Sleek and Modern Oceanfront home: walk to restaurants and boardwalk! - Vacation rental home in Carolina Beach, NC

About this Property

• Sleeps 9
• 3 Bedrooms
• 2 Bathrooms
• Private vacation home
• Approximately 1500 square feet

This home is filled with all the amenities you could want. We've just installed the very best whole-home water softner and dechlorinater and added a king sized bed and a bigger intelligent tv in the living room. The linens and towels are supplied and of top quality. In wall vacuum and walk in showers, this one floor home is top notch.

With the ocean out your front door and the lake, eateries, coffee stores and boardwalk out your back door (not to mention farmers market, live music and even outdoor movie nights), it's impossible to find a better location than this first floor oceanfront home on a peaceful one way street.

You'll have a boardwalk from your sliding glass doors straight to the waves, and when you've had enough sun and sand you can walk Carolina Beach boardwalk, sip an iced coffee or eat ice cream in the shade. The summer carnival with Ferris Wheel and other rides is a short walk down the sand to the left, and to the right is a beach bar where you can sip drinks on an elevated pier.


You'll see the Carolina beach fireworks from your front porch every Thursday in summer, and in the winter a glance up the beach from your rocker will show you the Christmas lights on the boardwalk where every Friday Santa offers hot chocolate to visitors.


HOME DESCRIPTION

The 3br/2ba home is brand new and decorated in a modern style. We've put a brand new king size bed in the master, and a new queen bed in the second bedroom. Comfy! No family pets, no smoking and no carpet means it's good for people with allergies, and the open plan modern kitchen is a enjoyment to prepare in while still gazing out the windows to the ocean (please note that we've added more silverware and cookware at the request of previous guests).

The master bedroom has windows to the ocean, a delicious king size bed and a enormous walk in tiled shower with bench. The two guest bedrooms, one with a new queen bed and a second with sizable bunk bed and double sized trundle (room sleeps 5) share a modern bathroom with window. Both rooms have vistas to the lake. The home is located on a peaceful one way street. You can rent bicycles and pedal anywhere on the island.

Intelligent tvs, blueray DVD player, internet, full sized washer and dryer, dishwasher, garbage disposal, keruig coffee maker -- all the amenities! We just upgraded the T.V. in the living room to a bigger intelligent tv.

Close by there are paddle board units, surf lessons, bicycles and kayak tours. There are also fishing guides and boat tours available from the harbor a half mile away. Drive down to the aquarium or take the ferry to Southport of the afternoon and have a seafood lunch on the water after walking through historic streets.

Sheets and towels are supplied. Please bring beach towels, beach toys and chairs.

Please note, as stated above, the home is the first floor only. It is cavernous and private, but note that the top two floors (with a separate front door) are occupied by long term renters.

Saturday is our preferred check in and out day over the high season, and normally we cannot stray from that.

Tricks and tips to get the optimal Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

When to book a Carolina Beach rental & When to go:

• In the Carolina Beach area, The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• To find the most suitable rental home within your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Carolina Beach attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• To start, have your group agree to the best dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Sleek and Modern Oceanfront home: walk to restaurants and boardwalk! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before reserving the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what is optimal for your family.
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a certain Carolina Beach attraction you are crazy about, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

More tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas during check in. message the host immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out 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.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Most rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
