Surf Watcher is a very versatile home. In there you can organize from your loud and busy family or friends' reunion to staying in a peaceful home, appreciating the beach and nature that Sunset Beach and its surroundings offer.

This home has comfortable rooms that sleep 14 people, long tables to eat inside, and a great round table on the deck, that personally, I adore having my breakfast during my stay, enjoying the sounds of the waves and the warm weather.

It has four (4) bedrooms each with its own bathroom.

Room 1: King bed, bathroom with shower

Room 2: Twin & Twin, bathroom with bathtub.

Room 3: Queen & 2 Bunk beds, bathroom with bathtub.

Room 4: Queen & Queen, bathroom with shower.

Living Area: Queen Sleeper and half bathroom.

At our top floor terrace, you will be able to see handsome sunrises and sunsets and late at nighttime, the stars. However, if you are a sunset lover, I recommend you walking to the boardwalk and seeing the sun drowning in the water. And because you are there, you can check out s few stores where you can buy souvenirs and ice cream, turning this walk into something to do after dinner.

Everyone asks us how close the beach from the home is, well is as closest as it can be, and this home has a cute rainbow path that guides you from the yard to the boardwalk, few stones away ????. Of course, if you don’t want to go through nature you can walk from the beach entrance walking from the front home.

As you can see in our amenities, we provide a long list of things to appreciate your time inside and outside the home, from kitchen supplies, ice cone machine, to beach chairs and beach toys. You are welcome to use them. Remember this is a family home so please take care of the stuff. We try to update our home supplies and furnishings very often to offer you always the best of the best.

For the pet lovers, unfortunately, we do not accept them, not because we don’t appreciate them, but to keep the home clean for the next guests. Also, we are smoke-complimentary.

At the end and before every staying, a professional cleaner comes to clean and disinfect the whole home and stocking the home for the next guests.
Even though we, the owners, are not in Sunset Beach, we are one call, text, or e-mail away for any assistant you need. If you need assistance, we have local people ready to help.

Strategies to get the perfect Wilmington, NC vacation home experience:

When to visit Sunset Beach & When to reserve a Wilmington, NC rental home:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the best rental home within your budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• To start, have your family commit to trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Sunset Beach Large Oceanfront Rental Home has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property owner before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Considerations for your stay:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Upon arrival, record any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on great feedback to compel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will will be grateful for your review find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
