Exactly what you are looking for

This is a great place. It must have been recently updated because everything was nice, new and shiny. Nice kitchen with new appliances. The bathrooms were immaculate. Bedrooms were very comfortable. But the first thing you notice is the ocean and beach view from the living room and covered balcony. Absolutely stunning. Easy to find with great parking under the building. Short walk to the boardwalk and the restaurants and shops. I would definitely stay here again.

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!

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.

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!

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!!

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.

Another great week at Beachfront ELM!

This is by far our favorite place to stay when we go to the beach. The condo is spotless, nicely furnished, and well-stocked. Perfect view of the ocean from the deck and living room. The location is great—plenty of good restaurants nearby. And we like Carolina Beach in April. Not at all crowded. This was our 4th year to stay at ELM and we love it!

wonderful condo and location

Such a nice and relaxing condo. Very clean and stocked with laundry detergent, tissue paper, paper towels and hand soap. We did not cook so I cannot comment on the kitchen items, but I did see a Keurig available for use. The most important things to me on reviews are cleanliness and the lack of insects. This condo was excellent on both. No bugs, even in the stairwells. (The stairwells were enclosed, which probably helped with keeping away bugs.) We always see "water bugs" at the beach, but were pleasantly surprised this trip. Highly recommend staying here. Also comfortable outdoor seating and patio lights.

Immaculate condo with a fully stocked kitchen. Conveniently located near the boardwalk and restaurants. We walked to dinner several times during our week in the condo. Even though you're close to boardwalk, the beach was not crowded at all. The view is spectacular. We watched pods of dolphins swim by on a couple of occasions. The owner was quick to respond to our questions. I'd highly recommend this unit.
