The pool house includes a full bath -- a great convenience for coming off the beach. The panoramic views from any of the 6 porches are unlike any views of the ocean and intracoastal waterways on the island. Walk along the lighted catwalk down to the beach which is very secluded; or enjoy the beachfront gazebo. The house is one of the last properties on the west end of the island and is extremely private and quiet.

Holden Beach is a quiet, family-friendly beach recognized as a top beach by USA Today and a top-10 beach by National Geographic Traveler’s Magazine. There are no hotels or high-rise complexes, just family owned cottages. Holden Beach is part of the barrier island chain in southeastern NC and is also located approximately 35 miles from Wilmington, NC and Myrtle Beach, SC -- making trips for shopping, eating and entertaining very convenient. Holden Beach is also well-situated for 30 area golf courses.
We love our “home away from home,” and our family has spent many years enjoying all that Holden has to offer. We would love for you to choose to spend your vacation time at our property. Renting directly from the owner may be new to you (through VRBO), but we enjoy helping our renters plan the perfect vacation and that will exceed your expectations.

Ages 3 to 83 enjoyed this beautiful home. We had a lovely time!
Our second summer here did not disappoint: favorite views and great privacy!
We throughly enjoyed ourselves. Plenty of room. Lots of kitchen equipment! A big plus with a crowd. Pool was used every day. Can’t thank the owners enough!
This home is located at a great spot on Holden Beach. The boardwalk to a great outlet for surf fishing . The pool and hot tub provided extended fun for the kids. The house is spacious and accommodated all guests. We have a few concerns that we’re quickly addressed by the home owners.
Spacious, great views, nice beach & pool.
This was our second time staying in this house over a 4 yr period. The house is beautiful and the layout is perfect for a large family gathering. The rooms from the many balconies all around the house are beautiful from the ocean to the sound. The beach is very private and the tide pools make for exceptional photos at sunset. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen well supplied and perfect for large gatherings. The only negatives we had were the cleanliness of the place. Like everywhere you go these days it is hard to find workers and the place was pretty dirty upon arrival. Even the beds weren't changed in some of the rooms and sand and hair were in beds. Luckily we had extra sheets to remedy this. The house did have some wear and tear over the years but nothing to distract from the fabulous time we all had. Management was also very responsive to any issues we had. Would highly recommend this house just be aware you may have some cleaning to do upon arrival.
It was a great property for families! The pool and hot tub were a hit along with the ping pong and pool tables! Great family dining space and well stocked kitchen! Beautiful beach and family areas!
This was our 2nd stay at this home. It is perfect for our family group of 19+ (ages 5-73). Love this section of the island where there are no crowds. Family rotated time btwn the beach, pool and hot tub every day. Love the reverse floor plan with living area on the top floor. Kitchen well stocked. Great living areas. Plenty of room for everyone to be together and/or to find a quiet spot and enjoy the surroundings.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 72 Palms. It was an extended family vacation. All of our children, their spouses and our grandchildren joined us there. The property is spacious and very well equipped. The elevator was truly amazing both upon arrival and departure. It was also much easier for my husband and I to join the activities with our children rather than using the stairs. The pool, the hot tub, and the beach were enjoyed by all! The property is beautiful inside and out. The porches gave us a wonderful view of the ocean from sunrise to sunset. Our grandchildren enjoyed the ping ping table and the pool table on the ground level, as well as cornhole. It was a wonderful place to gather for a family vacation!
We had approx 17 adults and 1 toddler. There was more than enough room that we didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. We cooked in all week and enjoyed all the space with two tables. The younger group went downstairs where the pool table and ping pong table were and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Having a bathroom and shower by the pool made it very convenient. Would definitely go back.
