Rodanthe is surrounded by the Cape Hatteras National Seashore. It is considered by many to be a premier vacation destination with its fantastic recreational options. Known for its Fishing, Kayaking, Windsurfing, Surfing, Surf-Fishing or Deep-Sea fishing, it also offers one of the quieter beach destinations, as Rodanthe is a much smaller town than the area around the northern beaches. The beach is just a short walk away down a private boardwalk.

There is a boardwalk to the pool and over the dune to the beach. We are within walking distance to stores, eateries and the Rodanthe Pier. Send us an e-mail and let us know the dates that interest you.

Our cleaning service has significantly upped their game in response to the currrent crisis. In addition, we have added a UV light disinfection system to our HVAC unit to kill airborn covid-19 or other viruses and bacteria. Additional cleaning and disinfection wiping of all high contact surfaces, such as countertops, knobs, sinks, and other areas is being done. Unfortunately, as a result, we have been required to move our check in time to 6PM. A notice will be placed on the door when the cleaning is complete, and if so, you may enter as soon as 3PM.

POOL - For 2024, the pool will be open from May 25 through October 4. Please do not take any glass containers to the pool. There is no lifeguard. Please watch your kids closely.

LINENS and TOWELS: Please note that linens (sheets and towels) are NOT included with this rental. We do provide blankets, pillows, and comforters. There is one king bed, one queen bed, and the trundle is a twin, if you bring your own. Otherwise, These may be rented from our housekeeping service, Hatteras Helping Hands. Do a web search to find their number.

RENTAL POLICY: From mid-May through mid-September we rent Saturday to Saturday only. Other than that, there is a 3 nighttime minimum for the remainder of the year. If the booking system will let you book a stay, it is available. Our Condominium Bylaws do not allow Dogs and we do not allow any other family pets. Minimum Primary Renter Age is 23.

ID and RENTAL AGREEMENT: We require that you e-sign our rental agreement and also that you provide a clear and legible copy of your drivers license or government issued picture ID with your current address. Failure to provide this within 48 hours of your reservation may be considered as your cancellation of your reservation and possible loss of your payment, based on our refund policy.

REFUND POLICY: We know that things can happen. You can purchase trip insurance that provides reimbursement if you can't make your trip. Our refund policy is 97% if cancellation is received before 60 days out, and 50% if received more than 30-59 days out. The 97% is because the credit card company does not refund the credit card fee. It is not uncommon to have a mandatory evacuation from the coastal areas during Hurricane Season and it seems to happen at least once every few years. You will not receive any reimbursement unless you have purchased travel insurance, which is available during initial booking. In the event of a hurricane, please bring the outdoor furnishings into the living room, close and lock all doors and windows, then depart ASAP. If you will need housing, call and make reservations at another hotel out of the evacuation area immediately, before or while leaving, because all regional hotels fill rapidly during evacuations. Under no circumstances may you stay in the unit during a mandatory evacuation.

Tips to get the best Hatteras rental experience:

Find your perfect vacation home:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the most suitable rental home within your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your rental home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many property management companies supply Hatteras area travel guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning, selecting, and booking the perfectrental home:

• Select your vacation week and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Hatteras Heaven® - Oceanfront 2BR\/2 Bath Condo - Pool, Renovated Kitchen, King has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Does your group require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Note any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few issues.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
