OCEANFRONT Hatteras – The tide may ebb and flow, but time has a way of standing still at TIME AND TIDE, a splendid cedar shake home perched on Hatteras Island’s pristine seashore and located within walking distance to close by eateries, stores, and walking and cycling trails. Wide, newly furnished verandas reveal spectacular vistas as far as the eye can see from this seven-bedroom/six full- and two half-bath home where your family can settle into a vacation destined to inscribe a new chapter of memories. Multi-generational families will appreciate the home’s ability to accommodate older family members, especially with the all-level elevator, an entry-way ramp and a first-level King ocean front bedroom with deck access and a semi-private bathroom which features a roll-in shower with a folding bench seat. The first level also reveals another bedroom with two double full beds; a half-bath; and a game room that offers a sports bar vibe with a pool table, three Intelligent TVs and a wet bar with full-size refrigerator and microwave to keep drinks and snacks at the ready. A slider just off this kitchenette reveals a covered deck hosting a six-person hot tub. Just below it, an broad paver patio surrounding a dune-protected pool offers hours of family fun under the sun or in the shade of a pergola.

The second level encompasses four primary bedrooms, all with Intelligent TVs and private baths. There are two oceanfront king master bedrooms, one with a Jacuzzi tub, that have access to a covered deck. Another king master and a double full master complete this level. The final bedroom, an ensuite king that features a Jacuzzi tub and spa-like bespoke-tiled shower is located on the third level, close to the action that unfolds in the home’s great room, dining and kitchen areas. Here, wood beamed vaulted ceilings and plenty of natural light create a space where interaction and conversation find a natural and painless-going flow. Avid cooks will adore the well-supplied kitchen, complete with two dishwashers, microwave, wet bar sink, six-burner gas range, huge refrigerator for all of your groceries and a breakfast bar. Serve the feasts you prepare in the cavernous dining room where the ocean provides a elegant backdrop. It’s simple to sink into the living area’s comfortable seating for some after-dinner Intelligent TV watching and even easier to feel the lure of the upper-level deck. Sit to reminisce about the day or plot out the next one as the nighttime sky fills with stars. TIME AND TIDE waits for no one. Book it today!

Tips and Tricks to get the best rental home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Hatteras. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring is a great way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain discounts for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

How to select the best vacation rental in the Hatteras area:

• Begin by choosing the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Oceanfront Handicap Friendly House w\/ Private Pool, Hot Tub, and Elevator has 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's an individual Hatteras attraction you long to visit, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Record any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable 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.
