  • Private vacation home

This beautiful property is ideal for your next island hideaway! Located in the private gated community of Dunescape, this East End neighborhood features pretty natural dunes, painless beach access, and spectacular inlet vistas.

Courtesy of the handsome covered wraparound porch, you can relax and savor the vistas of the rolling dunes to the East and the shining Atlantic to the South. Sip your morning coffee on the porch swing while watching the waves meet the shore and experience total serenity. You can also appreciate your evening hors d'oeuvres and drinks on the comfortable patio furnishings while listening to the relaxing sounds of coastal nature. Make a splash in the private pool or watch as your cares melt away in the Carolina sun while calming on the pool deck! Appreciate al fresco dinners prepared on the gas grille by the pool. Or enjoy a drink and the sunset around the gas fireplace table during the chillier months! The only thing that competes with the attractiveness of the outside of this home is inside! The open-flow concept of the kitchen, dining, and living areas offers striking vistas of the surrounding scenery. There are literally vistas from every window that showcase the beauty of Holden Beach.

Natural light and coastal chic decor are ample throughout this impressive home. In the cavernous kitchen, you will find everything needed to prepare your gourmet fresh catch. You will also find a coffee bar to help get your day of fun started off right with your favorite morning brew. Both a Keurig and drip coffee maker are included for your convenience. In the huge dining area, there is seating for four at the high-top bar and six at the striking dining room table. Just up the stairs, you will see your new favorite lounge area in the loft that overlooks even more spectacular vistas through the soaring windows of the great room. The ground level has a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a additional room for the kids to sleep and lounge. This additional room shares the bathroom with the bedroom on that level. There is also a garage area that leads out to the pool with an additional refrigerator to store cool beverages to enjoy in the sun. There is no ice maker in this freezer but plenty of room to store bags of ice that you can purchase locally. The upstairs refrigerator in the kitchen does have a normal ice maker.

The walk to the beach is a breeze. You can either access the beach from the public access across from the entrance to the Dunescape community (Dunescape Drive) or use the Dunescape community boardwalk. This boardwalk can be accessed by taking a right at the end of the driveway onto Windswept Way and following the street to where it intersects with Serenity Lane. The boardwalk is across from the intersection between 2 homes and leads to the beach strand. The Dunescape community also provides a community pool, tennis courts, a basketball court, a sand volleyball court, and beach access from the clubhouse. There is plenty of parking to enjoy these amenities if you decide to drive your car, rent a golf cart, or even take a leisurely walk.

This pool may be heated from September - May for an additional $500 fee per week. Please note that under optimal conditions, the pool can be heated 10 degrees above the outside temperature/max. of 87°F. Please call our office for more details as for optimal use, this service should be scheduled in advance.

Embrace the warmth of southern 'Hobbspitality'! Savor a welcome set of starter amenities, including one roll of paper towels, trash bags, laundry and dishwasher pods, dish soap, and a sponge. All bathrooms include one roll of toilet paper, trash bags, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion, makeup wipes, and bar soap. Your beds are made with fresh linens and a lightweight blanket, so you can jump right into making memories rather than making beds! While we provide a lightweight blanket, we urge you to bring additional layers for your comfort. Please note that while top bunk beds, trundles, sleeper couches, futons, and daybeds will not be made, we will provide fresh linens for them.

This owner also provides bath towel sets (one bath towel, one hand towel, and one washcloth) per occupancy for your convenience. Beach and pool towels are not supplied.
​​​​​​​

Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect vacation rental experience:

Getting the best value:

  • Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • Booking a rental in the Spring or Fall is a great way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
  • Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
  • Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
  • Many property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area travel guide magazines that include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your rental search:

  • Choose your vacation week and budget.
  • Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Hobbs Realty - New to the market, \"Carolina Pearl\" offers incredible inlet views and a heatable private pool. has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC vacation rental search.
  • Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
  • If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
  • If there's an individual Wilmington, NC destination you crave, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
  • Appropriate 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.

Considerations for your stay:

  • Be sure you get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few difficulties.
  • Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
  • To make certain no damages are linked to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the property manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
  • Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
  • Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
  • Did your family have a great stay? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.

Victory Beach Vacations

Visitors who are on the hunt for the postcard-perfect vacation rental in the heart of the Carolina Beach or Kure Beach area will find an enticing selection and plenty of friendly customer service when they rent through Victory Beach Vacations. Based in Carolina Beach in the coastal Cape Fear region, Victory Beach Vacations has more than 100 vacation rentals in all shapes and sizes to ensure that every vacationing family can find their dream home away from home on the beach.   When you book your Cape Fear getaway with Victory Beach Vacations, the fun doesn’t end when you leave the beach, it continues with an array of privately-owned properties outfitted with all of the amenities needed for a fabulous beach vacation.   Jenna Lanier, General Manager, explains that her family first opened the rental and property management business in 2002. At the forefront of Victory Beach operations is Lanier’s mother, Caroline Meeks. Meeks is both the Broker in Charge and co-owner with husband, Buck Meeks, who manages the Field Services team with Lanier’s husband, Scott.   For nearly 20 years, the Victory Beach team has worked tirelessly to establish a network of top-of-the-line rental properties for Cape Fear visitors to enjoy. “As far as our properties go,” explains Lanier, “they are all updated, well-furnished and appointed. “We have always performed post-cleaning inspections and since the pandemic, have put freshly laundered duvets over all of the comforters between rentals.”   Lanier emphasizes how important the guests experience is “we strive to give our guests a relaxing, stress free, memorable vacation.” This emphasis on customer service has led to Victory Beach Vacations having a 4.8 Google rating with over 300 reviews by happy owners and guests.In addition to Victory Beach’s superior sanitation practices, the company offers properties for every type of visitor. Choose from luxury oceanfront houses and condos to more reasonbly priced 2nd row properties with oceanviews. Many properties include pools and hot tubs as well, perfect for outdoor entertaining, and many are dog friendly.   Lanier also notes that all properties are within walking or driving distance to Pleasure Island’s main attractions – Carolina Beach and Kure Beach. The former, as described by Lanier, is the more commercialized of the two destinations and features a boardwalk, outdoor dining options and a plethora of weekly activities including fireworks, live music, amusement park pop-ups, and movies under the stars. Kure Beach offers a more residential feel with its fishing pier, intimate restaurants and family favorite, North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher.More water fun awaits, too. “There is a harbor and a canal that feed into the intercoastal. We have several properties on the harbor so guests can bring their boat, kayak, [or jet ski] and travel between islands,” says Lanier.   A stay with Victory Beach Vacations is an annual pilgrimage for most. “A large percentage of guests are previous guests. Some even reserve the same property for the next year as they’re checking out,” Lanier says. “It’s almost like it’s their personal vacation home.”   Even before guests arrive at their vacation destination, the Victory Beach Vacations’ website greets them with a live beach cam and exquisite aerial footage of both Carolina and Kure Beaches.
