  • Private vacation home
  • Approximately 2300 square feet

Welcome to your Carolina Beach (aka, "Pleasure Island") hideaway, where the sound of waves, ocean breezes, and thoughtfully designed spaces create the ideal backdrop for your vacation. Just a 5-min. walk to the ocean, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home is ideal for families and groups looking to savor sun-filled beach days and casual coastal evenings.

Start your morning with coffee on the top deck, where ocean vistas stretch toward the horizon. Spend afternoons grilling fresh seafood in the cavernous backyard, with plenty of room for dining and games. After a day in the sun, relax on the screened porch, a peaceful getaway for an evening beverage or a peaceful moment with a book.

Inside, the open-concept layout makes gathering simple, whether you're cooking in the completely equipped kitchen, playing board games in the living room, or sharing a meal around the dining table. When it’s time to rest, the primary suites offer private escapes—one with a deep soaking tub for the ultimate relaxation.

Living Room
As you step inside, you’re welcomed into a bright and airy living space designed for connection and comfort. The comfortable, sectional couch invites you to lay back and relax after a day at the beach, whether you’re streaming a movie on the enormous intelligent TV, listening to your favorite music using our XM Radio stereo receiver, or playing one of the many board games available for a comfortable nighttime in. Natural light fills the space, and painless access to the outdoor decks lets you seamlessly transition between indoor calming and fresh ocean air.

Kitchen and Dining
Cooking here is a enjoyment, with a entirely supplied gourmet kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, ample counter space, handsome concrete counters, a impressive wood island, and all the essentials you need to prepare everything from fast breakfasts to family feasts. The dining table and stools at the wood island provide the ideal space to gather for homemade meals or takeout from one of Carolina Beach’s many local eateries. The open layout keeps everybody connected, and when the weather is just right, take your meal out to the screened porch and dine al fresco.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms
Each bedroom is designed with rest and relaxation in mind, ensuring that everybody in your group has a calming place to getaway.

Primary Suite #1:

Outdoor Spaces:
Step outside and find plenty of spaces to soak up the fresh air and coastal appeal.

The top, upper deck (accessible from 2nd floor primary suite or Guest BR #3) offers an ocean view making it the ideal spot for your morning coffee or sunset drinks.

The spacious, grassy backyard is ideal for family cookouts, with a sizable picnic table (not pictured) and gas grille ready for your fresh seafood feast. The outdoor patio offers fully fenced-in space for kids to play hopscotch, tag, and other outdoor games (numerous supplied). And after a long day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower before heading inside. If you’re looking for a peaceful moment, the backyard screened porch offers a shaded, breezy getaway, where you can sip a glass of wine, enjoy bird watching while eating a meal, or dive into a great beach-read—and the 4 stacks of bookshelves in the living room provide you with all the reading material you could possibly want!

How to book the best Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Finding your best deal:

  • June, July, and August are high season in Carolina Beach. To book the best rental home for your budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
  • In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
  • Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
  • Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
  • Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides which will include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

  • Choose your vacation week and max budget.
  • Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Terrapin Station - Ocean Views; 5-Min Walk to Beach; Large Yard w\/ Grill has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
  • Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the host before you reserve the rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
  • If there's a particular Wilmington, NC attraction you simply love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
  • Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
  • Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

More considerations:

  • Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
  • Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if there is a dispute.
  • Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
  • Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
  • Lock your rental while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
  • On check-out day, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good feedback to drive new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.

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.
