Our island bungalow is ideally placed under a canopy of grand live oaks, just steps away from the ocean. Located on a peaceful beach access street, central to all the best attractions, shopping and eateries on Oak Island; close to close by Southport. Public sidewalks along E Oak Island Drive make it painless to walk or bicycle to your favorite spots.
Our classic bungalow has been freshly refreshed and cheerfully decorated. With 1212 square feet and an open floor plan, there is plenty of space for you to comfortably relax. There are two living/entertaining areas in the home, both centrally connected through the galley kitchen. Two bedrooms provide enough sleeping arrangements for 4 guests. The master bedroom offers a queen bed, T.V. and private en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom offers two twin beds (one is a trundle with an additional memory foam topper). Two full bathrooms with walk-in showers. Linens are supplied (sheets, towels/washcloths) along with shampoo and soap. A full-size washer and dryer is available just off the master bedroom.
If you decide to prepare in during your stay, the kitchen has all the essentials you’ll need - refrigerator, oven, microwave dishwasher, pots/pans, silverware, coffee pot, dishes. A roll of paper towels will be included, along with dish soap and detergent.
Cable TV, wi-fi, bluetooth speaker along with some games, books and puzzles are available for your enjoyment.
The roomy entirely-fenced backyard with hammock and outdoor seating offers the ideal place to relax while kids and family pets safely play. A deck off the side of the bungalow faces the ocean - an ideal spot to savor your morning coffee, appreciate dinner off the grille, or watch the sun set while listening to the calming sounds of the close by ocean. A private, outdoor shower is available. Driveway parking available.
The Whimsy Whale bungalow is family owned and operated. It is one of our favorite places to spend time together and we look forward to sharing it with you, your appreciated ones and friends.
