SEMI-SOUNDFRONT Salvo — Wind Over Waves — New for 2024! — With the grace of a mermaid and the heart of a lion, MERLION HAVEN pulls off the ideal balance as a sanctuary of calm and a base for energetic pursuits. Located in an fresh community of fashonable homes that share a 100’ pier and boat ramp on Pamlico Sound, this six-bedroom/seven-full and one-half bath home is walkable to the ocean beach. The sound and its draw for kiteboarders and windsurfers is effortlessly within reach, too. This is a place where minds soar and life flourishes.
Choosing which body of water to spend your days must include the private pool, surrounded by a picnic table and plenty of new chaise lounges. Work up a sweat shooting hoops at the basketball goal then cool off in the outdoor shower before ratcheting up the competition in the ground level game room. Shoot pool for a while, then wind down with a snack and drink you’ve fixed in the wet bar before watching the Intelligent TV in the den area. There’s also a full bath and laundry facilities on this level.
Five of the home’s bedrooms occupy the first level. Three of the bedrooms are ensuite queens, two of which have access to the deck. There’s also an ensuite king, along with a bunk room with access to the deck and a full bathroom in the hallway. The final bedroom, an ensuite king, is located on the second level and has direct access to a 4-person hot tub and upper deck. All of the bedrooms feature TVs and new décor.
Entertain your sizable plans for making family memories — or entertaining visiting friends — in the very roomy great room, located on the top level. There’s a well-equipped kitchen that can conveniently accommodate more than one prepare at mealtime. Gather around the eat-at kitchen counter that seats four, outside at the picnic table, or the 10-seat dining table that brings everybody together for leisurely meals and laughter. As the evening winds down, retire to the comfortable sectional to catch up on your favorite shows on the huge flat-screen Intelligent TV or onto the deck for vistas of the sound that never fail to make a memorable impression. You can impress, too, by booking MERLION HAVEN for a vacation your family will always remember.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect rental experience:
How to get the best rental home value:
- Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To book the best rental home within budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Hatteras restaurants, tours, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter 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 loved ones at the beach.
- Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
- Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a discount.
- Property management companies typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay 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 evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
- Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitors guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.
Planning, selecting, and booking the perfect Hatteras rental:
- Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
- Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Semi-Soundfront in Salvo w\/ Private Pool, Hot Tub, and Game Room has 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
- Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you reserve the property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
- Visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
- Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
- Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or costs may be applied to your agreement.
Some things to know before you go:
- Take a copy of the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
- To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's stay, note any problem areas upon your arrival. Contact the host right away to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
- Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of concerns.
- Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
- Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
- Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
- At departure, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
- Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
- Did your family have a fantastic stay? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
