Holden Beach is a part of a barrier island chain located along the southeastern coast of NC. It is one of the best rated, least crowded, and most beautiful family beaches found.

Okay

Good stay. House is nice. Would have been nice to have windows that opened to let in the ocean air and the blinds inside the window diminished the view. Made it feel like you weren’t on the ocean at all. Kitchen sparsely supplied, but enough to make do. It was nicely decorated and a walk out the door to the beach which was nice.

Great accommodations

The property was beautifully decorated I love all the bright happy colors. Very easy walk to the beach right out our back door. We had a little trouble with the air conditioner and the maintenance crew were there quickly and fulford Electric had us back in business in no time I was very impressed

Beautiful vacation spot

This house was awesome for our week vacation. The views of the ocean are gorgeous and it was relaxing to fall asleep to the sound of the waves hitting the beach. Communication with the owner was simple and easy. I would definitely think about staying here again!

First Time in Holden

This was our first time in Holden and this cute little rainbow cottage was a delight. It is an older home with its peccadilloes so I think it is important to not have expectations that overshoot what the home is capable of meeting- we were very comfortable and there was nothing that was really bothersome to us at all. The location was perfection and the property management was very communicative. Truly no complaints and we look forward to coming again!

Very cute beach cottage

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our vacation at Holden Beach while staying in this beach cottage. We loved how each room of the home was decorated with a beach theme. The property manager was very prompt and professional answering our questions prior to our vacation. We look forward to staying at this property again in the near future.

It’s ocean front and beach access is a breeze. Not too crowded at all. South facing so good all day sun.

Furniture needs to be replaced.

The house itself was ok except no covered area to sit under outside and you really couldn't look straight out from house and see the beach and the waves due to the dunes. Our biggest complaint, though is the beds and the furniture. We tried the king size bed and the queen size and they were both awful! Worst sleep ever on a vacation! The couches and chairs in the living room were equally awful! We had a horribly time due to being sore and tired from trying to sleep. Never so glad to be home from our vacation.

Perfect for Relaxing!

This property was perfect for my friend and I to have our annual ‘girls’ week where we can just relax and enjoy the beach/ocean atmosphere. House was clean…and we received prompt replies for any questions we had.

Had a great time but....

We had a great stay at Holden Beach. I love the house is ocean front! There's a few things I didn't enjoy about the house itself. There isn't access to the beach from the front of the house, you have to go through the house to the back porch (ocean side). This makes it hard for items you don't want to carry through the house like beach chairs, coolers, etc. The luggage elevator did not work so we had to carry very heavy items up the stairs. The back porch (ocean side) is not covered which is fine but owner could at least provide an umbrella for the table. We found the back porch (ocean side) lights didn't work at all so it was hard to see. There is water damage on a few of the bedroom walls. There isn't overhead lights in the bedrooms only lamps. That was fine but we found we couldn't turn the lamps off without unplugging them from the wall. Both bathrooms/ showers are very small. The washer and dryer are in the bottom of the house, no access to them from inside the house. This is a cute house but needs some upgrades.

Fantastic beach front cottage!

Beautiful, beachy place directly on the ocean with a big deck facing the water that affords fantastic views. Had a hurricane approach during my stay and the property manager was extremely helpful in communicating useful information and offering help. Great place! Highly recommend.
