Inescapable View-a 7BR/8.5+BA Dune Ridge estate with magnificent ocean views!

(7BR/8.5+.5+.5BA,1K/2Q&T/3Q/2T, SLP 16,3 Golf Carts, Saturday Turn in Peak Season, CHECK OUT 10:30AM / CHECK IN 4:30PM) NEWLY RENOVATED with 4 golf carts! Inescapable View is a magnificent 7BR/8.5+.5+.5BA estate atop the Dune Ridge of Bald Head!

Floor-to-ceiling windows provide truly inescapable views of South Beach's coastline. On the other side of the house is an equally alluring view of the untouched Maritime Forest. On the first floor of the main house are three family-friendly suites, each with its own private bath. Two are furnished with a Queen bed and a Twin. The third, and largest, is a Queen that is set apart-offering a little more privacy. The first level also boasts a bright, comfortable sitting area with bench seating and a flat-screen television.

Up the stairs, to the main floor of this reverse floor-plan home, you'll find a vast living space featuring towering ceilings and breathtaking briny vistas through walls of windows. This bright, light-filled area features clean lines, contemporary furnishings and a decorative fireplace. Nearby, the open, luxe dining room easily seats eight with extra chairs to squeeze ten and also serves panoramic views of the beach. If you prefer alfresco dining, a table that seats six is on the adjacent screened porch just through sliding doors. For forest views, enjoy your food on yet another shaded deck. Inescapable View's kitchen features granite counters, a kitchen island with prep sink, stainless appliances and a breakfast bar that seats four-making this kitchen a chef's dream. There is also a wet bar to help you relax and rejuvenate.

Occupying this home's top floor is the King Owner's Suite boasting a private balcony that delivers grand views-it's the perfect spot to relax in the morning or watch the evening's sunset. The secluded sitting area just outside the bedroom provides a tranquil location to catch up on some reading or doze in one of the comfortable chairs. The bedroom itself offers a luxurious King bed and a flat-screen. Its accompanying ensuite includes both a jetted tub and a customized tiled shower across from his and hers sinks.

Down the boardwalk from the main house (just thirty yards) is the crofter guest house. This three-story haven is as big as some full-size houses! A large Queen suite with its own private bath encompasses the entire first floor. On the second level you'll find two more suites, each with their own private full baths. One of these features a Queen and the other holds two Twins. Both access a roomy balcony that overlooks South Beach. The crofter's third floor features a large living space that includes another comfortable sitting area with a flat-screen, a dining space with a table that seats six and a kitchenette with sink and mini-fridge. Adjacent to the kitchenette is a roomy balcony where you can enjoy views of the coastline while rocking to gentle breezes.

Inescapable View's amenities include three golf carts (two four-passenger carts and one six-passenger) as well as support through WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends. This house has a one-week-minimum stay year round. NOTE: WIFI is available in main house only. No crofter wi-fi access. Once you stay here, you'll want to escape every year to Inescapable View!

Inescapable relaxation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful home on BHI, this was our second stay in that particular property; the location is beautiful and the views just right. Close to the beach and spacious for large groups, with a nice living room for evening game playing. This time around we were a little disappointed with a few house maintenance details; the oven doesn't work well at all, neither do either dishwasher - (thought we loved the fact that there are two, we had to go back and hand wash 30-40% of what came out of the dishwasher. The golf carts left us stranded on 4 occasions despite leaving them to charge overnight each time, there were a good amount of light bulbs that were not working, and several toilets were constantly refilling due to slow leaks. I do have to be fair and give huge props to the maintenance guys for always being right there to help and responding super fast to our cries for help, and would go back to this house in a heartbeat, also understanding that beach properties (and rentals) get beat up - but an appliance upgrade would go a long way.

The kitchen was the hub and delightfully huge. Cooking was a pleasure. The weather was "to die for" beautiful all week. The BHI club suited us to a Tee - literally. Great gym. We'll be back!

9 Kinross

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Many dead roaches and the carpets are exceptional stained. Otherwise, the house was wonderful, very big and comfortable. The golf cart situation was bad, twice dead batteries and one flat tire. Also the 6 person cart had only one headlight so that coming home in the dark was exceedingly dangerous. For 13 people we had only 2 Shoals and 4 BH Club cards. Not nearly enough and rather embarrassing to be turned away by the kids at the Clubs. Finally, a borrowed wifi device was in question but I believe one of your agents picked it up. I had expected a little better from Wendy Wilmot.

Problems with the golf cart twice . 2 TV wouldn't change channel , sink wouldn't drain , problems with the AC . I ask for partial refund and I have received nothing after Wendy said she would send a partial refund.

Everything you'd ever hope for... And more!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: From the second we stepped off the ferry & were greeted by members of the Wendy Wilmot team to the sad moment when we left the island to return to the real world, we were all on Turtle Time in between. The property is lovely & well maintained. Quality furnishings that are not typical of rental properties. Plenty of room for a large group like ours to sprawl out. When we needed additional pans for a large meal prep... Wendy Wilmot's people stopped by with some. When our cart blew a tire our loaner (which was delivered immediately) was a cool Wendy Wilmot yellow rig. This is the most thorough rental company around... From the second you express interest in renting they are so terribly helpful. Our entire group will indeed by returning to BHI, my happy place... And when we do we will rent from no one other than Wendy Wilmot. Best experience hands down!
