SEMI-OCEANFRONT Waves - Sea Isle Hills - Step away from the hustle and bustle of the city and into the calming island life. Just a private boardwalk from the beach THE HATTERAS HOME will instantly put you in vacation mode. Wide decks greet you at the door, where you can step inside to the first level game room with pool table, wet bar with refrigerator, and a media area with theater seating and TV. Spend some time in the gorgeously landscaped pool area and take a dip in the outdoor private pool with poolside Tiki bar or take a break in the bubbly hot tub located on the first level deck. Head inside to choose from one of two bedrooms on this level: a queen master and a queen bedroom with painless access to the full hall bath. On the second level, find three more bedrooms, including a king master, and a queen bedroom and a bedroom with two singles, each with simple access to the full hall bath. Nearby is a laundry area with a standalone freezer for the day's catch. Memories are made with family gatherings in the top level living area with floor to ceiling windows and enormous flat screen TV. Step out onto the deck to take in the ocean breezes with a cup of coffee from the Keurig in the kitchen or have an after-dinner chat in the screened porch. Just around the corner, you'll find the private dining area and huge kitchen, as well as a half bath and second laundry area. There's also a roomy king master bedroom on this level. Head to the loft area with impressive vistas of the sound and ocean. Sit back and relax in THE HATTERAS HOME. (Fireplace seen in photos is not available for guest use.)

Strategies to get the very best rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your Hatteras vacation home in the Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guides which will include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing and booking the perfectvacation home:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Semi-Oceanfront - Dog Friendly, Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Add the owner's phone number to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Note any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• At departure, complete a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
