If you want to be as close to the ocean without actually being in it, Sea Forever, a top floor, oceanfront condo is for you! The view anywhere from the deck, living room and bedroom at Sea Forever to the Atlantic Ocean and miles of beach is beautiful.

The beach is routinely "re-nourished", with City access walkways placed every couple of blocks. This year the closest sandy beach access is at Sandfiddler or by the pier. However, that being said, any storm can change the access points at any time. This year it looks like the beach is limited right in front of the condo.

Seascape lies directly on the beach. Sea Forever's deck, off the living room and bedroom, offers a great vantage point from which to watch the action and look at the north pier. Late summer evening dinner on the deck is one of the special experiences this condo offers and the view is spectacular. It feels as though you are on a ship, with an broad view of the beach and ocean.
There is also a striking view of the inter-coastal waterway and marsh of the island from the huge kitchen window.

Seascape property also offers a private pool with a landscaped courtyard. Outdoor grilles are available near the pool for family or group outings. There are bicycle racks and you can bring a boat on a trailer if you give us some notice. It can be parked safely right across the street at our Courtyard property.

The condo has a good size bedroom with walk-in closet, a door directly leading to the deck, a sizable ocean facing window, with a Queen-size bed. In the living room there is a sliding glass door where there is full-size seating. Either place affords a great place to listen to the ocean while you doze off to nap or sleep.

Major renovations are done periodically including sliding door and all windows, range, dishwasher, microwave, granite countertops, floor and new HVAC in 2022, to name a few. The bathroom and kitchen floors are tiled. New plank floor and painted walls throughout. New bedroom and living room set and TV in 2022.

Sea Forever has a completely equipped kitchen with microwave, blender, toaster, coffee grinder and coffee maker, as well as all the other silverware to make your meals in case you decide to relax on the deck while looking at the ocean. There is a table and chairs on the deck and new PollyWood chairs, for your enjoyment while you sit outdoors and watch the sky, ocean, surfers, pelicans and dolphins!

Two blocks away is the entrance to Freeman Park, a 1 ½ mile stretch of open beach, and one of the last few beaches you can drive on. If you have a 4-wheel drive you can drive right on the beach and spend the day fishing, surfing, swimming, walking or just appreciating the ocean breeze.

Carolina Beach Boardwalk is an simple bicycle ride away. Savor seasonal concerts, fireworks, outdoor movies and a Farmer's Market. Feel the sights and sounds of the carnival rides, arcade games, cotton candy and Britt's Donuts at the Boardwalk. You can find the dates for these activities and other information from the City website.

We limit the condo to TWO (2) guests.
NO family pets and NO smoking in condo or deck.
Please respect these requests. Thank you

Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

When to go & When to book:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Carolina Beach. Book your rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Southport visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides have coupons for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Selecting the best rental home:

• Begin by selecting the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Lovely Oceanfront Condo????VastTop FloorView????Pool????WiFiCable????Quiet N End ????2 Max has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. Otherwise, email or call the host before you book the home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a certain Southport beach you love, browse properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental

Considerations for your stay:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the host right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to drive new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
