About this property

BaDaBing | Steps to the Pool + Beach!

This comfortable and stylishly remodeled 2 bedroom/2 bath beachfront condo is on the first floor of a well maintained 24 unit complex. It is, literally, steps from the pool and the beach. Very few stairs to climb and no need to even put on your flip-flops.

The living area features contemporary furnishings including a queen size sleeper/sofa, 42” flat-screen TV with DVD player, small ipod/MP3 docking station, and a photo-faux fireplace.

Sculpted glass French doors leading to the master bedroom provide privacy while filling the room with light. This room has a king-sized bed and 22' television. The master bath has been completely remodeled with fashion plumbing and a custom tile double shower. A touch of cleanly decadence.

The second bedroom has 1 double and 1 twin bed. The guest bath has also been renovated and features a tub/shower combo, tile floor, wainscoting, and updated vanity & toilet.

The private patio can be accessed from either the master bedroom or the living room. Four bar-height eucalyptus deck chairs make for comfortable seating while you take in the views of the dunes, Inter-coastal Waterway, and listen to the crashing waves.

The kitchen has also been completely refurbished with new counter tops, floors, lighting, glass tile backsplash, fresh paint, and a bar-height table big enough to seat six for dining or games. It is fully equipped with everything you will need from a coffee maker in the morning to a blender in the evening.

There is free WIFI and on-site washer/dryer for your convenience. Central heat/air promise year round comfort. Sorry, but our condo association does NOT allow pets, and there is NO SMOKING.

Along with sand and surf, Carolina Beach offers a wide variety of family fun! The picturesque beach boardwalk is only ½ mile from the condo. It is the perfect place to find beach rentals, bikes, golf carts, bars & restaurants, and gift shops. During the summer months there are even amusement rides and games. Around the corner are the docks with party boats and no shortage of charter fishing boats to make your angling dreams come true. A few blocks to the north is Freeman Park where you can drive on the wide-open beach for a private sunning spot or a night-time bonfire. 4x4s are required.

A short drive to the south end of the island brings you to Ft. Fisher, the site of one of the last battles of the Civil War and the North Carolina Aquarium at Ft. Fisher where you can get up close to sharks, loggerhead turtles, and Luna - the rare albino alligator. Just beyond that you can catch the car ferry across the mouth of the Cape Fear River to the quaint town of Southport with even more shopping, restaurants, galleries, and fun.

Thirty minutes inland is the charming downtown area of Wilmington, NC. Set on the banks of the Cape Fear River, an easy stroll along the river boardwalk takes you to boutiques, restaurants, and antebellum homes. Enjoy a horse-drawn carriage tour, then take the short drive across the drawbridge to visit the USS North Carolina - the WWII era battleship moored permanently within view of downtown.

Come enjoy a little slice of beach heaven!!

Short Family Vacation

The property was exactly how it is listed. I loved that it was on the 1st floor and right at the pool. I will definitely book again.

Beach vacation

We enjoyed our stay at Bada Bing And it suited our needs quite well. We don’t do much cooking when on vacation so the kitchen was perfect size for us though we did do one big dinner. Loved being on the ground floor. The pool was nice. If you have a large vehicle you won’t be able to park in the spot closest to the condo and will have to go to the extra parking across the street but our Jeep for just fine.

Wonderful Condo!

Not only is the location great, but the condo was spacious. The pool is directly across the walkway from the condo, as well. Two parking passes were included. There is a market super close for those little things you need to pick up, like ice. One thing that really helped was the bunk beds- this way our kids didn’t have to share a bed! Kitchen was very well-equipped. Check-out expectations were reasonable.

Charming Spot

This condo was a great spot for us and our grandsons. The master bed was comfortable. The bunk beds rattled with movement perfect for kids. I couldn’t have slept there. There were lots of dishes and cooking supplies. Couple notes, no storage for food, no ice maker need to use ice cube trays. Very convenient location getting to beach. Loved outside shower and pool. You could hear footsteps above but not terrible. We will definitely stay here again.

Awesome Property...but

We have stayed here several times over the years. I have noticed since it is no longer rented straight from the owner the cleanliness has changed. Some of the wood floor in the kitchen is loose, esp. at the front door. The carpet needs replacing or a VERY deep cleaning. There is not enough cooking utensils ( maybe people at tasking them when they leave)? There is a pizza pan but no pizza utter. The bedroom door to master does not lock & faceplates are falling off in the Master. It just needs a little tweet. Like I said we have stayed here several times over the years but this time was not what we are used to here.

First ….. and last time !

Initially check in was easy but after getting into the unit and unpacking we noticed that the door did not lock properly and the door jam was busted. After calling and finally getting in touch with someone we found out the door had been broken into weeks earlier and never fixed. The staff tried to get us to stay in the unit with a door that would not lock but that was not happening !! After speaking with the rental company we were able to get another unit in the same building. The new unit initially appeared good but then we saw that the table leg was broken, the handle to the door going to the deck was barely hanging on and the WiFi didn’t work for 3 days. The staff we spoke to were friendly but honestly didn’t seem too concerned about the issues. While the unit was in a great location I personally will not return because of the unit issues and lack of concern by the staff.

Great Condo!

The check in and check out were very easy! The condo was very nice with everything you could need for your stay! The pool and laundry room are right across from you on the first floor! As well as a covered porch to listen to waves crash! And you are steps from the beach! I would highly recommend this place and will definitely stay here again!

Wonderful destination

The property was amazing and beautifully decorated. It had everything we needed and was just steps away from the beach. The beach was clean and a delight to sit on or walk down. The boardwalk was a short drive or a lazy 20 minute walk down the beach. So many restaurants to choose from within a short distance. We love this condo and hope to visit again soon. (Only downside was the neighbor who is a permanent resident who complained to us about various minute things including our service dog! Nothing you can do about that but smile. Definitely well worth staying here. )

Clean, comfortable, and convenient

The apartment is clean and the amenities are sufficient. It is a corner apartment on the first floor with only a few steps to enter. It’s location on the oceanfront property is easily accessible, but being on the first floor does not provide an ocean view; the spacious balcony, however, is open , allowing ocean breezes.

Great stay!

We enjoyed our time here. Check in couldn't have been easier. The condo was beautiful and clean with a fully stocked kitchen. Laundry room and pool just a few steps away from the front door. Easy access to the beach which wasn't busy during our say (second week of June). Close to the boardwalk and many shops and restaurants. I had a question about the check out instructions and my text was answered very quickly. Ladies at the carolina rentals where you pick up parking pass are super nice! We can't wait to stay again!

Great place

Although it was a little small for 2 adults and 4 teenagers, we made it work. This place was very clean and had everything we needed. Super short walk to the beach and just a 20 min walk or 5 min bike ride to the boardwalk which was convenient. Would rent again!
