OCEANFRONT Avon – Since ancient times, mariners have relied on the steadfast Stella Maris — the North Star — to guide them on their seafaring journeys. In much the same way, STELLA MARIS, a five-bedroom/four-bath home perched on the ocean’s edge, is a beacon for the relaxing hideaway you seek. This freshly refreshed home uniquely blends a local sense of place with a cool modern design that instantly envelopes you in comfort and contentment. On the ground level, there is room to park two cars underneath the home so that they are protected from the elements. Avid anglers will note the fish cleaning station with water and lights, a new private outdoor shower, and a gas grille. A set of steps up to the first level leads you to four of the bedrooms: A king bedroom with an ensuite bath and oceanfront deck access; two queens and a pyramid bunk with trundle. All of the home’s bedrooms with the exception of one queen features Roku streaming TVs. Two hallway baths with tiled showers conveniently accommodate the post-beach rush. A six-person hot tub located on the oceanfront deck is covered to accommodate calming soaks with stellar vistas no matter the weather. On the upper level, another king master suite reveals a modernized ensuite bath and deck access. It’s what is outside of this private space, though, that will capture your imagination: a modern great room where soaring ceilings, sky-high windows and industrial-chic décor bring your family together with an undeniably cool vibe. A roomy kitchen with granite countertops, stainless appliances and a useful breakfast bar makes vacation-style cooking a enjoyment. Savor those meals at a long 10-seat dining table or just outside at a picnic table on the deck. If a TV program compels you to turn away from the charming beach vistas, the living room features a enormous-screen Roku-enabled LCD TV that can be viewed from an broad sectional couch. Yet, if you can’t get enough of those vistas, decks on both the ocean and western-facing sides of the home invite you to appreciate the many sides of nature’s beauty, from sunrise to sunset. Navigate your way to your next memorable hideaway by booking STELLA MARIS today.

Strategies for getting the best Avon vacation property experience:

When to book a Hatteras rental home & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in Avon. Book your Hatteras rental property in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, 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 family and friends at the beach.
• Some property managers offer special rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides contain deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Selecting and booking your prefectrental home:

• Choose vacation dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Oceanfront Home with Hot Tub, Grill, and Stellar Ocean Views has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before booking the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is best for your vacation.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or might be applied to your invoice.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your visit, record any problem areas during check in. Contact the host right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Most rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
