If you want to be as close to the ocean without actually being in it, Sea Forever, a top floor, oceanfront condo is for you! The view anywhere from the deck, living room and bedroom at Sea Forever to the Atlantic Ocean and miles of beach is impressive.

The beach is routinely "re-nourished", with City access walkways placed every couple of blocks. This year the closest sandy beach access is at Sandfiddler or by the pier. However, that being said, any storm can change the access points at any time. This year it looks like the beach is limited right in front of the condo.

Seascape lies directly on the beach. Sea Forever's deck, off the living room and bedroom, offers a great vantage point from which to watch the action and look at the north pier. Late summer evening dinner on the deck is one of the special experiences this condo offers and the view is spectacular. It feels as though you are on a ship, with an broad view of the beach and ocean.
There is also a alluring view of the inter-coastal waterway and marsh of the island from the sizable kitchen window.

Seascape property also offers a private pool with a landscaped courtyard. Outdoor grilles are available near the pool for family or group outings. There are bicycle racks and you can bring a boat on a trailer if you give us some notice. It can be parked safely right across the street at our Courtyard property.

The condo has a good size bedroom with walk-in closet, a door directly leading to the deck, a enormous ocean facing window, with a Queen-size bed. In the living room there is a sliding glass door where there is full-size seating. Either place affords a great place to listen to the ocean while you doze off to nap or sleep.

Major renovations are done periodically including sliding door and all windows, range, dishwasher, microwave, granite countertops, floor and new HVAC in 2022, to name a few. The bathroom and kitchen floors are tiled. New plank floor and painted walls throughout. New bedroom and living room set and TV in 2022.

Sea Forever has a entirely equipped kitchen with microwave, blender, toaster, coffee grinder and coffee maker, as well as all the other silverware to make your meals in case you decide to relax on the deck while looking at the ocean. There is a table and chairs on the deck and new PollyWood chairs, for your enjoyment while you sit outdoors and watch the sky, ocean, surfers, pelicans and dolphins!

Two blocks away is the entrance to Freeman Park, a 1 ½ mile stretch of open beach, and one of the last few beaches you can drive on. If you have a 4-wheel drive you can drive right on the beach and spend the day fishing, surfing, swimming, walking or just appreciating the ocean breeze.

Carolina Beach Boardwalk is an simple bicycle ride away. Savor seasonal concerts, fireworks, outdoor movies and a Farmer's Market. Feel the sights and sounds of the carnival rides, arcade games, cotton candy and Britt's Donuts at the Boardwalk. You can find the dates for these activities and other information from the City website.

We limit the condo to TWO (2) guests.
NO family pets and NO smoking in condo or deck.
Please respect these requests. Thank you

Getting the best vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property owner before you book the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is optimal for your family.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a smooth stay:

• Add the owner's phone number to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• At Check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to stimulate more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
