This property's price represents an Economy Rating for an ocean property with a pool, close to beach access. Expect a cleaned unit, but unimproved as to paint, carpet, and furnishings.  

Welcome to The Breakers: Out of Office! You'll be right at home in our crisp and casual condo. The beach is only just a few steps across the street to the access point, so you can go back and forth effortlessly. Take a shade break on our front porch and savor a peaceful drink while rocking and taking in the salty sea air and ocean view. Or if you've had enough salt water, take a dip in our community marsh-side pool. Located right at the north end of the island and Freeman Park, you can walk over the Lo Tide Tiki Bar for a close by social hour, or walk or bicycle 1.5 miles down to the Sea Witch or many other bars, eateries, and stores at The Boardwalk. The north end of the island has been reenergized with last year's Beach renourishment and tons of summer action at the new Carolina Beach Pier.  Live music, surf activities, beverages, and a great food menu make the North End better than it's been since Florence!

Tips to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• The earlier your group can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Booking your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Summer months are high season in Carolina Beach. Book your Cape Fear area vacation home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain deals for local tours and attractions.

How to choose the best rental in the Cape Fear area area:

• Begin by selecting the best vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Pet Friendly Condo with Ocean and Canal Views has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine which bed configuration is right for your vacation family.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Know before you go:

• We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect your property!
• To make sure damages aren't attributed to your stay, record any problem areas during arrival. Make contact with the rental manager right away to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to propel new bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
