Welcome to Better Surf Than Sorry! The name says it all. Are you ready for your dream vacation? Well look no further. 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. You will have unforgettable sunset vistas and starting late in the day you’ll be amazed at the symphony that all the little critters in the lake produce. Finally, why pay additional or have to upgrade to a “Gold” rental to have sheets and linens? They are included in our price. So whether it is a week or more for a calming vacation or couple day’s hideaway you won’t regret Better Surf than Sorry.

Tips to get the optimal Hatteras rental home experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

  • Summertime is high season in the Hatteras area. To get the best value, try changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
  • Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
  • Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your family qualifies for a discount.
  • Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
  • Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to choose and book the perfectrental home:

  • Select a group lead, select your vacation week, and select a budget.
  • Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Elevator, Pool, Hot Tub and Very close to beach! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
  • Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
  • If there's a certain Hatteras beach you are enamored with, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
  • Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
  • If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

  • Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
  • During check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
  • Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
  • Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
  • Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
  • Did you have a excellent time? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
