OCEANFRONT Hatteras – The tide may ebb and flow, but time has a way of standing still at TIME AND TIDE, a pretty 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, freshly 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 adore 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 appreciate 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 grand 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 for getting the perfect Hatteras vacation rental experience:

When to go & When to reserve a rental home:

• Summer time is high season in Hatteras. Reserve your rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• In the Hatteras area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Owners sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking your prefect Hatteras vacation home:

• Begin by choosing potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Oceanfront Handicap Friendly House w\/ Private Pool, Hot Tub, and Elevator has 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your family.
• Is your family looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• 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. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs might be applied to your contract.

More tips for your visit:

• Get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Call the rental manager right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
