Highly recommended! Thank you for sharing your beautiful place with us!

This condo is wonderful and exceeded my expectations! Had everything we needed and check in was easy. Emily was quick to respond to any questions I had. Very clean with comfortable beds. The easy access to the beach made our trip enjoyable with 2 little kids and we spent the majority of our time in the sand and waves and having most of our meals on the balcony with a spectacular view. What could be better than that!

An amazing stay at Beachfront ELM

We had an amazing stay at Beachfront ELM. The oceanfront view was breathtaking, the home was super clean, trendy and very well decorated. The private beach access was so close to the property that I let our 9-year-old run to our tent on the beach by herself. The Carolina beach boardwalk was within walking distance that we spent both our nights there for food and ride. In addition to the great view of the ocean, to our surprise, the sunrise from the balcony is nothing short of spectacular! Around 6:30 on Sunday morning, I saw my wife sitting on the balcony reading a book with illuminating sunrise over the ocean waves in the background, you can’t ask for a better picture than this. Emily was a great host, she checked on us throughout our stay to make sure we didn’t have any issues. Great vacation home!

Great Place to stay!

Beachfront Elm was immaculate and beautifully decorated! I can be a bit of a neat freak and this place met my high standards of cleanliness! The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could need. The condo was very spacious. Our family of five enjoyed the large deck and beautiful view. The boardwalk was a quick ten minute walk away. We also enjoyed the pool that we mostly had to ourselves. We will definitely return!

Great Stay in Carolina Beach!

This property was amazing! It was extremely comfortable for the four of us (two couples). It was clean and well-stocked for cooking. The washer and dryer was a great bonus! The living area was large and spacious, with comfy furniture and a good-sized dining area. The balcony was ALSO very spacious with good seating, and the view of the ocean was great. Emily was very communicative and patient with my questions. I would recommend this property without hesitation, and would DEFINITELY stay there in the future!

Very Nice Condo

This property was very clean; and by appearance, recently renovated. The owner has obviously taken quite good care of this condo. Appliances were in good condition and also appeared new. Furniture was comfortable; the 2 bathrooms very clean.The beds were quite comfortable. Having said all this, the unit’s best asset is the amazing view of the ocean from the living room area and the outside deck. Access to the beach was very easy.
