Recently Renovate-handsome Maritime Forest bungalow in the private community of Ibis Roost.

Welcome to Ru Ru's by the Sea on Bald Head Island, North Carolina.

Located in the calming and beautiful community of Ibis Roost, Ru Ru's by the sea is a place to appreciate all of the Bald Head Island magic located in the serene maritime forest. Our 3 bedroom and 3 bathroom bungalow is steps away from a very private community pool shared only by neighbors within the Ibis Roost community. With two beach cruisers, razor scooters as well as two golf carts (two four-passenger carts), we are located only mins. away from multiple beach access locations as well as the Maritime Market and other fashionable shopping locations in the Maritime Forest.

BHI is our happy place and we hope you experience all the magic that we have grown to adore. To make our home delightful for your vacation, we have chosen furnishing and decor particularly with families in mind. The location of RuRu's by the Sea is ideal for a family. The kids will appreciate a swim in the private pool before bedtime making mom and dad's job all the easier. Run, do not walk, to the screened in porch to savor a peaceful glass of wine as the kids doze off from a fun day at the beach. Bicycle, cart or walk to discover the close by beaches or the wonder of the maritime forest.

We belong to the Bald Head Island Club as Lifestyle Members (pool, golf and eateries). Restrictions do apply for temp members, inquire with the BHI CLUB. You may wish to purchase a guest membership separately to enjoy the new state of the art pool complex - a separate adult training pool, water slide and splash pad for the kids! This membership accepts for the opportunity to dine at the club eateries.

Ru Ru's by the sea is a 1500 sq foot bungalow in the Ibis Roost community. The Ibis Roost neighborhood is made up of 29 cottages on a peaceful cul-de-sac off of the main roads of the island - ideal for cycling and walking even with little ones! RuRu's is directly across from the shared community pool.

Our bungalow features three bedrooms (two downstairs and an open loft third upstairs) and three bathrooms. Downstairs, you will find a king master bedroom with ensuite bathroom. The second main floor bedroom features a queen bed and full sized bed with a full bath just across the hall. The main living area room is open concept to the dining room with plenty of comfortable seating and space to spread out.

The kitchen was completely remodeled in 2021 with brand new appliances and cabinetry.

The upstairs open loft area is the ideal space for kids and teens, or even for a modest family to share. The bedroom features two twin over twin bunk beds.

New floors were installed in 2021 throughout the home as well as new wall to wall carpet. All bedrooms as well as the living room are equipped with intelligent TVs.
Off of the living room is a cozy screened in porch with appreciate seat and chair where you can relax under the breeze of a ceiling fan listening to the many peaceful sounds of the forest.

Strategies to get the best rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Brunswick area area. To book the largest rental home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Brunswick area attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
  • Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
  • Property management companies often offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
  • Many rental management companies supply Brunswick area area travel guides which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the best rental home:

  • Select a group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a budget.
  • Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Amazing, refreshing and serene- Coastal Cottage has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
  • Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking pages. If not, email or call the host before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
  • If there's a certain Brunswick area destination you love, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
  • Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or costs could be applied to your agreement.

More tips for your stay:

  • Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
  • To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the rental manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
  • Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
  • Respect the neighborhood. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
  • Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
  • When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
  • Did your group have a excellent vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
