Serenity at the Beach was just perfect for our family! This home was clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. The roof top had picturesque views and the home is perfectly located with the beach, the pier and restaurants in a short walking distance. Carolina beach was a short drive up the strip and gave us even more options of restaurants and family fun. Britts Doughnuts and Celtic Creamery are a must!! Fort Fisher has a stunning natural ocean view and is another must, especially at sunset! That is located right up the other end of the strip as well as the aquarium. This home provided our family another opportunity to make more memories!

We had a great time staying here! Beautiful home. My favorite part was the roof deck that you can hear the ocean from- best place for a sunset! Very quick walk to the beach which was a plus. Would love to stay here again with my family!

Our whole experience was perfect from start to finish. Carolina Beach Realty quickly responded to all inquiries prior to arrival and during our stay. The house was gorgeous, clean, comfortable, and 2 blocks from the beach. It was well stocked with everything needed while away from home. The roof top area was an added bonus we enjoyed every evening. We will definitely visit a Carolina Beach Reality property again the future.
