Surf Watcher is a very versatile home. In there you can organize from your loud and busy family or friends' reunion to staying in a calming home, appreciating the beach and nature that Sunset Beach and its surroundings offer.

This home has comfortable rooms that sleep 14 people, long tables to eat inside, and a great round table on the deck, that personally, I appreciate having my breakfast during my stay, enjoying the sounds of the waves and the warm weather.

It has four (4) bedrooms each with its own bathroom.

Room 1: King bed, bathroom with shower

Room 2: Twin & Twin, bathroom with bathtub.

Room 3: Queen & 2 Bunk beds, bathroom with bathtub.

Room 4: Queen & Queen, bathroom with shower.

Living Area: Queen Sleeper and half bathroom.

At our top floor terrace, you will be able to see handsome sunrises and sunsets and late at nighttime, the stars. However, if you are a sunset lover, I recommend you walking to the boardwalk and seeing the sun drowning in the water. And because you are there, you can check out s few stores where you can buy souvenirs and ice cream, turning this walk into something to do after dinner.

Everyone asks us how close the beach from the home is, well is as closest as it can be, and this home has a cute rainbow path that guides you from the yard to the boardwalk, few stones away ????. Of course, if you don’t want to go through nature you can walk from the beach entrance walking from the front home.

As you can see in our amenities, we provide a long list of things to appreciate your time inside and outside the home, from kitchen supplies, ice cone machine, to beach chairs and beach toys. You are welcome to use them. Remember this is a family home so please take care of the stuff. We try to update our home supplies and furnishings very often to offer you always the best of the best.

For the pet lovers, unfortunately, we do not accept them, not because we don’t adore them, but to keep the home clean for the next guests. Also, we are smoke-complimentary.

At the end and before every staying, a professional cleaner comes to clean and disinfect the whole home and stocking the home for the next guests.
Even though we, the owners, are not in Sunset Beach, we are one call, text, or e-mail away for any assistant you need. If you need assistance, we have local people ready to help.

Strategies to get the optimal Carolina Beach rental experience:

When to go & When to reserve a rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Sunset Beach. To find the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides have offers and deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Selecting and booking the best Carolina Beach vacation home:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Sunset Beach Large Oceanfront Rental Home has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, call the property manager before you book the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Carolina Beach beach you crave, search for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs may be applied to your agreement.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Record any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on great feedback to compel more bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
