WELCOME TO BEACH BOX - a FULLY renovated BEACHFRONT oasis with a charming piece of BHI history. This classic Carolina cottage is positioned along the dune line with striking Ocean and Sunset views with direct beach access steps away from the front door.

The ocean takes center stage the moment you walk through the front door and follows you from room to room. Four spacious bedroom sleep 9 in beds. The luxury bedding and new marble and sea inspired tile baths will make you feel you are in a five-star luxury spa. The open floor plan all leads to the expansive oceanside covered screen porch and another open-air deck for dining outdoors or to take in the sun and sea - there is ample room for reading, relaxing, cocktail hours or just gazing at the rolling surf from all new comfortable porch furniture. This is sure to become the favorite spot for early morning coffee, and for watching breathtaking sunsets with a toast to the day enjoyed, rain or shine. You will enjoy running back and forth to the beach whenever the moment strikes. It will be hard to decide to lunch or enjoy cocktail hour on the deck overlooking the water or right on the beach.

This small but mighty gourmet kitchen is fully stocked - just bring your food - you will find the chef in you group will be inspired to create great meals. A center island with beautiful quartz countertops for meal prep and entertaining, high end stainless-steel appliances, and a dining table for 10 sets the scene for great entertaining and family memories. There is additional dining available on the screen porch on the new teak dining table and chairs. The living area boasts comfortable seating that will deliver you immediately to "BHI Turtle Time".

It's all about the outdoor living on Bald Head Island. Here at Beach Box, you can lounge in the hammock on the extensive screened porch or retire to the sun deck for some of the most stunning South Beach sunsets you've ever seen. Covered decking and a sandy play space occupy the ground level, where you can take a break from the sun and play a game of ping pong. and plan your day with the surf boards, paddleboards, bikes and all beach gear you need. Please note that while we guarantee the availability and condition of the golf carts, we cannot guarantee the condition of the bikes.

Families, friend, and travelers can relax here in comfort and style in this ideally located island home a short block away from the BHI Club. There are two golf carts – both four seats- for your use in exploring this beautiful island in real style.

Great little place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beach Box was the cutest little house and the location was PERFECT - right on the beach but also close to BHI, the market, and shops. Two things to look out for: there is no full-length mirror, so if you have teen girls (like we do) that could be a problem, and the kitchen cabinets were challenging to open and close...

Bald Head revisited after 23 yrs!

My husband I had not been to BHI in 23yrs. Much had changed but the charm of the island is still there! The house location was perfect-right next to a beach access and close to the BHI club and market area. Our teenage and adult children all loved it as well. We played golf 4 days and the course is beautiful. We combined eating out and making some meals at the house. Tyler, the property manager, was very responsive to any questions or needs we had.

Awesome house on BHI

My wife and I have been visiting BHI for over 10 years and got married on the island. This was our first stay at Beach Box and it's one of our favorites. Location is ideal and the ocean view is one of the best on the island. Great for couples/friends or two families with kids. Will 100% book again.

Great Stay, Great Location

We enjoyed the house for our BHI stay and it made our trip comfortable and enjoyable. We would return again. Location is great for easy beach access and a short cart ride to market. Coastal view from the Patio/Porch/Master bedroom was awesome. We especially enjoyed that the master bedroom mattress was super comfortable and the sheets were very soft. Island-side rental staff were responsive, helpful and clear to communicate with. Easy and friendly to work with.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE WITH AN INCREDIBLE VIEW!

Beach Box was the perfect home for our group, and we will definitely be returning for our next trip! Extremely clean, perfectly designed, and we could sit on the porch taking in that view all day long! The pictures don't do it justice! Being able to quickly walk on and off the beach was amazing. The property manager, Barbara, was wonderful and replied instantly to all of our questions. We couldn't have asked for a better BHI experience and look forward to our next trip!
