Looking for gasp-worthy panoramas of the shimmering Atlantic? This four-bedroom, 4.5 bath Dudley Parker-constructed Executive getaway is perched up a wooded, winding drive-emerging above Bald Head's High Dune treetops to reveal spectacular seascapes. This home's first level offers very private front and side porches and, inside, its entry warmly welcomes. Off of the entryway are three suites-each including its own full, private bath with granite counters and tiled showers. The first two-a King and a Queen-are light-filled rooms with generous closets and storage. The third bedroom is furnished with two Twins and offers access to the front porch. Upstairs, a vaulted-ceiling open floor plan makes the most of its walls of windows by highlighting ocean panoramas extending from Frying Pan Shoals all the way down South Beach. The bright living space is anchored by a gas fireplace, features constructed-ins and extends egress to the home's piece-de-resistance-its deep, covered water-facing front and side porches. You'll spend contented hours here rocking while relishing shimmering seascapes and savoring snacks as well as salty breezes at the al fresco dining area. If inside meals are your preference, you'll still be surrounded by briny vistas at the generous, window-surrounded dining table. Nearby a granite breakfast bar offers even more seating. The gourmet kitchen serves up stainless appliances, plenty of storage and counter space and both water and forested dune vistas. Down the hall, the King Owner's suite features additional sunlit water perspectives, its own access to the upper porch, a private office and an oversize ensuite bath with a his/her vanity, a water closet, and a huge sea-glass pebble/tiled shower. This level also homes the laundry and a half bath. Conveniently located near the Island's center-close to both the beach and stores and providing access to WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends, this gem is an ideal BHI haven. The elevator is not for guest use at this property.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Carolina Beach rental home experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Bald Head Island. Book your vacation home in Fall or Spring to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and choosing the rightrental home:

• Choose dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Captain Tank's is a Grand 4BR\/4.5BA Dunes Ridge Getaway with Ocean Views! has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the host before booking your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of problems.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Call the property manager immediately to report your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great reviews to drive more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please 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 reasonably to fix it.
