4 Must-Have Amenities for a Relaxing Beach Vacation

  • Posted on

When planning a relaxing beach vacation, choosing the right amenities makes all the difference to your overall vacation experience. Whether you’re looking to unwind, catch up on some reading, or soak up the sun, there are a few must-have amenities to keep in mind as you plan your getaway.

 
1. Easy Beach Access
 
The first and most important amenity for a beach vacation is, of course, easy beach access. There’s nothing quite like being able to step out of your accommodation, right to the sand. Thankfully, all of our homes are either beachfront, have ocean views, feature neighborhood beach access, or are just a very short walk from the ocean. This makes it easy to travel with family members young and old!
 
2. Great Big Porches
 
Whether you could live in the sand or prefer to admire it from a distance, everyone needs a spacious porch to relax on while visiting the beach. Perhaps you'll enjoy your morning coffee watching the sunrise, partake in a meal outside, or maybe you will be lucky enough to catch a nap. However you choose to relax, a large porch with comfortable seating is a must!
          
 
3. Swimming Pool and/or Hot Tub
 
Sometimes, the ocean can be too rough or the weather too unpredictable, so having a swimming pool as an alternative (or added bonus) is a must. Three of our homes have private saltwater pools, ready to host you! On the contrary, if you're visiting in the cooler months or just enjoy extra relaxation, those same homes also have at least one private hot tub! Check out Tipsy Topsail, Island Asylum, and Sound Move- all of which have these perks.
 
4. Nearby Dining Options
 
After a long day on the beach, you won’t want to slave away in the kitchen or even venture too far for a satisfactory meal. Our homes are close to some of the best dining options on the island! Check out a few of our favorites here!
 
Overall, the key to a relaxing beach vacation is finding accommodations that offer the right mix of amenities to suit your needs. Remember these must-have amenities as you plan your getaway for a stress-free and enjoyable experience.
