About this property

Amazing Oceanfront Home

Enjoy a OCEANFRONT duplex with amazing 270 degree south-facing views for all day sun on the beach! This family-friendly and immaculate home boasts an open main level with living/dining space, a renovated kitchen, and main level queen bedroom. This versatile floor plan includes a 2nd floor with master suite with oceanfront views and two additional well-appointed bedrooms. The kitchen features granite countertops, tile backsplash, newer appliances, and is well stocked with every gadget and utensil needed to prepare large meals or accommodate take-out from the many restaurants on the island.

Sit on the covered deck and watch the sun rise and set over the sparkling water. The house is positioned closer to the dunes and ocean than the neighboring houses for unobstructed views up and down the island. Watch the kids play on the beach from the deck or the many ocean-view windows in the house.

Enjoy an evening walk on the beach to multiple restaurants on the island serving fresh seafood, steaks and refreshing island drinks. Have dessert at the local ice cream shop before heading back for a relaxing night listing to the ocean surf.

Holden Beach is a quiet, family-friendly beach recognized as a top beach by USA Today and a top-10 beach by National Geographic Traveler’s Magazine. There are no hotels or high-rise complexes, just family owned cottages. Holden Beach is part of the barrier island chain in southeastern NC and is also located approximately 35 miles from Wilmington, NC and Myrtle Beach, SC -- making trips for shopping, eating and entertaining very convenient. Holden Beach is also well-situated for 30 area golf courses.

We love our “home away from home,” and our family has spent many years enjoying all that Holden has to offer. We would love for you to choose to spend your vacation time at our property. Renting directly from the owner may be new to you (through VRBO), but we enjoy helping our renters plan the perfect vacation and that will exceed your expectations.

ALREADY BOOKED? If this listing is already booked during your preferred stay, please visit our other listing on VRBO (#404106) to check for additional availability.

Rent BOTH SIDES of the duplex for 8 bedrooms and 6 baths that can accommodate large families while offering the privacy of separate spaces. Email us to inquire about renting both sides.

Our stay at Holden Beach was great. The beach house was amazing, modern and clean and really was perfect for our family. The location was close to several restaurants and other amenities such as grocery stores and gas stations. The weather didn’t exactly cooperate with our stay. It was extremely windy for several days straight but that’s just one of those things you gamble on. Overall, I would comeback again. I would say that there’s not really a lot to do here other than the beach especially if you’ve got children that get bored easily or the beach atmosphere is not there cup of tea. Something to consider.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Teresa. We’re sorry your arrival wasn’t the experience we strive to provide. We especially regret that you felt the home wasn’t cleaned to your expectations. We do wish you had let us know about the cleanliness concerns during your stay, as we would have immediately sent our cleaning team back to address them. When you notified us about seeing roaches, we promptly dispatched our pest control service to inspect and treat the property. We appreciate your feedback and have shared your comments with our cleaning team so they can continue to meet our high standards. We hope you’ll consider staying with us again so we have the opportunity to provide you with a much better experience.

We 5 retired women have stayed at a different property at Holden Beach the past three years, but began to notice the house wasn’t as cared for anymore. Boy, what an upgrade! This new house was beautiful and so clean. The kitchen was well equipped, making it easier to prepare meals. Our view from the living area and porch was beautiful regardless of the time of day. My only complaint was not being acknowledged by the hosts from a couple of texts I sent. I possibly did not use the correct link, in which case that’s on me. We girls are definitely ready to book this house again for next year!

We loved our stay. The location is awesome and the beach was perfect. The condo had all we needed for a wonderful family vacation. They had baby gates for the stairs and a booster seat as well, which was helpful for families with toddlers.

Beautiful property!

We enjoyed a long weekend at the end of the summer with our family of 5 and our best friends from college with their two young children. The property was a great fit for our needs with enough bedrooms and bathrooms, and right on the beach, making it so easy to enjoy lots of time playing in the water and sand. We wouldn’t change a thing about this property and are so grateful to have been able to stay here for a wonderful time.
