OCEANFRONT Hatteras — Lighthouse Ct. — New for 2024! — It’s time to feel good when you live out your vacation dreams at WALKIN’ ON SUNSHINE – HATTERAS, a impressive seven-bedroom/seven-full and three-half-bath home perched on the ocean’s edge. Only grassy dunes separate you from the sun-dappled surf, a vision that teases you from every window and leaves an imprint on your memory long after you leave.

Imagine bringing multiple generations of your family together in this cavernous home, thoughtfully designed with accessible-friendly features like an all-floor elevator and a roll-in shower. You’ll begin to unload your cares as soon as you unload your car in the dry-entry carport and take stock of the home’s enviable amenities. A semi-private boardwalk will have you walkin’ on sunshine to the beach, although the fenced-in private pool may edge out the surf for the first dip in the water. Here, there are plenty of loungers to settle in for a poolside nap, two outdoor showers, and a fish cleaning station with water and lights that will delight the avid anglers among you. Take a break from the sun — but not the fun — in the ground-level game room, complete with a pool table, foosball table, arcade console with Nickelodeon games, shuttle bowling, and TV, as well as a sleeper couch and wet bar with microwave and full-size refrigerator. Keep an eye on the poolside action from a slider that opens onto an broad covered deck that also reveals an 8-person hot tub. There is a half-bath just off the game room.

Three of the home’s ensuite bedrooms are also on this level: a king master featuring dual vanities, a shower, and jetted tub, and a queen master with an accessible-friendly shower both feature TVs and access to the covered deck. A third bedroom offers a set of double-over-double bunk beds, a single bunk, and a TV, making it the ideal kid zone. Three more bedrooms, all with TVs, occupy the first level, including two king master bedrooms and another ensuite bedroom with a double-over-double bunk set with a trundle. Also on this level is a half-bath, laundry facilities and an entertainment area featuring a 65-inch TV and a sizable sectional couch so everybody can appreciate movie nights together. Sliders from this space open onto a deck where a whole other set of stars put on an Oscar-worthy show.

The final bedroom, a king master, offers a opulent bath with dual vanities, shower, and a jetted tub, as well as access to an ocean view sundeck. This extravagant escape is just steps from the great room, where an airy open layout brings everybody together for those indelible vacation moments. A beautiful kitchen featuring two ovens, two sinks, dual microwaves, dual dishwashers, a enormous refrigerator, stand-alone ice maker, wine cooler, granite countertops, and breakfast bar seating for eight will impress those who adore to prepare and entertain. Appreciate the fruits of the chef’s labor in a dining room that accommodates 24. Fill the evening out by choosing from the library of 300 DVDs to watch on the TV, games and conversation in the great room or out on the covered porch where two porch swings rock you into blissful contentment. Watching the moon rise will remind you why booking WALKIN’ ON SUNSHINE – HATTERAS was the best decision you ever made.

Our top Vacation rental booking tips:

Finding your perfect rental:

• To book the best vacation home within your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Hatteras restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many management companies supply Hatteras area visitors guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. Oceanfront Hatteras - Private Swimming Pool, Hot Tub, Elevator, Game Room has 8 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking pages. If not, email or call the property owner before you book the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what is optimal for your vacation.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Are you bringing the family pet? 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. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or costs applied to your contract.

Tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• At Check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your life at home. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
