About this apartment rental

If you have ever seen the TV show "Buying Alaska," you know one of their opening lines is...In Alaska, the real amenities are on the outside. The same applies to Kure Beach. When your trip brings you to Kure Beach to enjoy all those amenities, I invite you to make the most of your trip with a stay at The Heart of the Sea.

The Heart of the Sea is like no other at Kure Beach. Ground floor….corner unit….no stairs….with parking less than ten(10) feet from your front door! While not considered “handicap” approved, access to our unit with no stairs makes for the perfect vacation home! Step out your door and enjoy all that Kure Beach has to offer!!

The Heart of the Sea is as close as you can get to the ocean at Kure Beach......unless you are in it! The Heart is ten(10) steps from the beach access. The beautiful bedroom has a comfortable queen size bed, 2 night stands, chest, and wall mirror....double closet with plenty of storage space... and a VCR and 25 inch TV.

There are 2 bunks in the alcove with storage drawers for all those bathing suits and stuff the kids will want to bring! The living room furniture is so cozy and comfortable. You can sit in a favorite chair, on the sofa or in the recliner and still take in the amazing views without leaving the house! Charter Spectrum is both the internet and cable provider. You can enjoy the Spectrum Bronze package on the 42 inch smart TV.

One bath....with tub and shower combo, lots of counter space and a washer and dryer for your convenience .

Your fully equipped kitchen has a Mr. Coffee maker and a Keurig for your favorite cup of morning Joe. A built in microwave and counter top toaster oven are included for your convenience. Complete kitchen supplies are there for your use if you decide to eat in, possibly enjoying some of the locally fresh seafood.

You will have a 180 degree view of the 41.1 million square mile Atlantic Ocean! Standing on the deck at 11' above sea level has been described by guests as standing on the bow of a ship Can it get any better? Yes! It can and it does! Sit in the one of the two hammock chairs on the deck once and you will never want to leave this island paradise! A fixed table bar on the deck allows for dining on the deck while watching and listening to the mighty Atlantic. A charcoal grill for your use is located in the sand yard. Watch the dolphins play as you enjoy a meal on the built in deck bar! Don’t miss a thing trying to peer over the railing.

When in the mood for sand and surf, bring your beach chairs and umbrella from home or utilize one of the local rental companies, that book you've been wanting to read.... and sit on the quiet beach that is literally seconds from your door! Let the magic happen!

So much to do in the area and still feel like you have your own private island!
The NC Aquarium is 1 mile away. The Civil War rich Fort Fisher is adjacent to our property. This property includes approximately 1/4 mile walkway where you can revisit the protection the fort provided the Port of Wilmington. Take time to visit the visitor's center and view an audio visual program telling the history of Fort Fisher. The grand opening is tentatively set for Labor Day weekend for the 25 million dollar renovation to the visitor's center. The ferry is app. 2 miles away! For $7, you and your vehicle can cross the Cape Fear River to the amazing little town of Southport.

We want your experience to reflect our appreciation of our guests and of all our blessings! Should you need us, we are a phone call or text away. We want your time at The Heart to be all you want and all you expect it to be!

There is NO place like Kure! There is NO place like The Heart of the Sea! We sincerely hope it's your place to be in 2024.

What an incredible place to spend a few days. When you look at the pictures you kind of wonder, “Can it actually be THAT close to the ocean?” The answer is a resounding yes. We have never stayed anywhere so close to the water. It’s honestly kind of wild. We loved the location, the layout, the check in process, all of it. The host even sent an email with links to restaurants and things to do. If you’re looking for something off the regular touristy path…a little more out of the way…a little different…you should book this propriety now. We loved it. The sunrises on the deck were unbelievable. We wholeheartedly recommend!

We loved our stay at the condo! Family of 4 with two children (8,11). Steps from the beach, close to restaurants/shops, and everything you need for an amazing beach vacation. We loved sitting on the porch watching the waves and taking a break from the beach. Pool was great for the kids and the condo was just what we meeded.

It was great to be so close to the ocean. The condo had everything we needed. The kitchen was great and my wife was so happy that there was a laundry machine. The living space was very comfortable we will be back.

This is our second stay and it is such a great property. You cannot get closer to the ocean, and being able to watch and hear the surf right from the balcony hammocks is just heaven!

The place was super cute, even had a small bunk bed for kids. Perfect size for the two of us with a great spot on the beach right outside the unit. The view from the deck was amazing and we could hear the ocean from inside. Quiet location but it was a short ride to the boardwalk area. I would go back for future visits and the view!

We came to celebrate our 45th wedding anniv and wanted somewhere quiet and on the beach. The Heart was perfect! Excellent customer service from start to finish. We watched sunrises every morning on the covered deck and listened to the waves all day. We definitely 100 percent recommend staying here and home to come back often to Kure and stay here. Would give 10 stars for The Heart!! Only thing is you have renters above you and you can hear them sometimes if walk heavily But nights were quiet and we both slept great in comfortable bed. All reviews are true!!! The Heart is better than one can describe. Try it for yourself if you want a little bit of Heaven on Earth. Thats how we felt watching God paint beautiful sunrises over the ocean each day!!
