Our bungalow features an inviting open floor plan, where the kitchen seamlessly flows into the living area, making it the ideal gathering spot for your family and friends before and after your beach adventures. You can relax on the roomy sectional or gather around the farmhouse table for meals and games.

The bungalow features enchanting coastal colors and décor throughout, creating a cheerful and casual ambiance. All of our bathrooms have been completely remodeled with modern vanities and handsome tile work.

Appreciate the cavernous front porch that spans the entire length of the home, offering a ideal spot to listen to the relaxing waves or people watch year-round. The back porch provides a pretty view of the canal, adding to the appeal of our coastal getaway. And yes, we're pet-friendly, so you can bring your furry family members along for the fun!

For those looking to discover the area, our bungalow is conveniently located on Main and 6th, just a short walk from stores and the delicious Sunset Slush in the heart of the island.

Venture west beyond 40th Street, and you'll find yourself on the pristine and undeveloped Bird Island Preserve, home to the beloved Kindred Spirit mailbox, cherished by generations of Sunset Beach residents and visitors.

If you're in the mood for more adventure, the mainland offers an abundance of golf courses, eateries, grocery stores, and opportunities for kayak tours and units. You can even experience a thrilling Zipline Swamp Tour! Head down to Calabash for riverfront dining, additional stores, or venture further to Little River and beyond.

Our top Vacation rental home tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable 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 vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing the best rental:

• Choose vacation week and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Second Row, Canal View, Pet Friendly: Your Perfect Beach Getaway! \n\n\n\n has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking pages. If not, email the host before you reserve the property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is best for your vacation group.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC destination you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or could be applied to your invoice.

Advice for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your visit, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the host immediately 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 useful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
