Tucked just steps from the shoreline in handsome Oak Island, The Crooked Palm is a coastal escape designed for effortless, elevated group getaways. This cavernous 5-bedroom, 5-bath home offers nearly 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, blending modren finishes with casual beachside comfort. With simple beach access and water vistas from multiple vantage points, you get the best of island living without compromise.
Inside, the home is constructed to bring people together while still offering the privacy today’s travelers expect. The bright, open-concept top floor serves as the heart of the home, featuring a chef’s kitchen with a enormous island, generous dining space, and a comfortable living area that opens onto broad decking—ideal for everything from family dinners to laid-back evenings after the beach. Additional living space throughout the home accepts everybody to spread out and relax, making it ideal for multi-family stays or group trips.
The sleeping layout is where The Crooked Palm really shines. Four roomy bedrooms feature king beds and their own private full bathrooms, offering comfort and privacy that’s hard to find in most beach homes. A separate bunk room provides the ideal setup for kids or additional guests, giving families the flexibility they need without sacrificing space or convenience.
Outside, the experience continues. The private pool area is designed for long, calming days in the sun, complete with a constructed-in spa-style soaking ledge—ideal for cooling off or relaxing (note: this is not a heated hot tub). Additional $55 per nighttime to heat the pool but it must be heated for the entire stay. It is not supplied in the booking. It is an added fee. Please message host to add the fee. After a day on the sand, rinse off, fire up the grille, or relax on one of the multiple decks as the coastal breeze rolls in. From sunrise coffee to sunset vistas over the waterway, every detail is constructed around appreciating the outdoors.
With its thoughtful layout, high-end sleeping arrangements, and unbeatable proximity to the beach, The Crooked Palm offers a stay that’s as comfortable as it is memorable—one guests will want to return to year after year.
