Begin your next Oak Island beach vacation with a check in at Red Roof Inn! This third-row home is located in walking distance of Ocean Crest Fishing Pier and features multiple porches and a entirely fenced backyard from which to savor the fresh sea air and the sounds of the waves.

Hang out in the comfortable and bright living room to watch a movie on the enormous wall-mounted intelligent TV, or select one of the supplied board games or puzzles to lay out on the coffee table instead. A constructed in bench along the back wall offers the ideal perch for pulling on shoes before heading down to the beach. Down the hall, a laundry room with a full-sized washer and dryer connects through to a full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo.

The adjacent kitchen provides tons of cabinet and counter space for preparing and storing ingredients, including a double sink ideal for rinsing off fresh local produce. Whether you plan to order in from local eateries or prepare lavish three-course meals from scratch, you’ll have everything you need to dine in style. The close by dining nook is furnished with a sturdy wooden table that seats six, and an additional four seats are available at the breakfast bar.

When it’s time to settle everybody in for the evening, you’ll find all sleeping spaces located on the second floor of the home. At the top of the stairs, another full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo is shared by the three bedrooms around the corner. The first bedroom is furnished with a twin bed that has a pullout twin trundle underneath. The modest desk and chair is a convenient work station for those who are unable to completely avoid homework during their stay! The two queen bedrooms offer wall-mounted intelligent TVs for personal entertainment.

The master suite is also furnished with a queen bed and features an arm chair, wall-mounted intelligent TV, and an en suite bathroom complete with a glass and tile step in shower stall. Finest of all, there is direct access to a private covered porch that offers ocean vistas! Savor your morning coffee or evening beverage from the bistro table and chairs as you watch the sunlight reflect on the waves beyond.

There is also a partially covered porch below with access from the ground floor or living room and plenty of room for the whole group! Dine al fresco at the outdoor table that seats six under the shaded portion of the deck or soak in the sun’s rays from classic wooden rocking chairs further forward. The back deck overlooks the completely fenced, grassy backyard where little ones can play safely. An enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water under the home makes rinsing the sand off after a trip to the beach super painless, and a gas grille is supplied for cooking out.

When the time comes to hit the sand, you have the choice of two public beach accesses within 1000 feet of your doorstep. Set up by the pier via the 16th Place East beach path for convenient access to dining options and refreshments, or venture further east to the 19th Place East access if you prefer to set up further from the pier. Or turn away from the sea to meander along the 19th Place East spectacular walkway over Davis Canal, which offers phenomenal wildlife viewing opportunities and a photogenic gazebo. When your adventures for the day are done, scan the horizon and let the namesake feature of Red Roof Inn guide you back to your home away from home.

Our top Wilmington, NC vacation rental home tips and tricks:

When to reserve a Wilmington, NC rental & When to go:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts offer special rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on local accommodations and attractions.

How to select the best rental home in the Wilmington, NC area:

• To start, have your group decide on vacation dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Red Roof Inn: Ocean Views, Coastal Comfort, Close to Pier has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you book the rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what is best for your family.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC beach you simply love, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

More considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your visit, make a record of any problem areas during arrival. Call the property manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a terrific stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
