Only 200 steps down your private boardwalk, the warm sands of Bald Head Island's South Beach await when you stay at Dune Eden, an Executive Oceanfront getaway providing five bedrooms/5.5 baths and spectacular seascapes inside and out. The main home and crofter are cloistered around an entrance courtyard. The main home's first level homes the garages and egress to the beach access. Up the stairs, the next level proffers a deep, covered TREX wraparound porch, bayed on the oceanside and furnished with a dining set as well as seating for conversation or serene contemplation of the unobstructed Atlantic vistas. From here, you can take the spiral staircase to the upper sundeck or enter inside. Within, this floor reveals crafted, bespoke details around every corner-from the handsome Cypress wainscoting to the plank floor and original art. The three bedrooms on this level start with a roomy twin which utilizes the convenient hall full bath. The first roomy King suite renders enchanting water tableaus, direct porch access and includes a comfortable private sitting area as well as a spa-like bath with a sunken jetted tub, separate tile shower, water closet and his/her vanities. The second King suite also delights with its own en suite. A centrally-located family room completes this floor and tenders a wet bar, loads of constructed-ins, a decorative fireplace and porch access.
The home's top level's open floor plan is accentuated by soaring shiplapped ceilings, walls of windows showcasing dazzling Atlantic panoramas and loads of warm sunlight. The cavernous, cozy living area is anchored by another decorative huge fireplace with a massive Pecky Cypress distressed wood mantel. The hub of the indoor dining space, located in an oversize bay that provides shimmering vistas from every angle, is a bespoke compass table seating eight under a beautiful shell chandelier. Dine here or al fresco, through the door to the sun deck, where yet another dining set and conversation area offer Atlantic breezes as well as seascapes. Back inside, beyond the dining area, a mammoth quartz island provides breakfast bar seating at each end, with a professional Viking gas prepare top in the middle and plenty of prep space in-between. From the wet bar and wine cooler to the professional Viking stainless appliances-this kitchen is a gourmet's delight! The upper oceanfront King Owner's suite on this level affords a refuge with its private sitting area, porch access and extravagant spa-like ensuite. The home's crofter provides another separate sanctuary in the form of a Queen suite with not only a full bath but also a wet bar and mini refrigerator. There is no WiFi in the crofter of this home. The property includes use of two golf carts and WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends.

Finding the best Bald Head Island vacation home experience:

Finding your best deal:

• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Reserve your Carolina Beach rental in Fall or Spring months to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guides that include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your stay, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the rental manager right away to document any damages.

• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
