About this property

Oceanfront Top Floor Condo With Pool- Riggings E3

Beautifully furnished top floor, end unit overlooking the ocean and pool. Watch the dolphins swim by from your private balcony. Just steps away from the beach. 2 miles to Kure Beach pier, 2 miles to NC aquarium, 5 miles to Carolina Beach Boardwalk. This unit has one bedroom with a KING bed and two twin bunk beds in the hallway. Full kitchen with microwave, dishwasher, Keurig machine (please bring K cups), toaster and all utensils, dishes and glasses. Unit has WiFi, Netflix and cable TV. TVs in living room and bedroom. Washer/dryer. Absolutely no need to bring anything. We are stocked like a hotel with all sheets and linens cleaned for you and ready before you arrive. We also are fully stocked with toilet paper, paper towels and laundry detergent.

This condo is located all the way at the end of the beach strand by Fort Fisher. What that means is the beach is never packed. At times, you will feel like you are on your own private beach. If you prefer crowds, go one mile South to Fort Fisher Beach area or two miles North by the pier. Surf fishing is superb directly in front of the condo because of a large rock formation off of Fort Fisher. Just to the North a couple hundred feet, you will find one of North Carolina’s very few coquina rock outcroppings. The kids will be entertained for hours playing on the rocks.

**We highly suggest you purchase travel insurance for stays during the months of June through October, however the most active months for hurricanes are September and October. Refunds will not be offered for poor weather unless the property is uninhabitable**

**We ask that you please bring your own beach gear due to the lack of storage in the unit and gear continually disappearing**

**Pool typically opens late April and closes mid September. Closure of pool relates to weather and can change.**

**In the Spring and Summer, the beach is typically very plentiful. In the Fall and Winter, we can get what are called “King Tides”. These are extremely high tides due to the moons position with the earth. They happen monthly for about 5-6 days. Combine that with strong NE winds and you will have very high tides which can cause lots of sand to be removed from the beach, exposing sandbags that are mostly covered in Summer. There is still room to walk the beach heading north from condo. The beach replenishes itself VERY fast afterwards, so conditions can change in a matter of days**

** We have a security camera at the front door and on the balcony to monitor potential threatening storms. The camera faces above the railing at the ocean (not on your chairs) and audio is turned off. You are welcome to put something over it if you like. Just please remove when leaving and try not to move camera.**

**Absolutely NO pets allowed per HOA rules and regulations.**

**We do not accept alteration requests inside the cancellation policy window.**

Lovely location on quiet beach

We have stayed at this property before but a different unit. The condo was accurately described in the listing and very clean upon arrival. Plenty of towels, kitchen was stocked with what we needed, and the living area was spacious and comfortable. The bedding on the king bed was fluffy and relaxing, and the kiddos enjoyed the bunk beds. Would recommend.

Perfectly Peaceful! Everything you need...

Lovely home. Super clean (germ freak here so that's really important). Highest communication EVER with any owner/property manager on VRBO. Most well-stocked home with kitchen supplies, towels, hand soap, and paper goods.Ultra comfy King bed and pillows. Perfectly peaceful getaway! So quiet and right on the ocean. And ya'll, the beach in NC? Even the predicted rain days turned out to be sunny and 64. It was so warm in the sun that I actually got sunburnt! Would highly recommend and we'll definitely be back.

Great place towards the end of Kure

Perfect place to stay at the end of the residential portion of Kure beach. Not a whole lot of beach front to work with, as the tides come up to the front of the forward condos, but still a great view. The condo is great! Beautifully decorated, comfy bed, and well equipped with everything you need. Very easy check in. Great communication!

Great Girl’s Getaway!

Myself, sister and mom stayed here for a long weekend/girls trip. It was amazing! The location is perfect, away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to be convenient to dining spots. Waking up to the sound of the ocean was a perfect start to the day. We walked on the beach and found some nice shells and a few sharks teeth. The condo itself was spotless! It had everything we needed and no detail was overlooked!

Great condo for a mother-daughter beach trip

I stayed at the condo with my 10-year-old daughter as a little mother-daughter getaway. We loved that the property was the last property on Kure Beach and walkable to the Fort Fisher area. It was peaceful and we loved hearing the ocean waves as we fell asleep. The beach walks were great too. We visited the NC Aquarium and the Carolina Beach boardwalk while we were in town too. The condo was fully stocked with everything we could have needed. It was decorated very well. The pool was great too. We enjoyed breakfast on the condo's patio. Overall, it was a wonderful trip for us!

Clean and Well Maintained

Riggings E3 was the perfect choice for our stay at Kure Beach. The condo was super clean and well organized with numerous amenities that typically in other places we would go out and purchase on arrival or bring with us. The location being at the end of the beach line bordering Fort Fisher worked out well for us in that it wasn't crowded on the beach and there were plenty of shells to pick when the tide came in. We enjoyed jogging in the mornings and evening walks up the boulevard (1.7 miles) to the restaurants. I want to thank the host for the attention to detail with the condo. We vacation every year and this was the best we've ever stayed in.

Wonderful time in this beautiful condo

This condo is beautifully furnished/decorated with very comfortable furniture and beds. It's also super clean. Our girls loved the bunkbeds. The view and location is amazing. The owners supply everything you need as well as awesome recommendations, which we took advantage of(including a viewing of the SpaceX rocket). Enjoyed a book left by owner by the beach and the pool. Very relaxing, it's like your own secluded part of the beach. Quiet area close to the aquarium and Ft. Fisher which were added perks. Can't wait to come back next year:)

We had a wonderful and very relaxing stay. The property was just right for me and my wife. The view of the ocean was great. We were able to walk to Fort Fisher State Park. The Coquina Outcrop was fascinating. The host was very accessible and answered our questions very quickly. We have already discussed coming back to this property next year. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing stay at the beach.

Spring Break 2024

My husband and I brought our youngest daughter to Kure Beach for her senior year spring break. The goal was to have quality time with her before she graduates and heads to college. She wanted a beach vacation and we wanted to avoid the typical spring break vibe and chaos of other destinations. We also wanted to rest and recharge. Kure Beach ended up being a great choice and the accommodations made our stay better than we could have imagined. The condo was bright, clean and quiet. When we weren't on the beach or exploring the area, we were enjoying coffee and meals on the balcony. Access to the beach was easy and close. Also access to the ferry and historical sites was very convenient. The condo had everything we needed to make it our home away from home during our stay. The beds and furniture were comfortable and clean. Also, having laundry facilities on site was very convenient. We wouldn't change anything about our stay or accommodations. Kure Beach is definitely a place we see ourselves revisiting. Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by James Blydenburgh

Host profile image
Hello, I am James. After running a business in Raleigh NC for 20 years, I decided to sell my business and become a full time host. This was my second home at Kure Beach for many years and I just loved providing vacation rentals for my wonderful guests. I have since expanded my business and own three condos in Kure Beach, one condo in Carolina Beach, one cottage at Badin Lake and one home in West Jefferson in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I strive to provide rentals that are above and beyond what people expect to have in a rental and wouldn't rent anything to our guests that I wouldn't enjoy staying in myself.

Why they chose this property

We are fully stocked with all the necessities, allowing you to just bring clothes and toiletries. This property sits at the end of the island, so the beach is very quiet. If you are looking for a relaxing beach, this is it! If you want to see a crowd, drive a couple miles up the road to Kure Beach public access and you will have it. We are right next to Fort Fisher, where you have lots of walking trails, sidewalks with amazing views of either the ocean or the Cape Fear River. Kure Beach pier is just a 3 minute drive or a long walk down the beach. Carolina Beach is about a 10 minute drive and there you can access the boardwalk with all the shops, restaurants, carnival and fireworks every Thursday night in the summer. What can be better?!
