This comfortable and stylishly refreshed 2 bedroom/2 bath beachfront condo is on the first floor of a well-maintained unit. It is, literally, steps from the pool and the beach. Very few stairs to climb and no need to even put on your flip-flops. The living area features modern furnishings including a queen size sleeper/couch, 42” flat-screen TV with DVD player, modest ipod/MP3 docking station, and a photo-faux fireplace.

Sculpted glass French doors leading to the master bedroom provide privacy while filling the room with light. This room has a king-sized bed and 22" T.V.. The master bath has been completely modernized with fashion plumbing and a bespoke tile double shower. A touch of cleanly decadence. The second bedroom has a new bunk set, a queen on the bottom and a twin on the top. The guest bath has also been refreshed and features a tub/shower combo, tile floor and wainscoting, and updated vanity & toilet.

The private patio can be accessed from either the master bedroom or the living room. Four bar-height eucalyptus deck chairs make for comfortable seating while you take in the vistas of the dunes and listen to the crashing waves.

The kitchen has also been completely refurbished with new counter tops, floors, lighting, glass tile backsplash, fresh paint, and a bar-height table big enough to seat six for dining or games. It is completely equipped with everything you will need from a coffee maker in the morning to a blender in the evening.

There is complimentary WIFI and on-site washer/dryer for your convenience. Central heat/air promise year round comfort. Sorry, but our condo association does NOT allow family pets, and there is NO SMOKING.

Along with sand and surf, Carolina Beach offers a wide variety of family fun! The photogenic beach boardwalk is only ½ mile from the condo. It is the ideal place to find beach units, bicycles, golf carts, bars & eateries, and gift stores. During the summer months there are even amusement rides and games. Around the corner are the docks with event boats and no shortage of charter fishing boats to make your angling dreams come true. A few blocks to the north is Freeman Park where you can drive on the wide-open beach for a private sunbathing spot or a nighttime-time bonfire. 4x4s are required.

A short drive to the south end of the island brings you to Ft. Fisher, the site of one of the last battles of the Civil War and the North Carolina Aquarium at Ft. Fisher where you can get up close to sharks, loggerhead turtles, and Luna - the rare albino alligator. Just beyond that you can catch the car ferry across the mouth of the Cape Fear River to the cozy town of Southport with even more shopping, eateries, galleries, and fun.

Thirty mins. inland is the striking downtown area of Wilmington, NC. Set on the banks of the Cape Fear River, an simple walk along the river boardwalk takes you to stores, eateries, and antebellum homes. Appreciate a horse-drawn carriage tour, then take the short drive across the drawbridge to visit the USS North Carolina - the WWII era battleship moored permanently within view of downtown.

Come appreciate a little slice of beach heaven!!

Tips for getting the perfect Brunswick area rental experience:

Get the best value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in Carolina Beach. To find the largest rental home within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Brunswick area restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your family qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitor guide magazines which often include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a designated group leader, select your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Steps to the Pool + Beach! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is normally available on booking pages. If not, call the property owner before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what is optimal for your trip.
• If there's a certain Brunswick area attraction you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your family is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge additional pet fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• During arrival, note any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to stimulate future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
