OCEANFRONT Waves — Sea Vista Dr. — If having your head in the clouds on a sunny beach surrounded by your favorite people sounds like the ideal vacation, then MOTHER OF WAVES is the ideal place to hit pause and let it happen. Perched on the edge of the ocean dunes, this seven-bedroom/six- and one-half bath oceanfront home is an ideal family heaven providing tons of space — both personal and communal — that accepts everybody to discover their own comfort zone.

Upon arrival, unload the car into the convenient cargo lift and relax with a first-day dip in the invigorating private pool. Stretch your legs with a walk along the beach, perhaps catching a pod of dolphins at play. Return to refresh with an outdoor shower and a renewed ambition to cue up a billiards challenge in the ground-level game room featuring a pool table, kitchenette with wet bar and full-size refrigerator, high-top bar and a giant Roku TV. There’s a washer/dryer on this level, too, along with a pyramid bunk (with trundle) room for the kids and a king master bedroom.

Four more bedrooms occupy the second level. Two are king masters with ensuite baths and two additional king bedrooms share a hallway bath. One has a work desk and provides access to the deck and a six-person hot tub where you can appreciate a calming soak as the day morphs into a starlit nighttime. All of the bedrooms feature Roku TVs.

The third level is a bright, soaring space brilliantly designed to bring everybody together. Here you’ll find a fantastic oceanfront deck with plenty of seating to savor your coffee as the sun rises over the horizon in the morning and drinks as it sets later in the evening. There’s a half-bath, a sunroom, and a well-equipped kitchen that can comfortably accommodate more than one prepare at mealtime. Gather around the eat-at kitchen counter with four stools or the 12-seat dining table for those meals that last well into the nighttime; then move the action to the great room to catch up on your favorite shows on the sizable Roku TV. If the kids are bored with your choice of programming, there’s a additional space on the fourth level with another TV, a foosball table, and a pyramid bunk. The seventh bedroom, a king master with a private deck and in-room Whirlpool® tub overlooking the ocean is also located on this level.

MOTHER OF WAVES is dog friendly and up to two furry friends are welcome. It also offers the added amenities of access to the St. Waves community pool and tennis courts and close proximity to the Rodanthe Pier. Don’t let this one get away, book it today.

Getting the best Waves vacation property experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Waves. Book your Hatteras vacation home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain coupons for nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• First, have your family select a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. The Mother of Waves! Oceanview Dog Friendly w\/ Pool, Hot Tub, Cmty Pool + Tennis has 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is usually available online. If you don't see them listed, call the host before you book your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

Advice for your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• During check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective 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 feedback.
