Mayor's Penthouse 4BR w/Elevator - Work remotely with an ocean view! - Vacation rental home in Carolina Beach, NC

The beach is quieter now, but the vistas are just as spectacular. Start your day with a brisk walk along the shore, some yoga on the beach or a simple cup of coffee on the deck while the sun rises.

If you work remotely and want to find inspiration, this is the place for you. It's ideal for a couple or a modest group of friends who need to work, but want to do so together but in a different space.

Be inspired by the ambient sounds of the ocean, the sparkle of the sun on the water and the energizing air of the beach.

The Mayor's Penthouse is all about capturing the best moments of life. Sometimes a change of scenery is all you need to bring a great idea to life. It's a place where colleagues become friends, and partners can build futures together.

If you're in a position to create something new for yourself, a new setting could be the catalyst that inspires and motivates you to do something profound.

And if you need to meet an important client to close the deal, the Mayor's Penthouse is the ideal place to toast a new partnership.

Our oceanfront home was originally designed by the Carolina Beach mayor, who lived here for years. It is a cavernous 2,300 sq ft getaway with a private elevator and on-site covered parking. Two bedrooms, the living room and dining room have all been refreshed by Porchlight Interior Designs, new for 2026. This includes a new sectional couch, 65-inch TV, new dining room set and two Polywood tables for the deck.

We offer a completely outfitted kitchen and plenty of room for creating memorable memories. We have a beach wagon, 4 beach chairs and some picnic supplies that you can roll out to the beach for a day in the sun.

You might see pelicans diving in for lunch, surfers trying to catch a wave, or -- if you're really lucky -- a pod of dolphins trailing a shrimp boat on their daily commute.

The primary bedroom features a king bed, a daybed, Roku TV, full dresser w mirror, a modest private balcony with sunset vistas and a luxury bathroom with a shower, towel warmer and a soaking tub.

The second bedroom features a king bed and a full dresser w mirror. It shares a jack-and-jill bathroom with the third bedroom, which includes a queen bed.

The fourth bedroom has a brand-new full bed under a twin bunk. The third bathroom is a shower only and is across the hall from the fourth bedroom.

Linens are included and all bathrooms are modern and handsome. Each room has a bags rack for your convenience.

We are located midway between the Carolina Beach Boardwalk and the Carolina Beach Pier, so you're about .7 miles from eateries (Nollie's Tacos and Stoked are the closest) and entertainment, and you'll have a striking view of the weekly fireworks.

Our new friend Eric also operates a breakfast/lunch/mini-mart just half a block from our doorstep. It's a great place to get your morning coffee and a bagel for brunch. He also has sunscreen, aspirin, toiletries and anything else you might have forgotten to pack. You can also grab your beer and wine to prepare for your evening watching the moonrise from the deck.

If you have any questions, please feel complimentary to message us. We are thrilled with the updates from Porchlight Interiors and we hope you adore them as much as we do. We look forward to hearing your thoughts and welcoming you into our penthouse.

Your hosts, Michael and Tania, are local to Wilmington, so if you need a tip for finding the best local hangouts, how to charter a boat ride to a private island or our insiders' tips for surprisingly good food, we'll be here to answer any questions.

Our hope is that our home will be the place where you make the memories that you will remember fondly -- the memories that bond friends and family for decades to come.

It's all about the moments. Carpe momenta, our new friends!
