If you're looking for the ideal luxury beach rental on Oak Island for entertaining and appreciating the ocean breeze with family and friends, you've found it! Meant to Beach is an fantastic 5 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom pet-friendly home with a private pool, hot tub, 4 balconies (2 oceanside and 2 poolside), a pool table, and so much more. Plus, you can't get any closer to the Ocean Crest Pier than when you stay here — it's literally right across the street from beach access and all the amenities at the pier, like the oceanfront restaurant Island Way. Talk about the ideal location!

It was purposefully designed with a reverse floor plan to take advantage of the striking ocean vistas from the main living area, kitchen, and dining spaces. Upon walking into this open floor plan on the top level, you'll be blown away by those vistas, vaulted ceilings, and high-end finishes throughout. There's an upsized sectional couch for snuggling up and watching your favorite shows on the sizable flatscreen TV after a beach day or exploring the island. The elegant kitchen has granite countertops, a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances (including a double oven), and a cavernous kitchen island with bar seating for up to 4. One of the unique features of this home is the massive dining room table that turns into a pool table with an ocean view! How cool is that?

For those who can't wait to soak up the sun and relax, you'll find many outdoor spaces and plenty of seating options to do just that! The private pool area is a backyard getaway offering 6 lounge chairs and a set of Adirondack chairs. You'll find two oceanside balconies to watch the sunrise and the sunset over the Atlantic with your favorite drink in hand. Both of the two poolside balconies offer stairs leading all the way from the top floor to the ground level with the pool. The hot tub is one of our favorite spots to relax in the evening, especially after an afternoon of golf or walking around the local sights.

Back inside, the pretty interior design extends into the primary bedroom suite that features a extravagant king-size bed, a sliding door that leads to the top balcony, and modren coastal furnishings. The ensuite bathroom offers a spa-like experience with a bespoke tiled shower and double vanity. The half bathroom completes this top floor.

Heading downstairs, you'll find all four guest bedrooms — one king, one queen with ocean vistas, another queen, and then a bunk room with a double over single and trundle. Again, please note that the photos are different from the current configuration and will be refreshed soon. Two sets of Jack and Jill bathrooms on this level connect two of the bedrooms together. These bathrooms feature granite countertops, double vanities, and tub/shower combinations.

That's only the beginning of all the opulent amenities at this 2nd row vacation rental on Oak Island! Beach gear is available (like chairs and a wagon), high-speed wireless internet for those who need to stay connected, and so much more.

Getting the best Carolina Beach rental experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking your vacation home in the Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines have coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

How to choose the perfect vacation home in the Carolina Beach area:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. 2nd Row Directly Across from Pier w\/ Private Pool, Hot Tub, and More has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before booking the property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your family.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or costs might be applied to your agreement.
• If there's an individual Carolina Beach destination you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your visit, note any problem areas when you arrive. Call the rental manager immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a great vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
