Great location, with beach access. The apt was neat, clean, and well decorated. It was also well stocked with essentials. They had everything you needed for a day at the beach. The place was perfect for a party of two.

Perfect cottage for a weekend at the beach. Space was optimized and the decor was perfect. It was equipped with what we needed although we didn’t cook. The outdoor sitting area faced the ocean, although due to the dunes there was no view but a walkway to reach the beach. Shopping and restaurants were close enough to walk.

A wonderful weekend getaway!
This property was exactly what my wife and I were looking for! We wanted a quick weekend getaway with good beach access and this was the perfect spot. Great location, very clean and stocked beyond belief! I’ve stayed at a lot of va action homes but I’ve never stayed anywhere that came close to the amount of amenities that this property provided. All you need to bring are your clothes and some groceries and you will have a great trip! We will absolutely be back.

Nice, due to mobility issues beach access at the rental was challenging. The height of the protective dunes, at the rental, blocks a view of the ocean. It was quiet at night. Accessible to shops and dining. Outdoor lighting and a parking space was provided.

Absolutely loved staying most of the month of June here. I met the owners and they were so lovely and accommodating. Even offered to let me use their printer if needed, given I was working remote while I was there. Access to their storage, use of beach equipment, and outdoor shower were the highlights for me. I only showered once indoors :)

Whimsical Whale at Atlantic Beach
Very tiny, no closet or dresser in the bedroom (although, there are storage baskets under the bed). We had to live out of our suitcase by moving it from the bed to the couch to sleep, and from the couch to the bed to relax during the day. There was no counter space in the bathroom. No screens that fit in the windows. Overall, we had a nice stay, just very tiny for the price. It was just my wife and I and I don't know how it would have handled 4 people as the ad says...

We love staying at the Whimsical Whale!
This was our second stay at the Whimsical Whale. We love the property, location and easy beach access. The property has anything you would need for the beach from ice packs, beach towels, coolers, chairs, etc. There is also a nice little patio on the back with lights to enjoy the evening outside. The place is quite cozy (meaning small). Ideal for two, I think four adults might be a bit crowded. There is no ocean view from the property but we didn't really care too much about that since it is a short walk over the dunes to the beach. The kitchen is well appointed. If you bring your own food, it will have to go on the counter as all cabinets are stocked with kitchen ware. Plan to live out of your suitcase! Storage in the bedroom consists of a few hangers and two drawers of a small night stand. Overall, you will definitely enjoy your stay here!

Cute place, pictures are accurate. Nice to be able to walk over the dunes with your coffee for early morning shelling. Clean with a well stocked kitchen perfect for 1 or 2 people. Also nice to be able to walk up the street to The Shark Shack which is outstanding (but get there early it's busy!)

Great little beach place!
We loved our stay here. It's definitely not big, but it's a perfect size for two. Just a short walk over the dunes to the beach, and the private patio out back is a great breezy spot to enjoy morning coffee or an evening cocktail (plus the outdoor shower is awesome when you get back from the beach). Everything was clean and ready for our arrival, and when a couple of issues arose (owing in both cases to beach air and metal being natural enemies), the host was readily available to address them quickly. Short walk to numerous restaurants/bars as well. Overall, we loved it and would definitely come back again.

The Art of Decorating
Whimsical Whale is the bottom unit of three story property, and the owners have done everything in their power to make guests feel like they are not staying in a basement. Beautifully decorated throughout the unit with lots of thoughtful touches. Great kitchen, living room, small bedroom and bathroom. I found the bed uncomfortable, but that's probably just me, prefer a hard mattress. We did have trouble with the Wi-Fi, the instructions in the unit were confusing, but we got it worked out.
Beach access is a little challenging, but my wife and I are older. And finally like any bottom unit, it tends to be dark but not damp thanks to a large dehumidifier. We probably wouldn't rent this unit again, but all in all it is beautifully appointed property just steps from the beach. It could be your cup of tea.

Loved our stay at Whimsical Whale.
Property is as described. It is small but has everything you will need. They provided beach chairs, beach towels, all linens, even shampoo, conditioner and hair dryer. We loved sitting outside in our own private patio. We were thankful for the shimbumi beach shade. We love the beach but the NC sun gets hot! Whimsical Whale is decorated beautifully and very organized. A/C cranks, loved having washer and dryer. We would definitely stay again.
