Wonderful view

Enough can't be said about hearing the waves crash on the beach while falling asleep. We had a wonderful time at this beach condo. It could use a deep clean and a few updates, but overall was a pleasurable experience.

Great view!

The place was perfect for a couple! The view from the deck was magnificent and felt very private. You are a short walk away from a pier and food/bar. The beach is also just a short walk. The kitchen was stocked with everything that you might want. We make pina coladas with the blender and there was plenty of everything else you could cook with.

Beach Trip 24

The view from the condo and the location were great! The only negative was the condition/cleanliness of the stairwell and deck. Both areas need some attention and updating. Inside the condo was clean and very comfortable. Communication with the host was very timely.

Nice Weekend Getaway

We loved the balcony! The condo was super clean and the bed super comfy. The cable in the living room was greatly appreciated. Just be ready for the three flights of stairs. Slight walk to the beach as there is a rock jetty right in front of the condo. We just sat on the balcony which got sun until mid afternoon. It was lovely!

Right on the Water!

Nice little condo in a fantastic location! We loved sitting on the balcony, listening to the crash of the waves, often watching dolphins swim by. Having no beach directly below us was awesome - we felt like it was a private spot; but a couple minutes walk led us to the beach. We took day trips to Wilmington, Brunswick Town, Fort Fisher, North Carolina battleship, Carolina Beach State Park. Highly recommend!

Great getaway location. Clean, accommodating condo right by the water. Although I did not partake, the bottle of wine and chilled glasses was a delight to see in the fridge. A short but sweet stay! I would go back.

Summer Vibes at CB

You will enjoy the view and the beach vibes at Cake by the Ocean. Listening to the waves, watching the sunrise in the morning, and admiring the surfers in the afternoon while we sat on the balcony was so relaxing. It’s only a 3 minute walk to the beach access where the sand is soft and there’s plenty of space to set up your umbrella and chairs. This condo has everything you need and more to enjoy your stay. Anthony and Kirsten are very quick to respond to messages. We would absolutely stay here again!

Great week at Carolina Beach!

We had a wonderful stay at Anthony and Kirsten’s property! The place was the perfect size for us two adults and our toddler. The location was amazing - we had close access to a very nice stretch of beach that wasn’t as crowded as other locations in Carolina Beach. The view from the patio was gorgeous, and we spent mornings out there drinking coffee and evenings reading. We also loved being so close to the pool. The condo was clean and well-supplied. We cooked in the kitchen pretty much every meal, and this was very easy to do, but Anthony and Kirsten also left great local recommendations. Anthony and Kirsten were friendly and responsive, and wonderful hosts! I would definitely recommend staying here!

About the host

Hosted by Anthony Cunnings

My husband and I have lived in Wilmington, NC for over 15 years, and we LOVE spending time at Carolina Beach! We are avid travelers who love sharing our knowledge of the best things to do or see wherever we go. Huge foodies - if you need any recommendations based on your cravings just say the word. We love walking the beach and enjoy hosting our slice of heaven so others can enjoy the best Carolina Beach has to offer. Being steps away from one of the biggest hot spots on the island at the CB Pier makes any stay a fun one!

Why they chose this property

We love being on the North End of the island. The CB Pier has excellent drinks and food, and always has a fun event going down! It stays a bit quieter on this side which we prefer vs. the business of the boardwalk, but it's nice knowing we are a very short drive (or bike/scooter ride!) to all the fun.

If you are one who prefers the quieter side of your stay with the option to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the island mere minutes away, you will love our spot!

What makes this property unique

We took great care in designing a retro, yet beachy chic vibe for Cake by the Ocean. Every piece of artwork was hand picked, and we strive to make sure our guests have everything they need to enjoy their stay. Our balcony features polywood chairs with a connecting table to enjoy your book or coffee with convenience.

Being on the top floor in a corner unit, you have the BEST panoramic views of the ocean from the bedroom. Additionally, no one above you means no noise coming down as you relax.
