Located on Dolphin Drive, this third-row home's location is a happy mix of a coastal hideaway and a welcoming neighborhood. Appreciate riding bicycles on the peaceful street during a sunny afternoon or listening to the sound of birds and ocean waves as you sip your morning coffee on the covered porch.

This home has a fenced-in yard, so your kids can play with the safety and privacy of a border. Take the whole family and savor a meal cooked on the grille on the outdoor picnic table or take a dip in the private pool on those hot summer days.

The living room contains plenty of comfortable seating for the whole crew. Plenty of natural light ensures a bright and airy feel. The dining room table seats eight and overlooks the water, so you can watch the pelicans soar across the shoreline during mealtimes. There are four additional seats at the bar in the kitchen, which includes all the cooking basics you need for your stay.

There is one king bed and en-suite bath on the upstairs. Downstairs guests will find three bedrooms, including two king beds, one twin over double bunk bed and a twin with a twin trundle. Each bedroom has a T.V. so guests can split up to watch their favorite shows or movies.

This rental is close to many local stores and eateries. It is a four-min. walk to the Ocean Crest Fishing Pier and Island Way, a gorgeous oceanfront restaurant just beside the pier. Take a short walk to the Sea Biscuit Wildlife Center to watch their extraordinary volunteers rehabilitate our beach birds. There's tons to adore at Shore Thing!

Strategies to get the perfect rental experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

  • In the Carolina Beach area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked early. Booking your vacation rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To find the best value, shift your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
  • Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
  • Property managers frequently offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
  • Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines have discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning and choosing yourrental:

  • Begin by choosing your the best vacation week and a budget.
  • Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Shore Thing: Home with Ocean and Marsh Views, Private pool and Elevator has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rental home search.
  • Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is usually available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your trip.
  • If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
  • Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
  • Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

Additional considerations:

  • We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
  • Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
  • Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
  • At Check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
  • Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
  • Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Inspect the rental one final time and scan for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
  • Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on great feedback to compel new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.

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.

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.
