There are complimentary concerts on the island every Friday evening from Memorial Day through Labor Day, and just off the island you will find many golf courses, eateries & entertainment.

This property cannot be used to host events or events. No smoking or no family pets are allowed in the unit. We are selective in terms of those we allow to utilize our beach condominiums – because these condominiums are also our home for part of the year. Many of our guests come back to our condominium year after year - some have been renting from us for 10 years or more.

My wife and I adore this friendly beach community which is our home for part of the year. We travel a lot and we want others to be able to experience this unique beach hideaway.

For nine-months out of the year this little beach community is peaceful and very private. It feels like our own private beach and our own private community. During the summer months (June, July and August) this little beach community is alive and very active. A great family resort - ideal for young kids. We have 7 young grandchildren – that is why we need 2 condos, and we get to see them regularly because they appreciate this place as much as we do.

If you like golf this place is like being in heaven - over 50 courses within a 30-mile radius - many are signature courses. If you like excitement, arts, eateries and entertainment - it is an painless commute to Myrtle Beach and to Wilmington North Carolina. If you like fishing it doesn't get any better than Ocean Isle Beach. However, our favorite evening gathering place is at the private beachfront deck with rockers overlooking the beach and the ocean – about a five-min. walk from our condos. We appreciate living here - we travel a lot but always look forward to returning to this very unique community.

Tenants are required to accept contract terms that govern the use of this property. These contract terms will be supplied upon booking.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Ocean Isle Beach. Book your rental in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine upon checking in. 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 information, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on local accommodations and attractions.

How to select the perfect rental home:

• Start by selecting your a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Condo 4A - 5 minute walk to beach, 3 BR fully renovated condo - great amenities has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the host before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a rental that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Is your group looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

Additional considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few problems.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas upon your arrival. Contact the rental manager right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent reviews to drive future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
