Savor hearing the Holden Beach tide roll in from this elegant oceanfront home! Soak in the vistas from all angles from multiple open and covered porches and decks. This 6-bedroom, 6-bath home (2K, 4Q, 1QSS) has an inverted floor plan with a huge open living and dining area with generous seating for all. The enormous gourmet kitchen, five flat-screen TVs, many cavernous gathering areas, and the outdoor grilling area make this home the ideal place for all to relax and be bound together by lifetime memories. The private beach access and enchanting fenced-in pool (open from Easter - October) make it simple to go from saltwater to a invigorating swim.

The home provides a residential passenger elevator to make loading and unloading a breeze! No need to tote groceries and bags up the stairs. Please read and follow all posted rules. Note: The fireplace shown in the photos is not operable.

In order to properly prepare your home, early check-ins/late check-outs are not available, so plan to check in at 4:00 PM so as not to miss a min. of surf and sand!

Embrace the warmth of southern 'Hobbspitality!'

Strategies to get the very best vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

June, July, and August are high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To book the best rental within your budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Wilmington, NC restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
Property managers usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have money saving offers on local tours and attractions.

Choosing the perfect vacation home:

Choose a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and choose a budget.
Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Hobbs Realty - Luxury Oceanfront home w\/Elevator and Private Pool has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If they are not listed, call the property management company before reserving the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or costs applied to your invoice.

Advice for your stay:

Be sure you get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
Document any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if there is a dispute.
Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific source for finding the best local attractions.
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to inspire future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
