Welcome to Beach Retreat West. This 2nd row duplex has it all. Savor great ocean and sound vistas without the oceanfront rental prices. This home is in magnificant condition, with over 2000 sq. feet of living space. View the ocean or sound from every single room in the home. Walk out onto the decks, and the ocean vistas will take your breath away. I promise, once you have been here for a week, or two, you will never want to leave.

You will wake up in the mornings, walk out onto the decks, and gaze out over the gorgeous Crystal Coast. Take a deep breath and you will smell Emerald Isle's salty air. This home has four bedroom, with queen beds (all with deck/balcony access), a kids' loft/entertainment area (four twin beds), with TV/VCR/DVD. There is also a sizable collection of books, movies, games, puzzles, and a stereo system all there for your enjoyment.

Cook all your favorite foods in the completely outfitted kitchen, while you look out the window at the ocean. Dine in and entertain in the enormous, open living/ dining room. Watch t.v on the flat screen TV, while calming on the couch.

Step out on the deck the take in the impressive vistas of the beach from both directions. If you watch carefully, you may even catch a glimpse of dolphin swimming by. If the sun gets too hot for you on top, walk downstairs, where you can savor a covered deck that provides tons of shade.

One of my favorite amenities with this home is the beach access. There is a wooden walkway directly across the street that leads you straight to the beach. This is extremely important if you are like me, with five kids and it seems like you bring everything but the kitchen sink with you. We always have so much to carry back and forth, that having the convenience of the beach access is priceless.

Finally, after a fun-filled day on the beach, put the kids to bed and walk back out onto the deck. Sit back and look at the moon as it shines over the ocean. This view will just put an exclamation point on your day. Get a good nighttime sleep and get ready to do it all over again tomorrow.

I hope after reading this, you are excited about visiting with us. We look forward to making our 'Little Piece of Heaven', heaven for you and your family too. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions, comments or concerns that you might have.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Crystal Coast vacation property experience:

Find your perfect vacation home:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking in the Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Property management companies sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Crystal Coast area visitors guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Crystal Coast visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your search:

• Start by choosing your trip dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Beach Retreat West - Save 25% now through March 31st - Contact Owner for Details has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before you book the home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or applied to your invoice.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .

Know before you go:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Record any issues with the property at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to propel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
