If you want to be as close to the ocean without actually being in it, Sea Forever, a top floor, oceanfront condo is for you! The view anywhere from the deck, living room and bedroom at Sea Forever to the Atlantic Ocean and miles of beach is delightful.

The beach is routinely "re-nourished", with City access walkways placed every couple of blocks. This year the closest sandy beach access is at Sandfiddler or by the pier. However, that being said, any storm can change the access points at any time. This year it looks like the beach is limited right in front of the condo.

Seascape lies directly on the beach. Sea Forever's deck, off the living room and bedroom, offers a great vantage point from which to watch the action and look at the north pier. Late summer evening dinner on the deck is one of the special experiences this condo offers and the view is spectacular. It feels as though you are on a ship, with an broad view of the beach and ocean.
There is also a gorgeous view of the inter-coastal waterway and marsh of the island from the sizable kitchen window.

Seascape property also offers a private pool with a landscaped courtyard. Outdoor grilles are available near the pool for family or group outings. There are bicycle racks and you can bring a boat on a trailer if you give us some notice. It can be parked safely right across the street at our Courtyard property.

The condo has a good size bedroom with walk-in closet, a door directly leading to the deck, a huge ocean facing window, with a Queen-size bed. In the living room there is a sliding glass door where there is full-size seating. Either place affords a great place to listen to the ocean while you doze off to nap or sleep.

Major renovations are done periodically including sliding door and all windows, range, dishwasher, microwave, granite countertops, floor and new HVAC in 2022, to name a few. The bathroom and kitchen floors are tiled. New plank floor and painted walls throughout. New bedroom and living room set and TV in 2022.

Sea Forever has a entirely equipped kitchen with microwave, blender, toaster, coffee grinder and coffee maker, as well as all the other silverware to make your meals in case you decide to relax on the deck while looking at the ocean. There is a table and chairs on the deck and new PollyWood chairs, for your enjoyment while you sit outdoors and watch the sky, ocean, surfers, pelicans and dolphins!

Two blocks away is the entrance to Freeman Park, a 1 ½ mile stretch of open beach, and one of the last few beaches you can drive on. If you have a 4-wheel drive you can drive right on the beach and spend the day fishing, surfing, swimming, walking or just appreciating the ocean breeze.

Carolina Beach Boardwalk is an painless bicycle ride away. Appreciate seasonal concerts, fireworks, outdoor movies and a Farmer's Market. Feel the sights and sounds of the carnival rides, arcade games, cotton candy and Britt's Donuts at the Boardwalk. You can find the dates for these activities and other information from the City website.

We limit the condo to TWO (2) guests.
NO family pets and NO smoking in condo or deck.
Please respect these requests. Thank you

Booking the best Southport vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Reserve your rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies supply Southport area visitor guide magazines which will include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Lovely Oceanfront Condo????VastTop FloorView????Pool????WiFiCable????Quiet N End ????2 Max has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before you reserve the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Are you bringing the family pet? 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 thoroughly! Pet fees or costs could be applied to your invoice.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Put the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if there is a dispute.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to compel new bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. 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 owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
