We will consider an additional pet for a charge. We adore working with a group of friends as long as the group is considerate of the surrounding neighbors and do not disturb the neighborhood. In consideration of our neighbors we do not work with a group of young people age 23 & below or older people planning to event with a lot of alcohol.

Welcome to E Sea U! You will find tranquility and relaxation in this beautiful beach home at Carolina Beach. This enchanting dwelling is located in the center of many choices for you & your family to savor. We are located in very close proximity to: two min. walk to the ocean, one block to the lake, .6 mile from the Carolina Beach Center and a short distance to many fine eating places. Our bungalow fronts both South Lake Park Blvd & Carolina Beach South streets. You can walk to the Carolina Beach Center on the lightly used one lane paved street or walk on the beach. The Carolina Beach Center has amusement rides for the kids, Frank's delicious pizzas and Britt's doughnuts. People wait in line for over an hour to get Britt's doughnuts.

This bungalow features a kitchen and family room combined, with enchanting tile floors. The kitchen is equipped with a microwave and dishwasher. Whether you dine on the barstools or table, you will appreciate the "beachy" feel this home has to offer. There are three bedrooms each with a queen bed, and hard wood floors. There are two baths one with a tub & the other has a shower. There is an h/c outside shower with a dressing area for those long hot days in the sun. The sunroom has a trundle bed which means there is room to sleep 8 comfortably. You will appreciate the unique "dressing table area," which accepts the lady of the home to spend more time preparing for a walk to one of the eateries or stores. We have parking for four cars, one under the home & three parked in a row behind the bungalow. The area under the bungalow is covered with concrete where renters enjoy sitting in the shade with a cool breeze spending time with their family & friends. There are two beach accesses behind the bungalow one on each side roughly the same distance from the bungalow. You will be on the beach in two mins. after you leave the bungalow.

I have been committed to providing our guest with a vacation home that will make excellent memories for the rest of their lives. We keep our place clean & attractively beach decorated. We would appreciate to work with you. We are flexible and invite your questions.

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal Carolina Beach rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking in the Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain discounts for local shops and restaurants.

Finding the best vacation rental in Carolina Beach:

• First, have your group decide on dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. One Street Over - Cottage by the Sea! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property owner before you book the home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More considerations:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peace. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great time? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
