Carolina Mornings

“Just what we needed. Everything as advertised and easy process to check in. Parking garage doesn’t accommodate vehicles with toppers which they did say. Not their fault. Parking across the street will cost extra and is confusing in the middle of the night when no one is around across the street. Security person at the condo was fabulous though and we got it figured out! Best part of this is access to pools and Daytona Beach. I was very pleased to see life guards at the beach as well. We had a great stay and would definitely come again. Hosts were also very responsive to messages. Thank you!”

“Great location and a wonderful resort! The view was wonderful and the property was clean and updated. Everything was as pictured and the host was very easy to work with! The location was great and walking distance from the Ocean Center, the Pier and everything in that area. The resort served free ice-cream daily and the kids really enjoyed that :)”

“My 5 and 3 year old boys already want to come back to this Airbnb. It is perfect for kids and dog families. The HUGE yard is amazing for downtimes. Although it was raining for most of the weekend, our Airbnb definitely made the trip great for the human and dog children. We could play fetch with the dog without worrying about them being cooped up when we go out to explore The location is close enough to downtown, biltomore and River art. Beds and sheets are so comfy. Plenty of toys for the kids. We did have WiFi issues that took a while to resolve. But host provided us with good solutions to make it up for that. Overall, we highly recommend. Will definitely come back.”

“This is our second time renting from this host two different rooms with two different experiences yet both were amazing. They were consistent in providing an amazing time for our family. Check out list was simple and not overwhelming. I love that they had a small vacuum and broom in closet since i have 4 littles it was helpful. Even tho they didnt request us use it. The hotel itsself has a vast amount of activities and amenities to use making their room a prime location. I appreciate they have always been kind without overbearing.”

“I feel like this place was worth what we paid. I would have been very upset if I had overpaid. The hosts are great, the condo is ok, I think “stunning” might be a bit of a stretch. The beds and bedding are not comfortable at all, but we slept. The resort itself was decent for the price. You just have to understand it’s definitely a timeshare type resort. We probably wouldn’t stay again, but if you’re just looking for a decent place to crash with good prices, you’ll probably love this place!”

“We had three big issues. The first was that the space had huge temperature regulation issues. The listing made it sound to me like they had provided what was needed to keep the place comfortable but it wasn’t so. The first day we walked into an 80+ degree house. The A/C is in the bedroom facing the bed and not the rest of the house so it was impossible to cool the house down until the temp outside actually cooled down. The first two nights I actually slept on the couch because the AC was so loud and the temp too cold without covers and too hot with them. When I called Carolina Mornings about this issue they very cheerily told me they were sorry for the inconvenience. So I never saw them as people who would provide any real help. So we just made do. The water was also brown which made showering, brushing teeth and washing fruits and vegetables less than a pleasure. And finally, there were some pretty basic kitchen supplies missing, like a can opener and a spatula/scraper.”

“I would never do business with Carolina Mornings again. they are rude and awful to deal with. We had a 6 day rental and they told us the morning of check-in they only supply minimal supplies for 2 - 3 days. 1 roll of Toilet paper and paper towels. You are supposed to bring the rest from home. You are only allowed 6 trash bags for a place that sleeps 10 people. And no trash barrels to put the trash in. You cannot put it outside because of Bears. You are supposed to leave the smelly trash in the kitchen all week. For the cost of this property, it should come fully stocked. It is a beautiful house and the 5 bedrooms with 5 full baths made it easy to have 5 guys in the house. But if i were the owner - i would fire Carolina Mornings.”

“The home itself was nice, however upon arrival there was what looked like makeup stains, and company requested I pay for it. Upon explaining this was there at arrival, they closed the request, I just didn’t appreciate the accusation of causing stains that were not made by my group. 7 years of using this platform and i’ve never experienced this before. Lastly, I would not stay here if you’re a POC, as their next door neighbors fly a confederate flag high in their yard. Made me feel unsafe, especially given the seclusion of this area.”

“The house was decent enough. We booked specifically for the hot tub amenity to which was unusable due to excessively loud filter trying to suck in the water. The hot tub also had an off odor and debris in it to which we inquired about the chemical dispenser being empty. They sent a "tech" out to inspect the hot tub as well as to replace batteries in a chirping smoke detector. The tech entered the residence without notifying us which felt strange. He also okayed the hot tub to which the odor remained, dirt was cleaned out and the filter was still excessively loud. We could not use the amenity out of concern for skin infections and the loud filter making. it the exact opposite of relaxing. The host offered us an insufficient "refund" and I am awaiting Airbnb to make this correct.”

“Check your bed linens carefully! There was blood on both the fitted sheet and the comforter in the master bedroom. Also the towels and wash cloths smelled sour. We opted to buy our own sheets and wash cloths instead of using what the host provided. Once the trust is lost- it’s hard to get back.”
