Bella Mar was the perfect house for our family reunion. It is a beautiful home with a spacious feel, meticulously clean, and a well equipped kitchen. The elevator was an important feature for those of us who found climbing steps a challenge. Any questions or problems we had were promptly taken care of by the management company. We hope to come back again.

We had a great week at this wonderful property. We had guests from 18 months to grampa age. We really appreciated the elevator which helped getting people and packages to the third floor. The view of the ocean from the third floor porch/deck was great. We've never been in a place that had so many kitchen and beach accessories available for us and the ping pong matches will be legendary!

- Judith

Judith, it is great to hear that your entire group loved the home! We agree, the elevator, ping pong table and beautiful view from the deck are wonderful assets. We hope to have you back! Thanks for trippin' with iTrip

What a beautiful house! This huge house was so close to the beach. It was one of the best stocked kitchens, in terms of pots/pans/utensils I’ve ever seen in a rental. We had 9 people and we were extremely comfortable. Loved the large kitchen table which made the perfect Phase10 playing space. TVs in each room which was so nice! If you’re coming to Kure, try to stay here!!

We had a wonderful stay at Bella Mar. Everything was clean and spacious. Beds were comfortable, we had plenty of linens and towels, the kitchen was well-stocked, and the bathrooms were huge.

This is our 4th summer stay at Bella Mar. Firstly, we enjoy Kure, nice and clean beach, not as crowded as nearby beaches. Secondly, Bella Mar is adequately appointed, very light and well laid out. The balcony provides a tranquil start to each morning. Enough room for out extended family of 10 and we aren't all on top of each other! Thirdly, block and a half to the beach via nearby access. All of these equates to return stay next summer! Madison and staff at itrip always provide timely communications before during and after the stay.

My entire family and I thoroughly enjoyed Bella Mar during our stay at Kure Beach. The house is in an area of town that's not crowded, so there's plenty of space to spread out on the beach for our crew of 11. The house itself was also spacious and all the essentials we needed. We felt right at home during our stay and definitely recommend this location.

We stayed as a group of 4 families and everyone had good time. Everything was as it was supposed to be in the house, nice and clean. No complaints. They even have hot shower in the backyard to rinse off the sand from the beach. Beach is just couple of mins walk and you see and hear the ocean from the balcony. We had a memorable stay.

If you’re looking for a large house in close vicinity to the beach then this is it! The condo is beautiful and all of the touches they put into it were greatly appreciated. I was on vacation, but with a kitchen like that I didn’t even mind cooking every day! I will say I wish there were more common items like sugar, flour, aluminum foil, and containers with lids (for leftovers). We just had to make an extra trip to the store to purchase the items so it wasn’t too big of a deal. The house is literally a 3 minute walk to the beach and they really do have everything in the house you need to enjoy your days there. And less than a 10 min car ride brings you to the boardwalk. You definitely could walk to it, but I had a 2 year old and no stroller so we drove. We had a couple small issues and the property manager was quick to respond and was helpful. And there’s an elevator in case you missed that in the description. It made carrying the suitcases upstairs SO MUCH easier! If we come back to this area we will definitely stay here again.

Bella Mar was the perfect house for a beach vacation for multiple families. We had 3 families in total. I loved that this house had 3 master bedrooms so no arguments over who gets the master. Walking to the beach took 5 mins, which is great with young kids. A 10 minute walk to a few small shops, restaurants, and the Pier. Around 10 minute drive to Publix for groceries. We grilled daily with either the charcoal or propane grill. Kids enjoyed having the ping pong table in the garage. Management was quick to respond when the internet went down. I would definitely go back.

Our group of 11 stayed at Bella Mar for 3 nights and loved every minute! Everything was extremely clean which was highly important to us during this time of Covid-19. The beach toys and chairs were very appreciated and came in handy. The elevator was very helpful in hauling our luggage in on 3 different floors. The beds were very comfortable and the showers in the master bedrooms where amazing! I wish we could have brought them home with us! There was plenty of room for us to spread out and lots of places for us to gather comfortably. We made many fun memories and are excited to book with iTrip again in the future! The fact that we could contact iTrip via text was a huge plus. I always got a quick and friendly response. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

We spent two weeks at Bella Mar for Christmas and it was just perfect! We were very hesitant to travel with the pandemic, but wanted to be close to our local family for the holiday. Upon arrival, we were very happy to find that the house was very clean and sanitized. The 3 levels are very spacious and provided plenty of space for us, 3 adults and 5 kids. The elevator is so helpful to bring in all of our belongings and groceries. The kitchen layout is great, and two adults could easily cook together without issue. The kids loved sitting at the breakfast bar for their meals! All the beds were super comfortable, plenty of closet space in each bedroom. There is a beautiful view of the ocean from the third floor balcony and just a few minutes to walk right over to the beach. Nice boardwalk access that you can walk along the beach and leads you right to Kure Beach Pier! Overall, we had a wonderful stay at Bella Mar, and have already begun talking about when we can return!

Bella Mar was perfect for our yearly Thanksgiving getaway with Family. Our families all gathered to Kure Beach and stayed at Bella Mar for the week. It was PERFECT! We all had our own King Sized bed suite, all on different floors. The living room is spacious and perfect to all gather and enjoy family time. The elevator was a huge plus for my Mother who can not walk up stairs and for loading and unloading all your luggage. The walk to the beach is a quick walk down the street and the views from the balcony were perfect to watch the sunsets from. iTrip NC Beaches was a pleasure to deal with and provide amazing service! Hope to book again next year!

This was a beautiful little townhouse. Great value for the money. Lots of space, lots of beds. Great for families with kids, or several different couples that need their space. Very close to the beach, a square half-block walk away. Very pleasant neighbors. Very clean spaces, lots of bathrooms, some for private bedrooms. No pets allowed, and they are very careful about desiring no sand, so just be careful and courteous to clean up after yourself, and this will be a great stay for all invovled!

This is our 2nd year staying at Bella Mar and again it was the perfect stay. We are a group from UNCW doing service with Habitat for Humanity over spring break and this was comfortable space we needed at the end of working all day. The beds are amazing, the living room/kitchen area was exactly what we needed, and there was plenty of room for our group of 8. I would recommend to anyone!!

- Amanda Gabbard

We are so glad that you came back to stay at Bella Mar again. Thank you for the service you did with Habitat for Humanity. I agree that the beds are amazing and it is a comfortable space. We would love to have you all come back again next year. Contact us to book your next vacation. Thanks for supporting a local family owned business. Thanks for tripping with iTrip! -iTrip NC Beaches

This home was spacious, clean, and well appointed. The colorful interior and tasteful artwork did not go unappreciated. The three couples in our party each had their own floor, which provided lots of privacy. The upper level housed a large living/kitchen to enjoy time together. Close to the beach with beautiful views of the water. Highly recommend!

Myself and 8 other folks from UNCW served the community this week on a Spring Break Service Trip and because of your housing we were able to come back “home” and relax everyday, play games, and reflect on our experience giving back to our neighbors! Thank you so much for opening your doors to a group of college students doing service for the week and giving us a place to call home. The house is beautiful and was PERFECT for us; the kitchen, rooms, bathrooms, and living space was exactly the size we needed and it didn’t hurt we were that close to the beach. Thank you!

Bella Mar is a great place to host a large family gathering. We easily slept 12 people. With three of the five bedrooms having an en suite bathroom, it was easy to accommodate families at different stages of life. My 91-year-old father was very comfortable all the way down to our two-year-old grandson and his seven-year-old sister and their parents. The kitchen is adequately stocked, if you want specialty items such as a certain baking pan, you may want to bring it yourself. The house is newly redecorated, with beautiful bright beach colors. You are about two blocks away from the beach, But because the houses in front of Bella Mar are low, you have a pretty good unobstructed view of the ocean. Highly recommend!

4/5 stars

We were mostly very pleased with Bella Mar. It was a big place, which worked well for our big family. The main living space is on the third floor, which is a little inconvenient at times, especially with a couple babies/toddlers, but the space itself was very nice and worked great for hanging out in a big group. The bedrooms were mostly very good, the exception being the bunk bed room and the 1st floor room with a pull-out couch. In both rooms, the mattresses left something to be desired. Our only other complaint was the lack of towels. We were short on bath towels (less than one per person, I believe) and there was only 1 dish towel. It's a minor thing, but it would have been nice to have a few more of each. All in all, we had a great stay! The house fit our needs very well, and it was great that we did not have to book it for the entire week. The proximity to the beach was wonderful, with beach access 1 block away. And the beach itself was great too. Though it is a very narrow beach, it was quiet and not very crowded at all, giving us plenty of space to stretch out. If we ever go back to Kure beach, we would consider this place again in our search.

Thank you for your review Kevin. We agree it is very spacious and great for family gatherings. The views are nice as well from the top floor! The location is prime for beach life.

I stayed at Bella mar during the end of July/ beginning of August. The house was fantastic! The master suite has hands down the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on. Even the pillows were amazing! My step dad, who is older, really benefited from the elevator. There were a few issues with the house (wasp nest under the deck, leaky windowsill during a torrential thunderstorm) but we had direct access to the management company and they were able to help us out swiftly. I think the best part about this house was the proximity to the beach. We were only two blocks away! It’s so nice to walk to the beach, instead of having to pack up a car and drive. And Kure Beach is where it’s at. The town is beautiful and you won’t find any ugly buildings covering up the ocean view (like in Carolina Beach). The streets are pristine and the houses are all shades of pastel. It’s quite the lovely town!! I would definitely stay here again.

Bella Mar is great! iTrip truly appreciates great guests such as yourselves and we are delighted to hear you all enjoyed your vacation. Thank you and we look forward to having you and your family back again next year.
