BOHO At The Beach, ocean views and pet friendly - Vacation rental home in Carolina Beach, NC

About this Property

• Sleeps 4
• 2 Bedrooms
• 2 Bathrooms
• Condo

Summary:
Bright, airy condo on third floor, one block from the beach. Appreciate two balconies: one facing east towards the ocean, the other facing west for striking sunsets. We’re at the North end of the island, right by the entrance to Freeman Park, where you can drive your 4-wheel drive car onto the beach. Both bedrooms have elegant vistas; the master looks over the ocean, the guest looks over the marsh. It’s a two min. walk to the beach but there’s a pool right downstairs if you’re feeling lazy :)

The Space:
Boho-beachy furnishings make this condo unique and comfortable. We have two longboard surfboards for guest use (at your own risk). The two balconies allow for a exhilarating cross breeze through the apartment when it’s cool enough to have the doors open. Listen to the ocean on the front balcony in the evening with a glass of wine, or appreciate a cup of coffee in the morning over-looking the marsh from the back balcony. Or stay cool in the cozy A/C, perhaps watching tv and all the streaming services available with our system and high-speed wifi. We have a full kitchen should you want to prepare, but there are amazing eateries close by within the downtown of Carolina Beach.

Guest Access:
THis is a 4th floor unit and there is no elevator. The pool is located besidethe condo. The HOA opens the pool mid April and closes typically the second week in September, depending on weather

The Neighborhood:
We are at the North end of the island, a half a block away from the entrance to Freeman Park.
Freeman Park is a historic location where you can drive onto the beach with your 4-wheel drive car, and bring your dog (on-leash) all year round.
The ocean is a block away, and beach access is very painless to get to, with one of many entrances located right beside the High Tide Parlor.
We’re a mile from downtown Carolina Beach where you will find a ton of eateries, bars, and stores.

Getting Around:
There are two parking spaces for our guests. If you have a four-wheel drive car, you can drive onto the beach at Freeman Park. If you prefer to bicycle or use a golf cart while you’re here, there are many places to rent bicycles in town. Please let your team at Going Coastal know if you need recommendations.

Other Things to Note:
Please note there are three flights of stairs to enter the condo.

We are also pet friendly with an additional $50 fee. Please let us know before arriving

A starter kit of one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, one roll of paper towels, a trash bag, and dish soap.

We have great rental companies on the island we would be more than happy to share the info with you. We also do not supply laundry detergent, body soap or shampoo/conditioner as we find everybody has their own preferences for these =) Please review our home rules prior to your stay

Finding the best vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summer time is high season in Carolina Beach. To book the best rental home within budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose vacation dates and budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. BOHO At The Beach, ocean views and pet friendly has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible online. Otherwise, email or call the host before you book the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas upon your arrival. Get in touch with the host immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a excellent stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
