OCEANFRONT — Greenwood Place — Settle into the awe of nature’s presence located in a pristine dune-top perch at SEASHELLA. Outside, the oceanside panorama is salve for the soul. Inside, warm Juniper wood and calming shades of blue are subtle reminders of the tamed wildness of Hatteras Island. Set back from the road, SEASHELLA offers two covered carports, two outdoor showers, a fish-cleaning table, and a private boardwalk that provides convenient dune-crossing access to the beach.

The first level is dedicated to dreams — the kind that come effortlessly when you sleep in well-appointed comfort. One master bedroom features a king bed and a intelligent TV/DVD. Two additional rooms offer access to a screened-in porch: one with two bunk beds and another with a queen. Both have intelligent TVs/DVDs and share a full hallway bath. A second queen bedroom features a intelligent TV/DVD and private full bath.

The second level is superbly designed for family gatherings. Prep your fresh-catch-of-the-day in the bespoke-designed kitchen and savor it around the 10-seat dining table. Then, join in the great room to regale the day or stream a classic on the intelligent TV/DVD. The kitchen opens to a roomy deck and screened-in porch with sweeping ocean vistas and rolling ocean waves. Any time you choose, soak in the six-person hot tub and revel in the contentment of the bubbling warm water and the sea across the sand. The king master suite offers true respite with a opulent full bath. Secure your private getaway to SEASHELLA today. Your memories await.

How to find the best rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Avon. Book your Hatteras rental home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides contain discounts for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to choose and book your Hatteras vacation home:

• Select your vacation week and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Oceanfront, Dog Friendly Cottage w\/ Pool, Hot Tub, and Nearby Beach Boardwalk has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Hatteras beach you are crazy about, browse rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
• Upon check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
