The comfortable living room offers plenty of upsized seating to sink down into after an adventure-filled day and savor a favorite show on the wall-mounted Roku TV. The sturdy dining table seats four for meals or family game nights - three more can sit at the adjacent breakfast bar.

The convenient kitchen is outfitted with modern appliances and everything you'll need to prepare family recipes or the catch of the day. Thanks to the open-concept floor plan, the chef can still be part of the conversation while they work their magic. It's simple to make sure you don't get stuck with wet beach towels for the next day or the ride home, as the washer and dryer are located in the laundry closest just off the kitchen. A half bath is located in this area as well.

Down the hall, you'll find the bunk room, furnished with a queen bed and a twin-over-twin bunk bed. A Jack and Jill style bathroom with a shower connects through to a bedroom furnished with a king bed and a wall-mounted TV for personal entertainment. This room also features direct access to the unit's balcony, cheerfully decorated with metal sea life wall-sculptures and complete with string lights for a soft glow at nighttime. This covered porch is also accessible from the living room. The primary bedroom features a king size bed and its own TV as well, but this space also includes an ensuite bath featuring a shower so you can get ready in privacy.

Conveniently located in walking distance of fashionable local dining options, an arcade, beach stores, ice cream stores and nightlife, not to mention the sand and surf, this trendy condo complex also features charming community amenities. Take a dip in the pool to cool off, grille up some burgers and picnic at the supplied tables, and heave a sign of relief as you load your suitcases on the elevator instead of lugging it up the steps.

When you're ready to take a break from the everyday, Gone Beachin' is ready to welcome you!

This unit also accepts nightly and off-season monthly stays.

Please note that the pictured electric fireplace is not available for guest use.

The Ocean Walk pool is open annually from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Specific condo communities may keep the pool open past Labor Day depending on the homeowner association's recommendation.

Finding the best rental experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Reserve your Wilmington, NC vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have deals for local tours and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• Select a group lead, select your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Gone Beachin' : Dog-friendly Condo Close to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If not, email the property owner before booking the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or costs may be applied to your agreement.
• If there's an individual Wilmington, NC destination you are enamored with, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to stimulate future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
