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 calming 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.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation property experience:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Sunset Beach. To book the largest rental home for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Cape Fear area attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area travel guides that include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking the perfectrental:

• Begin by choosing your trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Sunset Beach Large Oceanfront Rental Home has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If not, call the property management company before booking your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Lock your rental while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• During check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
