Welcome to the Ibis Cottage, a comfortable home located in the heart of Oak Island. Located on the beach side, you can have your toes in the sand within a 3-min. walk, or take a walk over to 49th Street Restaurant for dinner and drinks. Located blocks away from Publix Grocery and Middleton Park, you are close to all the action but not too close. Take full advantage of the calming and cavernous covered front porch to appreciate the handsome outdoors or discover the island on one of four beach cruisers.

Freshly constructed and furnished in 2021, the Ibis Cottage features coastal décor with wood accents and neutral tones. With a pretty open concept, the main floor offers an abundance of natural light with vaulted ceilings. The completely equipped kitchen is completely open to the dining room, which accommodates up to six adults for a seated meal together. Prefer to dine outdoors? Set the outside dining table for dinner instead, conveniently located just off the kitchen under the screened back porch. In the kitchen, you will be pleasantly greeted with all stainless steel appliances and plenty of counter space. The living room is roomy and comfortably furnished for hanging out with family and friends. The focal point of this space is the 65” Samsung flat-screen TV. A guest bath can be found between the living room and guest bedrooms.

All three bedrooms are on the main floor of this home; the master suite with king bed, 50” Samsung flat screen and private bath, a guest bedroom with two twin beds (one with trundle) and 40" flat screen TV, and an additional guest bedroom with queen bed and 40” flat screen TV. Unwind and take in the serene setting of live oak treetops and blue sky from the interior living and outdoor decks. The Master bedroom has shared access to the back deck through sliding glass doors.

With so much outdoor space, plan to prepare out on the simple-to-use gas grille, or grab your favorite book and relax in the hammock under the shaded deck and live oaks.

Once settled in, the Ibis Cottage really becomes a home away from home, but better because it’s at the beach.

Oak Island vacation rental booking tips:

Find your perfect rental:

• Summer is the most expensive season in the Wrightsville Beach area. To find the largest rental within budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Wrightsville Beach area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and pick the perfect Wrightsville Beach rental home:

• Choose a group leader, select your trip dates, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. NEW!—IBIS COTTAGE—Beach side retreat. Prime location with Bikes and Beach gear! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If not, email the property owner before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's an individual Wrightsville Beach beach you love, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Upon arrival, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your life at home. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
