About this Property

• Sleeps 2
• 1 Bedrooms
• 1 Bathrooms
• Condo

Welcome to Sailfish in Carolina Beach! You will have access to the first floor of this bungalow. It features one bed and one bath, a front porch, and steps away from the sand! We are three homes back from the ocean, and you get a sliver of a view from the front porch! Looking for a calming time, ambiance? This is it!

This striking first floor unit is light and cavernous! The comfortable sectional in the living room is the ideal place to relax after a day at the beach. The kitchen, with a subway tile back splash and retro modern refrigerator, is supplied with the essentials you'd need to savor a home cooked meal during your stay. It is open to the dining area with plenty of seating. The roomy bedrooms features a king size bed with cozy linens. The bathroom has been refreshed with tile floors and subway tile walls. One of the best parts of this unit is the front porch where you can appreciate your morning coffee while taking in the sea breeze.

We are located a block from the beach in one direction and a block from the intracoastal in the other, so you are never very far from the water!

Guests will have access to the entire downstairs unit in the bungalow. There is a locked owner's closet for our storage, but other than that everything inside is at your disposal. There may be guests staying in the upstairs unit during your stay, but it has a completely separate entrance.

There is a parking spot for 1 car in the driveway in front of the home.

Please be sure to review our cancellation policy prior to making your reservation. We strongly recommend purchasing trip insurance at the time of booking.

Tips and Tricks for getting the best Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

Getting the best value:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the largest rental home within budget, we recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane 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 more information.
• Many management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

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

• Select your vacation dates and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Sailfish B - Close to the Beach has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the host before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the host right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
