2 bedroom top-floor condo at Peppertree Atlantic Beach Resort, right on the ocean. Beachfront building 18: SEE MAP in PHOTO Section. Full kitchen, elevator, full resort activities, minigolf, indoor+outdoor pools, hot tub, tennis, washer/dryer. Walk to movie theaters, grocery, eateries, surf stores, and retail. Down to studs reno & update in 2020. Sleeps 6 (King+2 Twins+Queen Sofabed, or 7-8 if you bring an air bed to fit in twin room; worked with family of 8 once). Prime location @resort. Great for families, extended families, or just adults on vacation. Just 60 seconds walking to the beach access path.

We have multiple positive reviews on Airb&b for this property, but are also freshly on Vacation Rental By Owner. But you can find our same property with about 10 reviews there.

**Our preference is to rent out our 7 day week to guests that want it for the entire 7 days from Friday to Friday. If you wish to rent for less than 7 nights and check in or check out on other days, please feel complimentary to message and let us know what you want. The weekend nights of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are the most expensive nights, and if we only rent for those, it leaves the other weekday nights as the only remaining nights which are harder for us to rent.**

Full blown beach resort. Reviews are on trip advisor. Gorgeous wooded area with paths and walkways, and then a bigger open area closer to the beach. Great for families or groups. Lots of kids activities like a kiddie pool, sprayground/splashpad, playground, basketball court, mini-golf, hammocks, gym/exercise center. On site activities department provides tons of options for families and individuals to participate in special events, pig pickin', scavenger hunts, crafts, games, introductions to local attractions. Super convenient, and this is the prime condo location within the resort.

complimentary parking for max of 2 cars (you'll get up to 2 parking passes), walking distance to grocery, movies, eateries, and shopping at Atlantic Station. 5 mins. to Morehead City waterfront, 12 mins. to historic Beaufort.

Super convenient and brand new 2020 entirely REBUILT (down to the studs) after 2018 hurricane. Renovated and refreshed 2 bedroom condo at Peppertree oceanfront resort. Top floor beachfront ocean location, so no noisy upstairs neighbors! Elevator and suitcases carts for groceries, beach stuff, and suitcases. Master bedroom (King bed) with master bathroom, granite double vanity, tub & shower, 2nd bedroom has 2 twin beds, and living area has pull out full sized sofabed. 3 flat screen TVs with cable, one in each room, complimentary wifi, completely equipped granite counter kitchen, resort activities. 3 pools including one indoor and two outdoors, plus splash pad / sprayground plus hot tub. Go downstairs and in 60 seconds you'll be on the beach walkway. This is a VERY family friendly place. Why just rent a beach home when you can get an entire resort for the same rate?

The washers and dryers in the laundry center are now COMPLIMENTARY for all guests.

Please note that our photos have a range of years shown in the view towards the ocean from the condo. The photo captions reflect the growth and popularity of our resort beachfront location, and in addition to some showing the legacy view before 2018, they also show a handful of new single family homes constructed since the 2018 hurricane. These new homes on the dunes are adjacent to the beach access walkway. It's still an exceptional view to the ocean and walk is just as painless to get to the sand, but we wanted to fully disclose why the photos range from completely unobstructed to more homes on the dunes. And we also wanted to show how after the hurricane rebuild, that the beach access path and shelter look different compared to the main listing photo.

Our condo is located beachfront in Phase 2 (buildings 15-25)

The other Peppertree listing here on Airb&b (not mine) is for Phase 3 (buildings 26-33) and located rather a walk from the beach in the mosquito/swampy tree area close to the highway. The Phase 3 building style looks very "motel / motor court" type of accommodations much like Motel 6 where you park 3 feet from your front door, rather than a "beach condo." The other listing will not indicate that's where your condo will be, but if you are booking for the Summer, you will 100% be booked there despite where the website price tag appears on the map.

To avoid being disappointed and wanting to cancel an alternate booking, ask the host EXACTLY which condo building and floor you are booking BEFORE you purchase, and compare it to the building map in photos here. I can promise you our condo is EXACTLY as posted at building 18, top floor, and that we personally took the photos. Just saying, watch out.

Read the booking reviews for the cheaper options ("2 Bedroom Atlantic Beach Condo with Beach Access" and "hosted by Kevin" ) and you'll see complaints like "no view" "surrounded by trees" "long walk to beach". I stopped counting after 15 different reviews said "not the condo from the photos in the listing" for that listing. Book it and you will be WAY far in the back of the resort next to the road when booking summer time thru that listing or those stating Wyndham/Ramada reservations.

Sometimes the other sites will appear to list this resort as Wyndham/Ramada but that's just using their reservations platform to offer inventory in the worst section of the resort. The property itself is in no way a Wyndham or a Ramada property and is not affiliated with those chains in any way. Virtually all of the other cheaper "Atlantic Beach Resort - A Ramada by Wyndham" listings are the Phase 3 buildings in the mosquito woods with no balconies and far from the beach.

2024 is our 3rd season on Vacation Rental By Owner for this property but multiple reviews on airb&b for my exact same property over the past 10 summers. We only rent out one week per year so there will never be a ton of reviews. Building 18, top floor.

Feel complimentary to contact me with any questions!

How to book the best vacation home experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Summer is high season in the New Bern area. To find the largest rental home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at popular New Bern attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain offers and deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning and choosing your prefectvacation home:

• To start, have your group decide on a vacation week and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. 2 Bedroom Ocean Resort Condo Peppertree Renovated sleeps 6 in 4 beds has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you reserve the home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish which bed configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or charges might be applied to your invoice.
• If there's a particular New Bern destination you crave, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Tips to have a fantastic stay:

• Add the host's contact information to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of issues.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. text the rental manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your peaceful home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on great feedback to propel future reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
