Beach house vacation rentals in Holden Beach

Terri’s home was absolutely beautiful. The location was close to a lot of things including the beach/ocean access. We rented the golf cart too which was so nice to have instead of walking or using our cars. The house was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Terri gave us recommendations for things to do and restaurants. We will definitely be back!

It was our second stay here and we feel right at home there. We love the spacious back porch and large fenced yard for our dogs. It is very walkable to the beach but we were able to get parking by the beach access. The house is well stocked with everything you need and even lots of Tupperware! The owners have been renovating and adding to the appeal since the last time we came five months ago. We can’t wait to come back again.

I can't say enough about our wonderful hosts ! they are amazing. The accommodations were clean, quiet, comfortable, fully stocked, and well worth the visit. Location was perfect and what a cute neighborhood . I would highly recommend this wonderful home. I promise it will not disappoint ! See you next year because we are coming back.

Kathie went out of her way to help me with a problem. Very much appreciated!

Couldn’t ask for a better location. Gorgeous views of the ocean, easy access to the beach, walk to grocery stores and restaurants. The bottom of the house is basically a big sandbox that our 4 year old and dog could play in all day. Peaceful and relaxing vacation. We’d stay here again!

As a small family of 3 our stay was incredible! Very thoughtful and informative host, immaculate attention to detail that made the stay a breeze! Would recommend to anyone!

Great location. We enjoyed our stay!

Sara was such a kind and responsive host. The house is comfortable and provides for all the conveniences needed when you are out of town, on vacation. It was clean and just the perfect size. Sara provided a great list of local recommendations for coffee, food, and fun. We found it really helpful. For our pup, there was plenty of neighborhood walking, parks, and so many dog-friendly beaches, restaurants, and casual outdoor dining options. Carolina Beach, the surrounding beach communities, and Wilmington were all so friendly. There are some great restaurants, breweries, and shopping in historic, charming Wilmington too. We would absolutely return to this quaint beach cottage. It's just perfect to bring your dog and enjoy the beach.

Low key and a great place to go if the beach is what you’re after. Location is an easy walk to the beach even with 4 kids. The house had plenty of toys for the kids for inside and the beach. The pool has a great shallow area and I really preferred the decking over the concrete. Plenty of room to relax once the day is winding down too. Kids could stay upstairs with us or just hangout in their own rooms. If you like the night life or going out to eat locally, this is not the best place as options are limited. Food lion is just off the island along with some other chains. As well as a seafood market locally about once a week.

10/10 experience. Host was very accommodating, professional, and very personable. We enjoyed our stay and would 110% recommend to anyone!!! Will definitely be back!!

We absolutely loved our stay at POSH! Location is incredible and the easiest quick walk to the beach (just across the street is the beach access). House is exactly as described and perfect for family gatherings - multiple fridges and dishwashers. The home was clean and well equipped. The private pool was great as well. Kerry was so responsive and kind. We will absolutely be rebooking this property again!

We had an amazing stay! The home was new, clean and beautiful! There was plenty of room, especially with the decks! It met our needs perfectly! We loved all of the activities in the fun yard! It was the best one in the area! We also enjoyed how close we were to the beach! Drew responded quickly to my questions before our stay, which I really appreciated. He was very kind and helpful. We would definitely stay here again, if we vacation in Oak Island in the future.

Beautiful house that is well-maintained! Perfect with my adult children and teenage grandchildren! Andrea was friendly and responsive to our needs!

We had a wonderful stay at Lyndsey and Topher’s home! From booking through the end of our trip, they were incredibly responsive, kind, and welcoming. The house was perfect for our family—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up for young children. We especially loved spending quiet mornings and relaxing evenings on the porches—such a peaceful retreat. The location couldn’t be better—just steps from the beach, which made getting there with toddlers and an infant a breeze. Every moment of our stay was enjoyable, and we’re already looking forward to coming back!

This was a beautiful stay! Great location, very peaceful, everything was clean and there were a lot of things in the storage closet (chairs, bikes, toys, etc.) for guests!

We did want a place with 4 bedrooms, a pool, and easily walkable to the beach. Which we got. We had 8 adults and 2 small children. The kitchen was well stocked! Lots of dishes and a large casserole dish was a plus. The main deck outside was nice also. Used it more than the tiki bar area since it had more seating. We didn’t use the one upstairs. Only 2 chairs. I do wish the pool had been bigger. It was under the deck so it was super cold (not able to be heated up by the sun) and looked more like a hot tub size. I’m sure it is good when it gets more into the summer months. Just keep in mind it is very small. The only bathtub is in the master suite upstairs. Not in the shared bathroom. Just an FYI. Overall we had a GREAT stay! It’s about a good 5 minute walk to the beach. Nice quiet street. We loved that. The hammock was fun. Do bring bug spray! I didn’t include that in my packing. You are near the ICW.

This was a fantastic place to stay with our children and an even better location! We have made a tradition of camping at Holden Beach for the past 8 years for my son's birthday but decided we wanted to maximize our beach time w/ less set up and tear down. We were so lucky to find this adorable little cottage! VERY convenient to the beach/pier. The outdoor set up underneath the house was perfect for us to just hang in the evenings. Would definitely recommend this house and stay here, again. Thanks for making our 8th year at Holden Beach one to remember!

What a wonderful place. It's everything it's billed to be. Very comfortable, peaceful. The kitchen is well appointed. I also really appreciated the personal touches -- books, historical newspapers -- a truly homey feel. Daytime temperatures were mostly in the high 50s but it was very pleasant out on the deck -- nice warm sunshine. And what a treat to get both a sunrise and sunset over the ocean (south-facing beach). Very pleasant strolls to be had on both the beach and streetside. This place is great. I look forward to returning.

This was our third time being hosted by Lily and Daniel. As always immaculate accommodations and I love seeing the improvements made year by year at this fabulous accommodation. Literally only feet from the sand. Centrally located on Holden Beach Island. could not ask for more. Hope to stay again next year if schedules permit.

The 5 of us old high school pals had a stupendous time. Tons of laughter on the deck overlooking the water. Great views! The cottage had everything we needed!

Beautiful beach house. Clean, neat, and interacted with Salem with immediate response. Easy walk to beach. We had a great time. Would love to stay again in the future.

We contacted Kelly prior to booking to make sure it met all the requirements of the people staying with us, and we were glad that it did. Kelly was very responsive from prior to booking all the way through checkout! It was nice to bring our dog and have a large crate, dog toys, and food bowls already at the house for our dog to use. The bed in the room that I used (upstairs king bed) was so comfortable, and my kids really enjoyed the game closet and books available at the house. The house is about 7 houses away from the beach access (4-5 minute walk). It was an easy walk and the cart with large wheels at the house made it really easy to get to the beach each day. The pier is also really nice, and it is just 4 or so houses away. My kids and dad enjoyed fishing a couple of days while we were there. Overall, the house is a great location, and we really enjoyed our visit to Holden Beach.

I came with my cousins for a bachelorette trip and we had a great time! It was our first time at Holden Beach. The location was perfect and the house was wonderful. It had everything that we could possibly need. Will definitely book again!

This place is the epitome of peace. Highly recommend this property for so many reasons - great location right off main highway, beautiful view with steps to the beach, nice accomodations with thoughtful touches and best of all, very sweet and helpful hosts, Robert and Emeric. Would love to return and stay longer.
