Appreciate the peaceful solitude of Oak Island at Heads Carolina, a new construction home finished in July of 2024. Featuring a private backyard pool getaway, modern beachy vibe and open floor plan, there’s plenty of space to gather both inside and out as you build memories to last a lifetime.

The roomy common area is bright and inviting, with recessed lighting throughout, relaxing sage green and white walls and accents in warm wood and sandy neutrals. Parlor on the couch to watch a favorite move on the sizable, wall-mounted flatscreen TV, or appreciate a hand of cards or evening meal at the sturdy dining table, which seats at least six comfortably. Four additional bar stools are available for the breakfast bar and sleek counter-height desk, an ideal perch for those who may still need to keep up with work or school while away from home. The entirely supplied kitchen features gleaming stainless-steel appliances along with plenty of counter and storage space. A sliding barn door leads to the laundry room, where a full-sized washer and dryer are supplied so that sandy towels and swimsuits are ready for the next day’s adventures.

Just off the living room, the master bedroom features a king bed, a wall-mounted flatscreen TV and an attached private bath with a double vanity and step in shower. On the opposite side of the home, you’ll find the second bedroom, furnished with a queen bed and wall-mounted TV, as well as the bunk room, equipped with two twin-over-twin bunk beds. Between these two spaces is a full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo and hall access.

Beyond the kitchen, the green of the surrounding trees beckons you out to the screened porch overlooking the pool. The ceiling fan ensures comfort even on days without a strong breeze, and furnishings for calming and dining make this a magnificent spot to spend evenings with a drink in hand as the swimmers in your group splash below. Around the pool, you’ll find plenty more seating and a gas grille. Sway in the hammock chair and savor the shade below the home! The enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water is ideal for rinsing off sand after a long day at the beach. The front porch features both covered and open sections and looks out over a peaceful, tree lined neighborhood street. Savor your well-deserved respite with a stay at Heads Carolina!

Booking the best Oak Island vacation rental experience:

Sticking to your budget:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To book the most suitable rental home within budget, we recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Begin by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Heads Carolina: Modern Home with Private Pool in Quiet Neighborhood has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is normally available online. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Traveling with pets? 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. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or could be applied to your contract.
• If there's a particular Carolina Beach beach you simply love, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Tips to have a wonderful stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of concerns.
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Record any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if damages are assessed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your life at home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to compel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation rental. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
