Our home is oceanfront in Carolina Beach, North Carolina. It is an older style bungalow constructed in the 1940's and we added a third floor and modernized in 2003. Complete remodel in spring 2020.

There are great vistas with handsome porches and decks overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. In the Spring of 2008, the ground floor was added to the rental making it a full home rental. Full kitchen was refreshed on middle floor in 2011 with dishwasher and garbage disposal. All new appliances in 2020. Two master suites with mini refrigerator and coffee/tea bar in one. Bathrooms in the old part of the bungalow were remodeled with new tile showers in 2016.

The ground floor does have a separate entrance into a game room with a pool table. We freshly added a spiral staircase leading to the middle floor. This floor has one queen bedroom and full bath. A theater room is located on the ground floor with a big screen intelligent TV, popcorn machine and refrigerator. A new front loading washer and dryer were added to this floor in 2020.

Tricks and tips to get the optimal rental home experience:

When to visit Carolina Beach & When to book:

• Summertime is high season in Carolina Beach. Book your rental in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many rental management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting and booking a perfectrental home:

• Select your vacation dates and max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Oceanfront House-Sleeps 8-10 Rec Room and Theater Room has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is right for your family.
• If there's a certain Carolina Beach beach you are crazy about, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your . Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the property manager immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a excellent stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
