Ensure a magically Sunkissed vacation with a stay at this classic and comfortable bungalow located less than 700 feet from the sand. Dine al fresco on the screened in porch or the shaded area underneath the home and take in vistas of the ocean from the upper deck.

The open concept living area features a wall-mounted HD flat screen TV so that your family can gather to appreciate the big game or a favorite movie. The dining table seats six, with seating for four more available at the adjoining breakfast bar. The kitchen is entirely supplied with everything you need to prepare and serve favorite family recipes or fresh local seafood to your crew.

Just off the living area is a standard full bathroom, which also homes a stackable washer and dryer. The first bedroom is also located on this level, featuring a double bed and two twin beds. There is a wall-mounted flat screen TV available for personal entertainment. Upstairs, there are two more bedrooms, each with its own TV, ocean vistas and direct access to the upper level deck. One room is furnished with a queen bed and the other contains two twins. An additional full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo is located upstairs.

Off the kitchen, the screened-in porch contains a table for dining and a ceiling fan for those days when the sea breeze isn’t rather enough to keep you cool. The wooden ramp provides direct access to the screened porch from the driveway. There’s an enclosed shower with hot and cold water located under the home as well, ideal for rinsing off the sand when you return home from the beach, as well as a hose for cleaning off toys and equipment. A picnic table on this level provides a cool and shady additional dining spot.

When you’re ready to hit the sand, simply turn left and a fast two-min. walk down the road takes you to the closest public beach access. And if you’d rather dine out in the evenings rather than cooking in, turn right instead, where you’ll find multiple trendy eateries, including Shagger Jacks and Solar Brewing Company, within a 10-min. walk. No matter what your ideal beach vacation entails, you’ll find it here. Book your Sunkissed stay today!

Booking the best Oak Island vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area travel guides which include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• Select vacation week and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Sunkissed: Comfy Cottage with Ocean Views and Close Beach Access has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before booking your home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is best for your vacation.
• Is your group looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Note any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many concerns.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to compel more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your feedback 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 expeditiously to solve it.
