Don’t miss out on a beach summer vacation! Book now for 2025!

Our 2nd row full ocean view in the Islander Villa Community in Ocean Isle Beach, NC is ready to welcome you and your family/friends!
We are a second row villa with no unit built in front of us on the first row, giving you a perfect view of the Atlantic Ocean and dunes. We are one building over from the seasonal pool (Memorial Day - Labor Day) and Islander Clubhouse. We have a large covered deck with comfortable seating so you can enjoy your morning coffee while listening to ocean waves or a quiet lunch while a shrimp boat sails by. Get away from the hustle and bustle of busier beaches, while still having access to plentiful local restaurants, shopping, golfing, mini-golf, fishing piers, shopping, concerts, playgrounds, zip-lining, boat rentals, and other activities and wonderful Islander Villa amenities: seasonal pool (open Memorial Day-Labor Day given no maintenance or events), hot tub, kiddie pool, tiki bar, & pickleball and tennis courts. The town of Ocean Isle also boasts a fabulous playground and splashpad for when you take a break from the waves. Enjoy the Friday night free concert series all Summer long!

There are over 100 golf courses in the surrounding area and plenty of family-friendly restaurants and activities, including the newly remodeled OIB Park with splashpad, ziplines, pickleball/basketball court, playgrounds, covered picnic area, and more!
The serenity of the white sandy beaches are waiting to welcome you and your family back when your adventurous spirit needs a break. You may even find yourself so enamored with the thousands of shells and beautiful waves that you sit back, relax, and enjoy the wonderful, slow beach life we love at Ocean Isle Beach.
Beautiful updated lighting and floors welcome you as you enter the home. Our Luxury Vinyl Plank throughout allows for easy clean up and comfort underfoot. Lighting and fresh paint keep that beachy feel going even during your moments off the beach. You will truly relax when you visit A Wonderful Life!
We offer a fully-stocked kitchen with both a Keurig and coffee maker, as well as all you need to make a home-cooked meal. All appliances are recently updated and easy to use. The huge updated fridge - large enough to store all your groceries for the week - includes an ice maker for cool drinks on hot days. A charcoal grill is also available for your favorite grill-master to utilize during your stay. (Please supply your own charcoal.)

Each bedroom is a suite, with a full bath and a TV with Roku:
-Bedroom 1 is a Master with a King, jetted tub, and dual sinks
-Bedroom 2 is another Master with a king and full bath
-Guest Bedroom #1 boasts 1 Queen and 1 double bed, plus an ensuite with raised toilet for older guests.
-Guest Bedroom #2 has 2 double beds and access to a bathroom that opens to the bedroom and hallway.

We keep a pack-n-play and portable booster seat on hand for the littlest travelers.

Linens & towels are included with each rental but please bring your own beach towel and crib sheet if needed.

There is available parking for up to 4 vehicles. We are a first floor condo with just a quick flight of stairs or a brief elevator ride up from the parking level. We do have outside security cameras at both front and back entrances to condo. Your beach chairs and sand toys can be stored in the storage room marked A on the parking level - feel free to use the ones left behind by others!

Great place!
We chose this condo because of the proximity to friends' places in the same complex, and it was perfect for our family of four (with a few kid sleepovers too!) We loved the location - not far from the beach and steps to the pool! The unit itself was very clean and had everything we needed - beds were comfy, kitchen stocked, etc. We had a wonderful LDW which was capped off by a sea turtle hatching on our last night. Sweetest memories! Will definitely be back.

Perfect Beach Getaway
The condo is spacious and was spotless. The covered front porch is amazing and I would have slept out there but the beds were super comfortable. The beach is a two minute walk to either beach access. The Isles Club is such a great perk as the pool is huge and you can have drinks from the bar while your kids play! Fantastic rental, would rent again. Only gripes were that there was no toilet paper in the condo and we have to go buy some and the remot to the TV in the Living Room did not work so we could not get the Roku working.

First Family Beach Vacation
This property was perfect for our family of 9. The description could not have been more accurate. It was an easy walk to the pool where we also used the beach access. The kitchen was fully equipped. We ate in the majority of the week and had everything we needed to prepare our meals. The porch with the ocean view was perfect for our early rising 2 year old while the teens slept in. Any questions I had were answered quickly by the host. We will definitely be back!

This was our second stay here for our family. Love the open living area and the deck, quite comfortable and beautifully furnished. Kitchen is well stocked and the four baths makes for quick clean up for our family of ten after active days. Short walk to beach and amazing pool. Kelly has been very helpful. Really appreciate her help and the info provided that made our arrival and stay so easy and fun.

This condo was the perfect location for accessing the pool as well as the beach. The cleared lot across the street gives a great ocean view from the shaded porch. Our family of 6 had plenty of room and the kitchen was well stocked with all that we needed for preparing meals. Kelly was quick to respond to all of our questions and a pleasure to work with. We will absolutely be booking another stay at "It's A Wonderful Life"!!

Great Condo - Short walk to beach.
This condo was very clean and nicely furnished. The elevator made it easy for us to get my 93 year old mother in and out of the house and out onto the back porch for an ocean view. She had her own bedroom and private bath that included a built in shower bench. The ocean porch had seating and two small tables that we used for our breakfasts. The porch also had a nice double swing chair and a lounge chair with cushions. House had a portable charcoal grill which we used out on the grass for some of our family dinners. We had extended family, so we rented two condos, and the proximity of the condos within the complex made it easy for everyone to get together while giving everyone the space we needed. The short (< 5 min) walk to the beach was perfect! We would definitely stay here again!

Great condo by the beach!
This place was everything we expected and did not disappoint. The view was so nice off the back deck and it hardly gets any sun during the day. It was a favorite spot of ours! The beds were comfy and the furnishings and decor throughout were nice. The kitchen was by far the best appointed kitchen I have seen with extras like a crockpot, muffin tins and cake pans along with a lot of other items. Access to the beach was so close and felt very safe letting our older teenagers go to the beach on their own. The pool was nice and the tiki bar too but wish the hot tub would have been hot but that is part of Islander Resort so they must have had issues going on. A helpful tip to anyone that hasn’t been to Ocean Isle before there is only one way onto the island so Sat evening the traffic is horrible because the police have to direct it around the roundabouts. It took us 50 min to go 3 miles (we arrived around 5). Suggest arriving early and taking advantage of the pool passes or beach until the house is ready. The owners were awesome and Kelly was quick to respond to any questions I had. Would definitely stay again!

Great view, great location
This was my first time at Ocean Isle Beach and it was quaint and beautiful. The location of this property is perfect — gorgeous views from the back porch with comfortable outdoor furniture where you would want to spend most of your time. Short, easy walk to the beach. I enjoyed the condo for a girls getaway weekend but it would also be great for a family. Spacious open floor plan for us to enjoy hanging out. The communication with the property management team was wonderful. Not only did they offer frequent and fast communication but also were caring and helped us celebrate a birthday. Already trying to plan a trip back!

Have never rented sight unseen before and was leary. 3 couples, we were coming down from NJ for a wedding and it was up to me to find a place. It turns out I picked prefectly. We were 6 houses from the wedding. Nicely appointed and plenty of room. Fabulous deck with an awesome view of the ocean. All of said we’d stay here again. The owners are very easy to deal with from start to finish. Thank you

Nice clean surprisingly large condo! Crisp clean linens. Elevator accessible. Kitchen well stocked with dishes/plates/glasses. Has a small wet bar as well which can be put to good use depending on the party :) Deck has a nice unobstructed view of the ocean above the dunes. Access to the beach is right around the corner. Description on VRBO is true to IRL! My party included my parents (82/72 yrs old) and one bathroom tub was low enough for my father to use comfortably, plus all showers have a seat in the other bathrooms.

Beautiful Condo - Great Location!
We've stayed at many condos in the Islander Villa community in the past, and this one by far is our favorite!! The unit is beautiful, well-stocked, and the beds are so comfortable! The views are breathtaking. I enjoyed every morning sitting on the porch in the sun, stretched out in the lounge chair, drinking my coffee and listening to the waves crashing. Very short walk to the beach. Owner is very nice and is great at communication. She was super accommodating when we accidentally left something in the condo and had to go back in after check out time to get it! Loved this property and will definitely be back!!!

Love, love, love this property! The location is excellent. Great ocean view with a wonderful deck - swing, rockers, and a large lounge chair - all super comfy! Easy access to the beach and pool. Our teens and college age kids enjoyed being close to N Myrtle for shopping but everyone loved the area around the condo and could easily have stayed local for everything. Owners communicate well via inbox and even text if needed. We had no issues. Super clean, modern decor, enough seating and supplies for everyone. This is a MUST!
