Welcome to Southern Belle! This striking duplex in Carolina Beach is one block from public beach access with crosswalk - just hit the traffic button and the cars stop so that you may continue your journey to the ocean. The duplex is divided into two sides. Southern Belle only shares a wall with the other side - otherwise the fenced back yard and entry are private.
This striking property features 2 comfortable bedrooms with a king and queen bed, ideal for a peaceful nighttime's sleep. Appreciate the convenience of WiFi, roku TV, a washing machine/dryer, and fenced yard for your furry friend. The living room with a cozy couch bed provides additional space for a guest. Our entirely outfitted kitchen accepts for meals in, or appreciate the many delicious eateries right on the island.
Sip your morning coffee on the balcony with a view of the ocean and spend the evening under the string lights in adirondack chairs by the fire pit.
Downstairs next to patio is a closet supplied with chairs, sand toys, body boards, and a wagon to savor on the sand. A propane grille and patio table with 4 chairs allow for outdoor dining. There is also an outside shower area for rinsing off.
Carolina Beach is family friendly beach town with pizza spots, coffee and ice cream stores, seafood eateries, dive bars, and 2 grocery stores. You'll never have to (or want to) leave the island - but if you do, Wilmington is a short drive! During the summer there are complimentary outdoor concerts and movies, a weekly Farmers Market, carnival rides / games, and Thursday nighttime fireworks! Stroll the boardwalk and visit the famed Britt's donuts, head down to the Kure Beach pier, take a tour of Shark Tooth Island, visit the NC Aquarium or take in some local Civil War history at Fort Fisher. You can find new things to do every day or, of course, just relax on the beach and soak up the sun. You'll be glad you came to Carolina Beach, and you will want to come back year after year!

Carolina Beach rental booking tips and tricks:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Carolina Beach. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. 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? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides have discounts for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Make a plan and pick the perfectrental home:

• Select a group lead, select your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. Southern Belle 2 bed / pet-friendly / 2nd row in Carolina Beach with ocean view has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before reserving the vacation home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what is right for your vacation family.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach destination you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental
• If your group is traveling with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Note any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable 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 feedback.
