Savor a OCEANFRONT duplex with spectacular 270 degree south-facing vistas for all day sun on the beach! This family-friendly and immaculate home features an open main level with living/dining space, a refreshed kitchen, and main level queen bedroom. This versatile floor plan includes a 2nd floor with master suite with oceanfront vistas and two additional well-appointed bedrooms. The kitchen features granite countertops, tile backsplash, newer appliances, and is well supplied with every gadget and utensil needed to prepare huge meals or accommodate take-out from the many eateries on the island.

Sit on the covered deck and watch the sun rise and set over the shining water. The home is positioned closer to the dunes and ocean than the neighboring homes for unobstructed vistas up and down the island. Watch the kids play on the beach from the deck or the many ocean-view windows in the home.

Appreciate an evening walk on the beach to multiple eateries on the island serving fresh seafood, steaks and exhilarating island drinks. Have dessert at the local ice cream shop before heading back for a calming nighttime listing to the ocean surf.

Holden Beach is a peaceful, family-friendly beach recognized as a top beach by USA Today and a top-10 beach by National Geographic Traveler’s Magazine. There are no hotels or high-rise complexes, just family owned cottages. Holden Beach is part of the barrier island chain in southeastern NC and is also located roughly 35 miles from Wilmington, NC and Myrtle Beach, SC -- making trips for shopping, eating and entertaining very convenient. Holden Beach is also well-located for 30 area golf courses.

We adore our “home away from home,” and our family has spent many years appreciating all that Holden has to offer. We would appreciate for you to choose to spend your vacation time at our property. Renting directly from the owner may be new to you (through Vacation Rental By Owner), but we savor helping our renters plan the ideal vacation and that will exceed your expectations.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect Wilmington, NC vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• To find the best rental home within budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Wilmington, NC attractions. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides which will include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your rental search:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Amazing Oceanfront Home has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property owner before reserving your home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is right for your vacation.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Have a wonderful stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to compel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation rental. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
