HERE’S WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS PROPERTY:

THE LOCATION: Ocean Club is the ideal place for a private escape. Located between Atlantic Beach and Emerald Isle, you'll appreciate the simple life in Indian Beach. Unwind on pristine and peaceful beaches, kayak on the sound, and have some fun at the top-rated mini golf-course right down the road. The best thing is that you're a fast 4-min. drive to Emerald Isle or a 10-min. ride to Atlantic Beach. There is so much to do from this comfy condo, yet it's so simple to slip away.

THE VIEW: It's what sold us on the condo! You'll be greeted by a breath-taking, expansive view from the penthouse condo. It feels like you're right on the beach. Parlor on the sizable, 27-foot balcony and listen to the waves roll-in. Dunes span between E-building condo balconies and the sand, with no walkways or pool area obstructing your view. Dolphins are frequently seen playing in the water.
*Bonus, you can see the sound from the front door and deck, so cool!

THE PROXIMITY!!: E-building has fantastic vistas and super painless access to the beach and pool (see map). With only 2 beach and pool access ramps, E-building is as close to the access points as you can get. This makes rounding-up the kids or coming in for a quick snack easy! The unit is close to the elevator and covered + uncovered parking spaces. Oh, and did we mention there is a private storage closet so you can drop your beach trolley on the bottom floor... no need to lug all those sandy items upstairs!

THE SPACE: Plenty of room for 6-8 guests, no matter the age. The kitchen has been extended 18 inches for more counter and storage space. The third bedroom is also more cavernous than similar units, so everybody will be cozy. Dining area has water-resistant seating with glass table-top, so you can relax. The unit has been colorfully decorated with coastal décor for an all-around good time! Sleeps 6-8.

THE COMPLEX: The Ocean Club has so much to offer! The outdoor pool is heated (except mid Jan - March, dates vary), kiddy pool, hot tubs, exercise room, and direct beach access. We are located on the ocean side, but don’t forget to check out the sound side! Sound side is just across the street and features newly constructed long-pier, enormous decks over the sound, kayak access and storage, another pool and hot tubs, and tons of shady trees and nature.

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Indian Beach rental home:

• In the Morehead City area, The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• To get the best value, consider changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Morehead City area travel guides which will include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Morehead City area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to pick the best rental in the Morehead City area:

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. ONCE UPON A TIDE: Top Floor, Oceanfront, Prime Location, Pool, Linens included has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the host before you book the home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what is optimal for your group.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or applied to your contract.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More tips for your visit:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many concerns.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make sure no damages are attributed to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the rental manager right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
