THE SPACE
Welcome to Blue Water Vista Unit B, a roomy 5BR/4BA Carolina Beach apartment spanning two levels with plenty of room for families and friends to vacation together.
Savor a full kitchen, comfortable living and dining spaces, an upper-level kitchenette, multiple balconies, a private elevator and a 2-seat Ms. Pac-Man arcade. Outside, appreciate the saltwater pool, backyard, charcoal grille, outdoor shower and beach storage shared with Unit A guests.
Public beach access is less than a block away, with canal sunsets, the Boardwalk and local dining all close by.
MAIN LEVEL — LIVING SPACE + 3 BEDROOMS
Open, comfortable and made for group vacations.
• Full kitchen
• Dining area
• Living room
• Multiple balconies
• Wi-Fi
• Washer & dryer
• Private elevator
Ideal for family dinners, movie nights and repeatedly checking the refrigerator to see if new snacks have appeared.
SLEEPING & BATHROOMS
BEDROOM 1 — KING SUITE
• King bed
• Ensuite full bathroom
• Private balcony access
BEDROOM 2 — QUEEN SUITE
• Queen bed
• Ensuite full bathroom
BEDROOM 3 — BUNK ROOM
• Queen bed
• Twin-over-twin bunk bed
• Twin floor bed
THIRD FULL BATHROOM
• Convenient to the bunk room and main living area
Three bedrooms and three full bathrooms on this level make getting everybody beach-ready a whole lot easier.
UPPER LEVEL — 2 BEDROOMS
The upper level gives your group even more room to spread out.
• Kitchenette
• Additional gathering space
• 2-seat Ms. Pac-Man arcade
• Multiple balconies
• Private elevator
• Stair access to top deck
Friendly competition is encouraged. High-score grudges should probably be left at checkout.
SLEEPING & BATHROOMS
BEDROOM 4 — KING ROOM
• King bed
• Private balcony access
BEDROOM 5 — QUEEN ROOM WITH WORKSPACE & KITCHENETTE
• Queen bed
• Private balcony access
FOURTH FULL BATHROOM
• Full bathroom with tub
• Convenient to both upper-level bedrooms
PRIVATE ELEVATOR
Unit B has its own elevator from ground level to both apartment levels. Unit A guests do not have access.
It makes arrival much easier when your group brings bags, groceries, beach gear and apparently every shoe anyone owns.
The elevator does not continue to the top deck, so stairs are required for top-deck access.
TOP DECK
A few additional stairs lead to one of the best spots in the home.
Appreciate:
• Ocean view
• Coastal breezes
• Morning coffee
• Evening downtime
The ocean view is specifically from the top deck, while canal vistas and striking sunsets can be appreciated more readily from the apartment and balconies.
Consider the additional stairs your contribution toward earning dessert.
OUTDOOR SPACE
Ground-floor amenities are shared with Unit A guests:
• In-ground saltwater pool
• Partially fenced backyard
• Charcoal grille
• Outdoor shower
• Outdoor seating & gathering areas
• Beach-friendly ground-floor storage
PARTIALLY FENCED BACKYARD
The yard is not completely enclosed, so kids and dogs should be supervised outdoors.
Please use the charcoal grille only in the designated ground-level area. Grilling is not allowed on balconies, decks or porches.
Rinse off after the beach, stash sandy gear downstairs and head back up without bringing half the beach with you.
At least, that’s the goal.
BEACH, VIEWS & LOCATION
Public Beach Access is less than a block away, making trips to the sand—and fast runs back for forgotten sunscreen—simple.
Enjoy canal vistas and gorgeous sunsets from the apartment and balconies, then head out to discover close by Carolina Beach favorites:
• Carolina Beach Boardwalk
• Eateries, cafés & stores
• Carolina Beach Marina
• Carolina Beach Lake
• Freeman Park
• Carolina Beach State Park
• Kure Beach
• Fort Fisher
• Fishing, boating & surfing activities
Beach, seafood, Boardwalk or pool?
Excellent problem to have.
WHOLE-HOME RO FILTERED WATER
The home features whole-home reverse osmosis filtration, providing fresh, filtered water for drinking, cooking, coffee and everyday use.
Beach water belongs in the ocean.
We think it should stay there.
DOG-FRIENDLY
Dogs are welcome subject to the pet limits and costs shown with your reservation.
Because the backyard is partially fenced rather than entirely enclosed, pups should be supervised outdoors and securely leashed as required.
They will probably assume the entire vacation was planned specifically for them.
We suggest letting them believe it.
PARKING
Unit B includes carport parking for up to 3 cars.
Please use only the spaces designated for Unit B.
Five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, multiple balconies, a private elevator, canal sunsets, an ocean view from the top deck, saltwater pool access and the beach less than a block away—Unit B gives your group plenty of reasons to settle in and stay awhile.
Bring your favorite people, pack the swimsuits and settle the only debate that really matters:
Beach first or pool first?
