The Tip Sea Mermaid is a entirely modernized beach home in Salvo located on a corner lot just 200 feet from the shining Atlantic Ocean. While the interior of this oceanside getaway is top-notch, it's the outdoor areas that will really make your next vacation one for the books. From the multiple decks and hot tub to the roomy backyard with fire pit, there are plenty of opportunities for spending quality time with family and friends. Parlor in the sun and appreciate an ocean view from the broad rooftop observation deck, or relax in the shade with a good book on the screened-in porch. Either way, you'll feel the invigorating salty breezes and hear the sound of crashing waves. When it's time to hit the beach, use the Quay Street public access located just a three-min. walk from the home. Load up the beach cart to conveniently transport your coolers, toys and gear for a full day of sun, sand and surf. Inside, this classic bungalow has been completely refreshed and furnished with beach-lovers in mind. Upgrades include a brand new kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, an refreshed primary bath with bespoke tile work, and LVP floor that runs throughout the entire home. Thoughtful design choices like shiplap walls, fun accent colors and coastal-themed wallpaper all tie together for that modern beach home vibe. Outside, a sizable fenced-in backyard is ideal for cookouts and yard games. In the evenings, gather the family around the fire pit to plan the next day's adventures, or relax with a calming soak in the hot tub before heading off to bed. Bed and bath linens are always included at no additional charge, and the beds will be made with fresh sheets and pillowcases prior to your arrival. The Tip Sea Mermaid is located in Hatteras Colony on the northern end of Salvo, where the pristine beaches are wide and uncrowded.

Slightly farther north you'll find even more dining and shopping options in the town of Rodanthe.

Strategies to get the best Hatteras vacation property experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• In the Hatteras area, The earlier your group can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guide magazines which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your rental Search:

• First, have your group choose a vacation week and a budget.
• 200ft. to Beach has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property manager before you reserve your home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a specific Hatteras destination you love, browse rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

During your stay:

• Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon your arrival. Get in touch with the property manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
