Appreciate a modernized OCEANFRONT luxury duplex with extraordinary 270 degree south-facing vistas for all day sun on the beach! This family-friendly and immaculate home features an open main level with living/dining space, a remodeled kitchen, and main level queen bedroom. This versatile floor plan includes a 2nd floor with master suite with oceanfront vistas and two additional well-appointed bedrooms. The kitchen features granite countertops, tile backsplash, newer appliances, and is well supplied with every gadget and utensil needed to prepare sizable meals or accommodate take-out from the many eateries on the island.

Sit on the covered deck and watch the sun rise and set over the shining water. The home is positioned closer to the dunes and ocean than the neighboring homes for unobstructed vistas up and down the island. Watch the kids play on the beach from the deck or the many ocean-view windows in the home.

Savor an evening walk on the beach to multiple eateries on the island serving fresh seafood, steaks and exhilarating island drinks. Have dessert at the local ice cream shop before heading back for a calming nighttime listing to the ocean surf.

Holden Beach is a peaceful, family-friendly beach recognized as a top beach by USA Today and a top-10 beach by National Geographic Traveler’s Magazine. There are no hotels or high-rise complexes, just family owned cottages. Holden Beach is part of the barrier island chain in southeastern NC and is also located roughly 35 miles from Wilmington, NC and Myrtle Beach, SC -- making trips for shopping, eating and entertaining very convenient. Holden Beach is also well-located for 30 area golf courses.

We adore our “home away from home,” and our family has spent many years appreciating all that Holden has to offer. We would appreciate for you to choose to spend your vacation time at our property. Renting directly from the owner may be new to you (through Vacation Rental By Owner), but we appreciate helping our renters plan the ideal vacation and that will exceed your expectations.

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal Carolina Beach vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Holden Beach. To find the best value, consider changing your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and pick your prefect Carolina Beach vacation home:

• To start, have your family commit to dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Remodeled oceanfront home has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally available online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you book the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your family.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach beach you simply love, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make sure that damages are not attributed to your visit, record any problem areas upon your arrival. Speak to the host immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
