SOUNDFRONT Salvo — Located in a private harborside community, HARBORMASTER’S sound front location is ideal for the whole family. From the moment you step foot on the property, you will be welcomed by spectacular vistas of the sound that will immediately set the tone for your vacation. The water is just steps from the property. Whether you want to swim, fish or kayak in the sound, savor the private pool and hot tub, relax inside in the media room, play cards and appreciate billiards in the game room, this handsome 4,332 sq. ft. home is ideal for multi-generational families as each bedroom has a private bath and all but one offer private decks to enjoy peaceful moments of solitude. HARBORMASTER has something for all ages and provides just what is needed to appease the desires of both the restful and the restless.

Ample parking, a covered carport and a main level entrance provides painless access to a home that also offers an all-floor elevator to move about with ease. A soundfront 12’x25’ pool is surrounded by a paved deck with the option to plant a chair in both shade and sun. Nearby, a six-person hot tub stands ready to soothe after a great day on the water; an outdoor shower offers the means to cool them down. Step outside the gate and discover a waterfront lawn for kids to play, the dog to run and the ideal place to watch kiteboarders gliding across the sound. When you are ready to be entertained inside, the ground level also offers a media room featuring a 70-inch Intelligent TV with surround sound and brand-new plush leather seating; and a game room with a pool table, wet bar, card table, half-bath and deck overlooking the pool.

Take the stairs or the elevator to the second level where four of the home’s bedrooms provide calming escapes. A queen master bedroom offers an accessible bathroom. There’s a king master with soaker tub and private deck; a king master with a tub/shower combination and private deck; and another king master with private deck. All of the home’s bedrooms feature Intelligent TVs. A convenient laundry area is also located on this level.

The third level is the center that will draw your family together for those vacation moments you’ll recall for years to come. Cook up family favorites in the pretty chef’s kitchen featuring stainless appliances, ice maker, tiled backsplash and an broad eat-at kitchen counter with three stools. Dine casually here or at the two dining tables that provide multiple options for sharing meals and memories. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself pulled between settling into the great room couches for an evening of channel surfing or out onto the deck as the sun begins its mesmerizing descent below the sound’s horizon. Also on this floor is a workstation to accommodate your needs when work follows you on vacation and a half-bath. Another laundry area and two more bedrooms occupy the fourth level: a king master with ensuite bath and private deck access; and a master bunk room featuring a queen/queen and single/single, also with ensuite bath and private deck access. You won’t want to miss the sunrise and a view of the ocean from the fourth floor and the spectacular sunsets that will take your breath away.

Getting the best Hatteras rental experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Salvo rental home:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To book the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Hatteras restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Finding the best rental home in Salvo:

• Select your vacation dates and budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Soundfront Dog Friendly w\/ Pool, Hot Tub, Elevator, Game Rm, & Cmty Boat Slips has 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible online. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is best for your family.
• Are you bringing the family pet? 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 agreement! Extra fees or may be applied to your agreement.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. 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 group have a great vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
