If you're looking for the ideal luxury beach rental on Oak Island for entertaining and appreciating the ocean breeze with family and friends, you've found it! Meant to Beach is an fantastic 5 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom pet-friendly home with a private pool, hot tub, 4 balconies (2 oceanside and 2 poolside), a pool table, and so much more. Plus, you can't get any closer to the Ocean Crest Pier than when you stay here — it's literally right across the street from beach access and all the amenities at the pier, like the oceanfront restaurant Island Way. Talk about the ideal location!

It was purposefully designed with a reverse floor plan to take advantage of the pretty ocean vistas from the main living area, kitchen, and dining spaces. Upon walking into this open floor plan on the top level, you'll be blown away by those vistas, vaulted ceilings, and high-end finishes throughout. There's an upsized sectional couch for snuggling up and watching your favorite shows on the huge flatscreen TV after a beach day or exploring the island. The elegant kitchen has granite countertops, a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances (including a double oven), and a cavernous kitchen island with bar seating for up to 4. One of the unique features of this home is the massive dining room table that turns into a pool table with an ocean view! How cool is that?

For those who can't wait to soak up the sun and relax, you'll find many outdoor spaces and plenty of seating options to do just that! The private pool area is a backyard getaway offering 6 lounge chairs and a set of Adirondack chairs. You'll find two oceanside balconies to watch the sunrise and the sunset over the Atlantic with your favorite drink in hand. Both of the two poolside balconies offer stairs leading all the way from the top floor to the ground level with the pool. The hot tub is one of our favorite spots to relax in the evening, especially after an afternoon of golf or walking around the local sights.

Back inside, the handsome interior design extends into the primary bedroom suite that features a opulent king-size bed, a sliding door that leads to the top balcony, and fresh coastal furnishings. The ensuite bathroom offers a spa-like experience with a bespoke tiled shower and double vanity. The half bathroom completes this top floor.

Heading downstairs, you'll find all four guest bedrooms — one king, one queen with ocean vistas, another queen, and then a bunk room with a double over single and trundle. Again, please note that the photos are different from the current configuration and will be refreshed soon. Two sets of Jack and Jill bathrooms on this level connect two of the bedrooms together. These bathrooms feature granite countertops, double vanities, and tub/shower combinations.

Oak Island vacation rental home tips and tricks:

Getting the most from your budget:

• To book the best vacation home for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Wilmington, NC attractions. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Some property management companies offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides which will include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• First, have your group decide on trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. 2nd Row Directly Across from Pier w\/ Private Pool, Hot Tub, and More has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.

Tips for your stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. Contact the property manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great reviews to compel new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
