SunShine Daydream Sum

Summary:
Are you ready for a relaxing stay inside an adorable beachside space? The 3rd floor condo boasts views from the rear balcony that are unmatched, as you can see for miles north, south & across the Atlantic Ocean. Beach access could not be closer to your front door! You'll enjoy a community swimming pool & recreation center just across the road. A large back porch is plenty of room for a chill evening outside while you listen to wave breaks just feet away!

The Space:
As soon as you enter the space, a magnificent view of the Atlantic ocean and beach greets you through the large balcony doors. On your left you can hang up your keys and purse and get ready to relax. A few feet down the hall you'll find a very nice kitchen area with granite counters and elegant wood grain cabinetry. There's all stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher and microwave. The refrigerator is very spacious and will accommodate many family meals and drinks. Across from the refrigerator you'll find a washer dryer for your laundry convenience. The kitchen also has a bar area that connects to the dining & living spaces. The bar seats three on plush stools.

In the dining area you'll find a large four seater, round glass top table with ultra comfortable chairs. Just past the table is a stunning window with a seat and cushion that begs for a book and an ice cold drink. This window boasts an awesome view down the shoreline. Also in the living room is a cozy couch that pulls out to a queen bed! You'll enjoy relaxing with your feet up on the coffee table watching some TV or chatting with friends and family; all while enjoying a bodacious view through the panel glass doors. There's an overhead light and fan to keep you cool!

Across from the kitchen in the hallway you'll find a cute bar area with an additional sink and utensils for making your favorite beachy cocktails. You're going to love the Master bedroom with an easy sleeping queen sized bed and fresh linens! You can access the charming balcony through the glass doors in the master bedroom. Also in the master bedroom is a desk for your laptop or other devices as well as overhead lighting and fan. The closet has plenty of room for everything you bring and is next to the private master bathroom.

Between the bedrooms and in the hall you'll find another bathroom with updated faucets and hardware. Down the hall is the guest bedroom that features two twin beds for the kiddos or other guests! Again, plenty of closet space for your swimwear, and evening attire.

Your home for a few days has a comfortable beach theme consistent throughout the space, gorgeous views, as well as a great kitchen, and relaxing areas. There's a state of the art water filtration system connected to the kitchen faucet, and a great Beach Shade in the foyer closet for you to use!

We have a reverse osmosis system which purifies the water in the kitchen sink (this is accessed by using the far left skinny faucet) as well as the ice and water dispensers on the fridge. Therefore no bottled water is needed!

Guest Access:
Access is easy-breezy - NO KEYS TO LOSE! You will have your own unique access code good for the duration of your stay. No worries about going extra places to get keys or having to make beds on your own. Simply show up for your vacation, instant access, beds made - time to RELAX!

The HOA opens the outdoor pools mid April and closes typically the second week in September, depending on weather. There is a year round indoor pool as well.

Getting Around:
This a 3rd floor unit

There is no elevator

Other Things to Note:
Kure beach pier and downtown are a quick drive away!
Fort Fisher Civil War Historic Site and the NC State Aquarium are a very short drive.
The famous Carolina Beach boardwalk is just a few miles to the north.

*The US North Carolina Battleship, the Downtown Wilmington Riverwalk and nightlife are 25 minutes away!
Amazing restaurants are EVERYWHERE! (we're happy to recommend, just ask).

*Pools are seasonal. Please reach out to us to confirm availability, or you may visit the Ocean Sand Dunes Resort website for more information.

We also supply the following for each property:
A starter kit of one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, one roll of paper towels, a trash bag, and dish soap. We also supply laundered bed linens, comforters, and 1 bathing towel and wash cloth per person. We do not supply any beach gear or beach towel. We have great rental companies on the island we would be more than happy to share the info with you. We also do not supply laundry detergent, body soap or shampoo/conditioner as we find everyone has their own preferences for these =) Please review our house rules prior to your stay

There is a Beach re-nourishment done in Carolina and Kure beach every 3 years. This helps to keep our beaches safe from erosion. Please note that we have no control over this project and that it is normally concluded by May, but there is a possibility of delays.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a coffee maker.
