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 modren open concept, with tasteful beach décor, a huge 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.

How to find the best Wilmington, NC vacation rental experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Summer is high season in Carolina Beach. To find the largest rental home for your budget, we recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which will include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your search:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. 30 Sec. to Beach, Sun, Sand & Waves & a Family & Pet Friendly Fenced Backyard has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rentals search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before you book your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or may be applied to your contract.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC attraction you simply love, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
