HERE’S WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS PROPERTY:

THE LOCATION: Ocean Club is the ideal place for a private escape. Located between Atlantic Beach and Emerald Isle, you'll appreciate the simple life in Indian Beach. Unwind on pristine and peaceful beaches, kayak on the sound, and have some fun at the top-rated mini golf-course right down the road. The best thing is that you're a fast 4-min. drive to Emerald Isle or a 10-min. ride to Atlantic Beach. There is so much to do from this comfy condo, yet it's so painless to slip away.

THE VIEW: It's what sold us on the condo! You'll be greeted by a breath-taking, expansive view from the penthouse condo. It feels like you're right on the beach. Parlor on the huge, 27-foot balcony and listen to the waves roll-in. Dunes span between E-building condo balconies and the sand, with no walkways or pool area obstructing your view. Dolphins are frequently seen playing in the water.
*Bonus, you can see the sound from the front door and deck, so cool!

THE PROXIMITY!!: E-building has fantastic vistas and super simple access to the beach and pool (see map). With only 2 beach and pool access ramps, E-building is as close to the access points as you can get. This makes rounding-up the kids or coming in for a quick snack easy! The unit is close to the elevator and covered + uncovered parking spaces. Oh, and did we mention there is a private storage closet so you can drop your beach trolley on the bottom floor... no need to lug all those sandy items upstairs!

THE SPACE: Plenty of room for 6-8 guests, no matter the age. The kitchen has been extended 18 inches for more counter and storage space. The third bedroom is also more cavernous than similar units, so everybody will be cozy. Dining area has water-resistant seating with glass table-top, so you can relax. The unit has been colorfully decorated with coastal décor for an all-around good time! Sleeps 6-8.

THE COMPLEX: The Ocean Club has so much to offer! The outdoor pool is heated (except mid Jan - March, dates vary), kiddy pool, hot tubs, exercise room, and direct beach access. We are located on the ocean side, but don’t forget to check out the sound side! Sound side is just across the street and features freshly constructed long-pier, sizable decks over the sound, kayak access and storage, another pool and hot tubs, and tons of shady trees and nature. Check out the posted information on coastline revitalization.

Our top Crystal Coast vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• To get the most suitable rental within your budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many property management companies supply Crystal Coast area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Crystal Coast visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose your vacation dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. ONCE UPON A TIDE: Top Floor, Oceanfront, Prime Location, Pool, Linens included has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Crystal Coast rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property owner before reserving the rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• Does your family require particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Upon check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to drive future reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
