Welcome to Narnia, a 5 bedroom oceanfront vacation home on Oak Island!

There's so much to savor here, with a private boardwalk to the beach, multiple spaces for appreciating the expansive ocean vistas, and a completely remodeled kitchen. Plus, it's ideally located in the West Beach area, about a mile down the road from Lonerider and close to The Point.

On the main level, you'll find a bright, open floor plan for your family and friends to gather! The living space is complete with those marvelous vistas, an upsized sectional couch, two swivel chairs, and a enormous flatscreen TV.

A few steps away is the cavernous dining area with a impressive wooden table that seats up to 8. The real star of the show is the broad oceanside deck that features multiple places to sit and relax while you listen to the relaxing sounds of the waves or watch the sunset with your favorite drink in hand.

Two bedrooms are located on this floor — both with queen-sized beds and coastal touches throughout. These bedrooms share a generous Jack and Jill bathroom with 2 toilets, 2 vanities, and a tub shower combination. Bathrooms and laundry room modernized in late 2024!

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• To find the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides have coupons for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

How to pick the best vacation home in the Carolina Beach area:

• Start by selecting your vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Oceanfront Cottage w/ 3 Floors & Renovated Kitchen: Escape to Narnia has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. If not, email the property manager before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what is suitable for your vacation group.
• If there's a particular Carolina Beach attraction you are crazy about, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Upon check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
