A Lovely Stay!

Carolina Can was perfect for our group! It had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We loved being so close to the boardwalk to get to the beach and the view from the top balcony was stunning. Heather was pleasant, accommodating, and very easy to communicate with! Thanks for helping us make lasting memories in Atlantic Beach!

Annual Atlantic Beach Vacation

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely property. It is on a quiet stretch of AB just like we like it! It has great views of the ocean and beach from the upper deck and dining/seating area. It is only a short walk to access the beach. Highly recommended!!

Perfectly clean and the best location

We stayed here for a long weekend, and it was perfect. We stayed with another family, five kids 8 and under between us. The layout of the house was perfect- with plenty of room for everyone. The home was so clean and had everything we could possibly need. The beach access was close, and the views from the third floor balcony were nice. We hope to stay there again soon!

Wonderful home!

The home was beautiful and matched the description on vrbo. We really enjoyed the location... the street is not a through street, and there are two beach entrances within a block. We were there with one other family, and it was great to have two master bedrooms.

Easy access to beach. Great beach chairs provided by owner, end of a street so minimal traffic. We had a boat over at Anchorage marina so very convenient for us. Worked great for family of 8 with bed to spare. Elevator was a plus.

The house and location were excellent. The problem was the weather for two weeks. The worst in over thirty years of vacationing there. Something that no one can control. Made our vacation very disappointing.

Wonderful home. Worked great for 3 families to stay. Places to visit, places to work, places to be alone. Close walk to beach. Kitchen had everything we needed and things we didn’t know we would want. Plenty of bathrooms. Elevator was a life saver for unloading and loading. Beach was lovely. Would recommend to others.

Loved it!

The location of this property is ideal for a family vacation at the beach. It is nicely and comfortably furnished, adequately equipped, with a beautiful view and a very short walk to the ocean. With the oldest of our ages in the 70s, the elevator was especially appreciated, and the youngest loved being next to push the buttons! The owner was responsive in a very timely manner. Our family has vacationed on this street for decades and found this to be a very enjoyable experience. We'd love to vacation here again.

Beautiful Atlantic Beach vacation!

Heather's "Carolina Can" house is beautiful and the location is ideal--just a short walk (about 3 minutes) to a wonderful, quiet stretch of Atlantic Beach. The double-decker porch was wonderful and the ocean view amazing! Although we brought almost everything we would need for the week, there were so many extras already available--beach chairs, beach towels, boogie boards and a small surf board, and sunscreen if you forgot your own! There was hand soap in every bathroom and laundry detergent in the auto-dispensing washing machine. I cannot think of a detail that was overlooked. We enjoyed a great week!

Carolina Can Review

The location and beach house were wonderful. We’ve been staying oceanfront on Club Colony Drive for the past 10 years but The view is better at Carolina Can!! The house had all of the necessary appointments and many extras like a working gas grill and beach chairs. The outside areas and parking were exceptional and the elevator made unloading and loading a breeze! The only downside was the bottom level bedroom which had no closet space or clothes bars to hang items on, no bedside lighting as there was no outlet on that wall and the TV had no reception. Otherwise the Carolina Can was a wonderful vacation spot for our family and we hope to return there for many years to come. Thanks for making it so special.

Great location, but roach problem with no reply for days from owner. The tropical storm came in and owner didnt reach out to see if we needed anything or to check that we were ok. Left a day early due to power outage. No offer to refund or make any accommodation for these issues.

Host profile image
We purchased this home in early 2019 but our ties to North Carolina and Atlantic Beach run deep. We fell in love with AB 20 years ago when our parents purchased a home here. We’ve traveled to the beach at least once a year every year since. It's a wonderful family friendly vacation spot!
