OCEANFRONT Avon — Ocean View Drive — Along with your bags, pack you sense of adventure, your joy for discovery and your want to go with the flow when you head to LIVIN THE DREAM, a elegant 5,000-square-foot, seven-bedroom/five-full and one-half-bath home located less than two miles from the iconic Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. Here, life is indeed enormous, with everything you could want to turn your vacation into the next memorable chapter of your family’s story.

Pull up to the home set back from the road and note the sizable grassy area where your welcomed family dog can shake out the zoomies. There’s a volleyball net and ping pong table here, too, to inspire some familial competition. On the ocean side of the home is a private saltwater pool and a five-person hot tub that provide idyllic options for relaxation. An outdoor shower and separate half-bath by the pool are two amenities you’ll determine are a well-worth-it convenience. Step inside and discover a game room featuring a pool table, air hockey table, arcade video game, and a 65-inch Intelligent TV. Store some beverages in the full-size refrigerator in the adjacent wet bar and let the fun begin. Also, on this level are two of the home’s bedrooms: one with a pyramid bunk and another with two single beds that share a full hallway bathroom.

An all-floor elevator brings you to the next level where there are four more bedrooms - 1 king and 3 queens. Two are masters with private ensuite baths and oceanfront deck access and two share a full hallway bath. There’s also an oceanfront sitting room on this level that can serve as a vacation home office, a peaceful space to read or watch TV or burn a few calories on a new Peloton® Bicycle. The home’s final bedroom, a king master with a private ensuite bath and deck access, is located on the top level right next to the hub of the home. Here, leather couches offer prime sightlines to the great room’s entertainment center housing a 65-inch Intelligent TV and sound bar. A huge 10-seat dining table occupies prime real estate right in front of the deck sliders, accepting charming vistas to accompany your meals. You’ll adore preparing those meals in the roomy and well-equipped kitchen featuring a granite island, four-stool breakfast counter, gas range with a grille, and a convection oven. Bring your crew to LIVIN THE DREAM and discover how much you needed this.

How to get the best Hatteras rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your rental in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Hatteras area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides have money saving offers on nearby tours and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• Select dates and max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Oceanfront - Dog Friendly 7 Bedroom w\/ Pool, Hot Tub Elevator, and Game Room has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rentals search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property manager before you reserve the rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what is optimal for your vacation family.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your invoice.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas during check in. message the rental manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great feedback to inspire new reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
