The space
Ground Level:
- Parking in paved driveway and under home
-Walk straight out to the beach
-Storage closet full of beach toys: pool floats, 8 beach chairs, Shibumi shade, sand toys, bicycles for all ages (including 4 adult beach cruisers, 6 kids bicycles, 2 scooters and a bicycle carrier), beach ski ball, corn hole, 2 inflatable paddle boards, 2 kids kayaks, 1 double inflatable adult kayak, 1 single traditional adult kayak (kayak launch for canal leading to intracoastal waterway .3 mile walk from home at SE 9th St), pickle ball rackets, tennis rackets, sand toys and beach towels

Main Level
-Living Room: Wall-to-wall windows showcasing the shining elevated pool and glittering ocean beyond, comfortable seating, 75" intelligent TV and fireplace.
-Dining Area: The open layout accepts for groups to sit and play board games around the upsized, bespoke dining table, while chatting with those taking in the view from the living room or prepping a family dinner in the kitchen.
-Kitchen: Brand new kitchen, entirely supplied to facilitate feeding sizable groups, additional seating available at the peninsula.
-Bedroom 1: Main Level King: Unobstructed beach vistas, a king bed, intelligent TV, and an ensuite with an additional deep soaking tub.
-Bedroom 2: Kids room (modest, no ensuite) - Twin bunk bed and generous toys and a intelligent TV, accepting for a dedicated play spot for the kids when they need a break from the surf and sun. Note the bottom bunk is a tri fold twin bed that can be folded for additional play space under the play home. This room is very tiny and has no en-suite and is best suited for kids.
-Exterior: The elevated pool deck overlooking the beach and ocean has everything a group needs for the ideal beach trip. Between the outdoor shower to rinse off, propane grille for cookouts, stairs leading directly to the beach, and ample outdoor seating including loungers, an outdoor dining table, and a conversation set surrounding the fire pit, your group may never make it inside. Savor evenings with the sounds of the ocean and the crackling fire or gaze at the stars from the hot tub as everybody unwinds from playing pool basketball or volleyball and splashing in the ocean all day. Please note, the pool can be heated for $100/day.

Second Level
-Bedroom 3: King-sized bed with sliding glass doors accessing a second-level deck for unobstructed, expansive beach vistas. This room has an ensuite, intelligent TV, and walk-in closet.
-Bedroom 4: This room mirrors bedroom 3, with a king bed, sliding glass doors out to the second level deck, ensuite, intelligent TV and walk-in closet.
-Bedroom 5: This room includes a queen bed, twin bed and intelligent TV. A modest closet is located in the ensuite for this room.
-Bedroom 6: The bunk room was designed to sleep up to eight kids with two full over full bunk beds and includes a intelligent TV and ensuite with a separate toilet room for privacy, double vanity and huge bathtub/shower combo. If the adults get too boring, this room also provides an escape for the younger members of the group with a enormous TV, a kid play couch and bean bag chairs, as well as a Wii.
-Deck: The second level deck is accessed through bedrooms 3 and 4, but offers ample space for the whole group for unobstructed stargazing at nighttime, sunrise coffee or a sunset viewing event. One of our favorite things about Oak Island is that it offers handsome sunrises and sunsets, so we wanted to ensure we offer the ideal place to take in both.
-Loft: The mini refrigerator, microwave, toaster and coffee makers provide slow, simple mornings for those who prefer to sip their coffee in private on the upper balcony before interacting with the bigger group in the kitchen. There is a TV and the play couch and bean bag chairs can be moved here from the bunk room for an additional viewing area.
-Washer/Drier: The brand new washer and drier will quickly get your swim suits ready for another day in the sun.

**Please note, although we have 6 bedrooms, we have priced it equal to comparable 5 BR properties because our rooms are on the modest side and the sixth bedroom is really only comfortable for kids.**

Note to Parents: As a mom of four young kids, my passion for owning a vacation rental comes from my want to provide the ideal space to create family memories and savor family vacations that really feel like a vacation, even while chasing tiny humans. Because of that, every decision in the build process took into account how to best serve families with kids to maximize fun, safety and sleep. For example, two of the king rooms have walk in closets large enough to contain a pack n play and have no outlets or light switches within a kid's reach, there is only one door from the home to the pool and it has a latch out of kids's reach, the outdoor entrance to the pool also has a gate, we chose round door knobs because they can be childproofed easier and we have a sound machine and black out curtains in every room. Additionally, don't worry about packing your infant gear, because if a kid, toddler or infant can use it, we probably have it (but definitely check the list below or message me to make sure).

Strategies for getting the perfect vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Wrightsville Beach area. Booking a rental in the Spring or Fall is a good way to save money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area visitor guides which include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and choosing the rightvacation home:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. New Construction-Beachfront-Private Pool, heat option-Hot Tub-Elevator-6BR 5.5BA has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available online. If not, email the property manager before you book your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out which bed configuration is best for your vacation group.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's a specific Wrightsville Beach destination you simply love, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Additional considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your phone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of problems.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• During check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
