Searching for the ultimate getaway for a coastal hideaway with your family, friends, and furry pals? Look no further than Sun and Waves — a splendid pet-friendly 3 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom vacation home on Oak Island! It's conveniently located between the beach and Montgomery Slough, giving you the best of both worlds: ocean and marsh vistas! Highlights include a private pool, multiple balconies, two massive primary suites (both with additional trundle daybeds), and so much more. Plus, it's a short walk to the beach and less than 2 miles from the Ocean Crest Pier, where you'll find oceanfront eateries and marvelous fishing.

Appreciate your morning coffee or the famed sunsets from one of the two oceanside balconies with your furry family members! The lower balcony features a bench swing and multiple chairs; it even has a gate to keep the doggies from going to the beach without you. The upper balcony offers spectacular ocean vistas and has a dining table ideal for playing games or eating together! Heading to the ground level, you'll find the cavernous private pool with wide steps and various multi-level spots for sitting and calming partially underwater. There's ample seating in this fenced-in area with two tables and multiple lounger chairs to relax in the sun or watch the stars together at nighttime. And when it's time for some beach waves, all you need are your leashes! Beach chairs and a wagon are supplied to make the fast walk to the shore a breeze.

Inside, you'll be greeted into the calming yet handsome living space with coastal vibes and comfortable couches to kick your feet up after a long day of fun in the sun! Turn on the tropical-weave ceiling fan for an interior breeze, and watch your favorite shows or movies on the flatscreen TV. The galley-style kitchen features granite countertops, a huge double sink, stainless steel appliances, and an abundance of extravagant cabinetry. Have a master griller in your group? There's even a gas grille on the back balcony to prepare your newly caught seafood and favorite recipes! When it's time to gather around for meals, you'll find a refined dining table with seating for up to 8 and a bar top area that seats up to 3. If you prefer dining outside, there are many options — including the bistro dining set on the back balcony, where you can overlook the marsh and pool.

The downstairs primary bedroom suite is enormous! It features a king-size bed, a flatscreen TV, and an ensuite bathroom with dual vanity, ample storage space, and a tub/shower combination. You'll also find an attached sunroom with a twin daybed with a twin trundle that can be closed off with a sliding door. The upstairs primary suite is just as broad and has a matching setup — king-size bed, ensuite with tub/shower combination, and additional sunroom with a twin daybed with a twin trundle. The third bedroom is located on the top floor and is great for the younger travelers in your group with themed comforters and 2 sets of bunk beds (one is a twin over twin, and the other is a double over double). It also has an ensuite bathroom featuring an extended vanity and a walk-in corner shower.

There's no way for us to list all of the amenities you'll find at Sun and Waves, like the half bath and laundry room combination on the main floor! There's even an outdoor shower with hot/cold water and wireless internet if you need to stay connected while you're here. Sound like the ideal hideaway for you and your group? Book your stay today!

Wilmington, NC vacation rental tips and tricks:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the most suitable rental within budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. 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 articles, visitor guides have deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking the right Wilmington, NC rental home:

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. 3rd Row w\/ Private Pool, 2 Primary Suites & VIEWS has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you book the home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .

More tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your vacation.
• Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. 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 your family have a wonderful time? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
