Beautiful Beachfront 6 Bedroom Home with Private Sundeck on Dune

Welcome to the New Himmelstrand! Heaven's Beach 2.0!

(Note: This is the first time this beautiful home has been available for beach rental. We’ve rented our precious beach home so we’re not new to the VRBO experience.)

Oceanfront coastal living at its finest! This sophisticated Surf City home was planned with incomparable attention to detail and built with the finest materials. Besides offering a breathtaking experience of sand and surf, this well appointed home invites you to lounge or rock in a chair on one of two spacious covered decks. You can also enjoy the sundeck on the dune and bask in full, glorious sun. Take a few steps to the sand and a few more to put your toes in the surf. That's when you understand why this beachfront home is called Himmelstrand, "Heaven's Beach."

Enjoy your stay in one of six large, tastefully decorated ensuite bedrooms. This multi-generation family-friendly beachfront home comes with numerous quality touches and amenities: an elevator services all three floors, newly renovated kitchen fully equipped for foodies and cooks alike with new quartz countertops, hardwoods and tile throughout, separate water heaters for each floor, a gathering play area with kitchenette, spacious outside shower, and beach access directly from the house. Himmelstrand has been lovingly maintained and appointed. Located 3/4 of a mile south of the Surf City pier on a quiet low traffic street, Himmelstrand is an easy stroll or bike ride from the shops and restaurants of Surf City.

Come and stay a while at Himmelstrand, Heaven's Beach. You won't regret it!

wonderful house located close to some restaurants and shops!

This is a beautiful and well kept property that is perfect for a group of adults. Everyone has their own bathroom and there’s one room that’s great for a family with kids. The house is well laid out and comfortable and the covered porch is amazing or sitting out and looking at the ocean when it gets too hot to sit on the beach. Really enjoyed our stay!

We had a fantastic week! The location was perfect and the house anticipates your every need. We especially enjoyed the deck every night listening to the ocean with a beverage in hand!

We gathered nine adults and one infant for a family celebration. The rooms and beds were comfortable. Ocean access could not be better. And the two covered decks created get connection space. Kitchen was well equipped but with a large group the refrigerator/freezer space was small. Overall it was fantastic.

Our stay in this lovely home was wonderful! There was plenty of room for our large family group. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was perfect for large group cooking. The home is situated in a quiet area on the beach and the view is beautiful. It is an easy drive to grocery stores and restaurants. Our hosts were gracious and quick to respond to any questions. By far the nicest home and beach location our family has stayed.

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It was very clean upon arrival and the location is fantastic. The views were wonderful from the top floor with the beach just a very short ways away!!! Location is also fantastic in Surf City with many places to eat, visit, etc. nearby. Our family really enjoyed our stay and the owners were wonderful to work with.

We are always in the lookout for the perfect beach house, and we might have just found it this year. We really enjoyed all aspects of our stay. The house was beautiful and well stocked, it was in a great location, and the property was well maintained. Our plans for next summer are still a little up in the air, but if we’re able to come back we would love to stay in this house again.

We had a party of 15 and everyone was very comfortable. This house is close to the beach which makes it easy to come and go. It’s also close to town and restaurants, grocery stores etc. The hosts are great. They are available and they email you once in a while reminding you to take out trash and asking if we need anything. Overall this was one of our best beach vacations and we want to return!!

Our family loved this beautiful home with easy access to the quiet beach. The home was very clean and the property manager went above and beyond in making our visit a wonderful week. Thanks to the owner for making this lovely home available for families to enjoy being together. This was our first experience with VRBO and we will certainly plan our next vacation with VRBO.

You couldn’t ask for a better place to stay! Owner really cares for his property and for his guests to make sure they are totally comfortable with his home! We enjoyed our stay, even though we had to deal with tropical storm Debby. Chad, the owner, stayed in constant contact with us to make sure that we were safe and that we were aware of the situation. Hopefully, we will be able to rent his home again next year. This was our second year staying in his property. Thank you Chad! Kathy

This was an awesome house for a multigenerational family including my 87 yo dad who needed the elevator and his room on the same level as the kitchen, common area and porch over looking the ocean. It was well stocked and we felt like we had our own private beach!

This house was perfect in every way and was big enough to comfortably accommodate 4 families. It was extremely well organized and the level of detail sets this house apart from any other place we have stayed. Every vacation need and want was satisfied! Thank you so much for an amazing vacation!
