2 bedroom top-floor condo at Peppertree Atlantic Beach Resort, right on the ocean. Beachfront building 18: SEE MAP in PHOTO Section. Full kitchen, elevator, full resort activities, minigolf, indoor+outdoor pools, hot tub, tennis, washer/dryer. Walk to movie theaters, grocery, eateries, surf stores, and retail. Down to studs reno & update in 2020. Sleeps 6 (King+2 Twins+Queen Sofabed, or 7-8 if you bring an air bed to fit in twin room; worked with family of 8 once). Prime location @resort. Great for families, extended families, or just adults on vacation. Just 60 seconds walking to the beach access path.

We have multiple positive reviews on Airb&b for this property, but are also freshly on Vacation Rental By Owner. But you can find our same property with about 10 reviews there.

**Our preference is to rent out our 7 day week to guests that want it for the entire 7 days from Friday to Friday. If you wish to rent for less than 7 nights and check in or check out on other days, please feel complimentary to message and let us know what you want. The weekend nights of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are the most expensive nights, and if we only rent for those, it leaves the other weekday nights as the only remaining nights which are harder for us to rent.**

Full blown beach resort. Reviews are on trip advisor. Gorgeous wooded area with paths and walkways, and then a bigger open area closer to the beach. Great for families or groups. Lots of kids activities like a kiddie pool, sprayground/splashpad, playground, basketball court, mini-golf, hammocks, gym/exercise center. On site activities department provides tons of options for families and individuals to participate in special events, pig pickin', scavenger hunts, crafts, games, introductions to local attractions. Super convenient, and this is the prime condo location within the resort.

complimentary parking for max of 2 cars (you'll get up to 2 parking passes), walking distance to grocery, movies, eateries, and shopping at Atlantic Station. 5 mins. to Morehead City waterfront, 12 mins. to historic Beaufort.

Super convenient and brand new 2020 completely REBUILT (down to the studs) after 2018 hurricane. Renovated and refreshed 2 bedroom condo at Peppertree oceanfront resort. Top floor beachfront ocean location, so no noisy upstairs neighbors! Elevator and bags carts for groceries, beach stuff, and suitcases. Master bedroom (King bed) with master bathroom, granite double vanity, tub & shower, 2nd bedroom has 2 twin beds, and living area has pull out full sized sofabed. 3 flat screen TVs with cable, one in each room, complimentary wifi, entirely equipped granite counter kitchen, resort activities. 3 pools including one indoor and two outdoors, plus splash pad / sprayground plus hot tub. Go downstairs and in 60 seconds you'll be on the beach walkway. This is a VERY family friendly place. Why just rent a beach home when you can get an entire resort for the same rate?

The washers and dryers in the laundry center are now COMPLIMENTARY for all guests.

Please note that our photos have a range of years shown in the view towards the ocean from the condo. The photo captions reflect the growth and popularity of our resort beachfront location, and in addition to some showing the legacy view before 2018, they also show a handful of new single family homes constructed since the 2018 hurricane. These new homes on the dunes are adjacent to the beach access walkway. It's still an fantastic view to the ocean and walk is just as painless to get to the sand, but we wanted to fully disclose why the photos range from completely unobstructed to more homes on the dunes. And we also wanted to show how after the hurricane rebuild, that the beach access path and shelter look different compared to the main listing photo.

Our condo is located beachfront in Phase 2 (buildings 15-25)

The other Peppertree listing here on Airb&b (not mine) is for Phase 3 (buildings 26-33) and located rather a walk from the beach in the mosquito/swampy tree area close to the highway. The Phase 3 building style looks very "motel / motor court" type of accommodations much like Motel 6 where you park 3 feet from your front door, rather than a "beach condo." The other listing will not indicate that's where your condo will be, but if you are booking for the Summer, you will 100% be booked there despite where the website price tag appears on the map.

To avoid being disappointed and wanting to cancel an alternate booking, ask the host EXACTLY which condo building and floor you are booking BEFORE you purchase, and compare it to the building map in photos here. I can promise you our condo is EXACTLY as posted at building 18, top floor, and that we personally took the photos. Just saying, watch out.

Read the booking reviews for the cheaper options ("2 Bedroom Atlantic Beach Condo with Beach Access" and "hosted by Kevin" ) and you'll see complaints like "no view" "surrounded by trees" "long walk to beach". I stopped counting after 15 different reviews said "not the condo from the photos in the listing" for that listing. Book it and you will be WAY far in the back of the resort next to the road when booking summer time thru that listing or those stating Wyndham/Ramada reservations.

Sometimes the other sites will appear to list this resort as Wyndham/Ramada but that's just using their reservations platform to offer inventory in the worst section of the resort. The property itself is in no way a Wyndham or a Ramada property and is not affiliated with those chains in any way. Virtually all of the other cheaper "Atlantic Beach Resort - A Ramada by Wyndham" listings are the Phase 3 buildings in the mosquito woods with no balconies and far from the beach.

2024 is our 3rd season on Vacation Rental By Owner for this property but multiple reviews on airb&b for my exact same property over the past 10 summers. We only rent out one week per year so there will never be a ton of reviews. Building 18, top floor.

Feel complimentary to contact me with any questions!

Crystal Coast rental home tips and tricks:

Cost saving strategies:

• The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Atlantic Beach. Reserve your Crystal Coast rental in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Crystal Coast area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

How to choose the best vacation home:

• Begin by choosing vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. 2 Bedroom Ocean Resort Condo Peppertree Renovated sleeps 6 in 4 beds has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Crystal Coast rentals search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the host before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your trip.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Some things to know before you go:

• Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few concerns.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would back home.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. text the rental manager immediately to document any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
