The beach access is a short drive or walk down the street. There is one bicycle supplied for your use or you can rent bicycles or a golf cart. As you return from your fun in the sun, unload in the garage & wash away the salt & sand in the outdoor shower (hot/cold water) just out back.

One of the features of this bungalow is a convenient desk space with natural light & direct access to the back deck if you prefer to work outdoors. If you pack your yoga mat, there is a roomy additional room flooded with natural light for exercise or play.

Tricks and tips to get the best vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a rental home:

• Summer months are high season in the Wrightsville Beach area. Book your rental in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guides which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• To start, have your group decide on vacation dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Wonderful Island Home In the Peaceful Wooded Section Only Mins to the Beach has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your family.
• Visiting for a single event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your life at home. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
