Are you ready for a new day, A New Tide? Then it’s time to seize the moment and take that beach vacation you’ve been dreaming about! Look no further than this coastal cool oceanfront home on Oak Island’s west end that features a private, seasonal swimming pool. Awash in natural light and decorated with the colors of the sand and the sea, your group will really find a home away from home here. That home can also welcome up to two dogs per reservation, so pack up the whole crew for adventures by the sea.

Upon entering the home from the central staircase, follow the hallway to the right before taking a fast left. There’s a sense of anticipation as you turn out of the hallway where beauty awaits you. South-facing windows frame awe-inspiring vistas of the Atlantic Ocean. The open concept living area echoes the beauty just outside the door.

In the southeast corner of this space sits the living area. Light streams in from windows that punctuate the vaulted ceiling and falls on a sizable sectional couch and two side chairs laid out to encourage conversation. A TV sits against the east wall, next to a modest round table with chairs that offers an ideal location for card games, puzzles and more. Against the neutral backdrop of the walls and furnishings, guests will find tonal blues throughout the decorative pillows and vases. Warm wood accents and other thoughtfully selected décor create and aura of welcoming relaxation.

In the southwestern corner of the open living area lies the dining table, which has seating for six and spectacular ocean vistas around every corner. Four Parisian blue and white bistro stools at the kitchen counter expand the available seating.

From the same kitchen counter, guests can prep memorable family meals or even share clean-up duties for the day without losing sight of the glistening waves. Besides this great prep space, the kitchen features white shaker-style cabinets, an ocean blue subway tile backsplash, quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances.

After long, joy-filled days on the beach, A New Tide’s four bedrooms offer guests comfortable spaces to rest their heads. The first bedroom is located on the first floor, in the northwest corner of the home. This bedroom is furnished with a queen bed draped in a white textured quilt that is accented by a blue throw with a shell motif. Two side tables flank the bed and a dresser and chair round out the room. This bedroom shares a hall bathroom with the second bedroom located on this level. The second bedroom is a great space for the teens or kids in your group as it’s outfitted with one double bed and a twin-over-twin bunk bed. There is also a dresser and shark and mermaid décor to add to the fun of this room.

As you head upstairs, look up to take in the delicate shell chandelier bathed in natural light from the huge windows in this space. The remaining two bedrooms are located on the second floor. The third bedroom is a enormous master suite in the southwestern corner of this level decorated in contrasting black and white. This space features a king bed, sliding glass doors with expansive vistas, a dresser and even a dedicated work space with a TV. The ensuite bath feature his-and-her sinks.

The fourth and final bedroom is located in the northeastern corner of the second floor and is a boho-inspired dream filled with calming neutrals and palm branch décor. This room is furnished with two doubles, a bedside table, an armoire with constructed-in mirror and a blue upholstered rattan chair. Peek outside the window for vistas of the Intracoastal Waterway across the street.

Extensive families will also appreciate the loft located on the second floor. This area overlooks the living room and features a couch, T.V. and game table. Don’t let the fun stop here though. A New Tide also offers fun outdoor games like ladder ball and corn hole. With all this vacation home has to offer, are you ready to experience the fun for yourself? Then don’t resist the pull of the tides. Whether you’re looking to book a summer week, a nightly stay of three nights or more in the off season or an off-season monthly rental, A New Tide is ready to welcome you to Oak Island!

Our top Rental property booking tips and tricks:

Finding your perfect rental:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the largest rental home within your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces 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 rate.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have money saving offers on local tours, shops, and attractions.

Selecting the best vacation rental in the Wilmington, NC area:

• Begin by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. A New Tide: Stylish, Dog-friendly Coastal Home with Pool has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property manager before reserving your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Have a great stay:

• Add the host's phone number to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• During check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss 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 feedback.
