OCEANFRONT Avon- Private Drive A private drive off of Route 12 brings you to your Hatteras Island Retreat. Park next to the horseshoe pits or in the covered area under the home. On the ground level, accessible by outside entrance only, a game room greets you on the right featuring a pool table, enormous 47” LCD T.V., impressive sound system, and simple access to the huge in-ground pool. Of course the game room has a refrigerator, wet-bar, microwave (for those late nighttime popcorn snacks), a couch bed and full bath. Sliding doors provide entry to the Tiki bar and seating area overlooking the pool. Additional comfortable lounge and deck chairs and pool lighting will make this area a focal point of your stay. The saltwater pool provides additional comfort for swimming and other pool activities. In addition, a gas grille, picnic table and a cozy hot tub will regenerate you after a long day of adventuring on the Outer Banks. A full outdoor shower and multiple foot showers are available.

CASABLANCA sits back about 900 feet from the ocean protecting the home and pool but still offering painless access to the beach by way of a walkway and covered overlook. CASABLANCA is walking distance to Avon Fishing Pier, eateries, and shopping.

The mid-level of the home has two king master bedrooms each with their private full bath. They share a common covered balcony overlooking the pool and beach walkway, and a cozy swing that the kids will adore. Three more bedrooms are available on this level, two with bunk beds and the third with queen bed is located next to the full hall bath. All the rooms are equipped with TV/DVD to watch that movie from bed that you discovered in the movie library on the top floor of the home.

An open, airy, roomy feel greets you on the top level with vaulted ceilings. Windows on the front, back and both sides of the home bring in sunny, breezy air. You may just want to turn the A/C off and savor the breezes. The top floor breakfast nook can accommodate that late-riser with eggs, bacon, pancakes and juice. Or it can be a place where the kids and adults appreciate a game that they found in the handy game chest. A huge, well-equipped kitchen will delight any prepare and there is plenty of seating flexibility for the entire group from the sizable dining table, to host memorable dinners, to the handy kitchen bar for sandwiches and snacks. After dinner, kick back in front of the 50” LCD TV and sound system with Netflix (on the Roku) and cable or step out onto the oceanfront balcony overlooking the pool and ocean with constructed-in seating on the sides. A week at CASABLANCA will leave you with a summer full of memories and want for a return visit in the near future! This home does not have a landline.

Tips for getting the best Hatteras vacation property experience:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• To get the best value, shift your family's Hatteras vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning, selecting, and booking the bestrental:

• Choose your dates and budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Oceanfront Dog Friendly Home in Avon- Pool, Hot Tub, Game Rm, Boardwalk to Beach has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• Is your family looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, hosts charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Record any damages to the rental 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 arises.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your life at home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on great ratings to propel new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
