The appeal of this particular oceanfront condo is the ability to be very near everything Carolina Beach has to offer yet inside the security gates of this building, there is tranquility & peaceful, private covered parking and no need to really get back in the car to go back OTB (Over The Bridge as locals call it!) until check-out.

I am always available via text on my cell phone or the AirBnB app and I live and work in the area.

The town of Carolina Beach always has tons of activities going on at the boardwalk including fireworks, live music for example. Crush & Grind is a favorite coffee, beer, wine & apps place right next door. The Hampton has a cute Tiki Bar open to the public with ocean & boardwalk seating.

Our top Vacation rental booking tips:

Finding your best deal:

• To find the best rental home within your budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities.
• The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area visitors guides that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to select the best rental home:

• Start by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Facing the Beach\/Boardwalk Top Floor Views! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the property management company before reserving the home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• If there's a specific Wrightsville Beach destination you are enamored with, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge additional pet fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Make a record of any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
