SEMI-OCEANFRONT Waves — Sea Isle Hills Ct. — New for 2025! — Discover your inner tranquility at ZEN, a six-bedroom/five-full and one-half-bath haven where both ocean and sound vistas diverge from the tranquility to compete for your attention. Bring your extended family, your friends, and even your pup — this roomy, dog-friendly home is your connection to the allure of the Outer Banks and each other.

The home’s location at the end of a cul-de-sac provides a ideal reason to bring your bicycles for exploring the neighborhood. Ease into a more calming rhythm at the sandy beach, accessible by a dune trail just across the street, or settle into a lounge chair around the private pool, with outdoor speakers setting the mood from a favorite playlist. Escapism extends to the inside of the home, too, where a first level game room features classic arcade games, a foosball table, wet bar, and a theater room featuring a 65-inch Intelligent TV that entices you to settle in with a movie. Just off the game room is a slider that leads to an elevated deck, housing a six-person hot tub waiting to melt your worries away.

Also, on the first level are two of the home’s bedrooms including a king master and a room with two bunkbeds, in addition to a half-bath. The remaining bedrooms, including two king masters, a queen, and room with two single beds, are located on the second level along with a full hallway bathroom. All of the bedrooms are equipped with 40-inch Intelligent TVs with streaming capability. Most have access to covered decks to appreciate the coastal breezes and starlit skies.

On the upper level, soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows create a light-filled ambiance in the great room, inviting families to relax and reconnect. The cavernous, well-equipped kitchen features a four-seat breakfast table, providing a casual dining option in addition to the ten-seat dining table. A huge, comfortable leather sectional in the great room offers prime viewing for the new 65-inch Intelligent TV. However, you might find yourself drawn away from the screen to the adjacent furnished deck and crow’s nest, especially as the sun dips below the horizon and the stars begin their celestial performance. What could be more ZEN than that? For peace of mind, and book it today.

Strategies to get the best Hatteras vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• To find the best value, try shifting your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warm weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines contain deals for local accommodations and attractions.

How to select the perfect rental:

• Select your vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Semi-Oceanfront, Dog Friendly Home in Waves With Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the host before booking the home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges applied to your contract.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peace. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a great vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
