About this property

BEACH TIME! Ocean side! Private area, no crowds - Steps from sand. Downstairs.

New downstairs condo as of October 2022.
***************
Wake up feeling refreshed to the sound of waves crashing and the warm smell of salt in the air! Gorgeous private beach is within sight and only a few steps away from your studio-style condo!

Perfect for a romantic getaway with your love or a playful time with the kids. Watch dolphins frolic in the ocean from the gazebo (normally around 5pm), stroll the warm sandy beach hand-in-hand while picking up shells, build sandcastles, bury each other in the sand... swim in the pools, walk the pier, fish, head to the nearby parks and historical locations! So much to do... or not! :)

Close to everything and includes all you could possibly need!

Sleeps four (full bed and queen sleeper-sofa).

Fully stocked kitchen with stove/oven, fridge, microwave, blender, coffee maker, toaster, pots/pans, dishes (all types of glass/plasticware), silverware, grilling tools, etc.

Includes iron/ironing board (as if you'll need that!), hair dryer, straightener, curling iron, etc. Smart TV, cable tv, dvd player, as well books and dvds for all ages.

Outdoor pool - Salt water system, which means no smelly and yucky chlorine dying your clothes/hair!

Two gazebos, charcoal grills, picnic tables, grassy area for games, outdoor showers, fish-cleaning station, balcony at ends of the buildings with chairs so you can view the ocean.

No smoking inside the condo or on the property. You must walk to sidewalk or beach to smoke.

If I didn't list it, just ask!

Designed for families and adults who enjoy rest and relaxation. I grew up going to this exact condo and have always loved it! From always feeling safe and secure (private property) to all there is to do, I've always been happy.

To do (small list - email me with questions or for advice): Aquarium (less than 3 miles); Fort Macon State Park (less than 5 miles); Restaurants (Seafood, pizza, etc), Night-life, Food Lion, Dollar General within walking distance, Movie Theater (1.3 miles); Historic Beaufort waterfront, Maritime Museum, Morehead City waterfront close-by. Convenient store and piers within walking distance. Sidewalk is great for bike riding and jogging. Kayak, Jet Ski and Bicycle rentals all nearby. Splash Pad and Putt-putt courses close by...

Relaxing stay at beautiful beach

What a pleasant small condo for two people. Bed was perfectly comfortable, Wi-Fi fast, view nice, and location excellent. The beach gazebo was greatly enjoyed as was walking on the beach at low tide. Great pool too, although I just dangled my feet in and did not swim ;-).

This little condo is a great choice for a couple. Clean with all the basics you need. The beach is just steps away and visible from the room. The only down side is that it is not handicap accessible and the stairs can be hard to navigate if you have mobility issues ( bad knees, arthritis, etc.). But other than that, it was wonderful! We would definitely stay here again!

Great place for a stay at the beach

The owners are very friendly and responsive. They have a check in/out sheet that is easy to follow and quite thorough. The beach was very nice and not too crowded. The area was quiet and people were friendly. The property is as represented in the listing. The kitchen is well stocked; my only suggestion there would be to add a toaster. One small downside is the lack of any place to hang wet towels and bathing suits. the HOA does not allow you to hang them outside and the only place inside is the shower. On the whole it was a lovely stay and we would recommend it to future beach goers.

Thanks so much! We added a toaster and have super fast Internet now. I agree about the towels and wish we could hang them outside as well so they could dry faster. We have few hooks in the bathroom behind the door, but I know it's not the same as wind dried. :) Hope you're doing well and will stay again!

Response from VrboOwner on 8 July 2021
I'm sorry you feel that way. We tried everything to make you happy, but it was apparent from the beginning that you were not someone who could be satisfied. First, you called because you couldn't figure out the lockbox, which was ok. You admitted to yanking on it, thus making the doorknob loose. When you said that it wasn't clean when you arrived, we offered to have housekeepers come back and we verified with the owner of the cleaning business that the cleaner spent an hour and a half there prior to your stay. You said you were leaving the room and did not want anyone there while you were gone, then did not answer any further messages. I hope others can look at all the other reviews and not go by one negative person. Good luck to you with your future rentals.

The condo is small but perfect for a quick beach trip- perfectly located on the beach, private walkway and gazebo, and pool. It was clean and well-stocked. (We made a quick trip for coffee filters and cooking spray, otherwise every thing we needed was there). Would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Frances Flowers

Host profile image
The summers of my childhood were spent here, which is why I know that it's the perfect place to 'grow' and make yearly traditions! You will love it!

Why they chose this property

It is beachfront and near everything! You can roll out of bed and walk to the ocean in a few steps. You can relax and do nothing or stay busy and play! Either way, you will leave feeling refreshed and looking forward to the next time! We have people who book a year ahead and we're putting it on VRBO so we can share this with other families who need an affordable, yet nice, place to go.

Everyone here is very friendly and you will absolutely love the location! Also, you will not have to worry about strangers from other resorts walking through or parking, as it's a private place! The beach will never be crowded... YOU WILL LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT AND HAVE A GREAT TIME!! I'm 110% sure!

What makes this property unique

This is a first floor condo and you can park in front of your door. You can literally roll out of bed and get to the sand in a few steps.
