Beach bungalow at pistachio: one block from the beach and Tiki bar
This charming bungalow is steps away from the beach access at the Ocean Grill Tiki. You can hear the ocean from the screened in porch out back or out front on a huge deck with picnic table. One block from the ocean, this house has been completely renovated yet still has the cottage nostalgia when it was a barracks. There is plenty of outdoor living space as well as a yard perfect for corn hole, grilling out or enjoying your family and friends in the privacy of the back yard (fence). Fully remodeled in 2020 (new floors, new decks, bathroom and kitchen with a screened in porch addition), this house is perfect for up to six people. There is enough room in the driveway to bring your boat or park three cars.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Great location, short walk to the beach with easy access! It had everything we needed to feel at home and enjoy our time. House was super clean. Unfortunately it rained alot of the time we were there, but we definitely loved the place, and will be making plans to return.
Great location… to beach and the Tiki bar! House was clean, well supplied. Love the decor. Easy to communicate with host. Definitely recommend. Would come again.
We came down to Carolina Beach and stayed in celebration of our daughter's birthday...Let me just say this little bungalow is adorable!!! All the amenities you could possibly need!!! Even had a pier cart in the out building we took fishing on Kure Beach Pier!!! 10 out of 10 would recommend. We are talking about staying once a year now we had such a great experience!!!
Great spot for our Labor Day weekend trip; just a block from the beach! My kids loved having their own room and we all appreciated the included linens and beach supplies! Perfect spot for a family trip; would definitely recommend!
The host was responsive and helpful. This property was an easy couple minutes walk to the beach and tiki bar. We had perfect weather and were able to enjoy the screened in back porch and outside shower. The bathroom and main living area is on the small side. This property is a great choice if the beach is your main destination and you're not looking for the house to be the main hangout place. They are also starting construction on a home in front of the property. We would highly recommend taking the car ferry to Southport!
We really enjoyed our stay at the pistachio bungalow! Good distance to the beach and restaurants. We enjoyed the outdoor space and the beach chairs and wagon were very helpful!

It’s was perfect for our family. Loved that it was so close to the beach and restaurants. The house was clean and neat. Would love to stay there again.
The home was cute and charming. I loved the porch sitting areas both front and back. It was really nice to cook breakfast and sit on the back porch to enjoy breakfast. Location to the beach was perfect and the provided chairs and cart were a blessing.
My family and I enjoyed our stay very much. The screened in back porch and fenced backyard were just wonderful for a family with young children! They also offered puzzles and books in the laundry room for use on a rainy day. The owners were very responsive to all our questions and needs. Wonderful vacation spot 🙂
Had an amazing time. Loved the house and the porches were great especially the screened in back porch at night. It was a short walk to the beach which was not crowded and the tiki bar that had great food. We are going to plan another trip next year and can’t wait to get back.
Loved our time at the Pistachio Bungalow. Our Carolina Beach vacation will definitely go down as a top 5 for our family. My teenager loved the screened in back porch and our 5 year old loved every room in the house. This place had everything you would want for a blast at the beach. Definitely coming back!
