Family Beach vacation

Took a family trip to Carolina Beach and the Sea Lions Den was the perfect place to stay. Very clean and modern condo with all that we needed and a short walk to the beach. If you're planning a beach trip I think you would be well served here. Only minor things I would point out that could be better: noise of guests above you can be worth noting and the pool could've used a cleaning.

The inside was nicely decorated and furnished with supplies. A bit noisy from upstairs neighbors (can hear them walk loudly). Very close to beach access and local businesses. Building needs some maintenance. Overall was good!
