Newly Updated and Centrally Located Luxury Condo with Wonderful Ocean Views

Rare top floor ocean/lake view luxury condominium located in the center of Pleasure Island. Very spacious and comfortable at over 2000 sq feet. Upscale throughout. 4 bedroom, 3.5 baths. Sleeps up to 10. The top floor has a Queen master suite with a flat screen tv, a private master bath, half bath, gourmet kitchen, granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, wine/coffee bar, dining/living room, large flat screen tv, beautiful furnishings with custom lighting, and a ocean view balcony with incredible ocean views. The lower floor has 2 tastefully decorated queen bedrooms and 1 bedroom with 2 twin beds. 2 full baths are located on this level as well. 2 of the 3 bedrooms have flat screen tvs. There is a lake view balcony off the rear bedroom. Upon request, a linen/towel package can be ordered and set up prior to your arrival (a linen/towel package fee applies). Separate heating and cooling zones. Private garage with elevator that services each floor. Located on a semi private street across from the ocean. Just a few steps to the beach access. Take a short stroll to the boardwalk and enjoy the thrill rides, listen to live music at the pavilion, grab a slice of pizza, have a Britt's donut (rated #2 donut shop in the nation), chocolate-covered strawberries from the Fudgeboat, and watch the fireworks at dark. Highly rated restaurants preparing some of the finest seafood on the east coast are just minutes away. Or just stay in and view the fireworks from your ocean-side balcony. If being on the beach all day isn't enough, walk across the street to the lake and rent a paddle boat, let the kid's play on the playground, or sit at one of the gazebos located on the water. Take a ride down to Ft. Fisher and walk through the civil war museum (look for info on the Ft. Fisher Hermit) or go to the NC Aquarium at Ft. Fisher. The live oaks at Ft. Fisher is a perfect back drop for photos. Or go sea shell collecting here. Water sports are in abundance nearby with charter fishing, jet ski rental, surfing lessons, and sea kayaking. Challenging golf courses are only a few miles away. Whether it is sunbathing on the beach, renting scooters or a golf cart and sight seeing, or watching a free outdoor movie on Sunday nights at the Lake (located just across the road), there is lots to do on Pleasure Island and this condo is right in the middle of it all.

Ideal Location
Even though our stay was brief, our family enjoyed staying at this condo! The proximity to the beach, lake, and boardwalk was ideal. If desired, it is possible to park your vehicle and not have to drive for your entire stay. My husband and I arrived first, and we had a little difficulty finding the light in the elevator, but once we did (with the owner's help, of course!), it was alright. This was the first time we had ever had access to a residential elevator. This condo is beautiful and spacious! We really enjoyed being on two floors and being able to spread out! My husband and I enjoyed being on a floor by ourselves! I don't think anyone would regret staying there.

Family beach week
We highly recommend Big Blue! The condo was even bigger than we thought it would be. It was well equipped, clean and the elevator was a terrific plus. The beach access is very close. The beach is clean and there is a lifeguard. Roger, the host, was very responsive to all of my questions. He provided good directions and info about activities and restaurants on the island. All 6 of us agreed we would love to return to Big Blue if we can.

Perfect place and location
The house had everything a family spanning three generations could need. Recommend your buy the linen package for one less item to tote from home. Be aware the package is for the bedrooms and doesn't cover the fold out sleeper in the living room. Also if you need more than one towel per person bring extra. Highly recommend this place.

We had a wonderful time at Big Blue this year. There was room for everyone, and the location was perfect! Roger was great in helping us prepare for our arrival. This beautiful home has everything you need to enjoy a wonderful week at the beach. We never got in our car after arrival. Thank you Roger for sharing your home! We look forward to visiting again!

Great rental with all the amenities
I can't say enough good things about Big Blue! We stayed for a week and we had a blast. The condo comes well-stocked with everything you need. We did get the add-on linen package so that we didn't have to bring sheets. So that was helpful. But otherwise, the owner provided additional beach chairs and boogie boards in the garage. The kutchen came fully stocked. And the elevator was a huge convenience for our elderly family who have trouble going up and down stairs. We left already thinking about how we could rent Big Blue for next year!

Everything we wanted!
This house was perfect for everything for a 6 person friend trip. Beautiful views of the ocean. Beach access right across the street. Walkable to everything you could possibly need - restaurants, bars, shopping. Roger was very nice and informative for everything we needed to know about the house. We didn’t use the elevator for ourselves, but it was awesome for loading in groceries and luggage. 10/10 would book again!

Amazing Place!!
We loved this property - clean, modern, loaded with amenities and right in the middle of the action. We had 5 people and had more than enough space to spread out and to gather. The view from the deck was perfect, and many things (including the beach and restaurants) were within walking distance. Parking was also easy. There were definitely lots of stairs, but it was worth the climb, and the freight elevator made transporting our stuff easy. We would love to stay here again and highly recommend it.
