Perfect for young children!

Our third year spent at Michael’s place was just as good as always! Rare to find rentals where you don’t have to rewash dishes before using and can feel confident in the cleanliness of the sheets. Bunk beds are a favorite and the other condo owners are lovely!

Family vacation

This was the perfect place for our little family vacation. Beach access and pool access was a short walk away. Short drive to just about anywhere you want to go for food and entertainment. Communication with the owner was great! The guards and neighbors were super nice. The kitchen was fully stocked. The only thing I brought from home was my crock pot and waffle iron. It was awesome having the washer and dryer in the unit. The teenage kids complained a bit about the wifi, but even that worked out for the best. It got them off their phones! I would absolutely recommend this place. Thank you for the memories!

Great time!

We had a great time staying at Southwinds E5. Michael was great to get in touch with and answered any questions as needed. We had issues with the sliding glass door and he addressed it before we even arrived, letting us know what all was going on. The place was clean and we enjoyed it and plan on coming back next year! Highly recommend it!

Relaxing time at the beach

Enjoyed our time relaxing by on the beach. Would have been more enjoyable had the sliding door to the deck been in better operating condition and the fan in the living room wasn’t so loud. The condo was clean and nicely decorated and has everything we needed. Loved having a washer/dryer in the unit!

Nice Stay

Location was great and owner was very responsive. The room was not very clean upon our arrival and the items on the cleaners checklist had not all been completed. We washed our own linens, had to clean out the fridge and other parts of the condo. Other than that it was a nice trip.

Great Vacation

I had not been to AB in over 6 years, and it was so good to be back. I actually remember when the property was built. Unit was great, the only hiccup was the sliding glass door not functioning as it should, but we gave it a little TLC to make it so we could enjoy the balcony. We hope to return again.

The apartment was nice, clean and cozy. It only took about 4 minutes to walk to the beach, which was great! It was also easy to get in contact with Mr. Woodhall. We would definitely stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Woodhall

Host profile image
My daughter and I moved into this condo unit when she was 2 years old. We lived here for 7 years. I renovated the unit to make it comfortable to live in year-round or one week at a time! Everything is new, easy to use, and easy to clean. New AC/heat, new appliances, new washer/dryer. Wall was moved in master bedroom to allow a full-size bathroom that two people can use at the same time. Maybe the only such master bathroom in Southwinds. This also added closet space in the master bedroom. I chose Southwinds because it is a family oriented complex and kid friendly. My daughter has made many friends with kids coming down during the summer. She learned to swim in the pool by trying to keep up with the 'big' kids while shunning my advice. Usually there are some kids at the pool or beach to make friends with. However, it never gets too crowded or noisy that you can't relax and have a romantic getaway.

Why they chose this property

Southwinds is at the quiet end of Atlantic Beach near Fort Macon. From the Southwinds beach to the left is a 200-yard walk to the bath houses at Fort Macon State Park with a full concession. Freezer pops and ice cream used to be only 50 cents. Walk a mile further to Beaufort Inlet and Fort Macon - the actual Civil War brick fort that is full of cannons and reenactments. Friday night concerts are held in Fort Macon during the summer. During the day, bunny rabbits run across the front lawn. Sometimes large turtles crawl across the lawn. At night you may see foxes trot across the Southwinds parking lot, but they are shy and run away quickly. Bring a flashlight to the beach at sundown and look for ghost crabs along the edge of the surf. Sea turtles come to the area and lay their eggs during late Spring / early Summer nights and hatch during a full moon in the early Fall. Sea turtle nests are wired off and protected. Volunteers monitor the nests close to hatch time and the public can watch the turtles hatch if you are lucky enough to be there at the right time.

What makes this property unique

From Southwinds beach to the right is a two mile walk to the Oceana Pier, the Atlantic Beach circle and main public beach. Amos Mosquito's Restaurant is only half a mile down the road from Southwinds, with other restaurants just a little further down the road.
