Located just south of the Carolina Beach Boardwalk and a short walk from the famed Ocean Grille Tiki Bar and Carolina Beach Greenway, this two bedroom, two bathroom condo in the Salty Hammocks complex is in the ideal location to relax and relax.

Nearly everything in this unit is brand new and you can see the ocean from nearly every room!! The view from the main living space is literally floor to ceiling with the upsized 3 pane sliding door connecting you to the ocean. The main bedroom suite has beautiful feature wall with a gorgeous king size platform bed and adjoining full bathroom complete with tub and shower. The second bedroom has an adult size/adult rated full over full bunk arrangement with its own balcony on the west side of the unit. It also features a twin size trundle bed for additional sleeping arrangements for kids.

Since it is so close to the water and on the 3rd floor, the ocean is literally all you can see through the front windows making you feel like you are one with the sea. The stove faces the beach so you can watch the waves while you prepare. The ocean facing deck is bigger than most condos and it is covered which is a rare find for top floor units. This is crucial after a hot day on the beach or when it is raining and you still want to sit outside and gaze into the horizon.

The kitchen features ample counter space, stainless appliances, Keurig coffee maker and seating for 9. A third private balcony off the kitchen lets in more natural light. The kitchen opens up to the main living space so you are never far away from family and friends. The couch in the main living space pulls out to a queen size bed to offer more sleeping options.

The unit is well supplied with plenty of extras including beach gear (beach cart, 6 adult chairs, kids chairs, umbrella, tent, body boards, paddle ball and bocce ball), Home Mini for music/questions/weather, intelligent TVs in every room, white noise machines in both bedrooms, charging station for phones/ipads, Tiki Ring Toss game, books, puzzles, board games, toys, coloring supplies and more!

Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Book your rental in Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and choose the bestrental home:

• To start, have your group commit to trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. ~Updated~ Top Floor Oceanfront Penthouse - Pool, Large Deck, Stunning Views!! has 3 bedrooms and 2 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 accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

More considerations:

• Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
