OCEANFRONT Avon – Kinnakeet Shores – A picture of blue matching the ocean it faces, SOUTHERN EXPOSURE is the kind of vacation home that immediately makes you feel you’ve made the right pick for your family. The seven bedroom/five-and one-half-bath home is elegantly furnished and decorated to complement its oceanside surroundings. There’s a ideal balance of restful and recreational opportunities. Finest of all, the beach and the Atlantic’s glorious waves are just a brief boardwalk walk away.
There are so many choices to make! Start the day by warming up with a little hoop action out front. When you’re ready to cool down, take a dip in the ocean or in the ground level oceanfront pool. Now it’s time to warm things up again ... the adjacent hot tub stands ready to give your tired muscles a relaxing break. Or heat up the gas grille and prepare up a lunch to appreciate around the picnic table. When the competitive mindset kicks in again, head inside to the entertainment/game room for a round or two of pool, maybe stopping to fix yourself a snack in the kitchenette. Just off this room is a double bunk bedroom and bath, decorated to delight the kids. Four more bedrooms occupy the first level, one master with an ensuite bath, three with access to a deck and the symphony of waves to lull you to sleep, and the fourth with access to its own private screened in porch.
The upper level is a enormous space to entertain your grandiose plans of family camaraderie. Here you’ll find a astounding sun deck with plenty of new Polywood® chairs to savor your coffee as the sun makes its ascent over the horizon. There’s a well-equipped kitchen that can effortlessly accommodate more than one prepare at mealtime. Gather around the eat-at kitchen counter or the 10-seat dining table for those meals that happily and hungrily bring everybody together. As the evening winds down, retire to the great room to catch up on your favorite shows on the sizable flat-screen TV or to the two master king bedrooms, both complete with oceanfront vistas and one that also has its own private deck with vistas of the sound, that are conveniently on this level. Need a private escape or a peaceful place to work? Climb the stairs to the tower loft area where a workstation with WiFi obliges your needs. The 360-degree vistas are simply icing on the cake.
The home is dog friendly and up to two furry friends are welcome. Please note that there is no landline so be sure to bring your mobile chargers. Expose your family to a vacation you will always remember when you book SOUTHERN EXPOSURE today.

Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Avon rental home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer months are high season in the Hatteras area. Book your rental in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 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.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitors guides which will include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Narrow your Search:

• Choose your vacation dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Oceanfront Dog Friendly Home with Pool, Hot Tub, and Game Room has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If not, email the property owner before you book your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or might be applied to your agreement.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the host's contact information to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Note any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect your property!
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to drive new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
