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 charming feature wall with a impressive 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.

Tricks and tips to get the best Carolina Beach rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your rental up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Summer is high season in Carolina Beach. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is a great way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Southport 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 information, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on local tours and attractions.

How to choose the perfect vacation rental in Carolina Beach:

• Choose your vacation week and max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group needs. ~Updated~ Top Floor Oceanfront Penthouse - Pool, Large Deck, Stunning Views!! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. If not, email or call the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what configuration is right for your family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your stay, note any problem areas when you arrive. message the rental manager immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. 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.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to stimulate future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
