Whale House #112 - Great Location, Walk to beach, sound, bars, and more!

This is a Landmark Vacation Rentals home and can be rented with sister property Wright St8 of Mind (#113) for large groups and together can accommodate up to 21 guests.

Location, location, location! Right in the heart of it all, Whale House #112 is steps away from everything! Located in the heart of Wrightsville Beach, you are a quick walk from the beach, sound, restaurants, bar, park, shops, and fishing pier, Whale House is ready to host you. With 5 bedrooms, Whale House can comfortably accommodate 11 guests. There are multiple private decks, so start your day by enjoying the sea breeze while sipping coffee on either the private deck off the master bedroom or the deck off of the living room as you listen to the sound of the waves and the seagulls from the ocean. After preparing breakfast in the fully equipped kitchen, grab your paddleboard, kayak, or fishing pole and walk a few feet down to the end of the street and enjoy calm sound water access or a take a jog around “the loop” of Wrightsville Beach which the house is centered in. When it’s time to hit the beach, you will enjoy direct access just a few hundred feet from the house. After spending the day soaking up some rays and relaxing on the sand, shower off in the private outdoor shower and get ready for an evening of fun and relaxation. Relax in the shade of the covered carport while you grill out your favorite meal. As sunset nears, head to the rooftop deck with your favorite cocktail and enjoy the finest 360-degree view of the ocean, sound, and island Wrightsville has to offer. As you’re done watching the sun slip below the horizon, head across the street to see what’s biting at Johnny Mercers Fishing Pier, indulge in an ice cream from the Beach Shoppe, and enjoy a nightcap or snack at the Shark Bar and Kitchen or Palm Room, all just steps away from Whale House.
Not only is Whale House’s location ideal, but the comforts of the accommodations are also sure to satisfy all guests.

The second-floor kitchen has everything you need to enjoy your stay and includes a wine and beer refrigerator in the large center island, large sink, Subzero and Wolf appliances, and casual bar seating. The second floor also features a comfortable open concept living room with television and deck with outside dining area for four. A bedroom with a queen-size bed and TV with access to the hall full bathroom is also located on this floor.
The third floor has a large master bedroom with a king-sized bed, private balcony, and an en suite master bath complete with a jacuzzi tub and double vanity. Another bedroom has a king-sized bed with jack-and-jill bathroom connecting to a fourth bedroom with a set of twin bunk beds and additional twin trundle bed. The fourth floor has another room with a queen bed and desk/working area in case you need to slip away to complete some work, as well as a half bathroom, and access to the incredible rooftop deck.

To enhance the guest experience, this property has fun games for guests in the downstairs closet including darts, cornhole, a cooler, smash ball and beach jenga as well as a ping pong table. From location, to amenities, to furnishings, Whale House is ready to host your vacation or get-a-way and will leave you wanting to come back again!

Perfect stay for extended family!

The location is amazing, close to the beach and restaurants. A park is right across the street for kids. The house was extremely clean and comfortable for 9 people, six adults and 3 young children. The outdoor area under the house was great to relax after the beach and allow the kids to safely be outside without going into the street. Would definitely stay again!

Great location that has everything!

We were across the street from the beach, one block from the pier, two blocks from the running/walking trail…and had ample parking for two cars. The house has everything you would need. We cooked every meal for 7 adults. The refrigerator held the food, and there is a beer cooler and a wine cooler..so we were all set. We had a problem getting the TV to connect to the local channels, and the property manager was great about helping…even on a Saturday of a holiday weekend. She saved the day since it was the season opener of college football. Very happy! Great house.

Nice place

A lot of previous guests must have left their beach items at the house. The listing said to bring your own beach chairs, toys, towels etc., but when we arrived there was plenty available. Also the grill provided was unusable, we contacted the property management and they are aware.

All around wonderful!

This beach house was the perfect accommodation for our family. Very spacious living spaces with more than enough room. The master bed was so comfortable too. Having a rooftop to look out on all of wrightsville was a cherry on top. You can’t beat the location either! We will absolutely stay here again.
