Guests consistently say "ideal location!"

***We freshly took back over from the property mgmt company so Vacation Rental By Owner removed our reviews. We have 30 reviews on the other major rental site with an avg of 4.75 stars. Please search for Island Bungalow Wrightsville Beach to read. Here are a few:

Karen: "The location is to die for... striking street lined with impressive homes and friendly people and right on the sound. We walked everywhere from this location. It was fun to see other people walking their dogs, walking to eateries, taking early morning jogs and greeting the sunrise on the beach. We picked up magnificent acai and yogurt bowls from Adapt Kitchen and Juice bar and ate them on a public gazebo looking over the sound. This is the life!"
Stephanie: "As someone who has lived at WB, location is everything. This home is right where you want to be! Loved having the screened in porch. Kristal went above and beyond to accommodate my family and pups needs and was so responsive.."
Tina: "First of all, Krystal was an amazingly responsive and accommodating host. We had all of the info we needed, complete with locals-only suggestions and personal touches to help us savor the beach. The bicycles, fenced yard, darling home and marvelous screened porch made our stay so comfortable! The neighborhood is striking and the neighbors are amazing. The description is so true, you can walk to everything...and we did! We can’t wait to go back again. Thank you, Krystal!!"

If you want a peaceful, laid-back, private getaway in the middle of the thriving Wrightsville Beach scene, check out this little bungalow! Truly the best of both worlds, this 2 bedroom, 1 and ½ bath bungalow is located on a peaceful neighborhood one-way street with mostly foot traffic BUT also in the middle of everything at Wrightsville Beach. After a grocery run, you can park your car for the remainder of your stay because “all things fun” can be reached on foot. That’s right….the beach, the channel, great eateries, awe-inspiring coffee homes, surf stores, ice cream, supplies, and gifts are all within a 5-9 min walk. It is an outdoor enthusiast “candy store!” Bikes will get you there even faster. If you must drive, we have a WB resident parking pass for your use which accepts you to park right at the beach. What a deal!

Family Animals? $200 pet fee. Rules: 1. One dog only at the discretion of the owner. 2. No aggressive breeds - pit bull, chow, etc... 3. No dogs that bark a lot. We like our neighbors :-). 4. If they need to be on the furnishings, bring your own blankets to keep dirt/hair out of ours.

The Bungalow - Recently remodeled: Discover the cozy appeal of this 2 bedroom, 1 ½ bath bungalow with a calming screen porch and outdoor patio. Savor the breezes that blow through as you read a book, have a drink with a friend, or just ponder life. If you happen to visit during a month with an “R”, you must have an oyster roast on the vintage brick patio under trees. There is a cozy living/kitchen/eating area where you can prepare fresh Mahi or Grouper from Motts Seafood, appreciate a glass of wine, or snuggle up to watch a movie. We adore the broad window bar that makes us feel as if we are still outdoors. Well-outfitted kitchen with blender, toaster, kettle, microwave, and everything needed to prepare. The beds are cozy. Wifi accepts for streaming with Roku. The beds are super comfortable: Queen, 1 twin, and one futon. This home is not the "granite countertop experience, but it is a 1950's style laid-back throw back beach home. Just refreshed to make lighter, brighter, and more comfortable. The simple living and unbeatable location are why people return to the Island Bungalow.

We provide two bicycles. You can rent SUP, kayak, surfboard, and additional bicycles just a few mins. walk. 250 feet from our front door there is public access for painless entry into Bank's channel. You will certainly be able to relax in this comfortable home.

For the Outdoor Enthusiast:
Water sports Reign Supreme: As a naturally gifted water sports hub, WB motivates travelers to maintain an active lifestyle once here. Named in the top 10 surfing towns in the world by National Geographic and the birthplace of surfing in NC, WB attracts both amateurs and experts who catch countless waves here. The many waterways from surf to sound convey a sense of movement everywhere you look. See crystal blue waters from a paddle board or kayak advantage. You can rent a boat, take a cruise, go fishing, or a scuba trip. Sign up for sailing lessons or go surfing camp. Just grab any kind of board or just dive in and get in on the action!
Surf and Paddleboard (SUP) - As one of the premier watersports destinations in the country, it’s a natural place to hold top-ranked surfing competitions and SUP events. There are pro-am surf fests and Wahine Classic surf competitions attracting all levels of female surfers. The Carolina Cup, held every spring, was crowned as one of the world’s five major SUP races. So if it is good enough for the pros, it is good enough for us all. You can even enjoy SUP Yoga in the ICW. For your board needs, there are numerous great surf stores, Aussie Island and Sweetwater in particular, which are 5 min walk.

For the Outdoor Land-lover
We sit on The Loop, a 2.5-mile spectacular trail that is a well-appreciated treasure that offers a walking or running experience you won’t find anywhere else. Test your running skills or just walk as you enjoy vistas of Intracoastal Waterway (ICW), Banks Channel, a live oak-lined and shaded path, and handsome salt marshes as you make your way around this handsome path. While always active but never busy, it is sure to inspire you to move!
WB Park offers four tennis courts, basketball, volleyball, kids' play equipment, obstacle course equipment, and fields to enjoy whatever you prefer. From May-Oct, every Monday the park hosts a FARMERS MARKET Mondays 8 am - 1 pm.

Fishing: From USA Today…
“With two fishing piers and four miles of white sand beaches, the town of Wrightsville Beach is a prime destination for fishing. Wrightsville Beach overlooks the Atlantic Ocean along North Carolina's Outer Banks, and anglers can catch a variety of native and migratory saltwater game fish including summer flounder, speckled sea trout, and Spanish mackerel. Angling opportunities are available year-round.

Downtown Wilmington: Often referred to as “little Charleston” has been a great destination for great eateries, nightlife, NC Battleship, Riverwalk, Cruises, Historical tours, art stores, Cotton Exchange, Gem studios, Horse and Carriage rides, and a complimentary trolley. In the last couple of years, this area has become hot with growth adding Convention Center, Performing Arts Center, Marina, Riverwalk extension, public concerts, and Saturday morning farmers market. Soon there will be a new public park at the new marina. A trip here during your stay is a must….Ask about favorite eateries.

Strategies to get the perfect Wrightsville Beach rental home experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

  • In the Cape Fear area area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
  • Summer months are high season in the Cape Fear area area. To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Cape Fear area vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
  • Some owners offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
  • Property management companies often offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
  • Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guides which will include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the best vacation rental in Wrightsville Beach:

  • Begin by selecting the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
  • Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. \"Perfect location!\" Ditch the car and walk everywhere! Dogs Yay! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rentals search.
  • Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you reserve your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
  • Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or costs applied to your contract.
  • Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
  • Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More considerations:

  • Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
  • Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
  • Record any damages to the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
  • Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great resource to find the best local spots.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
  • Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Go through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
  • Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to inspire new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.

Based in Carolina Beach in the coastal Cape Fear region, Victory Beach Vacations has more than 100 vacation rentals in all shapes and sizes to ensure that every vacationing family can find their dream home away from home on the beach.   When you book your Cape Fear getaway with Victory Beach Vacations, the fun doesn’t end when you leave the beach, it continues with an array of privately-owned properties outfitted with all of the amenities needed for a fabulous beach vacation.   Jenna Lanier, General Manager, explains that her family first opened the rental and property management business in 2002. At the forefront of Victory Beach operations is Lanier’s mother, Caroline Meeks.

The former, as described by Lanier, is the more commercialized of the two destinations and features a boardwalk, outdoor dining options and a plethora of weekly activities including fireworks, live music, amusement park pop-ups, and movies under the stars. Kure Beach offers a more residential feel with its fishing pier, intimate restaurants and family favorite, North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher.More water fun awaits, too. “There is a harbor and a canal that feed into the intercoastal. We have several properties on the harbor so guests can bring their boat, kayak, [or jet ski] and travel between islands,” says Lanier.   A stay with Victory Beach Vacations is an annual pilgrimage for most. “A large percentage of guests are previous guests. Some even reserve the same property for the next year as they’re checking out,” Lanier says. “It’s almost like it’s their personal vacation home.”   Even before guests arrive at their vacation destination, the Victory Beach Vacations’ website greets them with a live beach cam and exquisite aerial footage of both Carolina and Kure Beaches.
