As we find ourselves in challenging times, trying to get back to some kind of normal, we want to assure our guests that we are making every possible effort to ensure their comfort and safety when they stay at one of our properties. We want you to know that we use a professional cleaning service that stringently follows the most state-of-the-art procedures when it comes to disinfection. The disinfectant that they use is EPA registered and CDC approved. Their teams are trained to comply with OSHA standards and have finished a Covid-19 awareness certification course. The health and safety of our guests is their greatest priority.

Additionally, we have keyless entry keypad locks so you can self check-in.

Great WIFI especially important for everybody's Zoom Meetings!!

In addition to being crazy clean… our property is also gorgeous and comfortable! The home was refreshed completely in 2016 and because of Hurricane Florence, was refreshed again in 2018! During that remodel, we updated the 2nd bathroom to include a striking, subway tiled, walk-in shower with frameless double glass doors, a new granite backsplash in the kitchen and added outstanding deep seat wicker furnishings to our deck, to which we’ve just added beautiful new cushions! We’ve also added new beds throughout the home and now have queens in both the master and 2nd bedroom, twin beds in the 3rd bedroom and a queen sleeper couch in the living room, comfortably accommodating 8 guests… or more with the inflatable beds that we’ve added.
Our split bedroom design is ideal for providing privacy as the master bedroom is at the opposite end of the home from the other two bedrooms.

Our handsome, bright eat-in kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need to feel right at home…Keurig and Mr. Coffee coffee makers, a stand mixer, electric griddle, crockpot, toaster, electric kettle and more!! We have a 49 inch intelligent TV, Roku to stream Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, etc. and an antenna which gives you all the major networks, a BlueRay player and hundreds of DVD’s

Lastly, but probably the most important to many people is our location…it just can’t be beat for convenience… just about 2 miles to Historic Downtown Wilmington and the bustling nightlife of the riverfront and about 6 miles to the sandy white beaches of pretty Wrightsville Beach. We’re also just a five min. drive to Wilmington International Airport.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation home experience:

Find your best deal:

• Summer is the most expensive season in the Carolina Beach area. Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. 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.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have money saving offers on local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Choosing and booking a perfectrental home:

• Begin by choosing your the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Beautiful, Charming, Historic Riverfront and Wrightsville Beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If not, contact the property owner before booking the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach destination you simply love, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Are you bringing the family pet? 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.

More tips for your visit:

• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute is filed.

• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific source for finding the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected everything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to inspire future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will will be grateful for your feedback find their best vacation rental. Please be objective.
