I really enjoyed staying at the apartment. A couple of comments for others. It is on 3rd floor - up 41 steps. And the kitchen is quite small with a very old dishwasher. The sound of the waves crashing on the rocks is quite loud. I liked it but my wife prefers a bit more quiet. Having noted these points, I would say again really enjoyed our stay there - walking the beach and visiting other nearby beaches.
We had the best time staying here! Close enough to walk to everything but far enough from the boardwalk there is privacy! Check in and check out was seamless. The hosts were more than accommodating for a last minute change in our stay! We will definitely be back!
The property was as advertised. The views were amazing! We could even see the fireworks on the boardwalk. The property owners were very responsive when contacted. There was a small check in delay which was out of the ownerâs control. The owners went above and beyond to make it right. Thank you so much for a great stay. Our family would definitely stay again.
The condo was very clean, and decorated nicely. It has a 60's surfer vibe decor. The record player was really cool to show the kids, and we listened to some vinyls from which there was a good selection!
Well we were very exhausted from carrying luggage and food up three stories. That would have been overlooked if the property had been in good condition. The front door needs to be replaced. We were worried because there was dust built up on the vents. When we were taking a shower there was a large spider in the shower curtains that frightened my friend pretty bad. There was an opening under the doors a mouse could crawl under. It had been awhile since I lived in Carolina beach and I wasnât aware that a section of the beach had eroded and a huge rock jetty was built to protect the property so there was not easy access but it wasnât far. It just made the areas where you could access the beach more crowded. The condo next door had a foreclosure sign on it and there were cobwebs on the door. The views of the sunrise were spectacular and definitely our favorite thing about the condo that we liked.
This was our second time staying at Cake by the Ocean! The unit has an oceanfront view like none other. The owners and unit provide everything you need for a great stay!
We had an amazing stay! We made a quick trip down, 3 night stay, and wished we could have stayed longer. You can hear the waves crashing while laying in bed. Itâs so relaxing! Such a cute place with an amazing 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.
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.
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.
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!
Great location for sun rises and ocean waves. Well appointed and comfortable. Only complaint is that dishwasher needs to be replaced..failed to accurately clean dishes and full of rust.
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!
