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 sizable, 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 marvelous 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 roomy 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.

Our top Crystal Coast rental booking tips:

When to book & When to go:

• In the Crystal Coast area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Booking your Crystal Coast vacation home in Fall or Spring is a great way to save on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines contain deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to select the best vacation home in the Crystal Coast area:

• Select your vacation dates and budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. ONCE UPON A TIDE: Top Floor, Oceanfront, Prime Location, Pool, Linens included has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you reserve your home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.
• If there's an individual Crystal Coast destination you are enamored with, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

During your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Record any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent reviews to stimulate more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
