Absolutely Perfect

The condo looks exactly like the photos- we chose this property because of the 1/2 bath which allowed my 14yr old son to use the (comfortable!) sofa bed as his sleeping space, and having a 2nd bath was important to us. Amanda was helpful, responsive, and easy to work with from the time I booked to the time I checked out. She has thought of every detail, and it shows. 🙂 One reason I liked her is because she’s a local, not an impersonal corporation as so many places are. CB is unique for having so many friendly and happy locals everywhere you go. It never felt like we were in a tourist trap, just great vibes everywhere! Note: bring plenty of cash to CB as most businesses prefer it, and many require it. This keeps prices lower, from what I can tell, and I also loved that these are small locally owned businesses, not chain restaurants. We had a GREAT experience in every way, and will absolutely favorite this property and seek it out for our next stay! Thank you, Amanda!

Cozy Stay in the Winter

2nd time staying at the Tropical Palm. CB is a little different this time of year, very peaceful and no waiting for a table at the restaurants! Condo has ocean views and we were there when a storm passed thru so we could see the waves breaking from the condo's deck. This condo is very clean and in a great location by the Hamlet St beach access and across from a great local restaurant "The Sandspur". Great that the condo has a washer and dryer as we got caught in the rain and it was nice to be able to wash and dry our wet clothes. The host Amanda was very attentive, as I called her regarding no signal on the TV and she called back promptly and walked me thru the steps so I could watch my show. Great place to stay, excellent host. Next time we are in CB we hope to rent this condo again!!
