Welcome to a Shore Foundation. This vacation home is the Foundation of fun times with adored ones by the Shore. Positioned on the 2nd row, grab the beach cart & chairs & head to the shellabration across the street. Since you have such a short walk, you don’t have to search or pay for parking. On the ground level are highlights of the property. The saltwater pool, hot tub, sectional wicker seating & bar with TV will make you want to call the cabana boy for your pina colada. From the 2 Front Decks you have an ocean view. Go ahead, check the surf. With the Ocean Crest Pier just a short drive away, you can pull up it’s web cam. Since OKI is a South facing beach, the sun rises & sets over the water. From the decks, you get photo worthy vistas. Back decks are also on 2 levels & overlook the pool activities. Drive under the covered parking & unload your bags & provisions straight into the elevator. No lugging heavy bags up the steps.

The Upper Level has the modern design of a reverse floorplan to maximize ocean vistas. It is a light & airy open plan living/dining/kitchen. The glass door & multiple enormous windows give a variety of elegant daytime & sunset vistas. Indoors you may choose to sit at the 8 seat dining table or at one of the 4 seats at the kitchen island. On those charming blue sky days OKI is known for, appreciate the outdoor table on the deck & dine alfresco. This vacation home is definitely kid friendly: Pack ’n Play, highchair, kid-sized plates/silverware & even a kid-sized table with benches next to the dining table. The living area has plenty of comfortable seating, sectional couch & upholstered chair, with a huge screen TV to watch your favorite shows. The well-outfitted kitchen includes: a Duo Keurig k-cup & drip coffee maker, griddle, Ninja blender (perhaps those pina coladas are possible after all!), Cuisinart stand mixer with all the attachments, 4 slice toaster & in an adjoining closet is a drink cooler.

On the Lower Level there are 4 bedrooms & 3 full baths. The Lower Level front deck is covered & has a daybed swing just calling out for a snooze. Let the sound of the waves kissing the shore lull you to sleep. Also on that deck is an open air area with a glider for those who adore to sway & feel the warm sunshine on their face. The lower covered back deck has a view of the pool with 2 Southern rockers & a bar height table. Bring out your coffee in the mornings & listen to the call of the gulls. With sliding glass door access to the back deck is an additional bedroom with a queen pull out couch that also serves as an entertainment room with a huge screen TV, a dry bar, and a beverage cooler.

Upstairs in addition to the 3 bedrooms & 2 full baths, is a half bath right off the dining/kitchen areas. The upper front deck has a 6 seat table with a view of the ocean. The upper level back deck has a view of the pool & 2 rockers with a bar height table. This deck is not covered so you can sit here in the evenings to see the wonders of the nighttime sky above you. As a modest family beach, we don’t have the bright lights of the city which hide the stars.

This vacation home does not feel like a rental but more of a resort. After a day at the beach (just across the street) in the sand & sun, the fun doesn’t end. Whether it’s the pool, hot tub or swaying in the daybed swing with that book you’ve been wanting to read, there are so many amenities that you may not be able to pick your favorite.

Finding the best Carolina Beach rental experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in Oak Island. To find the best value, try changing your family's Carolina Beach vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, 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 specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have discounts for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Begin by choosing your trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. 15% Off Through May 18- Amazing Ocean Views, Pet Friendly, Heated Salt Water Pool, Hot Tub, Elevator has 9 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you reserve the home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your group.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or may be applied to your invoice.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let thieves ruin your holiday.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's stay, note any problem areas upon check in. Contact the rental manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to stimulate future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best rental home. Remember to 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 quickly to remedy it.
