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 grand 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 roomy 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 elegant 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 appreciate to prepare and entertain. Savor 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.

How to get the best Hatteras vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in Hatteras. Book your Hatteras rental property in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, rental management companies supply Hatteras area visitor guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to select the best vacation rental:

• Select vacation dates and max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Oceanfront Hatteras - Private Swimming Pool, Hot Tub, Elevator, Game Room has 7 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before booking the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what is suitable for your group.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges might be applied to your agreement.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

More considerations:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• Upon check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your life at home. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
