The biggest strength of this property is absolutely its location and view. Fantastic A/C and shower has great water pressure. It's in a very quiet part of Carolina Beach, with a small bar located in close walking distance. You'll have access to the condo pool and the little footwash nearby, which is a great way to keep sand off your feet and out of the unit. Unit was spotless upon checkin.
If you are a bit squeamish about cleanliness in rentals, you'll be pleased to see all of the towels come packaged from the cleaning company so you know they're fresh.
However, if you like to sleep past 8AM, you are not going to have a good time. This is the perfect beach to watch the sun rise on, so it didn't bother me. However, the bedroom gets incredibly bright and hot very early in the morning, especially with the hostile shade of orange the room is painted in reflecting off itself. Blackout shades would go a long way for future renters who don't get up before the sun.
Also, the check in instructions did not include the SECOND code needed upon entry, so please update the instructions to include that and/or make it more clear in the instructions.
As a prior review noted, the water does have a bit of a sulfuric smell given you're in a coastal community, but I'm pleased to report it doesn't transfer to your hair or skin so you only notice it when you first turn on the water. Even if you've got a great sense of smell like I do, it's really not a problem.
