OCEANFRONT Hatteras — With a calming palette of cool blues and simple touches that impart both purpose and panache in the details, JEKYLL’S HYDEOUT is the ideal home to cast away your daily routine for a splendidly calming one. Perched just a few steps from the shore and miles away from life back home, this seven-bedroom/seven-full and one-half-bath home offers four levels of inspired vacation living where entertaining, playing, relaxing, and sweet dreams all seamlessly coexist under one roof.

Beginning on the ground level, you’ll discover how simple it is to ease into your vacation with a pool, patio, hot tub, picnic area, and covered outdoor bar providing an inviting respite. Rinse off in the enclosed outdoor shower and head into the first-level game room for a competitive game of pool or to simply kick back with a cold drink from the wet bar while the TV keeps you posted on the latest scores. Next to the game room, a media room with a 54-inch plasma TV keeps the kids enthralled as they pile onto a giant modular couch to watch their favorite movies. There are two bedrooms on this level, too, one with a pyramid bunk that shares a bath with the game room and a queen master bedroom with its own bath and access to a deck.

Take the convenient elevator up to the first level and find four more queen master bedrooms. The final bedroom, a king master bedroom, is located on the second level. All of these bedrooms feature private baths, ceiling fans, TVs and deck access to appreciate the ocean breezes and the sound of waves tumbling ashore. It’s also on this level that you’ll discover that memories-in-the-making come comfortably as your family and friends savor game nighttime and some TV time in the open and airy great room, prepare meals in the roomy kitchen, and share them around a 10-seat dining table, with additional seats available at the kitchen counter. End your evening on the ocean-facing deck as the moon rises to join a starlit sky. Book JEKYLL’S HYDEOUT; there’s no hiding it’s where you need to be.

New for 2024: New home décor including quilts, art, and lamps in all but one bedroom. New art and throw pillows in the theater room. New interior paint. New barstools at the outside bar.

Tips and Tricks for getting the best vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. Book your Hatteras rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides have discounts for nearby tours and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking the rightvacation home:

• Choose vacation week and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Oceanfront Dog Friendly Home with Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room, and Elevator has 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible online. Otherwise, reach out to the property owner before reserving the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? 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. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or applied to your invoice.

During your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Document any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of issues.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-out, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to drive future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
