OCEAN FRONT, LARGE POOL, MID-ISLAND, FIVE BEDROOMS AND BATHS, 2500 SQ. FT.

This is the East Side of a huge oceanfront duplex, each side boasting 2500 square feet of very livable space -5 bedrooms, 5 baths, two large living areas, spacious kitchen and dining, huge front porch, and an extra large private pool that is shared only by the two sides of the duplex. For 2022 rentals, the kitchen has new cabinets and back splash, a new glass-top electric stove and a new French door refrigerator. All bathrooms have new LVT flooring, new and higher vanities, new and higher toilets, and new showers, tubs and faucets. The pool has been completely redone with a new bottom, new tiles, and a new surround. There is a new gas grill.

NOTE ONE: FROM THE FIRST SATURDAY IN JUNE THROUGH THE THIRD WEEK OF AUGUST, WE ACCEPT ONLY WEEKLY BOOKINGS THAT RUN SATURDAY TO SATURDAY.

Enjoy an unimpeded vista of the Atlantic Ocean's blues and greens from the many windows and porches of this oceanfront house in beautiful Ocean Isle Beach.

This lovely home affords large comfortable rooms in its 2500 square feet. Plenty of space for people to gather for fun and fellowship, yet five bedrooms and five baths offer space for privacy as well. Upon arrival, you'll find the beds made with comfy linens and fluffy towels provided (see Note Two). A well-appointed kitchen is stocked with everything needed to cook delicious meals. (Want to grill? Underneath the house, you will find both a charcoal grill and a gas grill.) A commercial ice maker provides all the ice you'll need. The large dining table seats ten, and the counter stools add seating for six more. The spacious living area feels even larger with nine-foot ceilings. Need another large space? The second floor sunroom affords ample seating and another TV and, best of all, a wide and unimpeded view of the ocean. The views from the large front porch and second-floor deck are gorgeous.

Start off your day sipping coffee while swaying back and forth in the gazebo swing. The oranges and reds of sunrise spell the beginning of a fun and colorful beach day! Whip up a yummy breakfast, then walk down the boardwalk of this mid-island house right onto the soft sands of the widest section of the island's beach.

Sunbathe and read, frolic in the tidal pools, body surf or ride the waves on boogie boards. Walk the beach and collect shells for miles in either direction. Want to check on what fisherman are catching? Drop by the pier which is just a five-minute stroll away. Interested in putt-putt, ice-cream, beach shops, restaurants, the coastal museum, or a brand new park? They are all within an easy ten-minute walk from this prime island location.

Ready for a dip in fresh water? This house offers one of the largest pools on the island with comfortable lounging chairs surrounding it. Need a beverage? A second refrigerator located in the storage room just outside the pool gate provides ample room for food and drink without having to walk up any stairs!

Jump in your car and be off the island in five minutes for grocery shopping at Lowe's or Publix or just down the road a bit to Food Lion. Pick up fresh seafood and local produce to cook at the house. Nearby restaurants offer wonderful and tasty variety on those nights you don't want to cook.

Feeling the need to hit a little while ball? Numerous quality golf courses are within a fifteen-minute drive. Visit Myrtle Beach or Wilmington, each only 40 minutes away.

As afternoon flows into evening, and air turns mauve in color, hit the beach to experience the magnificent turquoises and purples and fuchsias of sunset. Sit in your beach chair and enjoy the quiet of day's end on the beach. After dinner, go out on the upper deck or boardwalk or back on the beach to marvel at the evening sky with the moon's shine and diamond blinks of thousands of stars.

TVs and puzzles and games provide night time entertainment. (On Friday nights in the summer, stroll to the park beside the museum for a free concert featuring live bands and an area for dancing.) Sit on the porch and rock to the rhythm of the ocean waves, relax into the softness of the ocean breeze. Reflect on the end of another perfect Ocean Isle Beach day!

Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a private pool and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Enjoy the recreation opportunities such as an outdoor pool or make use of other amenities including charcoal grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Exceeded all expectations!!
Extended family (mother, sister, in laws, cousins) joined us for a last minute beach trip en route to Savannah to drop off our youngest for college. We liked this property for its flexible bedroom configuration, on site pool, and proximity to the beach but were *wowed* by the many creature comforts and nice touches, like the extra large dining table and bar seating, fully stocked kitchen, stand alone ice maker, beautiful yet cozy decor not to mention all en suite bathrooms that looked brand new. All agreed what was meant to be a one-off may be our new go to!

Wonderful family vacation
This was our second time staying at this property. The location is great, the house has plenty of room, the beach is steps away, and the large porch is a perfect place to hang out. Cassandra, the owner, is easily available through email and answers any questions quickly. It was a joy to be with our children and grandchildren at the beach and this house suited us perfectly.

Family Vacation 2024
Although the weather didn’t cooperate this year due to tropical storm Debbie, we had a great time together. This is our 2nd time visiting OI, and staying at this property. It was a perfect location on the beach and the pool was a lifesaver. We had plenty of room for the 12 of us. Newly updated it was even nicer than it was 3 years ago. The owner kept in contact with us during the storm to be sure everything was ok.

Great house,friendly owner and Mark the Vrbo manager was very prompt when called. The kids loved the pool and the beach not being as crowded as Myrtle. There are a lot of stairs,so unpacking and loading is a lot. Loved the huge rear porch with all the rockers.The view was beautiful.❤️

Family Vacation
Very spacious, well equipped and clean home. Modern kitchen to cook in, with all the essentials. Loved the deck full of rockers, the gazebo with swing overlooking the ocean and the short path to the beach. The pool was the icing on the cake for those days or times when you need a break from the sand. We did beach in the mornings, came in for lunch and then pool time in the afternoons. Worked great to keep 2 young boys occupied. Location of the house is great and the house is decorated beautiful. Wanted to give my parents a vacation with both of their children and all the grandkids. It could not have worked out better. The owners are super easy to communicate with and the property manager was easily accessible. Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic house with everything you need
This was a 4th time staying at Aurora and we had a wonderful time, as we always do. The house is perfectly located, extremely well-maintained, and perfect for our family. The recent renovations are very nice and make the house even more special. We love the convenience of walking to "downtown" Ocean Isle Beach, the private beach access, and the pool. We also appreciate that every bedroom has its own bathroom. We are already making plans to stay at Aurora for our next OIB trip!

Blessed family gathering
This was our families fourth year to return to this beach house. The house was clean and very accommodating for the 13 of us( 5 being children under 10. Our favorite gathering place is the porch. What a great view of the beach. We spent hours in the pool. We love that it’s within walking distance to everything. Once again it was a wonderful memorable vacation.

Perfection!
I hate to give this VRBO such a rave review because it may be too popular for us to book next time! Aurora was perfect for our family. It was exceptionally well stocked with dishes and cooking utensils, pool loungers and beach chairs. The location was within walking distance of everything. We had a few issues with the unit that could not have been anticipated or avoided, and Cassandra promptly did everything she could to remedy the situations. She was also always available for questions. Everything you could possibly want or need to make your vacation perfect had been thought of and provided. We won't look anywhere else the next time we visit OIB.

Family at the beach
The property and house were perfect. Lovely well-kept home, very clean, with beach decor and places to be together or separate. We were always on the back porch, at the beach or pool, or sitting in the swing closer to the beach. So happy we chose this property. We could hear and see the ocean waves which is what I wanted. Ocean Isle Beach is less busy and not as touristy as nearby areas. I would highly recommend this property and will be back to the same place if possible in the future.

It was exactly what we needed for our group of all-ages! There was plenty of space for everyone to do what they enjoyed from playing cards on the cool rainy morning, playing in the pool in the rain why the adults watched from the covered porch, an easy walk to Sunset Slush - a huge hit for all. The house as a whole was stocked well; but, the kitchen had everything you could possibly need (except a Keurig, hint, hint). We will be reaching out to rent it again next year!
