Featured Property – This is the Life

Last Updated:April 23 2025

Embrace vacation mode at this week’s Featured Property, This is the Life, a stylish 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom middle-row cottage in Atlantic Beach. From the sleek chef-style kitchen to the inviting private pool, every space is designed to make your family getaway as relaxing and memorable as possible.

Scroll through the photo gallery to see the modern coastal furnishings, spacious living areas and fully furnished decks that make this vacation rental a dream for families looking to reconnect and enjoy the best of Atlantic Beach. Conveniently located near popular attractions, local shopping and coastal dining spots, you’re never far from the fun and you might find yourself saying, “This is the life!”

Where Easy Meets Elegant

With vaulted ceilings and soft coastal hues, the main living space at This is the Life is the place you’ll be excited to return to after every adventure. The modern coastal couches are as elegant as they are comfortable, perfect for stretching out, flipping through vacation photos, or simply relaxing as the afternoon light filters in. A large TV anchors the room, where you’ll love gathering for cozy movie nights after a full day by the water.

Just steps away, the chef-style kitchen is a dream for those who love to cook and connect. Outfitted with stainless steel appliances and a fresh blend of coastal blues and whites, it’s the ideal spot for tossing a crisp salad, grilling fish tacos or prepping a beach picnic as a family. The beautiful dining table, with room for 10, is ready for shared meals, game nights, and everything in between.

Just off the main living area, a covered deck features a spacious outdoor table perfect for card games, board games or laid-back lunches while you chat about the day’s adventures. On a separate level, the second deck features a set of comfortable chairs where you can ease into the morning with coffee while you take in the coastal air.

Drift into Coastal Dreams

After a full day of beach adventures, there’s nothing better than retreating to a space designed for relaxation. This is the Life boasts 4 updated bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, providing every guest a comfortable place to recharge and wake up ready for another day of vacation fun.

This rental property’s primary bedroom features a plush king bed and serene coastal furnishings that invite you to unwind. Two additional bedrooms offer queen beds, each styled with inviting decor and cozy touches that make bedtime something to look forward to. For the kids, a fun bunk room awaits—complete with a twin-over-double bunk bed, a TV for cartoon marathons and movie nights, and an attached bathroom with a double vanity so there’s plenty of space for getting ready.

Each bedroom includes a TV and beautiful furnishings that balance beachy charm and home-like comfort, setting the stage for deep sleep and easy mornings. Whether settling into soft sheets after a long day or waking up to soft morning light, every night spent here feels like a true coastal escape.

Home Base for Coastal Adventures

From This is the Life, it’s a quick stroll to the sand, where your coastal adventures begin. With soft shorelines and sparkling waves waiting moments away, it’s a breeze to fill your days with family fun at the beach. Build towering sandcastles, jump through the surf, toss a frisbee, or just stretch out and enjoy the sunshine. Packing for a day by the ocean is simple—load up a blanket and some snacks, and you’ll be settling into your beach spot before you know it.

When it’s time to refuel, head back to the house and fire up the gas grill. From grilled seafood to veggie skewers, nothing beats a casual backyard meal after a few hours in the sun. The private pool is a favorite gathering spot throughout the day. Splash around with the kids, float beneath the afternoon sky, or return for an evening swim as the sun begins to dip low on the horizon.

After a full day of sun and saltwater, the enclosed outdoor shower is the perfect place to rinse off before heading inside to relax or get ready for your next adventure.

If fishing is on your vacation list, the Crystal Coast has you covered. Try your luck at Bogue Inlet Pier or charter a deep-sea excursion for something more adventurous. Back at This is the Life, a professional-grade icemaker and fish-cleaning station on the ground level makes it easy to clean and prep your catch before cooking it up for dinner.

Looking to explore beyond the beach? You’re just a short drive from Fort Macon State Park, where you can tour a historic Civil War fort and hike scenic coastal trails. The North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores is a must for families, and the charming town of Beaufort offers history, shopping, and waterfront dining. Wherever your day takes you, This is the Life puts you right in the heart of it all.

Book Your Stay at This is the Life

This is the Life delivers everything you want in a coastal getaway—from sunny days just a short walk from the sand to relaxing by the private pool, grilling up the day’s fresh catch, and exploring nearby Fort Macon. This coastal cottage is ready to welcome your whole family for an unforgettable escape. Select your dates and start planning your stay today!
