About this property

Oceanfront Top Floor Condo With Pool- Riggings E3

Beautifully furnished top floor, end unit overlooking the ocean and pool. Watch the dolphins swim by from your private balcony. Just steps away from the beach. 2 miles to Kure Beach pier, 2 miles to NC aquarium, 5 miles to Carolina Beach Boardwalk. This unit has one bedroom with a KING bed and two twin bunk beds in the hallway. Full kitchen with microwave, dishwasher, Keurig machine (please bring K cups), toaster and all utensils, dishes and glasses. Unit has WiFi, Netflix and cable TV. TVs in living room and bedroom. Washer/dryer. Absolutely no need to bring anything. We are stocked like a hotel with all sheets and linens cleaned for you and ready before you arrive. We also are fully stocked with toilet paper, paper towels and laundry detergent.

This condo is located all the way at the end of the beach strand by Fort Fisher. What that means is the beach is never packed. At times, you will feel like you are on your own private beach. If you prefer crowds, go one mile South to Fort Fisher Beach area or two miles North by the pier. Surf fishing is superb directly in front of the condo because of a large rock formation off of Fort Fisher. Just to the North a couple hundred feet, you will find one of North Carolina’s very few coquina rock outcroppings. The kids will be entertained for hours playing on the rocks.

**We highly suggest you purchase travel insurance for stays during the months of June through October, however the most active months for hurricanes are September and October. Refunds will not be offered for poor weather unless the property is uninhabitable**

**We ask that you please bring your own beach gear due to the lack of storage in the unit and gear continually disappearing**

**Pool typically opens late April and closes mid September. Closure of pool relates to weather and can change.**

**In the Spring and Summer, the beach is typically very plentiful. In the Fall and Winter, we can get what are called “King Tides”. These are extremely high tides due to the moons position with the earth. They happen monthly for about 5-6 days. Combine that with strong NE winds and you will have very high tides which can cause lots of sand to be removed from the beach, exposing sandbags that are mostly covered in Summer. There is still room to walk the beach heading north from condo. The beach replenishes itself VERY fast afterwards, so conditions can change in a matter of days**

** We have a security camera at the front door and on the balcony to monitor potential threatening storms. The camera faces above the railing at the ocean (not on your chairs) and audio is turned off. You are welcome to put something over it if you like. Just please remove when leaving and try not to move camera.**

**Absolutely NO pets allowed per HOA rules and regulations.**

**We do not accept alteration requests inside the cancellation policy window.**

Beautiful views and condo!

My daughter and I stayed here for a short vacation. We stayed 4 nights. James, property manager, was wonderful. He was very responsive to any questions. We were even offered to stay an extra night since it wasn't booked and he gave us a discount on that day. The condo was exactly what they advertised. Very clean, fully loaded kitchen, and right on the ocean. We could not have asked for better views. This was the first time we went to this beach and we will definitely book this condo again next year. The beach was beautiful and the sand was very soft. We went in May (before Memorial Day) and it was very peaceful and relaxing. This unit is on the 3rd floor and there is no elevator. I highly recommend renting this unit out. You will not be disappointed.

Beautiful place!

Property has one of the most beautiful views of the ocean! Bed was super comfortable. Had everything we needed. If I had one wish, it would have been for the tub/shower to have been updated. We’re tall and it was a bit of a tight fit. Super nice host and was very accommodating!

Perfectly Peaceful! Everything you need...

Lovely home. Super clean (germ freak here so that's really important). Highest communication EVER with any owner/property manager on VRBO. Most well-stocked home with kitchen supplies, towels, hand soap, and paper goods.Ultra comfy King bed and pillows. Perfectly peaceful getaway! So quiet and right on the ocean. And ya'll, the beach in NC? Even the predicted rain days turned out to be sunny and 64. It was so warm in the sun that I actually got sunburnt! Would highly recommend and we'll definitely be back.

Relaxing get away.

The interior of the rental was excellent but the overall exterior of the property doesn’t do the unit owner any favors, as it is run down. Had we seen pictures of the beach area with the sandbags needed to prevent further erosion we might not have booked the property. Still, we enjoyed our stay and grew fond of the local establishments. It was a great 2 weeks.

Great stay

Came a few days before meeting my hubby in Myrtle Beach. Felt very safe being by myself. Owner was great. Left me in early after condo cleaned. Thanks. 2 things 1. Make sure renters know that there is no elevator( I knew on 3 rd floor) but thought would be elevator. 32 steps for an old lady was a little hard. Was not a big deal to me but baseboard and bathroom door needs painted. I would stay again. Thanks for a nice visit!

Spring Break 2024

My husband and I brought our youngest daughter to Kure Beach for her senior year spring break. The goal was to have quality time with her before she graduates and heads to college. She wanted a beach vacation and we wanted to avoid the typical spring break vibe and chaos of other destinations. We also wanted to rest and recharge. Kure Beach ended up being a great choice and the accommodations made our stay better than we could have imagined. The condo was bright, clean and quiet. When we weren't on the beach or exploring the area, we were enjoying coffee and meals on the balcony. Access to the beach was easy and close. Also access to the ferry and historical sites was very convenient. The condo had everything we needed to make it our home away from home during our stay. The beds and furniture were comfortable and clean. Also, having laundry facilities on site was very convenient. We wouldn't change anything about our stay or accommodations. Kure Beach is definitely a place we see ourselves revisiting. Thank you!

The condo was beautiful, including the “beachy” decor, and so clean, with everything you need to make it your very relaxing home away from home. Walking through the front door and seeing the ocean was amazing. The location was fantastic, just steps away from the pool and beach, as well as a Civil War fort (Fort Fisher). We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Perfect stay for the two of us - condo was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The bed was super comfortable and we absolutely loved coffee overlooking the ocean each morning. Beach was just steps away and we especially loved the recommendations James sent prior to our visit - we took advantage of several of the restaurants. Overall a perfect vacation!

About the host

Hosted by James Blydenburgh

Host profile image
Hello, I am James. After running a business in Raleigh NC for 20 years, I decided to sell my business and become a full time host. This was my second home at Kure Beach for many years and I just loved providing vacation rentals for my wonderful guests. I have since expanded my business and own three condos in Kure Beach, one condo in Carolina Beach, one cottage at Badin Lake and one home in West Jefferson in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I strive to provide rentals that are above and beyond what people expect to have in a rental and wouldn't rent anything to our guests that I wouldn't enjoy staying in myself.

Why they chose this property

We are fully stocked with all the necessities, allowing you to just bring clothes and toiletries. This property sits at the end of the island, so the beach is very quiet. If you are looking for a relaxing beach, this is it! If you want to see a crowd, drive a couple miles up the road to Kure Beach public access and you will have it. We are right next to Fort Fisher, where you have lots of walking trails, sidewalks with amazing views of either the ocean or the Cape Fear River. Kure Beach pier is just a 3 minute drive or a long walk down the beach. Carolina Beach is about a 10 minute drive and there you can access the boardwalk with all the shops, restaurants, carnival and fireworks every Thursday night in the summer. What can be better?!
