About this property

Lulla-by the Sea an Amazing Oceanfront Beach House With Pool and Elevator

Lulla-by the Sea-B, the left side of a duplex, is centrally located between the Fort Fisher NC Aquarium in the town of Kure Beach and the Boardwalk in Carolina Beach. Dig your toes in the warm sand and relax until your heart's content. Enjoy vacationing at Lulla-by the Sea and see what Kure Beach and Pleasure Island has to offer.

Pleasure Island has many wonderful attractions to keep everyone happy. Activities including historic Fort Fisher aquarium, sailing/boating, fishing, and shopping are some things offered. Great restaurants are located on the island and close to fine dining in Wilmington, NC. Each night, during the summer, offers a different adventure from Sunday night open air movies at the lake to Thursday night fireworks and live music at the boardwalk. We have one of the best fireworks display around as this is a weekly event during the summer. Don't leave the boardwalk without buying a Britt's Doughnut (ask anyone, they will tell you this is the best doughnut, ever).

Lulla-by-the Sea is a beautiful 5 bedroom 4 bath, oceanfront home (left side of duplex), with semi-private beach access, shared pool (with side A. It is not heated and is not available for usage from November through mid-April) and a private elevator. We have gone above and beyond furnishing our home to make sure your stay is memorable. Lulla-by the Sea comfortably sleeps up to 14 guests. You'll love looking at the Atlantic Ocean from the 2nd and 3rd level decks of this 2900 square foot gorgeous oceanfront three story home.

This three story duplex offers the best of the beach with amazing ocean views from the second and third level decks. Relax on the deck or tan beside the 16 x 32 saltwater pool (shared with side A, not heated and not available between November and mid-April) with footwash. Enjoy the complimentary high speed wifi service and smart TV's.

Upon entering Lulla-by the Sea, you will find that the ground floor offers a private garage with laundry (full size washer and dryer) area at the rear of the garage, an elevator that will access all three floors, and a large bedroom with full bath. This brightly decorated bedroom has a queen size bed and is equipped with a flat screen smart TV. It is great for teenagers to get away from the adults and have a private area.

Ascend to the open second floor and step into the gorgeous living room with breathtaking views of the ocean. This level has wood floors, double crown molding, chair rail and a back wall of windows with outstanding ocean views. There are two love seats, a sofa and a woven chair for plenty of seating. Need extra sleeping space, open the sofa and make a comfortable bed. This room has a large 47” HD smart TV with DVD player. Walk outside onto an oceanfront deck where you can grill your nights dinner, or sit and enjoy a stunning sunrise. A semi-private beach access leads to the white sandy beaches of Kure Beach.

A stunning open floor plan on the building’s second floor allows easy entertaining for large groups. The dining area includes a large dining room table with seating for 8, while six people can sit at the bar. A completely well equipped kitchen with granite countertops, 5 burner gas cooktop, and stainless steel appliances makes cooking a breeze. This kitchen is stocked with all everything utensil, pot, pan, dishes, and gadgets you can imagine.

This floor also has a large bedroom with queen bed, walk out balcony, large closet, crown molding and flat screen smart TV. A bathroom with bath/shower combo is located close by. A hall closet holds adult and children's games and books, movies, extra linens for the sofa bed, first aid kit, cards, larger pots, and cleaning supplies.

The top floor, with wood floors, offers three additional bedrooms and two bathrooms. The middle bedroom, with a large closet, has two sets of bunk beds. The shared bathroom, with the bunk bedroom room and front street side king bedroom, has a bath/shower combo. The large street side bedroom has a king size bed with a small walk out balcony, and a flat screen smart TV. Enjoy a little bit of quiet time while reading a book in the sitting area in this room. A pack-n-play is located in this bedroom closet.

The large master suite with its stunning views, has a king bed, flat screen smart TV, and an extra-large walk in closet. Relax in the private bathroom with the deep soaking tub, large vanity with his/her sinks, and separate tiled walk in shower. Watch the dolphins or take in the beauty of an amazing sunrise or enjoy a cup of coffee on your private deck.

Outside from the living room on the second floor is a large area to relax with a cup of coffee or glass of wine. Enjoy a delicious meal cooked on the gas grill. Take a dip in the lighted swimming pool shared with side A (not heated and not available from November - mid-April) with foot wash. Stroll over to the beach on the semi-private walk. Look for shells or grab a good book and beach chair and loose yourself for the day.

The Lulla by the Sea was a great place to rest, relax and reset. The house was beautiful, clean, and comfortable. The location was superb, steps from the beach. We had an incredible stay, and everyone had the best time. This was without a doubt the one of the best couple trip we have had.

Perfect beach, safe location, comfy home!

Everything we needed, and more. The kitchen was super stocked, so we were able to easily (and comfortably) make all meals in the house. Pool was a perfect escape from the sand, and a great temperature for cooling off. Location was wonderful, and we felt super safe with our family and kids having some freedom to adventure. Thank you again!

Debby-by-the-Sea

Vacationing at the beach during the same week a tropical storm named Debby comes to town is never a good thing. However, the convenient beachfront location of Lulla-by the Sea meant we could quickly take advantage of every band of calm clear weather. We headed outside as soon as the rains stopped and didn’t miss a day at the beach or pool! And when we were stuck inside, the clean spacious floor plan provided ample room for fun indoor activities for the little ones and the third floor balcony presented amazing views of the oceans waves and stormy skies. This was the perfect house to experience it all.

Property wasn't quite ready at 5pm -- but not a complaint. They were leaving as we arrived at 5:30pm. Communication with owner was terrific and her local restaurant suggestions quite helpful! Elevator was helpful with luggage to floors 2 & 3. Kitchen had plenty of service for the 11 of us. Overall a great experience!

Awesome place to stay!

This property is immaculate! It has all the comforts of home and then some! I couldn't ask for anything more. The property was clean when we arrived. Towels, sheets and basic toiletries were supplied. The big kitchen offered plenty of room for several cooks to be in the kitchen at one time and had all the latest appliances! The pool was clean, had plenty of chairs and some toys for the kids! The spacious deck was a great place to sit anytime of the day and offered a good view of the pool and the ocean. It also had a nice gas grill for grilling out. All rooms were beautifully furnished, clean and had plenty of space. Fourteen people were comfortable here and you could easily have room for a few more if needed.

Fantastic Beach House for Surf and Sun

Three generations of our family loved our week at Lulla-by the Sea beach house. It is the best stocked and furnished of any we've rented. The location is highly convenient to Kure and Carolina Beach attractions, restaurants and amenities. The beach is wide and sandy, perfect for sunning or swimming. We loved running and walking on the beach for miles in both directions. The house is spacious and beautifully decorated. Very comfortable. The kitchen is large and perfect for preparing large family meals. The elevator is a big plus for getting luggage to the 3rd floor bedrooms. The outdoor area includes a very nice pool, quality large propane grill, deck chairs + table, and beach chairs. Parking for 4 vehicles (1 in garage) is a definite advantage. The owner is highly responsive, very pleasant to deal with, and completely committed to guests' satisfaction. Her support staff (cleaning, management) get the job done - well and quickly. Recommended without reservation! You will not be disappointed!

Perfect for a family getaway!!!

This house has it ALL and more! My family and I were so impressed with this house. I really don’t think you can beat the bang for your buck. We’ve stayed at lots of different beach houses along the east coast over the years, and this one is in my top 3 for sure. I cannot emphasize how convenient the walk to the beach is. I think that was my favorite part. I was there with my 7 month old baby, and wanted to be on the beach as much as possible, but also knew I would constantly be making trips in and out of the house to feed her, and put her down for naps. In the past, many homes we’ve stayed at had loooong walk ways with lots of steps to get over the dunes. Walking to and from the beach could feel like a small hike. But this house had the shortest, flattest, most convenient walk to the beach I’ve ever had! If you take that into account along with the fact that this house has an elevator, I would say it’s extremely accessible for the elderly, or those with a wheelchair. It came fully stocked with enough essentials to last us all week (dish & laundry detergent, dryer sheets, trash bags, soap, etc). The kitchen has EVERYTHING you could possibly ask for (plenty of: utensils, gadgets, pots, pans, etc). Check in/out was a breeze. We had one small issue with the elevator, but the property manager was there asap to help us out (our fault for not having all doors closed for the elevator to work properly). Thank you Renee! We’ll be back :)
