*Pura Vida*

Welcome to Pura Vida, (the Pure Life), a traditional Costa Rican greeting. We are the right side of a new construction duplex town home. You will adore all the high-end finishes of this charming home. When you first walk in you'll notice the sizable open floor plan - living room, kitchen and dining area. There is plenty of comfortable seating and a huge 65" Intelligent TV in the living room. The kitchen has quartz countertops, solid wood cabinets, waterproof Pergo floor, and a granite back splash with wall mounted pot filler faucet. Just off the kitchen is a bedroom with queen bed, Intelligent TV, and full bathroom off the hall.

On the second floor are three additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary bedroom is cavernous with a queen bed, has a Intelligent TV, and on-suite private bathroom with walk in shower with multiple shower heads and a enormous walk in closet. Just down the hall is another bedroom with a queen bed and Intelligent TV, a full bathroom off the hall, and the fourth bedroom with queen bed and a Intelligent TV.

Off the master bedroom is a deck with spiral stairs up to a rooftop patio and excellent ocean view.

We have parking for four cars and an outdoor shower with hot and cold water. The backyard has a brand-new pergola with two couches, outdoor lighting, Adirondack chairs, a charcoal grille and a picknick table.

The public beach access is a short four-min. walk away, and we provide a rolling cart for all your beach gear.

Appreciate all that Carolina Beach has to offer - outdoor music, summer fireworks, the famed boardwalk, eateries, great seafood, bars, ice cream stores, coffee stores, pizza, a summer carnival, and of course Britt's Donuts. Also, on our island is the Kure Beach pier, NC Aquarium, Fort Fisher historic Civil War museum, and if you have a 4-wheel drive car you can drive out onto the beach at Freeman Park!

Rent a paddle boat on the lake, rent jet skis on the inlet, surf fish, pier fish, or just lay on the beach soaking up the sun. With so many choices you'll have as much or as little to do as you'd like during your vacation!

Rental property booking tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are high season in Carolina Beach. Reserve your vacation in Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The sooner you can book, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are booked early. Booking your vacation rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your search:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Spacious, high end home with rooftop deck for ocean views! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property manager before you book the property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.

More considerations:

• We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
