A mini wet bar caps off this space with an array of beverage glasses, a full refrigerator, full sink and ice maker.

A pair of queen bedrooms feeds from the second living space and offers a comfortable getaway to go along with a shared bathroom and TVs in each room.

The second level homes the final two bedrooms, furnished with a king bed and flat screen TV in each to pair with the shared bathroom.

A jumping off point for exploring the outdoors is just a few properties over where you can rent kayaks and paddle boards from the Long Beach Paddle Company! There are even racks on the dock to store all the toys! Note the boat lift if not for guest use.

Want another option for exploring the island? An owner-included 2022 six seat golf cart with Bluetooth and a backup camera can be rented for an additional fee of $450 per week. The golf cart has a town parking decal to make driving around the island much easier for you.

Tricks and tips for getting the best vacation property experience:

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

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To get the best value, try changing your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• In the Carolina Beach area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked very early. Booking your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to choose and book your prefect Carolina Beach vacation home:

• Start by having your family agree to date ranges and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Whitecaps: Intracoastal Waterway Home with Pool Table, Ping Pong, Dock has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before you book the property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.

More considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During arrival, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check dressers, closets, 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 you have a terrific vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
