Welcome to E Sea U! You will find tranquility and relaxation in this beautiful beach home at Carolina Beach. This enchanting dwelling is located in the center of many choices for you & your family to savor. We are located in very close proximity to: two min. walk to the ocean, one block to the lake, .6 mile from the Carolina Beach Center and a short distance to many fine eating places. Our bungalow fronts both South Lake Park Blvd & Carolina Beach South streets. You can walk to the Carolina Beach Center on the lightly used one lane paved street or walk on the beach. The Carolina Beach Center has amusement rides for the kids, Frank's delicious pizzas and Britt's doughnuts. People wait in line for over an hour to get Britt's doughnuts.

This bungalow features a kitchen and family room combined, with enchanting tile floors. The kitchen is equipped with a microwave and dishwasher. Whether you dine on the barstools or table, you will appreciate the "beachy" feel this home has to offer. There are three bedrooms each with a queen bed, and hard wood floors. There are two baths one with a tub & the other has a shower. There is an h/c outside shower with a dressing area for those long hot days in the sun. The sunroom has a trundle bed which means there is room to sleep 8 comfortably. You will appreciate the unique "dressing table area," which accepts the lady of the home to spend more time preparing for a walk to one of the eateries or stores. We have parking for four cars, one under the home & three parked in a row behind the bungalow. The area under the bungalow is covered with concrete where renters enjoy sitting in the shade with a cool breeze spending time with their family & friends. There are two beach accesses behind the bungalow one on each side roughly the same distance from the bungalow. You will be on the beach in two mins. after you leave the bungalow.

Tips and Tricks to get the best rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in Carolina Beach. Booking your Southport vacation home in the Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Southport visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking your Southport vacation home:

• Choose vacation dates and budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. One Street Over - Cottage by the Sea! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available online. Otherwise, email the host before booking your rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain Southport beach you are enamored with, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the property manager right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to propel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
