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 conveniently. Take a shade break on our front porch and appreciate a peaceful beverage 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!

Our top Vacation rental home tips:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Reserve your rental in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• The sooner you can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides have deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Begin by selecting your a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Pet Friendly Condo with Ocean and Canal Views has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is normally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you reserve the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or charges applied to your invoice.

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure that no damages are linked to your family's visit, note any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the host right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out 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 owners rely on good feedback to inspire more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
