SOUNDSIDE Salvo – Wind Over Waves – Easing into your vacation is like a day at the beach at SPITTIN’ KITTY, a seven bedroom/seven full- and one-half-bath home located in an modren community of gracious homes that share a 100-foot pier and boat ramp on Pamlico Sound. The ocean is close and comfortably walkable, too, making this home the rare gem that fulfills everybody’s vacation wish list, including up to two dogs, who are welcome.

Arrive, park and conveniently transport your suitcases and groceries into the home via a convenient elevator. Note the backyard volleyball net and get motivated for some heated action that is rewarded by a cool down in the private swimming pool. Fix yourself a drink at the screened-in poolside tiki bar and hit the four-person hot tub for a calming soak. The outdoor facilities also include a full outdoor bath with a shower and toilet, a convenience you’ll find rather useful.

If the competitive spirit follows you into the home, you’ll be delighted by a first level game room that features a pool table, flat screen TV and a full-size refrigerator, and dishwasher. Also on this level is a theater room with a leather couch and a sizable flat screen TV. Pulling the kids away from here may seem like a challenge, but when they have their own bedroom with two sets of bunk beds and a private bath, they may surprise you. There is also a queen bedroom on this level, featuring a flat screen TV and private access to the back deck. A shared full bathroom and a full-sized washer/dryer complete this level. Four more primary ensuite bedrooms occupy the second level — three kings and one queen (with an accessible bathroom) — each with a flat screen TV and two of which offer access to a semi-wrap-around deck to savor the sound sunsets and cross ocean breezes.

The third level is the heart of the home that beats to the rhythm of your family’s comings and goings. Gather around the breakfast bar with your first morning cup of coffee to plan out your day. The kitchen behind it is roomy and well-equipped to efficiently feed a crowd. There’s room for everybody to sit together at the 14-seat dining table and appreciate the appointed chef’s creations. A great room provides plenty of comfortable seating to kick back for some intelligent TV watching and the re-telling of family lore. There’s also a half-bath on this level, as well as a striking king master suite, complete with a hottub tub and private deck access to wish upon a starlit sky before drifting off to sleep. Book SPITTIN’ KITTY today and that’s one wish that can come true without a star in sight.

Our top Rodanthe rental home tips and tricks:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Summer time is high season in Rodanthe. To find the best value, try shifting your family's Hatteras vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Hatteras area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides have deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing the perfect rental in Rodanthe:

• Begin by choosing the best vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Soundside Dog Friendly Home with Pool, Hot Tub, Basketball and Volleyball Net has 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property owner before booking your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation family.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Is your family looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Know before you go:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your visit, record any problem areas upon check in. text the rental manager immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to inspire more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
