Aquarium #159 is a cavernous sound front home that is really a boater’s heaven. Top location on Wrightsville Beach for a family beach and boat vacation on the peaceful, peaceful South Lumina. This home offers it all and is a rare find as it features spectacular sound and ocean vistas from four decks and a private deep-water boat slip, dock, and gazebo on Banks Channel. There’s a calm, secluded beach at low tide on the sound side, and convenient beach access is just a 5-min. walk away. Entertainment options are countless with a ping pong table, board games, and plenty of water toys and games to play on the beach. Walk to Crystal Pier, eateries, and coffee stores such as Oceanic and Sundays, or check out the local surf stores only .5 miles from the home.

Offering an open floor plan designed to highlight the water vistas, this home has a seamless flow ideal for gathering. In the living room, you will appreciate the natural light, vaulted ceilings, comfortable seating, a constructed-in TV, and board games. Fit for a chef, the open kitchen has a enormous island with bar stool seating for 8, white cabinetry, high-end appliances, a wet bar and wine refrigerator, and a walk-in pantry. Behind the kitchen and adjacent to the pantry is a door to access the front porch that looks out to the street and neighborhood. There are two dining tables, each seat 6. Appreciate an afternoon or evening sound-side sunset gathering on the broad back porch that can be accessed from the living room.

Six bedrooms, all with deck access and ensuite bathrooms, invite you to relax and recharge during your vacation. There is one bedroom on the main living area level (1st floor) and provides a queen-sized bed, a TV, and deck access that looks out to the street. Ascend the stairs to the second level, where you will find three additional bedrooms: one with a queen-sized bed (sound view), one with two twin-sized beds (street facing), and one with a king-sized bed (street facing). A queen-sized pull out couch is located on this floor as well. The third floor homes the primary master suite which has a king-sized bed, a TV, a roomy ensuite bathroom with double vanities and a walk-in shower, and a wet bar with a refrigerator. The master suite has a private deck looking out to the sound. The sixth and final bedroom is also located on the top floor and has two twin-sized beds and an additional-long twin-sized daybed and a TV. Ocean vistas are prominent from this room, and deck access is available with both sound and ocean vistas.

On the ground floor, you’ll find a ping pong table, comfortable couches, an Xbox game console, and a half bathroom.

Finding the best Wrightsville Beach vacation rental experience:

When to book a Wrightsville Beach rental home & When to go:

  • Booking your Wrightsville Beach vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
  • The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
  • Hosts sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
  • Booking websites often offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
  • Often, property management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best rental:

  • Choose your vacation dates and budget.
  • Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Aquarium #159 - Soundfront Home on Wrightsville Beach w\/ Private Dock! has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
  • Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly available online. If they are not listed, call the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is suitable for your family.
  • If there's a certain Wrightsville Beach attraction you crave, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
  • Remember to include your furry companions! 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. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or charges applied to your agreement.

Advice for a great stay:

  • Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
  • Document any damages to the property during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be very helpful if there is a dispute.
  • Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of difficulties.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
  • Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
  • Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
  • Did your family have a terrific stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.

Victory Beach Vacations

Visitors who are on the hunt for the postcard-perfect vacation rental in the heart of the Carolina Beach or Kure Beach area will find an enticing selection and plenty of friendly customer service when they rent through Victory Beach Vacations. Based in Carolina Beach in the coastal Cape Fear region, Victory Beach Vacations has more than 100 vacation rentals in all shapes and sizes to ensure that every vacationing family can find their dream home away from home on the beach.   When you book your Cape Fear getaway with Victory Beach Vacations, the fun doesn’t end when you leave the beach, it continues with an array of privately-owned properties outfitted with all of the amenities needed for a fabulous beach vacation.   Jenna Lanier, General Manager, explains that her family first opened the rental and property management business in 2002. At the forefront of Victory Beach operations is Lanier’s mother, Caroline Meeks. Meeks is both the Broker in Charge and co-owner with husband, Buck Meeks, who manages the Field Services team with Lanier’s husband, Scott.   For nearly 20 years, the Victory Beach team has worked tirelessly to establish a network of top-of-the-line rental properties for Cape Fear visitors to enjoy. “As far as our properties go,” explains Lanier, “they are all updated, well-furnished and appointed. “We have always performed post-cleaning inspections and since the pandemic, have put freshly laundered duvets over all of the comforters between rentals.”   Lanier emphasizes how important the guests experience is “we strive to give our guests a relaxing, stress free, memorable vacation.” This emphasis on customer service has led to Victory Beach Vacations having a 4.8 Google rating with over 300 reviews by happy owners and guests.In addition to Victory Beach’s superior sanitation practices, the company offers properties for every type of visitor. Choose from luxury oceanfront houses and condos to more reasonbly priced 2nd row properties with oceanviews. Many properties include pools and hot tubs as well, perfect for outdoor entertaining, and many are dog friendly.   Lanier also notes that all properties are within walking or driving distance to Pleasure Island’s main attractions – Carolina Beach and Kure Beach. The former, as described by Lanier, is the more commercialized of the two destinations and features a boardwalk, outdoor dining options and a plethora of weekly activities including fireworks, live music, amusement park pop-ups, and movies under the stars. Kure Beach offers a more residential feel with its fishing pier, intimate restaurants and family favorite, North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher.More water fun awaits, too. “There is a harbor and a canal that feed into the intercoastal. We have several properties on the harbor so guests can bring their boat, kayak, [or jet ski] and travel between islands,” says Lanier.   A stay with Victory Beach Vacations is an annual pilgrimage for most. “A large percentage of guests are previous guests. Some even reserve the same property for the next year as they’re checking out,” Lanier says. “It’s almost like it’s their personal vacation home.”   Even before guests arrive at their vacation destination, the Victory Beach Vacations’ website greets them with a live beach cam and exquisite aerial footage of both Carolina and Kure Beaches.
