A playful use of the many ocean and sky blues is mixed in with this semi-oceanfront Hatteras home! Less than a min. from the ocean walkway, Kite Tales tells the classic story of a happy Hatteras vacation holiday. Its four-bedroom and two-bathroom accommodations along with its dog-friendly policy, invites everybody (including four-legged friends) to come on this hideaway getaway.

Starting at the very top of this one-story home is the rooftop deck located for optimum ocean vistas and decorated in vibrant blue calming deck chairs. The main entrance is greeted by the living room, with plenty of seating and room to relax before (or after) a full day on the beach. Directly beyond that is the eight-seated dining room table with a fireplace backdrop and comfortable reading corner. Exiting off the carpet and into the kitchen is additional island-stool seating surrounded by additional cabinet and counter space. Prep your favorite beach home cuisines with plenty of room to store all the leftovers and ingredients in the kitchen's sizable refrigerator. Directly outside is the more deck space with tables that are ideal for outdoor lunches or early morning coffee.

Down the hall, on the opposite side of the in-home washer and dryer, are the four bedrooms. Two of the rooms feature one queen-sized bed in each while the remaining two bedrooms have two single-sized beds in each. With plenty of sleeping space for family and friends, each of the rooms has enormous windows to maximize natural light.

No matter what you choose, wake up every day refreshed and only steps away from the ocean. Other close by attractions include Teach's Lair Marina or simply go out and watch the sunset over the sound on the far side of the Marina. The Hatteras Landing stores are great for a shopping day while waiting for the ferry boats to sail you straight to Ocracoke (another amazing Island adventure featuring a brewery, art, books, eateries, events, and tons of pirate lore).

Back on Hatteras, this home is located near the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum (with complimentary admission, donations appreciated) as well as the final beach access ramp on Hatteras for off-road cars. With many eateries, bakeries/coffee stores, art galleries, and soundside units you will have so many great memories and stories to tell when you stay at Kite Tales.

Vacation rental home tips and tricks:

Find your perfect rental:

Booking your vacation rental in Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
In the Hatteras area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Additional considerations:

Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
To make certain that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the host right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of issues.

Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would back home.
Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Did you have a excellent time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews.

If anything was out of order 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.
