What’s the difference between oceanfront, soundfront, and mainland rentals?
Oceanfront rentals put guests directly on the beach with unobstructed Atlantic Ocean views. Soundfront properties are waterfront, on Bogue Sound which also includes the Intracoastal Waterway. Mainland rentals in communities like Cedar Point and Newport sit off the barrier island and offer a more residential setting. Guests can also filter by second row, third row, middle row, and waterfront locations.
