Located just south of the Carolina Beach Boardwalk and a short walk from the famed Ocean Grille Tiki Bar and Carolina Beach Greenway, this two bedroom, two bathroom condo in the Salty Hammocks complex is in the ideal location to relax and relax.

Nearly everything in this unit is brand new and you can see the ocean from nearly every room!! The view from the main living space is literally floor to ceiling with the upsized 3 pane sliding door connecting you to the ocean. The main bedroom suite has delightful feature wall with a striking king size platform bed and adjoining full bathroom complete with tub and shower. The second bedroom has an adult size/adult rated full over full bunk arrangement with its own balcony on the west side of the unit. It also features a twin size trundle bed for additional sleeping arrangements for kids.

Since it is so close to the water and on the 3rd floor, the ocean is literally all you can see through the front windows making you feel like you are one with the sea. The stove faces the beach so you can watch the waves while you prepare. The ocean facing deck is bigger than most condos and it is covered which is a rare find for top floor units. This is crucial after a hot day on the beach or when it is raining and you still want to sit outside and gaze into the horizon.

The kitchen features ample counter space, stainless appliances, Keurig coffee maker and seating for 9. A third private balcony off the kitchen lets in more natural light. The kitchen opens up to the main living space so you are never far away from family and friends. The couch in the main living space pulls out to a queen size bed to offer more sleeping options.

The unit is well outfitted with plenty of extras including beach gear (beach cart, 6 adult chairs, kids chairs, umbrella, tent, body boards, paddle ball and bocce ball), Home Mini for music/questions/weather, intelligent TVs in every room, white noise machines in both bedrooms, charging station for phones/ipads, Tiki Ring Toss game, books, puzzles, board games, toys, coloring supplies and more!

Strategies for getting the best Carolina Beach rental home experience:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To book the best rental home within budget, we highly recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Cape Fear area restaurants, tours, and activities. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area area magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides contain offers and deals for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select vacation dates and spending budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. ~Updated~ Top Floor Oceanfront Penthouse - Pool, Large Deck, Stunning Views!! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before booking the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many issues.
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas upon your arrival. E-mail the host immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
