Great house!

Nice to have a bathroom for each bedroom. The house was very clean. The pool and hot tub were great. Quiet neighborhood for kids to ride bikes. Longer walk to the beach but worth it because the beach was very private.

Great spot!

Nicely updated house that is very well and comfortably appointed. The pool is spotless; Dune & Ocean views are vast and secluded. Other people are around but you have a real sense of privacy. We’ll rent again.

Love Holden Beach

By far the best part of this house is the view from the main living area! Stayed of this property for a family vacation and birthday celebration. Our family had plenty of room especially with each bedroom having its own bathroom. Great/fast communication with Property Management. Very clean throughout.

Blue monkey

Just returned from 1week vacation at Holden Beach for first time. Beach town was small but clean. Several nice restaurants. House location was at far end of island which made the beach much less crowded. Beautiful beach and dunes and sunsets. House was spacious but furniture old. Deck furniture was falling apart. Kitchen very well stocked. Would definitely return.

Private and peaceful getaway

The house was in a gated community, the pool and view were fantastic. Furniture was comfy and homey. The house was clean and check in / check out process was easy with electric keypad lock. We did have to bring our own bath and beach towels, toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags, soap, toiletries, laundry detergent, cooking supplies, spices etc so just be prepared to stock on supplies! Overall, was a great house with plenty of rooms and baths for 5 girlfriends.

Great location for private family

We love Holden Beach! The location of the house is at the end of the island so it is super private. The pool was great but the pool furniture was in rough shape. The house could use some TLC. Small fixes and improvements could go a long way but the house was clean enough for us and we had a great trip!

Blue Monkey

Everything was clean. The area that we stayed in was quiet and peaceful. My problem was that it looked like it had prior damage but that was minor. And the hand rail in the pool was definitely something that should be repaired.

Exceeded all Expectations

When we booked A Blue Monkey for our family vacation (6 adults, 2 boys - 7 and 8 yrs old), we knew we found a great spot suitable for all of us - the pool and the beach for the kids, the porches for the parents and grandparents, etc. All our expectations were exceeded - the house was immaculately clean and larger than it looks in the pictures. The location at the end of Ocean Blvd in a gated area with very few homes nearby was perfect - the beaches were very quiet and open. We found shells, held hermit crabs and sand crabs, walked out on the sandbar at the inlet at low tide, caught bass and blues from the shore, pet sharks and horse-shoe crabs at the pier. The only negative is that we couldn't stay longer! Amazing place that we would book again in a heartbeat. Proactive Vacations was great to work with, too - they were incredibly responsive to our questions and gave us a lot of guidance about our stay.

Very Happy

Loved the whole trip. House was great and loved the pool and hot tub. Plenty of TV’s which means a lot with large family and some rainy days. Kitchen well supplied. Would stay here again. First time at Holden and enjoyed the laid back beach. No wait while eating out.
