A break before school starts

We had a great time! Great location to beach access, Boardwalk, restaurants, etc. The listing for the condo was just as listed on VRBO. Next time, we may ask to use the elevator (instead of 3 flights of stairs) if elderly family members plan to visit.

Close to everything

Pictures are accurate. I always wonder if the pictures are new and never updated but these were spot on. Parking is a little tight if you have a truck but there is a spare spot off to the side. We were in walking distance to a small lake park with a playground, the boardwalk, and several restaurants. The park was nice on cooler windy days where we could still get outside and let our little one play.

Great location and property

This place was great! I lived in CB for years and was coming back for a visit, and this was a great location for everything. It was very clean, a good size for the price, clean, quiet building, etc. etc. Loved the front porch with view of the ocean. Would recommend.

Beautiful condo and great property owners!

This unit was absolutely beautiful, with a very calming aesthetic and not over the top with beachy decor. It was just the right size for three adults and a kid, and probably could accommodate an extra adult and extra child 🙂 I messaged the property owner a couple of times with questions, and they were very quick to respond and extremely helpful. I'd like to stay here again next time I'm in Carolina Beach!

Very clean comfortable home

We really enjoyed our stay! There were plenty of linens and having a washer & dryer was great! The condo was stocked well with everything we needed and labels on doors and drawers helped to easily find everything. The entrance to the beach was a very short distance from the condo, which was awesome! If we get back to Wilmington, we will definitely stay here again.

This place is great!

We loved staying at Ben's place! The location is great and within walking distance to the boardwalk and plenty of restaurants which is great so you don't have to pay to park places. The place is very clean and well appointed. Lots of spaces which is great. Our favorite part is the deck. There's plenty of space to sit and enjoy your coffee as the sun comes up in the morning or to sip a glass of wine in the evening and talk with your friends or family. Highly recommend and we will be back in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Ben Bradley

Hello! We're Ben and Shannon Bradley, and we're thrilled to be your hosts. We want you to feel at home in our home! So, here's a bit about us to help set a casual tone for your stay:

Ben loves coffee, CrossFit, SCUBA diving, mountain biking, and anything that will spark a good adrenaline rush.

Shannon loves s'mores, yoga, therapeutic massage, boating, and anything that will put her in a state of relaxation.

While we may appear to be an example of the ages-old saying "opposites attract", our strongest loves are shared: going on adventures with our children, sharing a laugh with friends and family, traveling the world, and relaxing at the beach!

Sea Drift 202 is our vacation home, and it holds a special place in our hearts. We're thankful that you chose to stay here, and are happy to share it with you. Have a wonderful time!

Why they chose this property

Our first family vacation with our young boys was to Carolina Beach. We have fond memories of the boardwalk, Ferris wheel and rides, and the town's firework display. Our family has since enjoyed returning to the beach for all the classic beach and boardwalk activities.

What makes this property unique

Carolina Beach has something to offer everyone. Breweries & disc golf, boardwalks & shopping, restaurants & cocktails, scuba diving & other water activities, relaxing spas, and more. Everything you could want on a vacation is close by. We fell in love with the location of this condo because it is a very short walk (even with kids) to the boardwalk and beach access.
