About this property
Beachfront Community • Private Beach Access • Pool • WiFi • Kitchen
Nestled in a peaceful Oceanfront Community, this charming condo enjoys a convenient, UNBEATABLE LOCATION close to restaurants, shopping, and local attractions.
Step outside to 600 feet of private beach access through two oceanfront gazebos with community seating and stunning ocean views, or unwind by the sparkling pool after a day of coastal adventures!!
For a closer look, watch our YouTube video titled Ocean Sands presented by Sun, Surf & Sand Vacation Rentals.
[THE SPACE]
This 300 sq. ft. studio is best suited for 2 adults and can comfortably accommodate up to 3 adults.
The space can host up to 4 guests only if the group includes 2 adults and 2 small children. 4 adults would be too tight, so please consider the compact size when booking to ensure a comfortable stay.
☞The unit is located on the 2nd Floor on the north side of a Beachfront Complex. The ocean is to the south, while the unit faces the parking area, so there is no ocean view from inside the condo.
☞Guests can enjoy Panoramic Ocean Views from the community gazebos and wraparound decks, which offer shared seating areas .
Traveling with a larger group?
We have multiple units within the same oceanfront complex, including side-by-side units—perfect for larger groups who want to stay close while enjoying extra space and privacy. Please reach out and we’ll be happy to help find the best options for your needs.

About the host
Hosted by Sun, Surf & Sand Vacation Rentals
If you are looking for a Clean and Cozy Beach Getaway, literally 50 yards from your unit to the Crisp Ocean Breezes and the Warm Sand between your toes, then you have found the right place! Come join us for some Sun, Surf & Sand!
Why they chose this property
The property is right on the beach, and the people are friendly. The community offers a pool, 3 BBQ Grills, Outside Dining areas, a Fish Cleaning Station, and a huge area of untouched green grass. It's just the perfect place if you want to stay right on the beach and avoid the hassle of those crowded beaches. Did I mention the Surf Fishing is abundant and there is a little known sand bar just in front of the property which offers the perfect spot to catch that Red Drum. There are tons of fantastic restaurants in the area, the NC Aquarium is just minutes away and with Morehead City and Beaufort so close you will not run out of activities.
What makes this property unique
The Beach is Never-Crowded so it feels like you have it all to yourself. While the unit itself does not have an Ocean View, there are plenty of areas for outside seating that offer Marvelous Ocean Views. Pelicans and Dolphins can often be seen from our Beach Entranceway Gazebos. The Sunsets are out of this world!
