This beach home has everything you will need for an memorable beach escape. 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths (1 of which is handicap accessible), elevator, outside shower, hot tub (that seats 6), Solar Heated Pool (May through October - No guarantee on water temp during early May and after Mid-September), and a basketball goal. The game room has a Puck Hole table (like shuffleboard), full size foosball table, refrigerator, and a wet bar. The main living area has loads of board games, jigsaw puzzles, DVDs, and books. Each bedroom has its own Joey (that runs off the Hopper 3 system), so everybody can watch whatever they want at any time. If you have Netflix or Amazon, you can log on under your name and watch your favorites. It’s just a short walk to a semi-private beach (neighborhood access only). In 2015 Cape Hatteras was voted #5 on Top 10 U.S. beaches. The back decks overlook a enormous lake full of wildlife and nice distant view of the sound.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Hatteras vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

  • The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
  • June, July, and August are high season in Salvo. Book your vacation in Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
  • Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
  • Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
  • Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines contain offers and deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

  • Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a budget.
  • Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Elevator, Pool, Hot Tub and Very close to beach! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
  • Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, email the property owner before you reserve the home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
  • If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
  • Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More tips for your stay:

  • Add the property manager's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
  • Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of difficulties.
  • Lock your rental home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
  • Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be very helpful if there is a dispute.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
  • Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to propel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
