Welcome to Ru Ru's by the Sea on Bald Head Island, North Carolina.
Located in the peaceful and beautiful community of Ibis Roost, Ru Ru's by the sea is a place to savor all of the Bald Head Island magic located in the serene maritime forest. Our 3 bedroom and 3 bathroom bungalow is steps away from a very private community pool shared only by neighbors within the Ibis Roost community. With two beach cruisers, razor scooters as well as two golf carts (two four-passenger carts), we are located only mins. away from multiple beach access locations as well as the Maritime Market and other trendy shopping locations in the Maritime Forest.
BHI is our happy place and we hope you experience all the magic that we have grown to appreciate. To make our home fun for your vacation, we have chosen furnishing and decor particularly with families in mind. The location of RuRu's by the Sea is ideal for a family. The kids will appreciate a swim in the private pool before bedtime making mom and dad's job all the easier. Run, do not walk, to the screened in porch to appreciate a peaceful glass of wine as the kids doze off from a fun day at the beach. Bicycle, cart or walk to discover the close by beaches or the wonder of the maritime forest.
Ru Ru's by the sea is a 1500 sq foot bungalow in the Ibis Roost community. The Ibis Roost neighborhood is made up of 29 cottages on a peaceful cul-de-sac off of the main roads of the island - ideal for cycling and walking even with little ones! RuRu's is directly across from the shared community pool.
Our bungalow features three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Downstairs, you will find a king master bedroom with ensuite bathroom. The second main floor bedroom features a queen bed and twin bed with a full bath just across the hall. The main living area room is open concept to the dining room with plenty of comfortable seating and space to spread out. The third bedroom is upstairs via loft and has two twins and a full sized bed.
The kitchen was completely refreshed in 2021 with brand new appliances and cabinetry.
The upstairs open loft area is the ideal space for kids and teens, or even for a modest family to share. The bedroom features two twin over twin bunk beds.
New floors were installed in 2021 throughout the home as well as new wall to wall carpet. All bedrooms as well as the living room are equipped with intelligent T.V.s.
Off of the living room is a cozy screened in porch with adore seat and chair where you can relax under the breeze of a ceiling fan listening to the many relaxing sounds of the forest.
