Oceanfront 2BR/2BTH 1st Floor Retreat! Linens Included, Free WiFi, Free Parking

Welcome to Chasin' Waves at Carolina Beach! Chasin' Waves is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath, oceanfront condo! Wake up, take a deep breath of ocean air, feel the warm sun on your face, exhale. Relax - you are at the beach! Where else can you take in a breathtaking sunrise and a great cup of coffee on your private balcony, then stroll down the beach to the boardwalk and grab some Britts donuts for breakfast?! That's just the start of many incredible memories you'll make visiting Carolina Beach. We love this island and we are happy to share both the island and our home with you!

New in 2023: New bedroom furniture in both bedrooms, new mattresses and new box springs! We include all linens, sheets and towels with your rental! We believe a great vacation starts with a good night's sleep which is why both bedrooms are equipped with room darkening curtains. The master bedroom is equipped with a ceiling fan, a 45" HDTV, an en-suite bathroom with a double vanity, a closet with hangers, as well as a small private deck. We keep a small black fan in the closet of the master bedroom for additional air flow or to use as a sound machine to help you sleep!

The guest bedroom also has a closet and direct access to a bathroom with a stand up shower and extended vanity. There are additional blankets in the closets and extra towels under the bathroom sinks.

Our dining room table is equipped with a butterfly leaf, so please feel free to make it larger or smaller to accommodate your group.

The living room is equipped with a 45" HDTV, a ceiling fan, and a sleeper sofa with an upgraded queen “cool dreamz” mattress. And last, but certainly not least, the oceanfront porch is large enough to comfortably accommodate seating for multiple people. There is a small high top table, 2 swivel chairs and 2 stools. You can also use our high-boy beach chair or any of the kitchen stools for additional seating. We plan to add a few more seats this summer!

Parking! 1 reserved space directly under the building and 1 additional space in the lot directly across the street.

We had a great time despite the rain. The condo was perfect for 4 adult's. The beach view was good. The kitchen had all we needed. Good beach access. We would stay there again. Only issue was someone was parked in the parking spot under the condo when we arrived. Thankfully there werr enough spots across the street.

Laid back, relaxing

Every thing was great about this location. My only minor complaint was the beds seemed more like a full size instead of a Queen, but that may be because I’m used to a king. I would book this location again.

Wonderful. Felt like home during our stay.

Much better view than the pics and much bigger on the inside than expected. Everything we could have needed to make ourselves at home was either provided or was available within a short drive. Beach gear provided was great and having access to an outdoor shower to clean off the sand was fabulous.

A delightful getaway spot for a birthday week. Easy beach access and so much sky watching to be had! Clean. Well-appointed. Close enough to walk to restaurants and the boardwalk, but far enough away to be out of the hub-bub. Truly comfortable beds, too.
