Come visit Atlantic Beach for some sun, surf, and sand! Originally the Captain's Bridge Motel in the 1970s, the interior of the studio unit has been modernized and decorated with a cute beachy vibe. The property features PRIVATE GAZEBO ACCESS to a charming, SECLUDED BEACH for the enjoyment of relaxing strolls, shelling, sunbathing, and sunset walks. There is also the coastal bicycle path for exhilarating running, bicycle riding, or walking.

Our guests' safety and comfort are our number one priority and the space is professionally cleaned and thoroughly sanitized before your stay. There is no "shared air" as there is no enclosed lobby and the unit has an individual wall mounted a/c and heating system. This is a SMOKE-COMPLIMENTARY Oceanside Complex. The aerial photo shows how close you will stay to the beach as well as the location of your space within the building.

The original building was run as a motel constructed in the 1970s but it has been refreshed and furnished with a comfortable full size bed, queen size couch sleeper, kitchenette w/ appliances, shower, flat screen TV, and WiFi. You cannot beat this location! This unit faces East towards the neighboring complex. It is a 1st floor end unit that is closest to the ocean and has the convenience of being able to drive up and park right in front of your unit.

Savor your morning coffee or evening glass of wine from our wraparound shared balcony seating area or walk to the two Gazebos overlooking the Ocean to feel the fresh breezy air. Ideal for couples, singles, and families with modest kids. An Outdoor Pool, 3 Charcoal BBQ Grills, 2 Gazebos, and a fish cleaning station are available to guests.

There is no daily maid service but towel swap outs can be arranged for $10 upon request (paid directly to the cleaning service). There is a coin operated laundry room on site for longer stay guests.

Many local eateries/stores are within walking distance. Dollar General is right across the street and Food Lion is just a mile away. Additional eateries, a movie theater, and a shopping center are a short drive away.

Tricks and tips for getting the best Atlantic Beach vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, try changing your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local Morehead City area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides contain discounts for nearby tours and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking the bestrental:

• Choose vacation dates and budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. ????Cozy Seaside Studio Condo_Pool_Direct Beach Access has 1 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking websites. If not, contact the property owner before booking your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs applied to your invoice.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

During your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your family's visit, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Call the rental manager immediately to record any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to drive future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
