Dunetinnes was the perfect beach house for our trip! The outdoor space was amazing, the house was super clean and comfortable, and the beach was right across the street. We had everything we needed for a relaxing stay and would definitely come back!!
This rental home was perfect. Across the street from the beach, very clean, comfortable and spacious. Having a private pool was really nice especially with a two year old.

Ultimate Getaway!
This home was the ultimate getaway! The location was fantastic—just a short trip to the beach and the aquarium. It was spacious, comfortable, we could even bring our dog, which was a huge plus for us! The property was very clean. We had an amazing time and we want to book another stay for when the weather is warmer and we can use the pool!
House was perfect for what we needed. Had all of the essentials you could ask for. Pool was perfect for the not so great weather days. Amazing location. Super quiet and relaxing!

5 stars!
This house had everything we needed for a perfect getaway! The layout was great for our group, giving everyone space to relax. The home was clean, and iTrip was very accommodating throughout our stay. We loved exploring the area—between the beach, the aquarium, and local spots, there was so much to do. We’ll definitely be back!

The Perfect Getaway
We needed a little getaway this winter and this house was perfect. This is by far, our favorite rental in Carolina Beach. We've stayed at many rentals in the past and this one provided way more than we are used to, which we loved. The location was great and the house itself was clean and well equipped. We will be back!!

Great Company
ITrip was easy to deal with. Booking was easy and during our stay communication was easy.
Had a few problems but they addressed them promptly.
We were also able to check in early (12:00) at no charge. I’ve never heard of any other agency doing that before!!!!
We really loved the proximity to the beach access path and the beach. It was a bonus to be able to see the ocean from the front porch.
It was great to have our own pool. The children spent many hours in there. We appreciated the pool towels.
Especially liked the floor plan of the kitchen and living room. Very open and family friendly. We did all of our eating there and never went out. Parking is good. We were 6 adults and 4 children and it was just the right amount of room with plenty of bathrooms. Great communication with the property owner.

Great Location & House
The location was great - just a short walk to the beach, but the house is so great that we barely went to the beach. This house was the most organized I've seen and the perks like the game, pool, and outdoor sitting area were only icing to the cake. I would definitely recommend and stay here for future visits.
House was great, close to beach. Only draw back the pool is old and small, but OK. Would stay here again...

A great time
My family and I had a great stay, the house was clean and an easy walk to the beach. We brought our 1 year old and our dog, and they both had a great time on their first trip to the beach. I will say though, the stairs inside are a little steep, my dog was afraid to use them, but she was a pro by the end of our stay. We also brought our own baby gates, but we only had to use one on the porch outside. It's a great house in a great spot, it's close to the Fort Fisher museum and aquarium. I definitely recommend staying here, and can't wait to come back!

Great vacation rental
We thoroughly enjoyed our week here. Having a pool was great and being able to bring our dogs with a fenced area and dedicated space for them really made it perfect for us. The house is an easy walk to the beach and everything we needed was provided. I found the iTrips staff to be extremely receptive, answering any questions I had within minutes of texting them and they quickly resolved the one minor issue we had. They repeatedly offered to assist with any further needs we had, which wasn’t necessary. We would definitely consider renting again here or at other iTrip properties.

Great house + location
We had a short stay due to some family emergencies but the Duntinnes house is great - the outdoor kitchen and pool space is super nice after a day at the beach (across the street!). Great location with easy access to beach and fort fisher rec area. The house is comfortable and well-stocked with essentials, from kitchenware to pool towels. Highly recommend!
