Conveniently located near the Middleton Park complex, Watts Nest is the ideal landing point for your next Oak Island vacation! Featuring an elevator for ease of access, your entire family can relax and recharge in the open-concept living space flooded with natural light or appreciate vistas of the rolling Atlantic from the front porch of this new-construction home finished in fall of 2023. And when you're ready to hit the beach, a walk of less than 500 feet takes you from your doorstep to the ideal spot to set up your blanket on the sand.

Cuddle on the couch and loveseat with appreciated ones as you stream the big game or a favorite movie on the flat screen TV. The modern eat-in kitchen has everything you need to prepare the catch of the day or traditional family recipes. The wooden dining table seats six comfortably, and an additional four barstools are available at the breakfast bar. The property also provides a high chair and a Pack and Play travel crib for little ones.

Just down the hall, a half bath is included for your convenience. The laundry closet is just opposite, where a full-sized washer and dryer make dealing with sandy towels and wet bathing suits before heading home a breeze. On either side of this hallway, you'll find two bedrooms connected by a Jack and Jill bath. All four bedrooms have their own TV, accepting you to stream the personal entertainment of your choice with ease before settling down for the evening.

To the west, the front bedroom is furnished with a queen bed, and the bath features a standard tub/shower combo and double sinks, each with plenty of counter space. The back bedroom has a twin-over-double bunk bed and direct access to the back covered porch. To the east, the front bedroom also features a queen bed. While this bath has the same double sink and countertops as the west side, a low-step in shower with constructed-in shower seats and a grab bar is supplied instead. This connects to the back bedroom with a pair of twin beds and its own direct deck access. If additional sleeping space is needed, the couch in the living room pulls out to a queen bed.

Outside, you're sure to spend hours on the covered front porch with plenty of seating appreciating the ocean breeze and vistas of whitecaps on the horizon. Walk three homes over and across the street for the closest beach access, and you'll arrive on the sand in moments. Stroll a block or two to the west to take in craft festivals or open-air concerts at Middleton Park, where you'll also find a seasonal splash pad and an accessible playground for the younger kids.

Vacation rental booking tips:

When to book & When to go:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Oak Island. Reserve your Wrightsville Beach vacation in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, rental management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guides that include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to pick the best vacation rental:

• Start by selecting your the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Watts Nest: Ocean View with Elevator, Close to Beach and Splash Pad! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available online. If not, reach out to the host before reserving the home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what is suitable for your group.
• If there's an individual Wrightsville Beach attraction you are enamored with, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or costs could be applied to your agreement.

Tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Make a record of any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to propel more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
