4th of July Family Stay

David was very responsive to messages. Check-in directions were emailed 3 days prior and easy to follow. The house was very spacious, well-maintained, and clean. and the kitchen is well stocked with all the essentials plus a Keurig and blender. The house also comes with puzzles and games and a large kitchen table to gather. Public beach access is less than a 5 minute walk to Spartanburg Ave and the Boardwalk area has tons of restaurants, entertainment, and small shops. We watched the Carolina Beach fireworks show from the 2nd floor balcony and rooftop.

Perfect location, even bigger than you think!

This place is huge! Seriously the pictures don’t do it justice. It is in the perfect location, and perfect to have a lot of people (we had 7 adults) that aren’t on top of one another. We had a wedding in Wilmington and it was a short uber ride in. The beach is right down the road, so is a Publix and a bunch of restaurants. We’ve already talked about coming back!

Great beach house!

Rented this beach house for a long weekend family vacation, and it was perfect! Plenty of room for 8 adults and 1 toddler. Rooms were just as pictured, and very clean. Great location and parking also.

The house was great location for the beach. I was disappointed there was so little seating in the living area. Only one sofa didn't accommodate my family. It would also have nice if there had been more dishes and not so heavy

Great house

This was a great house, we enjoyed our stay. It was very well stocked with everything needed in the kitchen, most places don’t do a great job making sure there’s plenty of kitchen items. It was clean and decorated nicely. Another thing that was nice was that we could adjust the thermostat 😂 we stayed at a few places and the owner wouldn’t let us adjust the air so that was quite terrible. It’s also within walking distance of the beach, a few restaurants and an organic coffee place that was really great

Family Vacation

The property was beautiful. The kitchen was very spacious, and we did not feel crowded while we were in there. It was a very short walk to the beach. The bedrooms are all very nice and accommodating. The balcony areas are very nice as well as the other outdoor space with the grill area. The bed or the frame in the first floor guest area off the kitchen needs updated or replaced. Noisy with the slightest movement. The extra beach, chairs, and beach Kurt provided was a nice addition. We would highly recommend this property and would stay here again.We really enjoyed our stay!

Carolina Beach - December 2022

Overall, we had a wonderful stay at Pura Vida in Carolina Beach. The property was well appointed, in a great location, and very clean. The unit looks exactly like the pictures. It worked great for 2 families and the open floor plan of the main living area was a great place to hang out. My only minor complaint is that there was no bar/bath soap supplied (be sure to bring your own) and there was only 1 bath towel per person,

We had a good stay and no complaints about the property. Carolina beach is not very pedestrian/stroller friendly but the short walk to the beach was manageable even with little ones.
