--- ABOUT THE SPACE ---

Welcome to Seaborne - our luxury 4 bedroom/4 bath home, 900 feet from the Atlantic on North Carolina’s Crystal Coast! We have tried to think of every detail to make your stay as calming, joyful, and memorable as humanly possible! From our beautiful gourmet kitchen with its high-end appliances to our brand-new backyard getaway, we have sought at every turn to make your stay something special.

“The backyard was an getaway, ideal for unwinding after a day at the beach. The proximity to the beach was very convenient for us. Having access to a golf cart as well was the cherry on top.” – Carly K.

PLEASE NOTE: Your booking is not final until the signed rental agreement has been returned. The pool is only heated from April through October. More details are noted below.

MAIN FLOORING LIVING AREA ---

As you enter the light-filled main floor, you’re greeted with a phenomenal open floor plan. The designer Living Room, embellished in coastal pastels and with an intimate gas fireplace, opens to a gourmet Kitchen and a formal Dining Room that hits all the right ‘Beach Retreat’ notes with its driftwood décor.

Off the Living Room, there’s a gracious front porch, a great place for a coffee after some early morning surfing!

The Dining Room leads out to a comfortable deck that overlooks the new 14’x30’ heated, saltwater Pool and sizable Outdoor Spa. The Living Room itself extends to a phenomenal Kitchen with a giant walk-in Pantry/Laundry combo and the ideal Coffee Station/Cocktail Bar! The Pantry is completely outfitted with every known kitchen appliance, plus all the pet perks your dog could want.

The Kitchen itself features Kitchen Aid and Fisher Paykel, along with a chic gas range, a wine refrigerator and more, so every meal here, big or modest, will feel like gourmet magazine come to life!

The Bar, whether for coffees or drinks, is ideally supplied with plenty of bar tools, glasses and all the ways to brew the ideal cup of 4 J’s (our local favorite) coffee! And, there’s split zone surround sound in the living, dining and kitchen areas to ensure a great ambiance whether you’re entertaining or just chillin’ with a margarita and some classic beach tunes.

“Cooking in the kitchen with my wife was fun since you had plenty of space to prep. From an instant pot, crock pot and great coffee machine, the kitchen made life painless.” – William S.

The Carport has its own freshly added Half Bath and huge Outdoor Shower, so it’s simple to come in off the beach or step out of the pool without having to head upstairs. There’s also plenty of gear, from beach chairs to soft top surfboards, so you can load up the golf cart with your group to catch some waves or just sink your toes into the sand!

Seaborne definitely has something for everybody, especially bicycles - the locals’ favorite means of transportation, so you too can appreciate all the bicycle paths that start just off our cul-de-sac and ride to town or take in a sunset. If you’re the stay-at-home type, there’s a big hammock in the backyard with your name on it!

The spot where you can really make some striking memories though is the magnificent screened-in Outdoor Kitchen off the Carport. There’s a dining table for 8, the ideal lounge-y sectional with its own 58” intelligent ROKU TV, and an countless stainless-steel counter with a prep sink and an accompanying giant freezer chest for cold drinks - or - your catch of the day!

Off the Outdoor Kitchen, there’s a Wilmington Grille, along with a firepit seating area for those nights where nothing will do but some s'mores and stories!

Tips to get the best Havelock rental home experience:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Havelock area. To book the best vacation home within your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Havelock attractions.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many management companies supply Havelock area visitor guide magazines which often include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the perfect rental:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and choose a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. LUXE Oceanside Home
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking websites. If not, email or call the property management company before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is suitable for your group.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.
• If there's an individual Havelock attraction you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, note any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the host immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic resource to find the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a great time? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
