Oceanview Beach Retreat: Updated & Steps to Beach

Welcome to your dream oceanfront escape in the heart of Carolina Beach! This bright and breezy 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo offers stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean, direct beach access, and everything you need for a relaxing and memorable coastal getaway.

Wake up each morning to the sound of waves crashing just outside your window. The private oceanfront balcony is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or evening glass of wine while soaking in panoramic sunrise views over the water. Whether you're here to relax or explore, this condo makes the ideal home base.

Inside, you’ll find a thoughtfully designed open-concept living space with comfortable seating, a flat-screen smart TV, and large sliding glass door that lets in the ocean breeze. The fully equipped kitchen features all the essentials you’ll need to cook meals at home, including a full-size refrigerator, stove, microwave, coffee maker, and cookware.

Each bedroom is furnished with cozy bedding and storage space. The primary bedroom includes an attached half bathroom and ocean views, while the second bedroom is perfect for kids or additional guests. A second full bathroom offers added convenience.

Step outside and you’re just a few feet from the beach! Spend your days sunbathing, swimming, or strolling the shoreline. When you're ready for a break from the sand, take a dip in the seasonal community pool *closed for season*, open during the warmer months and shared with just a few neighboring units.

This condo is ideally located near the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, known for its nostalgic charm, carnival rides, live music, and Britt’s Donuts—an island icon. Grab dinner at The Fat Pelican or SeaWitch Café, shop at local boutiques, or explore Carolina Beach State Park with its scenic trails and rare Venus flytraps.

For film and TV fans, you’re just a short drive from some of North Carolina’s most iconic filming locations, including scenes from The Summer I Turned Pretty, One Tree Hill, Dawson’s Creek, and more. Wilmington's charming downtown, with its historic riverfront and thriving arts scene, is just 30 minutes away.

Whether you’re traveling as a couple, family, or friends, this oceanfront condo offers a peaceful retreat with unbeatable access to everything Carolina Beach has to offer. Book your stay today and experience the magic of the North Carolina coast!

Please do not forget to leave the parking pass when you vacate the property. Failure to leave the parking pass in the unit upon departure will result in a $100 fee.
