Welcome to Papa's Porch 2.0! - New for 2024

With 8 bedrooms and an elevator servicing all levels, the home is ideal for multi-generational families or other sizable groups. The home is located on West First St with spectacular vistas of the ocean. From 2009-2020, we owned another striking 8 bedroom home at Ocean Isle Beach and earned over 110 5-star reviews from our Vrbo guests. You can see the other home here, and we're responsible for all the reviews from December 2020 back: https://www.vrbo.com/2573689

The 4th (top) floor hosts the main living room with ample seating, an 85-inch Sony UHD 4K TV and a bar area with a wine refrigerator. The kitchen and dining area is located on the top floor, with a dining table that seats 10 and bar seating for 9 more. The top floor also contains a king bedroom with private bath, as well as a full-size laundry room with a second refrigerator, washer and dryer and an ice maker that stores 25 pounds of fresh ice. The 4th floor deck has an outdoor dining table, ceiling fans and plenty of comfortable seating for taking in the gorgeous ocean vistas.

On the 3rd floor (middle) you will find a second huge living room, a king bedroom with private bath, and another king bedroom that shares a Jack-n-Jill bath with the bunkroom. Each side of the Jack-n-Jill has its own sink and toilet, connected by a shared shower/tub combo. The bunkroom contains 2 full-over-full beds. The living room has a 75-inch Sony UHD 4K TV. The awesome ocean vistas can be seen from the 3rd floor deck which has rocking chairs and a swinging day bed.

The 2nd (bottom) floor contains four king bedrooms, 2 of which have ocean vistas. All 4 first floor king bedrooms have private baths and TVs. The 2nd floor also contains another full-size laundry room with the same 7.4 cubic ft GE washer and 4.5 cubic ft GE dryer located in the top floor laundry. Both contain an iron and ironing board and we provide laundry detergent and dryer sheets.

The ground level has an 8' x 18' private pool. (Modest, we know, but big pools at OIB are nearly non-existent because the lot sizes are so modest. If you are training for an Olympic swimming event, then our home may not be for you, but if you just need to take a dip every so often to cool off while you are laying out, then we have what you need). The pool can be heated in the spring and fall. The outdoor living space contains a lounge area with a TV and a gas grille, and the huge side yard is the ideal place for a game of cornhole. There is an enclosed outdoor shower with hot water.

In November 2024, we installed a Tesla Universal Wall Connector that provides Level 2 charging to Teslas and most non-Tesla EVs.

So you can pack a little lighter, we provide a beach cart for transporting chairs, coolers and other beach gear. The ground floor also contains enclosed storage space for your gear when not in use as well as another full-size refrigerator.

Linens are supplied at no additional charge -- 2 bath towels, 1 hand towel, 1 washcloth for each guest, sheets and pillowcases on each bed. We supply our own linens, so they are not the see-through kind you get from rental companies.

We have 1GB mesh WiFi through the home and outdoor living area. All bedrooms except the kids' bunkroom have Roku TVs so you can login to your favorite streaming app. The home also has 100+ channel cable TV.

The kitchen contains a 5-burner cooktop with pot filler, oven, microwave, 2 dishwashers, 2 fridges, a walk-in pantry, 2 coffee makers and a Keurig machine with a starter supply of K-cups. The enormous kitchen island has a prep sink and barstool seating for 6. The kitchen is completely outfitted with service for 20, pots, pans, bakeware, wine glasses, and all common kitchen gadgets.

Does your group have more than 20 people? No problem. Several of our neighbors have similarly large homes that can also sleep 20. Let us know and we'll help coordinate everything.

No family pets allowed and no smoking indoors.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect Carolina Beach rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

  • Summer is high season in Ocean Isle Beach. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
  • The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Booking your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
  • Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
  • Property management companies typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
  • Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with 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, selecting, and booking the rightrental:

  • Start by having your family commit to the best dates and a maximum budget.
  • Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. New 8BR\/7.5BA with Spectacular Ocean View, Elevator, Private Heated Pool has 8 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms.
  • Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible online. If not, email the host before you reserve the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
  • If there's a certain Carolina Beach destination you love, browse rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
  • Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking
  • Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.

Additional considerations:

  • Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
  • To make sure damages aren't linked to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas during check in. Call the rental manager right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
  • Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
  • Be a good neighbor. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
  • Lock your rental home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
  • Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Inspect the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition.
  • After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on great reviews to inspire new reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.

Victory Beach Vacations

Visitors who are on the hunt for the postcard-perfect vacation rental in the heart of the Carolina Beach or Kure Beach area will find an enticing selection and plenty of friendly customer service when they rent through Victory Beach Vacations. Based in Carolina Beach in the coastal Cape Fear region, Victory Beach Vacations has more than 100 vacation rentals in all shapes and sizes to ensure that every vacationing family can find their dream home away from home on the beach.   When you book your Cape Fear getaway with Victory Beach Vacations, the fun doesn’t end when you leave the beach, it continues with an array of privately-owned properties outfitted with all of the amenities needed for a fabulous beach vacation.   Jenna Lanier, General Manager, explains that her family first opened the rental and property management business in 2002. At the forefront of Victory Beach operations is Lanier’s mother, Caroline Meeks. Meeks is both the Broker in Charge and co-owner with husband, Buck Meeks, who manages the Field Services team with Lanier’s husband, Scott.   For nearly 20 years, the Victory Beach team has worked tirelessly to establish a network of top-of-the-line rental properties for Cape Fear visitors to enjoy. “As far as our properties go,” explains Lanier, “they are all updated, well-furnished and appointed. “We have always performed post-cleaning inspections and since the pandemic, have put freshly laundered duvets over all of the comforters between rentals.”   Lanier emphasizes how important the guests experience is “we strive to give our guests a relaxing, stress free, memorable vacation.” This emphasis on customer service has led to Victory Beach Vacations having a 4.8 Google rating with over 300 reviews by happy owners and guests.In addition to Victory Beach’s superior sanitation practices, the company offers properties for every type of visitor.

Many properties include pools and hot tubs as well, perfect for outdoor entertaining, and many are dog friendly.   Lanier also notes that all properties are within walking or driving distance to Pleasure Island’s main attractions – Carolina Beach and Kure Beach. The former, as described by Lanier, is the more commercialized of the two destinations and features a boardwalk, outdoor dining options and a plethora of weekly activities including fireworks, live music, amusement park pop-ups, and movies under the stars. Kure Beach offers a more residential feel with its fishing pier, intimate restaurants and family favorite, North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher.More water fun awaits, too. “There is a harbor and a canal that feed into the intercoastal. We have several properties on the harbor so guests can bring their boat, kayak, [or jet ski] and travel between islands,” says Lanier.   A stay with Victory Beach Vacations is an annual pilgrimage for most. “A large percentage of guests are previous guests. Some even reserve the same property for the next year as they’re checking out,” Lanier says. “It’s almost like it’s their personal vacation home.”   Even before guests arrive at their vacation destination, the Victory Beach Vacations’ website greets them with a live beach cam and exquisite aerial footage of both Carolina and Kure Beaches.
