Be among the first to appreciate this elegant eight-bedroom oceanfront home, freshly finished in 2023. Kings Kraken is the ideal hideaway for your family and up to two dogs! Located between the Eastern Channel of the Intracoastal Waterway and the beach, the vistas will have you flitting from room to room to catch a glimpse from each window.

Walking in, you'll first notice the calming blue wall color contrasts gorgeously with bamboo floors. Wander down the hall to find five total bedrooms on this floor. To the right, you'll come across two rooms with a separate bathroom between them: there is a twin-over-king bunk bed with a trundle in one and a king bed in the other.

A bedroom containing two twin-over-twin bunk beds, one with a trundle, is the only bedroom without balcony access. This bedroom shares a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with another bedroom that features a queen bed. Another bedroom with a king-sized bed features an en-suite bathroom on this floor.

Open the outside door and find a partially covered deck with a private pool. You can watch the ocean waves while swimming laps! This home also has an outdoor shower to rinse your sandy feet before walking onto the deck and a picnic table is available for family meals appreciated with a sea breeze. You'll also savor the game room, complete with a pool table, dart board and corn hole.

Up the stairs, you'll find the open-concept living space, a great place to enjoy time together as a family. Kings Kraken's well-equipped kitchen provides two fridges in case you came equally well-prepared with ingredients! It also has elegant lighting fixtures and a beautiful tile backsplash. The sizable dining table seats ten, with four additional chairs at the kitchen island.

The living room has plenty of comfortable seating where guests can mingle and play board games, with a big T.V. to stream your favorite shows. Walk out the door to the oceanfront balcony, where you can sit in the rockers and watch the waves lap against the shore or eat at the patio table with the sound of ocean waves in the background.

The primary bedroom adjacent to the living room has a king bed, windows up to the ceiling and a sliding farm door to the en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. Down the hall, the other two bedrooms also have king beds, with balcony access overlooking the Eastern Channel. There is a separate bathroom between these rooms.

A very kid-friendly property, Kings Kraken's amenities include a high chair, infant gate and Pack 'n' Play travel crib. There are also kid-proof alarms near the pool to provide added safety for your little ones. The rental comes with an elevator and step-complimentary access bathrooms for those with limited mobility. There is keyless entry and wireless internet access, plus a TV in every bedroom. There is also a washer and dryer, so you're not bringing those sandy towels home! A level 2 EV charger with a dual adaptor is even included and is compatible with all electric cars.

Walk closer to the sand with ease using a personal pathway that leads over the dunes in front of the home. From there, it's a short jaunt across the public beach access area to the pristine beach of The Point. This property is located under half a mile from the Point, a fashionable spectacular spot on the island, which is only an eight-min. walk. A mile away is Lonerider Brewpub, a local favorite and a great spot to sip a craft beer while watching boats drift by on the waterway.

Cape Fear area rental home tips and tricks:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Cape Fear area area. To get the best value, consider changing your family's Cape Fear area vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional 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.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitors guide magazines that include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking a perfect Cape Fear area rental home:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Kings Kraken: Beautiful Home with Direct Beach Access and Views of Waterway has 8 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally available online. If not, email the host before you reserve your home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your family.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Have a great stay:

• Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Make a record of any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. 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.
• Did you have a excellent stay? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
