This property's price represents an Economy Rating for an ocean property with a pool, close to beach access. Expect a cleaned unit, but unimproved as to paint, carpet, and furnishings.  

Welcome to The Breakers: Out of Office! You'll be right at home in our crisp and casual condo. The beach is only just a few steps across the street to the access point, so you can go back and forth effortlessly. Take a shade break on our front porch and savor a peaceful beverage while rocking and taking in the salty sea air and ocean view. Or if you've had enough salt water, take a dip in our community marsh-side pool. Located right at the north end of the island and Freeman Park, you can walk over the Lo Tide Tiki Bar for a close by social hour, or walk or bicycle 1.5 miles down to the Sea Witch or many other bars, eateries, and stores at The Boardwalk. The north end of the island has been reenergized with last year's Beach renourishment and tons of summer action at the new Carolina Beach Pier.  Live music, surf activities, beverages, and a great food menu make the North End better than it's been since Florence!

Stroll through the marsh to visit the home of the famed Ft. Fisher Hermit. Or wind down with nature at our two state parks, sure to provide a memorable experience with hiking, fishing, and water activities such as paddle boarding and kayaking, and search for a Venus Flytrap which is native to NC only. As one of North Carolina's most undeveloped beaches, the island offers a unique opportunity to see many diverse coastal wildlife, including pelicans and loggerhead sea turtles, in their natural habitat. Whether it’s exploring activities on the island, appreciating the ocean vistas, or enjoying a beverage by sunset from your own private balcony, Pleasure Island offers diversion for every enthusiast!

One of the last remaining beach boardwalks on the East Coast, it includes a variety of eateries, an arcade, stores, ice cream, Famous Britts Donuts, bars, and more! During the summer months, the Boardwalk is bustling with the sound of music, carnival rides, bingo, family nights, and events like the weekly fireworks and concert series.

Our top Southport vacation rental booking tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select your dates and budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Pet Friendly Condo with Ocean and Canal Views has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the host before booking your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what is best for your vacation.
• If there's an individual Southport destination you crave, browse properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Make a record of any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be very helpful if damages are assessed.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great resource to find the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to stimulate more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
