Our home is 3 BR/2B beach bungalow that is a block from the beach. We have private beach access because we own property on the island. There are two accesses.

We refreshed the kitchen with new countertops, stove, constructed-in-microwave, and dishwasher. The refrigerator is very cavernous. We have a washer and dryer in the kitchen for your use.

Tricks and tips to get the best Holden Beach vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer is high season in the Wrightsville Beach area. Booking a rental in Fall or Spring months is an excellent way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain money saving offers on local accommodations and attractions.

Choosing and booking the perfectrental home:

• To start, have your group choose the best dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. On Holden Beach Island has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is almost always available on booking websites. If not, email or call the host before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out which bed configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• If there's a particular Wrightsville Beach beach you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Request information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your visit, make note of any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the rental manager right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss 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 comments.
