The Neighborhood:
Adventure awaits on Pleasure Island. Exploring the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher, home to incredible coastal wildlife, or take the scenic car ferry across the Cape Fear River for a relaxing visit to the charming town of Southport where quaint streets are filled with unique antique shops and galleries. History lovers can walk the scenic, live‑oak‑lined trails of the Fort Fisher State Historic Site, where Civil War bunkers still stand. Nature enthusiasts will love the island’s two state‑managed coastal preserves: Carolina Beach State Park, home to rare Venus flytraps found naturally only in this region, and the Fort Fisher State Recreation Area, known for pristine beaches, marshes, and wildlife viewing. Both offer beautiful opportunities for hiking, paddling, fishing, and spotting pelicans or even nesting loggerhead sea turtles.
After a day outdoors, unwind on your private balcony with a sunset cocktail, or head into town to explore the best of Carolina Beach. The Carolina Beach Boardwalk, ranked one of the Top 10 Boardwalks in the U.S. by Food & Wine, features classic seaside fun—local restaurants, an arcade, ice cream shops, bars, and the famous Britt’s Donuts. In summer, enjoy weekly fireworks and live entertainment, carnival rides, family nights, and Flamingo BINGO. Off‑season brings signature island events like the Cape Fear Kite Festival, Christmas by the Sea, and the Island of Lights Festival. Pleasure Island offers something unforgettable for every traveler—adventure, relaxation, and the perfect coastal escape.
Getting Around:
Getting around Pleasure Island is a breeze! While parking can be limited in peak season, especially in popular spots, paid private or public parking is available. We recommend exploring Carolina Beach and Kure Beach on foot or by bike – they're super walkable and bike-friendly. You'll find safe pedestrian and bike routes, including the Island Greenway. Renting a golf cart or bike is easy, too, with several local rental companies. Golf carts are one of the easiest ways to cruise around the island. Rentals are simple to arrange, and once you're behind the wheel, you can zip along any road posted 35 mph or under.
Other Things to Note:
You must be at least 25 years of age to book this property.

Clean. Nice area. Responsive host.
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2025
We loved our stay here. Appreciated the privacy (it’s not a duplex). There are minor issues like some spent lightbulbs on bedside lamps and a clogged toilet upstairs. We just didn’t use it and dis not want to get maintenance to come in late at night to address it. There were three other toilets anyway. Landlord is very friendly and responsive. Left our karaoke and all I had to do was call and they got it back to us no problem. Thank you for everything

Beautiful house with everything needed for a great beach vacation
6 / 10Average·Jul 2024
The location is great. On paper this should be an amazing property. Unfortunately, the bunkbed was a complete hazard and had to have the property management company Come fix it. The pool was very dirty and had to have the property management company have a special cleaning done out of cycle.
The pillows don’t seem like they’ve been changed in 20 years. The bedframe in the bunk room was broken, and I had to put books underneath one of the legs to balance the bed. This was never fixed.
The Cabinets are from 1970 and have a rather disgusting stickiness all over them. Plenty of cockroaches and ants throughout the home. I know this is pretty typical at the beach, but you should at least have a company take care of this regularly.
The Wi-Fi is pretty bad and doesn’t work and some of the bedrooms. Makes this difficult to work from the beach.
The showers are really old and rusted out. Definitely mold in some areas.
The entire house needs to be equipped with new furniture, a complete cleansing, new paint, and new showers.
It seems the honor is definitely not looking to put any money into this. The deck itself would move if you were to sway aggressively on it.
The outdoor shower on the ground floor below the deck was absolutely disgusting and smelled like it hasn’t been cleaned in years. Likely a back up from the drain pipe.
