“Windansea" is an architectural beauty that greets you with coastal elegance at every turn. Life outside is where the true BHI memories are made, and this home provides it in abundance. You will be greeted by a southern lower level covered front porch where you can savor calming while listening to the ocean. Have coffee or drinks or take refuge from the sun or rain on the gorgeous second level porch. Outdoor living continues with the unique 3rd-story covered deck high above the tree-tops (affectionately called “the nest”) which is really an extended outdoor second “family room” where you will likely spend a significant amount of your time relaxing and socializing. It is equipped with an outside kitchen, cushy seating and ocean breezes and vistas. You will appreciate to use this hard-to-leave location for morning coffee, afternoon napping, meal grilling, evening drinks, and of course sunset watching. And if you want still more outdoor space, appreciate the two lower screened-in porches (one relaxing, one dining), multiple kid hangout places, and a private fenced-in yard.

Windansea is located on a private, huge lot, surrounded by trees and natural vegetation just steps to the Ocean and Shoals Club. Between 212 and 214 Portsmouth Way you will find a wooden plank pathway that goes over the “hill" where you cross Station House Way to #41 Beach Access.

The home is laid out in a reverse floor plan with the primary living space on the second floor, which is at the tree-top level accepting for sunlight to cascade in from the sunrise to sunset. There are dual Master Bedrooms both with King-size Beds and ensuite Bathrooms giving you the choice to sleep downstairs (closer to younger kids) or upstairs (further from older ones). There are two Queen Guest rooms - one with a trundle bed and they share a Jack and Jill bathroom. And, if you need an escape or have a bigger group, there is a separate Crofter over the double Garage area that is the 5th Bedroom with a King Bed and an ensuite Bathroom, mini-refrigerator and counter. “Close but still away” is how we like to describe this private space. The Crofter Deck is a ideal spot for stargazing after a relaxing day at the beach.

The main living area is open, grandiose and can hold tons of people at any one time, making family gatherings super painless and all inclusive. The completely outfitted Gourmet Kitchen will allow the chef in your group to make memorable meals for all to enjoy while dining at the XL dining table.

In true BHI fashion, comfortable spaces mesh effortlessly with high end finishes - 10’+ ceilings, enormous Bedrooms, constructed-ins, this high-end bespoke home construction has it all to make your BHI vacation a great one. Additional amenities include beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, beach toys and a gas grille. There are two carts - a six passenger, and a four passenger for your use.

Windansea's namesake is from another well-known beach from the owner's original hometown of La Jolla, California and is definitely a home that will enhance your family vacation and help you create lasting memories for years to come..

Tips and Tricks to get the best vacation property experience:

Get the best rental home value:

• The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Wrightsville Beach area. To get the largest rental for your budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Wrightsville Beach attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have coupons for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Stunning 5BR 4.5 BA Home Steps to E Beach BHI and Shoals Clubs Pet Friendly has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking pages. If not, contact the property owner before reserving the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your vacation group.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

Have a great stay:

• Add the host's phone number to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• Record any issues with the property during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• At departure, complete a walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
