Come enjoy our "one and a half bedroom" condo haven by the sea! Well-appointed kitchen and 1.5 baths. Very comfortable queen-size bed, plus a sleeper sofa and two twin size beds for additional sleeping space. While it can accommodate up to six people, the condo is approximately 500 sq ft and may be a bit tight for six adults. A maximum of four adults is recommended. Any combination of four or fewer adults with children up to six total people is also OK for this space. Bed linens and bath towels are provided for your convenience.

We ask guests pick up after themselves and straighten up prior to departure. The cleaning fee is for deep cleaning, sanitizing, and laundering the linens between guests to make the unit as safe as possible for every stay.

Notes:
We welcome nice, responsible humans of all races, ethnicities, origins, genders, orientations, and religions!

This home is in Eastern North Carolina, near the water. While we have regular pest control visits, you may still encounter a bug or two. The home is professionally cleaned between every guest and bugs just sometimes appear in this region.

You will have full access to the condo. Guests are allowed to use the pool (in season) and there is private access to the beach merely steps away from your door. There is also a laundry room on-site (for a fee).

Boats, boat trailers and RVs are not allowed at this complex.

The complex is just over the dunes from the beach. Grab your towel and beach chair and take the short stroll across the yard to the beach. In close proximity to Atlantic Beach Boardwalk, Atlantic Beach Park, Morehead City, Beaufort, and Emerald Isle Beach. NC Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores is just down the road. Short drive to tons of area attractions and only about 40 minutes to historic New Bern.
