I want you to make lasting memories and think of this home as your favorite beach vacation while at Carolina Sea Paws at Carolina Beach, NC. I try to provide most everything you and your family or guests may need, so you can appreciate taking just 30 steps to the whites sandy beach, see the ocean waves, and hear the sounds and smell only the ocean can provide.
When you return from your fun and sun time at the beach, you can savor rinse off in your cool outdoor shower area and enjoy the warm breeze. After a refresh, have a family BBQ and enjoy the late afternoon. After you eat and talk about your day, listen to the ocean waves with mood lighting over and around your sitting area outdoors. This would be my ideal first day.
This bungalow has a laid back, friendly & family safe ambiance at my end of the Beach, but you are also close to the action. This unit is a chic open concept, with tasteful beach décor, a sizable L-shaped comfortable couch, and another couch in the "sunroom" area for additional seating. The Den has a 65" TV with a wall fireplace, and all the amenities you will need: i.e. high-speed internet, New HVAC- heat/AC, washer/dryer, linens, soaps, body wash/shampoo/conditioner, well outfitted kitchen and dinning area. All three beds are so cozy you may not want to get out of bed, but If you are an early riser, make a pot or pod of coffee and sit on the front deck or go to the beach and watch a handsome sunrise every morning.
You are only 3 blocks from the North End Pier & Grille & 1 mile to the historic Carolina Beach Boardwalk. There you can shop, listen to live bands, dine at a great local restaurant, & eat a famed Britt's Doughnut or Squigley's ice cream for dessert. Go to the beach or walk to the Boardwalk and see fireworks on Thursday nights during the summer, or rent a paddleboard, bicycle, Kayak, or rent the Carolina Sea Paws golf cart to ride around town and park for complimentary. You can even bring a chair and watch an outdoor family movie on the lake at Lake Park every other week.
(Unit Golf cart must be reserved and paid for prior to arrival. Email owner- New Golf Cart, see prices in my photos)
Rain or shine, you will have plenty to see or do or just relax while at Carolina Sea Paws.
FYI… Dogs are welcome 45 lbs or smaller and if they are completely home broken and friendly. However, there is a pet complimentary of $65 for one dog or $85 pet stay for two dogs. They will enjoy the fenced backyard and walking on the beach.

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are booked early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Summer is the most expensive season in the Wilmington, NC area. Reserve your vacation in Fall or Spring months to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Make a plan and pick your prefectrental:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. 30 Sec. to Beach, Sun, Sand & Waves & a Family & Pet Friendly Fenced Backyard has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before reserving your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of problems.
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the rental manager right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific source for finding the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
