About this property

Steps to the beach! 3BR/2.5BA Oceanfront condo complex

The perfect place for your vacation! Very well maintained 3 bedroom 2 1/2 bathroom condo with views of the pool. The unit is conveniently located steps from the elevator and steps to the beach. Sit in privacy on the secluded screened in porch surrounded by the ocean dunes covered by maritime forest and listen to the waves as you enjoy your morning cup of coffee or a cold beverage in the evening! The master bedroom has a king size bed, the second a queen size and the third a pyramid bunk bed (full on bottom and twin on top) with a twin trundle for extra sleeping room. There is also a pack n play available for our smallest visitors. Each bedroom and the den have flat screen TVs. The unit comes equipped with keyless entry so you have no worries of keeping up with a key on the beach.

The complex has 3 outdoor pools (one junior Olympic) and kiddie pools at each location with plenty of lounge chairs. Grills can be found at each building to cook your perfect steak. Each beach access (there are 2) have a covered pavilion at the end with benches to enjoy the ocean view. There is a sound side pier to fish or crab or to launch your kayak or paddle board. For the athlete, there are 6 tennis courts and areas to walk or run along W Fort Macon Rd.

The oceanfront complex is conveniently located in Atlantic Beach within walking distance to restaurants, ice cream, shopping and even a craft beer growler store.

Great condo, great location

The condo was clean, bright, and spacious. We had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, kitchen well equipped, and there was plenty of hot water in the the bathrooms. The parking area was convenient and easy to use. The best part, of course, was the proximity to the beach. The wooden walkway to the private beach access is just a few steps away and leads to an uncrowded, beautiful beach. Mr. Sheppard is a great host and very easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this rental to anyone going to the Atlantic Beach area.

Beautiful, friendly people on site & neighbor’s. Green turtles hatched and we seen it. Amazing!!

The gate access to beach was stuck and difficult to use the whole time. Frustrating. Kids room sink water wouldn’t go down. Killed a cockroach. NC Aquarium excellent, and Ferry shuttle to Shackford Island, wild horses, and light house was great. Fort Macon tour and Maritime museum great. Overall amazing time. How does the deposit refund come ? We left it much cleaner than we found it.

Great week away

We have stayed at the NC coast 3 times, and this has been my favorite rental of the 3! Perfect location to the beach and pool, with so many restaurant and entertainment options close by (DQ is across the street!). The owners were a breeze to work with, and provided a well stocked kitchen, lots of pool toys and chairs, even laundry soap and dishwashing liquid. My kids loved the window seat and screened in porch! I hope we can come back some day!

Great place for fun in the sun

The condo was exactly as described and perfect for our stay. They were located near the elevator to make access easy. We loved sitting in the screened balcony at night. My son enjoyed sitting on the window seat. It was so quiet. This condo was right next to the beach and pools. Some beach toys and chairs where available to use which was perfect. The owners were very quick to respond to questions. I totally recommend.

Unbeatable Location, Well-Stocked

Jason's place at the IB&RC was great. Being right on the beach, the location can't be beat. Not having to cross the street to access the beach was super beneficial with toddlers and older folks in our party. The kitchen is superbly stocked, and we especially appreciated (and used) the growlers for the beer bar across the street! The pool was unexpectedly temporarily closed during our stay, but that wasn't something Jason could control and we appreciated his communication with management inquiring about its opening. Would definitely recommend!
