(4 BR/4.5 BA, 1K,2Q,3T,SL9, 2 golf carts, Saturday Turn in Peak Season, CHECK OUT 10:30AM / CHECK IN 4:30PM) Belvedere's elevation on South Beach's Dune Ridge provides spectacular ocean vistas from the home's screen porches and decks on the first two levels as well as the widow's walk/porch on the property's third floor.

The home's rich, dark walnut floors are the first thing you notice upon entering Belvedere and they hint of all the grand touches this gem has in store for you. The first level of this reverse floor-plan opens into a gathering/entertainment area. There is plenty of comfortable seating and a enormous flat-screen. Off this hub are three bedrooms-each spotlighting ocean vistas. A Queen Suite features a sitting area, huge flat screen, desk for jotting postcards (while relishing the view) and a private ensuite bath. Another Queen bedroom with an adjacent bath with walk-in shower. Twin bedroom with trundle has a convenient close by hall full bath. In addition, the laundry room is on this floor as well as access to this level's screened porch.

Upstairs, you'll delight in the bright, cavernous and open sitting area, dining room and kitchen. Unwind and renew while appreciating striking vistas of South Beach or gather the family for conversation or a movie on the big screen while snuggling on the cozy couches and chairs. Nearby you can dine in the charmingly-appointed dining room, complete with an opulent chandelier. The table comfortably accommodates eight. If alfresco meals are your preference, don't forget there's a dining set in the screened porch on this floor! Both of these options present spectacular seascapes ensuring pleasant mealtimes. For more informal munching, sit at the additional-sizable granite island. The island is also great for prepping culinary masterpieces and is just part of this high-end chef's dream-kitchen (which comes completely outfitted with cookware/dishware and is equipped with stainless appliances and bespoke European-style, frameless cabinets). Also on this level is a beautiful King Owner's Suite. You'll appreciate the soaring vaulted ceilings that highlight the magnificant vistas seen from the windows. The ensuite bath spoils with a bespoke-tiled shower and his/hers dual sinks.

Be sure to check out the widow's walk on this property's top floor. Its panoramas are beautiful (and this third floor renders yet another location at this getaway to de-anxiety, catch some rays-or a nap-and just breathe in Bald Head's serenity). Other amenities included with Belvedere are internet access, a gas grille (conveniently located on the second level) and two golf carts-a four-passenger as well as a six-passenger and access to WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends. For a vacation well spent, spend your vacation at Belvedere!

Tips and Tricks for getting the best Wilmington, NC vacation home experience:

Getting the best value:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Summer months are high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To find the best value, consider changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine 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, travel guides contain coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Start by selecting vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Belvedere is a High Dunes gem with AMAZING Ocean Views! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property manager before you book the property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to determine what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Get specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC beach you simply love, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect your property!
• Record any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to drive more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
