This unique beach bungalow on Oak Island offers a impressive view of the Atlantic Ocean from every room! You will notice there are no neighbors or structures between you and your private ocean backyard for 180 degrees! From the wrap-around porch, you can see close by Bald Head Island, plus the Oak Island Lighthouse and Oak Island Pier - all at one beautiful glance.

This relaxing location is ideal for a vacation. Cyclists can savor an invigorating ride on the beach. Runners will like the ideal compacted sand. You can swim, ride waves, or simply sun-bathe. Do yoga on the porch, inhaling the intoxicating ocean breeze. Fix your favorite foods in the kitchen with its spectacular view!

The home provides access to numerous diverting attractions. Walk to Caswell Beach, a natural turtle sanctuary with more than 55 turtle nests. Savor the island's many friendly eateries. Bicycle to a lighthouse you can climb. Drive to the appealing oceanside village of Southport. Take the ferry to Bald Head Island or Fort Fisher and the Aquarium. Shop in Wilmington or close by Myrtle Beach.

For the most extraordinary location, there’s a restaurant right at our pier called Koco Kabana. It’s Oceanview and very good food. For Thai food we recommend Thai By The Sea-take out only. It’s just a few blocks away from the home. For great Italian food we recommend multiple eateries but probably Joseph’s the most. It’s on the intercoastal right by the boat docks. For a great clean grass fed steak we recommend Traquil Harbor-they delivered our dinner to our door yesterday and it was definitely delicious. It’s across the street from the Food Lion and not fancy but great vegetables and food. Duffers is at the Oak Island Country Club, is delicious and only 2 mins. away. We would also highly recommend you going to Southport for numerous striking eateries there that are very “hole in the wall” but completely classic. That would include Fishy Fishy, Provisions, Mr. P. and Oliver’s. This is for the local seafood. And, plan on walking around the older parts of Southport because it is really striking. Many older homes have survived all the hurricanes for some striking reason. And it’s charming.

Finest of all, appreciate some healing relaxation in this glorious natural setting. Make this special ocean-side bungalow your vacation choice today! This home if for peaceful beach lovers.

Booking the best Oak Island rental home experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Oak Island rental home:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Oak Island. Reserving a rental home in the Spring or Fall is an excellent way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines have coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

How to pick the best rental home:

• Select dates and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Ocean Front Beach Cottage-180 degrees ocean view from every room and L-deck has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property manager before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what is optimal for your vacation family.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of issues.
• Lock your rental while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Note any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just before checking out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to compel future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. 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 solve it.
