About this Property

Is there anything better than a peaceful sunrise on an oceanfront balcony and a day of enjoyment stretching out ahead of you, as wide and empty as the beach itself? Definitely not. But the Atlantic sunrises are just one reason to adore Rolling Waves, our 3-bedroom oceanfront Indian Beach condo on North Carolina's glorious Crystal Coast.

Other reasons include:

It's family-chummy! Colorful and fun inside, the condo also has beach gear like sand toys for the littlest visitors, body boards for the teens and tweens (they'll value the WiFi, too), and beach chairs for you and that novel you've been waiting to read.

Bedrooms include a master suite with king bed and en-suite bath, a 2nd bedroom with a twin-over-full bunkbed, and a 3rd bedroom with a queen bed (these two bedrooms share a bath). Ideal for parents, grandparents and kiddos on a hideaway together. It's also friend-friendlygreat for two couples or girls weekends and golf outings.

The vistas! So good they deserve a second mention. Not only do you get the oceanfront vantage point of the Atlantic from the balcony and living area, you also have a view of the Bogue Inlet Sound from the master bedroom. Head to the sound side of the complex and have a drink with fellow visitors as you watch the sun sink into the Inlet!

The kitchen is set up for real preparing. With stainless appliances (including double ovens and a drink cooler to complimentary up refrigerator space), and well-outfitted cabinets, you can conveniently prep meals for the group. But no judgement if you prefer not to prepare on holiday. We're just mins. from some delicious seafood eateries, and the kitchen is equally great for heating up leftovers. :)

Our alluring condo resort, The Sea Club (one of the top-reviewed in North Carolina). An elevator whisks you to our second-floor, 1150-square-foot condo. Other niceties include a exercise center, boardwalk access to the beach, and 2 heated, outdoor swimming pools that are open year-round.

We're a real family who owns, manages, and loves this condo, not a sizable unit management company. We remember your name and care about your good time on our favorite beach. Ask us anything!

ABOUT INDIAN BEACH & THE CRYSTAL COAST

In Indian Beach, you'll find the freshest seafood around at markets and eateries, plus a low-key community vibe with an fresh, Low Country vibe.

Tips to Save Money on your Rental

These guides can provide an excellent start to your rental search.
• Are you willing to alter your trip dates? Off-peak times offer tremendous deals.
• Are you a military veteran? Many management companies provide price cuts to vets and active-duty servicemembers. Make sure to confirm with property owner to see if your visiting group is eligible for a discounted price.
• Some homes are primarily suited for specific groups of guests. Large event homes are perfect for weddings, wedding parties and corporate escapes. Some properties appeal to wildlife enthusiasts. Other homes are positioned close to music venues. You will definitely get the most value from a rental which most closely suits your ideal holiday setting, regardless if it costs a bit more.
• Think about getting trip insurance along with your leasing contract. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base rental cost, provides guests reimbursement of their trip expenses for any days missed a result of medical emergencies or hurricanes, in addition to ensuing extra hurricane evacuation costs or expenses, like an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline.

Bedrooms and Bed Sizes Matter

You will need to figure out what is suitable for your family. Most vacation home listings will outline each of the unit's specific bedrooms and mattresses.

Commit to a Budget

Many rentals are advertised with a cost range. Confirm the rate for your preferred week. It could be at the high end of the range. If several groups or relatives are sharing the cost, ensure each party understands their responsibilities and has approved a maximum they are prepared to contribute. A single member of your party will have to be in charge of collecting contributions and acknowledging responsibility for the whole rental payment at time of reservation.

What amenities is the family interested in? Is a screened deck a necessity? Do you wish to be away from it all, or near civilization?

• How do you feel about your choice? Many rental home management companies and rental home sites make it easy for travellers to give feedback. If your vacation rental and/or property manager was great, they will appreciate your compliments. If something was wrong and they did not fix it in a practical manner, or if the rental wasn't as described, you may want to make it a point in your feedback.
