Feel true Oceanview Bliss with a stay at this bright and cheerful condo located in the oceanfront Southern Shores Villas complex, located in the heart of Oak Island's East Beach. Drink in charming vistas of the sea from your living room, private covered porch and master bedroom.

Fun tropical details are scattered throughout the open concept living space. Gather in front of the TV to stream a favorite movie as you relax on the couch or an upsized armchair. The sturdy dining table seats six and provides plenty of space for meals or a family boardgame. The kitchen features everything you need to prepare during your stay. Lay out the ultimate sandwich buffet on the breakfast bar or prepare the catch of the day on the broad counters. A laundry closet opposite the kitchen is supplied with a full-sized washer and dryer for your convenience.

The master bedroom is furnished with a king bed and features direct covered porch access as well as a private en suite bathroom. Listen to the waves as you drift off each evening and open the sliding doors to greet each day with a breath of fresh ocean air. Both bathrooms in the unit are equipped with a standard tub/shower combo. The second bathroom offers hall access as well as direct access to the second bedroom, which also has a king bed. The final bedroom provides a double bed, and all sleeping spaces have ceiling fans for your personal comfort.

The covered balcony looks out over the pool area to the sea and the countless horizon beyond. While the two sections of the porch are connected, a partial wall affords some privacy between the portion off the living room and the portion off the master bedroom. Each of these areas is furnished with a pair of captain's chairs and a bistro table. Appreciate your morning coffee as you watch seabirds swoop and soar, or gaze at the sun as it dips below the horizon and paints the sea and sky with a rainbow of color as you sip on a invigorating drink.

When you're ready to hit the sand, beach access is fast and painless due to dedicated complex access points. Settle in at the covered gazebo and sway on one of the porch swings for a moment before you crest the dune and lay out your blanket. If you need a break from the surf, cool off in the oceanfront pool instead. Additional community amenities include a grilling and picnic area as well as an outdoor shower for rinsing off before heading inside.

Located in simple walking distance from a number of local eateries, beach stores, ice cream stores, nightlife and even an arcade, you can walk along the main drag in the evening to appreciate nostalgic activities as a family. Or embark on any number of coastal adventures, from exploring close by historic Southport to venturing via ferry to the Fort Fisher Aquarium or other Wilmington-area attractions. However you like to spend your beach vacation, Oceanview Bliss is ready to serve as your happy place while your family builds memories that will last a lifetime.

How to book the best Oak Island rental experience:

Get the best rental value:

• Booking your Wilmington, NC vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. 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 the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Choosing the perfect vacation home in the Wilmington, NC area:

• First, have your group agree to date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Oceanview Bliss: Walk to Everything from this Cheerful Beachfront Condo has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally available online. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before you reserve your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what is right for your vacation.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC attraction you long to visit, keep an eye out for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the host right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on great ratings to compel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to 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 reasonably to remedy it.
