SOUNDSIDE Avon — W. Sunfish Ct. — New for 2024! — The ideal blend of idyllic Cape Cod appeal and Hatteras Island coastal comfort? Yes, please! BEACH DAY RETREAT, a distinctive three-bedroom/two-bath bungalow delivers on both with loads of family-friendly amenities to inspire a carefree and memorable hideaway.

It’s painless to spot the pitched, red-roofed home as you pull into the peaceful cul-de-sac in Avon Village. Bring your dog and favorite yard games ... a cavernous, grassy lawn is ideal for both. Your kids will adore the bicycle-friendly neighborhood and you’ll appreciate the gated area under the home to keep younger kids, dogs, and your watersport equipment safe and secure. There’s also an outdoor shower and wash sink here for an simple beach day cleanup. A few steps up to the first level reveals BEACH DAY RETREAT’S main living space including a great room that features an inviting couch and chairs as well as a Intelligent TV. A section of the coffee table pops up to provide a great workstation for those who can’t escape computer time. The kitchen, outfitted with portable Bluetooth® speakers so you can stream your favorites from wherever you may be, is well-equipped to accommodate your favorite vacation meals that can be served at the four-stool kitchen counter, at a six-person table in the sunroom, and another counter that seats four. Two bedrooms - a freshly furnished queen and one with two single bunk beds - are also located on this level and share a hallway full bath. The third bedroom, an ensuite king featuring a private bath is located on the second level along with a media room with wood-beamed cathedral ceilings, a roomy sectional couch, a Intelligent TV, and a bookcase loaded with books, games, and puzzles. There is also access to a second-level deck through the top level with stairs connecting it to the main deck. All of the bedrooms feature Intelligent TVs.

BEACH DAY RETREAT’s ideal location puts you within a bicycle ride or less than a 10-min. walk to the ocean beaches, and you pass a crowd favorite, Dairy Queen, on the way. Favorite local eateries of Avon Village and the Pamlico Sound’s opportunities for watercraft adventures are right around the corner. Guests of BEACH DAY RETREAT also have access to the Kinnakeet Shores community pool and tennis courts. But it may be the home’s fantastic sun decks that will draw you in to relax in the 6-person hot tub, sink into an Adirondack chair with a good book, or soak in those vitamin D rays.

Booking the best vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your rental property in the Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• 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 grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• Choose dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Soundside, Dog Friendly Home with Hot Tub and Community Pool & Tennis Courts has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before you book the property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Document any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
