Note: Parking is limited in this part of the island and there is only one dedicated parking space for the unit. Also, this area is prone to flooding when there are heavy rain events or king tides. This may result in temporary closures of Canal Drive to car traffic. Please look at the King Tide calendar in our photos - this generally occurs 3-4 times per year.
Although there is a dock, it may not be used for motorized boats. Our guests can fish or launch kayaks or stand-up Paddle boards from it.
We want you to have a magnificant vacation, create lasting memories and be our guest for years to come. We are just a phone call or text away should you have any issues or questions.

Carolina Beach rental home booking tips:

Find your perfect vacation home:

• Booking a rental in Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable 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 on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The earlier you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitors guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and picking the right Carolina Beach vacation home:

• First and foremost, have your group commit to a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. 2 BR\/2.5 BA beautiful, spacious waterfront Carolina Beach condo has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before you book the rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or could be applied to your invoice.

More considerations:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Make a record of any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of issues.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on great ratings to inspire new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
