About this property

Varuna is a paradise among the waves with every amenity and comfort!

(5BR/4BA, 1K, 2Q, 4 Tw, SLP 10, 2 golf carts, Sunday Turn in Peak Season, CHECK OUT 10:30AM / CHECK IN 4:30PM) "Varuna, Varuna, under la luna" is a paradise among the waves-boasting every amenity and comfort you could imagine. Enjoy the long open decks, large screened porch, beautiful butterfly garden and private boardwalk to the beach from this five-bedroom, four-bath sanctuary. Plus, Varuna's location lets you relish ocean sunsets and enjoy quick and easy access to ALL BHI has to offer. Inside this retreat, you'll discover three levels of comfort and fun. Enter the light-filled first level-it features grand open living areas with tiled floors and ocean panoramas through walls of glass. Don't miss the custom, inlaid tile compass right inside the front door. The gathering space provides comfy furniture, a flat screen, interesting books and loads of puzzles and games. There's also a game table cornered by two walls of glass.

The interior dining space also includes two glass walls: one with views of the ocean and the other granting peeks at the cardinals who call the sculpted junipers and Island holly just outside their home. No matter which way you look, there is something interesting to see. If dining al fresco is your preference, feast on the spacious screened porch with its vistas of the Atlantic fronted by the dunes' swaying sea oats. Close by both dining areas is a fantastic chef's kitchen with plenty of counter space for meal prep as well as all the equipage you could want for snacking, serving and socializing. A Primary King Master Suite is located on this main level and offers a private sitting area, direct deck access, inspiring ocean prospects and a large bathroom with dual sinks and plenty of counter and storage space.

Half a flight up is another Owner Suite presenting a Queen bed and dual-sink full bath. Both of these spotlight custom ceilings with lighted cupolas for added ambiance. Ten steps up from the second suite is Varuna's top floor and a circular deck that dazzles with spectacular ocean perspectives. It's one of the best spots to savor Bald Head's glorious sunsets. There are also two additional bedrooms on this level with two Twins each, a full bath and a central gathering area featuring a snug couch and TV as well as more games, puzzles and children's books.

Varuna's crofter offers a very private and comfortable Queen suite with a full bath and direct deck access. Other accoutrements this property provides are a gas grill, outdoor shower, internet access, and two golf carts. Varuna does not have bikes or beach chairs. There are bicycle rental companies on the island for your vacation fun. Please let us know if we can assist in securing some bikes for your stay. Just remember, under both the sun and the moon, a week or more at Varuna is time well-spent!

Don't forget, with Wendy Wilmot Properties there are no surprise "add-on" expenses. Plus, our homes' rental charges include cleaning fees, damage insurance and our Property Manager Assistance Line, available you'll appreciate if your air conditioning goes out on the weekend or you get a golf cart flat after 5 PM.

May 2024 Stay
Varuna is a well maintained and beautiful beach home. We were pleased overall with location, views, size, and design layout of home. There are many nice touches and details. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking supplies for all of our needs. We loved being able to seat everyone for our large dinner gatherings! We just loved the outdoor spaces especially the screen porch and ocean breezes. Fortunately the week was not too hot because the upstairs AC units for upstairs bedrooms rooms did not work and were not fully repaired. The property manager addressed this and was super responsive but the hvac technician did not repair the problem properly to fix the system. We had to use our xbox to stream tv because we could not get the tv to work. Recommendations for Kid rooms: I recommend one room with 1 queen and 1 twin in lieu of 2 twin beds. One room with 2 plush extra long twins for the taller grown adult kids. Thank you for the opportunity to rent your beautiful home.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were scheduled to stay at a different house within the same rental company and there was an issue so we were changed Varuna last minute.The outside accommodations of this house are unbeatable with all the furniture and amazing views. The house was beautiful and very comfortable for our stay.

All-round gracious beach living
We loved our fortnight in Varuna - a true beach home, spacious, cool, elegant finishes and excellent room layout - exceeded all our expectations! Private en suite bedrooms, large living room, kitchen (big Subzero, lots of useful pots, tools and dishes🙏), screened porch and sunny patio made entertaining so easy and comfortable. Bonus: owner’s glorious collection of jigsaw puzzles for rainy days!

We loved Varuna. The house had everything we needed and more. The space was perfect for eight of us and we loved being able to walk right out to the beach. The screened in porch with a table for eight made our meals together even more enjoyable. We sat together past meal time every evening catching up and telling stories. The puzzle table gave us the opportunity to complete two 1,000 piece and one 500 piece puzzles during our stay. And the delightful and well stocked kitchen offered room for several of us to prepare meals together. We loved the layout, decor, furnishings and location of Varuna and we hope to be back next summer. Thank you very much!
