Luxurious OCEANFRONT resort property located at the exclusive west end of Holden Beach in a private, gated community. The home has all the space you need including an inverted floor plan with over 5,000 square feet, 8 bedrooms, 9.5 baths, elevator, multiple upsized wraparound decks, and gorgeous one-of-a-kind ocean and inlet vistas. Bordering the property is a 24-acre natural preserve -- a really exclusive surrounding. This resort property includes refreshed furnishings, linens (bed linens supplied), appliances, and décor.

NEW FOR 2024 SEASON: Renovated game room including ping pong table and pool table, in home double laundry with 2 new washer/dryer stacked units, new floor on middle floor, new interior painting throughout, artificial turf installed in back yard including 3-hole putting green. This really creates an amazing outdoor space for all to appreciate.

This huge family-friendly and immaculate home features an inverted floor plan that includes a gourmet kitchen, enormous living room, two dining areas and two master bedrooms on the top floor. Both master bedrooms are roomy and have ocean and intracoastal waterway vistas and huge en suite bathrooms. The kitchen has bespoke granite countertops, tile backsplash, new appliances, constructed-in commercial refrigerator double ovens, and is well-outfitted with every gadget, modest appliance, and utensil needed to prepare huge meals or accommodate take-out from any of the many eateries on the island. The living room includes new furnishings with a sizable flat-screen tv, expansive ocean vistas, bar area with a constructed-in ice maker and wine refrigerator that spills over to a sizable covered veranda.

The second floor includes 6 bedrooms each with their own attached bathroom. A second living room with a large TV and pull out sleeper couch is a ideal hangout space for kids or adults. The utility room on this floor includes a front-load washer and dryer, and laundry/utility sink. The ground floor includes a two-car garage and game room complete with pool table, ping pong table, and a secondary full-size refrigerator for additional cold food and drink storage. The game room leads directly out to the broad pool deck and is the ideal entertainment space.

The 3/4 acre grounds include lush landscaping, over 70 enormous palm trees, fenced yard, and a backyard getaway with a large deck ideal for calming by the saltwater pool and hot tub, grilling dinner or appreciating the afternoon sun and warm nighttime breeze. The pool home includes a full bath -- a great convenience for coming off the beach. The expansive vistas from any of the 6 porches are unlike any vistas of the ocean and intracoastal waterways on the island. Walk along the lighted catwalk down to the beach which is very secluded; or savor the beachfront gazebo. The home is one of the last properties on the west end of the island and is extremely private and peaceful.

We do not offer weddings or other special events at the property.

Holden Beach is a peaceful, family-friendly beach recognized as a top beach by USA Today and a top-10 beach by National Geographic Traveler’s Magazine. There are no hotels or high-rise complexes, just family owned cottages. Holden Beach is part of the barrier island chain in southeastern NC and is also located roughly 35 miles from Wilmington, NC and Myrtle Beach, SC -- making trips for shopping, eating and entertaining very convenient. Holden Beach is also well-located for 30 area golf courses.

We appreciate our “home away from home,” and our family has spent many years enjoying all that Holden has to offer. We would appreciate for you to choose to spend your vacation time at our property. Renting directly from the owner may be new to you (through Vacation Rental By Owner), but we enjoy helping our renters plan the ideal vacation and that will exceed your expectations.

Rental home booking tips and tricks:

How to get the best value:

• Summertime is high season in Holden Beach. Reserve your vacation in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking the right Carolina Beach rental:

• Begin by choosing your vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Amazing Oceanfront Resort has 9 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking websites. If not, call the property manager before you reserve your rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a certain Carolina Beach attraction you crave, browse rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs could be applied to your invoice.

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon check in. Make contact with the rental manager right away to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your home life. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
