Please note that "Sea La Vie" is a duplex with "La Dolce Vita". They do not share any common areas or entrances, and are each completely private. They share a common wall that divides the two homes. If you need more space, please inquire about booking both homes together!

“Sea La Vie” is the ideal oceanside hideaway with gorgeous oceanfront vistas and restricted public access to the pristine beach. Totally modernized with new furnishings, new beds and top-quality beds in every room, this comfortable and inviting home is located in the highly charming Flora's Bluff neighborhood, with a private boardwalk that is just 100 steps to the beautiful sand on Bald Head Island’s timeless South Beach.

As you walk into the home, you will be greeted by the open great room surrounded by new windows with sunlight streaming in. The entirely supplied gourmet kitchen features granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances to allow the chef in your family to prepare up memorable meals served on the breakfast bar. The dining area seats 10 and is ideal for special meals and entertaining. All this and more leads to the private front porch to take in the sun and serenity of this calming, ideal island location.

The second floor features a sun-filled extravagant master bedroom with new king bed and a brand new, private bathroom. The open, second-floor porch off the master bedroom offers broad oceanfront vistas and there’s ample room for reading, calming, beverage hours or just gazing at the rolling surf from all new porch furnishings. This just may become your secret getaway for early morning coffee and lazy sunset toasts to the day adored. The second bedroom on this level features a queen bed for your comfort and another completely new private bath. Every bedroom in the home has new beds, box springs, pillows, bed linens and frames. The home features TWO new full baths and TWO new half baths.

Head up one more level to discover a marvelous getaway with a full bed, two single beds and a loft bed, as well as a new half bath. This unique level has striking ocean vistas too, and this huge room is rather inviting and peaceful.

Families, friend, and travelers can relax here in comfort, style and safety. There is a private, fenced patio area for grilling, dining and for providing a play area for kids—and a close by outdoor shower. There is a brand new six-seat golf cart for your use in exploring this handsome island and you can tour the island in real style. There are also two new (2023) adult bicycles - we try hard to keep them in great condition but although we guarantee the availability and condition of the golf cart, we cannot guarantee the condition of the bicycles.

The owners will see that all your needs are accommodated and that your time spent in this home will be memorable. Our fulltime, on island home manager will go the additional mile to help guests feel special and welcome. We know you will agree with our one request that outdoor shoes stay outdoor so that the gleaming floors will remain that way for all our guests.

Spend a week or more at “Sea La Vie” and we are rather sure we will see you again and again as you make this your home away from home. Welcome to Bald Head Island.

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal rental experience:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Carolina Beach area. To find the best rental home for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• In the Carolina Beach area, The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• To start, have your family decide on a vacation week and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Oceanfront Completely Remodeled 3 Br 2 Full and 2 Half Ba Bhi Club has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what is best for your vacation group.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a property that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peace. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected everything. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
